July 17, 2015 - (Phil Hossack / Winnipeg Free Press)  Ai-Kon, Manitoba's largest Japanese animation (anime) and Asian culture, convention will be held on July 17-19th at the RBC Convention Centre; the event runs around the clock from 12:00 pm on Friday, July 17, 2015 through to 4:00 pm on Sunday, July 19th, 2015. This year marks Ai-Kon's 14th year, bringing over a decade of their anime conventions to the city of Winnipeg. What started out as an event with only 500 in attendance, has grown to over 3000 people who attend annually. Those in attendance take part in the weekend's various festivities such as costume contests, video games, anime showings and various panels relating  to anime and Japanese culture. Attendees also get a chance to meet special guests working in the industry and ask them questions about their experiences. This year Ai-Kon will be welcoming the following guests: Eric Vale (Voice Actor), The 404s (Canadian Geek Improv Team), Greg Ayres (Voice Actor and DJ), Vickybunnyangel Cosplayer (Professional Canadian Cosplayer), Terri Hawkes (Voice Actress) and Ian Sinclair  (Voice Actor). Specific roles and guest information can be viewed at  http://www.ai-kon.org/guests. Ai-Kon (http://www.ai-kon.org) is Manitoba's largest anime convention. An all-ages event, the goal of Ai-Kon is the promotion of Japanese/Asian animation and culture to the public. Started in 2001 by a local anime club, Ai-Kon took a reorganizing hiatus in 2002. It returned in 2003 to become an autonomous event, run by an independent volunteer committee. "Ai" means "love" in Japanese, hence Ai-Kon's slogan "For the Love of Anime".
