AmeChibi 2025
AmeChibi 2025 brings you a celebration of the Golden era of VHS, when anime was imported, games were in arcades and the Video Room was king.
Join us for an exciting weekend of events old and new(ish) as we celebrate big anime eyes and bigger anime hair. Enjoy classic shows and music, and talk about subtitles in the era before dubs and lament over how Naruto is a 22 year old classic now.
We hope to see you there!
