Anime, All things Katsu

Speaking of Anime, there’s a big celebration in Washington DC this past weekend, Kastucon 12. On its website, the event is going to “full of the sights, sounds, experiences and all things Katsu that you love”. The Washington Post has a lengthy feature on Japanese Anime in the US.

Anime is getting trendy, with the proliferation of Sushi bars and Saketinis. The book version of Anime, Manga is gaining popularity, too. Young, mostly males, mostly urban professionals crowd Comics stores in Georgetown or Manhattan, get their pot of thrill.

For these Washingtonians, if you like Manga, check out
