"I was very impressed by the number of things to do at just about any given time of the day/night. The staff for the most part were very friendly and if I had a question, would answer it without grumbling. I liked the pj party from thursday. It was nice to have something to do the first night with a lot of other people instead of just going to panels or sitting in my room... All in all though, a GREAT con and I'm super excited for next year!"

Youmacon 2010 is a go. Metro Detroit's first and only anime convention is returning for its sixth year, and it's better than ever. Here at Youmacon, thousands of otaku from Michigan and beyond meet anime voice actors face to face, compete for masquerade and cosplay trophies, and shop for treasures of their favorite fandom. Youmacon's original events immerse you in the experience of becoming a Japanese chess piece in a game of shougi, leading a team to the Star in a live action Mario Party battle, and being served by maids in a relaxing cafe. And the fun never stops, because Youmacon provides all-night gaming and video programming, as well as a dedicated video/audio track featuring anime music videos and beyond. So let us exceed your expectations for the sixth time.
