Anime Expo AX 2023 Full Walkthrough Walking Tour Video [4k] [Stabilized]

[@liamwilson7549]

One day I’ll go to one of these… I just am a very quiet person so I don’t feel well around a lot of people but my passion of anime is one of the few things that keeps me living

[@JackDemons]

Follow your dreams, even if you fail, try again. If you don't, you might regret it someday but also don't beat yourself up! :D

[@Wolfblade243]

Went there for the first time this year. Very expensive to fly to LA! Expo was fun but it's very very very exhausting. I spent more time waiting in line than anything else.

[@The_Savage_Wombat]

You're tougher than you think you are.

[@JaylonLewis-bq6ty]

​@@Wolfblade243 i wish i had firends who likes anime vtubers and has been to twitchcons and anime expo but i dont sadly

How Japan turn Los Angeles up side down. How people build for over 50years of hard work in Japan in evolution the Manga industries. Look how many fans gather make me want to respect Japan with their idea. As a man grow up in the 90's, i will say thank you for being there for my childhood.

[@twist58]

I’m always at AX on Day 1, but usually don’t stick around for the remaining days due to work back home in Southern California. However, what I love most about AX on the first day is their AMV contest. I always attend that because I also participate in them. Been doing so since 2012.

[@itskko]

i've only been to Anime Boston and I thought that was nice. Damn Anime Expo is fucking huge, I need to go next year

[@evan51298]

You can take pictures with cosplayers, do pictures near anime statues, play crane machines, buy outfits, buy poster art, buy trading cards, buy plushies, buy pins, buy figurines, buy manga, play arcade games, watch dance performances, watch vtuber streams, watch a competitive video game, play a demo game, and eat at food stands/trucks. It is basically a shopping district.

[@llamapartyy]

it's like Akihabara

[@amtra1778]

yes, the original main point are the anime premiere and panels though

[@no_suk9851]

the glizzys are the best thing you'll ever have but you'll have food poisoning for like 5 days be warned

[@maji-lmfao]

You're a liar, there's no cosplayers in a shopping district

[@Graestra]

@@maji-lmfao there are in akihabara

[@mkdesu]

2:03 this guy with the trekking bag is smart. the load is reduced which makes it easier for events like these with lots of walking and ur planning to buy a good amount of stuff with you.

[@NeptuneNoire]

Thanks for filming! This will be my first time going this year and I'm already feeling overwhelmed lol. This makes Sac-Anime feel so small compared to this.

[@fightronin3753]

So cool!!!! Great video man!!!!

[@arielbalangue6489]

Now this is a safe place to have fun

[@potato2097]

Wow. So that what it looks like. Thank you.

You're welcome! Stick around for more walkthrough videos :)

I’m going next year! Cheers to 2024

[@weegee9k656]

I'm very excited to go for my first time next year, I've been wanting to go for a while

[@wordyblerd7723]

There's something really soothing about this video, I love a good pop culture con. I want to go to an anime one soon.

[@animenewswire]

You should! Check for one in your area

[@jorgeparra1496]

49:08 I really wasn't expecting to hear "pulikitaca" song on Anime Expo 🤣🤣

[@animenewswire]

If you hear closely, you'll hear all sorts of crazy things

[@galaxy_kitten95]

I am hoping there’s improvement from the overcrowding from last year. This year will be me and a friend of mine’s first Anime Expo and first time traveling to LA. From the videos I’ve seen last year, it looked like a massive nightmare and I’m claustrophobic asf. Fingers crossed… please let things go smoothly. 😢

[@deedumeday518]

Your wish came true

[@galaxy_kitten95]

@@deedumeday518 It actually did. I just got back from attending day one and honestly, it was pretty great! Checking in with the badges was simple and me and my friend didn’t experience any lines. Also, the convention was even more spacious than we thought. So yeah. No complaints so far. ☺️

[@alcatrazvongola]

Thanks for the video! I'd love to go to Anime Expo someday, but I've heard about the crowding issues and high prices. Still would love to go for the experience!

[@apro_saiyan3939]

[@X3spec]

It's a very big venue.I wonder if everyone is coming from all over America.It's a great festival.I want to go too.

[@AIVANFRANCO]

I appreciate this I never went to an anime expo i did however go to the fitness expo once for the first time at a expo in general it was awesome but next year I’m going to AX no matter what also they need to lower prices and over selling.

[@animenewswire]

Its a hard balance between the amount of attendees and price of the badges.

[@amtra1778]

They literally have the fire department come and close off the Expo on day one because there's so many people, as well as bringing over voice actors, artists, animators, and original creators over from japan/all over the US, so the prices are fairly justified. There's many, MANY other anime cons that happen that are lower priced and smaller (Anime LA, AX Chibi, Crunchyroll Expo, etc.)

[@markherman1211]

That Takeda Kanryū cosplay was on point AF.

[@mandingobingo]

it was nice of Shaq to get this footage for us

[@leaaae4638]

I went in 2017 to 2019. Always by myself. I felt so lonely there :(

[@XxDeathxXchan]

Just a bit of a warning to everyone wanting to go to Anime Expo in the future, there has been a recent problem with Anime Expo over selling tickets to their event since last year. I have been going to Anime Expo since 2009 and every year it seemed like Anime Expo was getting a little more recognized and there were a little bit more people, and more recognizable cosplayers attending, however, I have never seen it this overcrowded in my life. The biggest issue was the line to go get your badge because Anime Expo has recently started mailing badges to those that want to attend, and then there's day zero where people can go pick up their badge a day before the con starts. I understand people are from out of town and are attending on the day of or something but that was usually their biggest issue. Now it seems like they're under staff, it's unorganized for cosplay gatherings, no one knows where anything is, and they're overselling tickets.

[@Chynx123]

they sell as much as what the city allows for occupancy limits. They have a permit and approval for this. You are correct that it is not organized. People are not spread to accommodate the limits but, that is not a requirement either.

[@LeedleLee457]

I went to AX 2022 for the first time and was shocked at how long the lines for anything was. 6+ hours to get badge/inside the venue, 1.5 hours to get a cup of ice coffee, 1 hour pre-lineup to get into panels. Over half of the convention itself was spent in line. Personally, I prefer smaller cons that are around 10k - 30k attendees. Big enough to have fun, but small enough to actually do stuff. AX gets over 250k people every year now.

[@CollectorsSanctum]

YOOOO!!!!! It's @Jimmy Zhang @47:41 and his boy Gabe! LOL they were prob making a video too!

[@40441gogo]

Nice catch 😂

[@animenewswire]

Why not 2024?

[@noctuslucis15]

don't let your memes become dreams. first thing you hear about the passes being on sell, let it be the first thing you buy, and ofc plane tickets if necessary

[@aewriter]

The Artist Alley was in the parking garage? Woah 😮

[@hungerxhunger]

I love going through most replayed LOL

[@FLIK510]

Always thought this would be a cool event to go to but looking at the crowd in this video has me convinced otherwise now

[@Iamkitkatbar]

I want to go to this next year

[@HtDProduction]

I wasnt expecting this many ppl ):

[@genghisquan]

I know it smell crazy in there

[@McWenisWenis]

Anime Midwest is pretty big here in Illinois too, but this is def looking like a worthy trip to take next time

[@animenewswire]

It definitely is 😲

[@Isteveh]

i would love to go to one of these if only it didnt feel like every single one of them was over sold for the amount of space, I was at new york comicon the last few years and its getting worse and worse but this event seemed like it was on a different level.

[@transfo47]

This will probably become your most viewed video. Nice work.

[@animenewswire]

Thanks! Just doing our job haha 😅

[@scribbliedoo]

I miss anime expo so much

[@AdamMalice]

What's so funny in the beginning, is that this person is entering from the EXIT entrance ! Literally entering from a spot you can not re-enter from. Insane how unsecure this event is ! I literally was able to get in with no bag check and they wouldn't even know what stuff I have in my bag lol.

[@animenewswire]

We informed the security staff before beginning the video and had additional-access badges. Regular attendees would not be able to do this

[@JJ.StayFit]

Going for the first time any do and donts

I would suggest noonish, because then you wouldn't have to be with the massive crowds but still have enough time to enjoy everything.

I used to go to these when I lived in SoCal but it's honestly like 98% soulless, mainstream, commercial stuff. There's very little here for the old-school anime fan, unfortunately.
