"rainbow convention") which is a weekend-long event(October
18-19th,2014) designed to highlight the increasing and driving
presence of the LGBT community in manga and anime as well as
comics, books, and television without a Japanese influence. Nijicon
will be taking place in King of Prussia, PA(just outside
Philadelphia) and will feature special guests, fan-hosted panels,
vendors, artists, and screenings of popular LGBT movies, television
shows, and anime. There will also be a charity raffle in which all
proceeds will be donated to ME4PA(Marriage Equality for PA). All
attendees will also be getting a free manga just for
attending.</span></font></font></font></font>

believe that Nijicon could be the beginning of an event that the
anime community would greatly benefit from. No matter what our
race, religion, or sexuality we are, all geeks enjoy the
awesomeness that is comic books, cartoons, manga, and anime and
should have the opportunity to display that love in a safe
environment. And while there are other conventions like ours in
other parts of the country, Nijicon is the first one to take place
in the North Eastern U.S. We believe that this is a major oversight
since large cities located in this region—like Philadelphia, New
York, Washington D.C., and Boston(just to name a few) proudly host
such diverse populations.</span></font></font></font></font></div>
