About the event

Kestrel Cafe Anime Club is happening.

We want to get to know you, your fandoms, your favorite shows, your hot takes, your comfort anime, your unhinged opinions.

We’ll be watching anime, talking tropes, fanfics, Gundams, manga, and all the things that live rent-free in your brain.

Come hang out, be nerdy, be a little weird, and connect with people who get it. Lurkers are absolutely welcome.

You’ll be in a space that feels like an artist alley, with work from artists who’ve been at Otakon, Katsucon, and MAGFest.

We’ve got affordable snacks and cozy treats, and long tables perfect for arguing OTPs, sharing Hello Panda, and finally taking that HG/MG Deathscythe out of the box and bringing that Gundam to life.

No gatekeeping. No pressure. Just good people and shared interests in a judgment-free space.

We look forward to meeting you and hearing all about what makes anime special to you.

Newbies and old school fans welcome.
