This year, he’s joined us as a solo Anison DJ and provided a chill start to the convention on Friday night with city pop. City pop is a genre of Japanese pop music that emerged in the mid-1970s and peaked in the 1980s, reflecting the optimism and economic prosperity of Japan's bubble era. He followed it up with an energetic set of Anison Disco on Saturday. Anison Disco is a fun, interactive event open to all ages and fandoms, where attendees can enjoy dancing (otagei) to their favorite anime songs (anison).
