    The Roast of Anime NYC 2021

    We're back for a special feature to recount one terrible, horrible, no good, very bad weekend in New York. Join us and our roommates/guests/survivors Sammi and Melissa as we recount all of our harrowing experiences just trying to attend Anime NYC. By now it's pretty well known how poorly organized the con was, but let us tell you. It was rough, and honestly? We might not return. In the week since then, Anime NYC has released a statement you can read on their Instagram here. And most importantly, news broke on December 2 that the new omicron COVID variant has been confirmed in an attendee last weekend. Anime NYC has released a statement on Instagram, and we also highly encourage anyone who attended to monitor their symptoms, get their booster shots, and get tested. Information on where to get tested varies by state, and New York specifically can be found here.
