Time Out says

Anime fans can gather in person once again at Anime Festival Asia (AFASG22), which is back as a physical event for the first time since 2019. Running from November 25 to 27 at Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Centre, the event is going big with meet and greet sessions with cosplayers, featured art exhibitions, cosplay and dance competitions, and Japanese street food. 

This year’s festival theme is AFAVERSE, where you get to be the protagonist of your own video game. Pick up your own AFA band and earn special AFA digital currency and AFA Hero XP (experience points) by taking part in exciting “phygital” games at the festival.

All three nights will also be packed with premiere screenings, special guest appearances, performances and branded segments. Watch Sword Art Online as part of the AFA Night Live!; experience Obey Me!, Lycoris Recoil and more of your favourite content live on the Day Stage, and take selfies with featured cosplayers like Charess, Ely and Hakken, who will also be having their own meet-and-greet sessions. 

There’s also a dedicated area for budding artists called the Creators Hub, which will feature dozens of booths where you can buy fan-made merchandise including bookmarks, posters and self-published comics. You won’t be going hungry either, not when you can snack on authentic Japanese street food at the Food Street. 

Ticket prices start at $68 for a one-day VIP pass. For programme updates and ticketing information, visit here.
