章 693: Back to Sakura City

Kizuna Hall, Sakura City, Sakura Abode Country.

Sunday, March 14th.

The sun had just begun to dip below the horizon, casting long shadows across the sprawling Kizuna Hall complex in Sakura City. Tomorrow, this place would be buzzing with life as the doors of Primrose Animation Convention, or PrimCon as it was affectionately known, would swing open to welcome the world. But for now, the hall was a hive of activity as final preparations were made for the biggest anime and manga convention of the spring season.

PrimCon had grown into a colossal event over the past 30 years, with nearly a million visitors attending last year's convention over its five-day run. This year, with the dates set from March 15 to March 19, the anticipation was even higher. Fans from all over the globe had already begun to descend upon Sakura City, eager to experience the latest from the anime and manga industries.
