AnimeNEXT Staff

AnimeNEXT prides itself on being a convention started by passionate fans in order to give back the fandom.

Our staff of volunteers work throughout the year to bring you some of the best content and guests that we can find from around the world. Without our dedicated staff, AnimeNEXT wouldn’t be what it is today.
