Ni-Ongaku Spotlight – October 2018 Roundup

Welcome to another collection of songs for the month of October that we’ve posted on our Twitter and Facebook pages for Ni-Ongaku Spotlight! This is also the final post filed under Ni-Ongaku Spotlight, in which going forward, in an effort to shift content from solely Japanese culture interests, Ni-Ongaku Spotlight will be simply be called Music Spotlight.

The Sights of Anime Weekend Atlanta 2018

This is follow-up video to the convention recap for Anime Weekend Atlanta 2018. With the recap itself recorded longer than I anticipated, I felt it would be easier to make a seperate video of the sights (and some sounds) of the con. I did not record EVERY moment of the con, but I hope it enough to satisfy to wanting to go to the con–if anyone is wanting to go to this con in particular, new or veteran con attendee. Please enjoy! ^_^
