Join us for the second online RetrieverCon, UMBC’s own anime convention, hosted by the UMBC Anime Society! We will be celebrating Japanese culture as well as anime and other media by hosting panels, showing some new and old anime, and creating a digital space where anime fans can still make the connections we would have in-person.
Our RetrieverCon Discord will be open to watch shows and discuss anime and other things with fellow congoers. We will be holding a few events on the server as well. Our panels will be held in a Discord call as well as streamed on our Twitch account, which you can also find on the official site! Check out our schedule when we release it this week leading up to the event to see what interests you! In addition, we will be hosting several games throughout the duration of the convention, including a quiz show and everyone’s favorite sus pass-time!
A cosplay contest in collaboration with UMBC’s Cosplay Coalition will also be taking place from 1-2 pm. Prizes will be awarded to the 1st and 2nd place winners as well as the Viewers’ Choice--be sure to stop by to vote for your favorite cosplayer! Also, if you want to apply to the contest (by sending in a video of you in your cosplay), the application is open until March 10, so get your submissions in! Send your applications in here! https://www.retrievercon.com/cosplay-contest/cosplay-application
Looking for that sweet, sweet retail therapy that comes with cons too? We’re also promoting vendors and their digital stores! Check out the “Vendors” tab on our website to learn more.
We may not be holding the event in person, but we have some fantastic things planned. We hope to see you there!
