Anime Expo announces artist Yasuto Sasada as Guest of Honor
Another big name is coming to Anime Expo this summer.
Yesterday, the convention announced the addition of artist Yasuto Sasada as Guest of Honor. Over the years, Sasada has held a plethora of solo exhibitions throughout Japan. One major highlight in their career was working with Yohji Yamamoto at Paris Fashion Week. Sasada posts a plethora of art videos over on Instagram.
Anime Expo will take place at the Los Angeles Convention Center from July 3 through July 6. Four-day and single-day badge registration for the event can be made here. Our coverage of last year’s Anime Expo, which gained a turnstile attendance of 407,000 people from 64 countries, can be seen here.
Since 2009, MP3s and NPCs owner Terrance Pryor has written about music, conventions, cosplay, and video games for publications such as AXS, Examiner, Fake Walls, and Ranker. Based out of Los Angeles, the former rock concert promoter/radio host can be seen talking about rock music on AXS TV’s Music’s Greatest Mysteries and discussing music and whatever else on their Black Man Talks Rock channel on YouTube.
