San Japan Report

San Japan

While Jean, Steve, and Irene were at Dragon Con Labor Day weekend, Jimmie and I took a short drive down to San Antonio to demo some games at San Japan.
 
San Japan is one of the biggest anime conventions in the central Texas area, with over 25,000 fans partaking this year in cosplay, video games, tabletop games, RPGs, sword fighting, car shows, and almost anything else you can think of. They even had a "Fans of Buc-ee's" meetup! 
 
We had two demo tables going with Zombie Dice, Gelatinous, Deadly Doodles, Hack & Slash, and of course, Steve Jackson's Munchkin Presents Batman being played all weekend! Zombie Dice and Gelatinous were instant hits, and at one point our table erupted as someone rolled 13 brains in one turn in Zombie Dice to win the game!
 
Overall, San Japan was a huge success. Thanks to San Japan for inviting us down to play some games, and Andy in particular for running an awesome tabletop hall! We hope to see the tabletop section grow even bigger in the upcoming years.
