The University of Essex's First Comic Convention
Our Project

We are raising money to fund the University of Essex's first comic convention. We hope that this will bring attention to the University and attract more prospective students in the years to come.

Do you know what's the difference?
"Anime is a term used to refer to Japanese animated productions featuring hand-drawn or computer animation and Manga are comics created in Japan, or by Japanese creators in the Japanese language, conforming to a style developed in Japan in the late 19th century. So basically, in very simple terms, Anime is a cartoon and Manga is a comic."
About Us

We are the executive committee of the University of Essex Anime and Manga Society. We are a Gold Standard society and received the award for Most Improved Society for the 2015/16 academic year.
