This year, we let it really crack, with the number one rock band “Mio Yamazaki” from Japan. They contributed the opening theme song “Noise” for the anime “Hell Girl” (jap. Jigoku Shoujo). Look forward to an open-air concert on Saturday and an indoor concert on Sunday. Also on both days an autograph session is planned.

With J☆Dee'Z we bring real idol power from Japan to the stage of Anime Messe Berlin. Welcome with us Nono, Ami and Momoka, who will bring you lots of fun. Look forward to the second ending „Peasmile!“ from Pokemon XY. At the Anime Messe Berlin they give a concert on Friday and Saturday and an exciting Q&A on Sunday. Every day you have the opportunity to get an autograph.

After the great success last year, Ninotaku will also be presenting the big AMV competition at the Anime Messe Berlin on Saturday evening. The winners will receive prize money totaling 420 euros from Anime on Demand. If you are an AMV video editor yourself, then we would be very happy if you would participate in our exclusive or free contest. Deadline is 23.05.2018!

For the third time we are calling for the big Anime Messe Berlin Drawing Contest! This year's topic is "Manami and Figu-chan go to Hollywood", matching the our new location Filmpark Babelsberg. The deadline is 29.05.2018! All works can be seen in the media stream at Anime Messe Berlin and the best three will be honored at the opening ceremony. Look forward to great prizes from our sponsors. We would be very happy if you would attend.

To give you a taste of what awaits you at this year's Anime Messe Berlin on the grounds of Filmpark Babelsberg, we have updated our website with the first part of the program. We are happy to welcome EXIT Tunes, Haruka, Ninotaku, DoraNeko and the Sailor Moon & Captain Tsubasa artist Marco Albiero to the fair again. It's best to check who else is coming. With EXIT Tunes we present you the J-DISCO again on Friday evening! If you only want to come to the disco, then you can now secure the cheaper 8 Euro J-Disco Ticket online and at all ticket outlets. Be curious which guests of honor from Japan will follow!
