Anime Mid-Atlantic is an anime convention that Chris attended on the 29th of May 2004 and the 17th of June 2005. It took place at a Holiday Inn in Richmond.

Chris recounts this event in Sonichu's News Dash #5:[1]

On May 29, 2004, I, Christian Chandler, attended my first Anime Convention. I had a good time watching some Anime, sampling some Ramune (Japan Soda), and other things. My main highlight though was meeting the lovely and sweet-spoken voice actress, Monica Rial (pictured next to me to the left). Monica is well known for being the voice behind many Anime characters. Some of which include: Hyatt (Excel Saga), Saki (Steel Angel Kurumi), Mikako (Martian Sucessor Nadesico) and Shii (Puni Puni Poemy). She also sings opera very nicely, and she is a very nice, fun and sweet person to hang around with. She sure made my day a sweet one. ;8) |

Chris anticipates this event in Sonichu's News Dash #9 and #10:[2]
|
Since he has put himself into Sonichu’s world, he will “Cosplay” as himself (talk about self-respect, huh?). Also, he will be watching some of the good anime, getting some souvenirs, participating in some of the events and just having a good time. Also, he will have some printed copies of the Sonichu Premiere Issue #0 on hand, but if you want a collectable copy, you will have to find him, and ask for one. |
This year, Chris stayed for all three days of the convention, and spent two nights at a hotel alone.
