Switzerland’s largest anime festival! “Polymanga” highlights
Switzerland’s largest anime festival! “Polymanga”
Switzerland’s largest anime festival, which began in 2005, “Polymanga”. This year again, it was held for 4 days at the 2M2C Montreux Music & Convention Centre, 2M2C Montreux Music & Convention Center in Montreux, Vaud.
With around 40,000 visitors, it is one of the largest pop culture, video games and manga events in Switzerland. During the event, there will be video game events, karaoke, concerts, etc., as well as a cosplay parade where the venue will be even more exciting.
It is interesting how Japanese anime culture is accepted in Switzerland. It is interesting to visit and experience the Montreux anime festival.
The 15th event
The 15th event this year is a big event that “last year 42,000 people” will attend.
There were concerts, movie screenings, game tournaments, karaoke and cosplay events at the venue. The fans heated the venue with pop culture, in particular costumes of various characters appearing in manga.
The Montreux Music & Convention Center by Lake Leman was at the venue, and people dressed as elves were prominent this year. Fans who appeared in the Pokemon costumes would have had a very hot feeling this weekend when temperatures were soaring.
At the venue, the height of the popularity of Japanese manga and animation came to light. Manga has become a major part of the Japanese publishing industry since the 1950s and is gaining in popularity around the world. At the event, Hiroshi Hiroda, known for the theme song of the anime “One Piece”, performed at other sites.
Game tournaments were also popular. International game events will feature professional gamers who have signed a sponsor contract with companies, but the participants in the photo below may also be sponsored by the Swiss Touring Club Other Sites (TCS) No doubt (notice the ear of the helmet).
