AX 2025

Dearest Convention Friends,

In 2014, we set up our first booth at Anime Expo (AX) with shaky hands and hopeful hearts. We had no idea then that we'd be accepted as part of such an incredible community or that our little space would grow to mean so much to so many of you.

Over the years, you've made our booth a special place of connection and authenticity. We've shared stories, dreams, and countless meaningful conversations. Thank you for picking up 20,000 Art Books and writing 5,000 hopes and wishes on our tanabata tree. Each interaction, whether a quick hello or a deep heart-to-heart, has been a gift we've treasured.

Some of you have told us you make it a point to visit our booth every year, and those words have meant the world to us. We've watched friendships form, witnessed powerful moments of connection, and been honored to be a small part of your convention experience. The trust you've placed in us by sharing your stories and allowing us to be part of your journey has been truly humbling.

While our time as an AX exhibitor is coming to a close, we want you to know this isn't goodbye—it's simply a turn in the path, and our commitment to this community remains as strong as ever. While we won't be at our usual spot at AX, our mission of creating spaces for authentic connection and supporting this community continues. God's love doesn't require a convention hall, and neither does ours.

Thank you for being part of our story. Thank you for every conversation, every shared moment, and every time you stopped by just to say hello. You've made these years in the AX Exhibit Hall have been incredibly special, and we're deeply grateful for each one of you.

Keep an eye on our social media for updates about where our next adventure takes us. And hey, if you see us out there in the wild at AX, other conventions, or community events, come say hi! We might not have our familiar booth setup, but we'll still have the same warm welcome (and probably some art books tucked away somewhere).

With warmth and appreciation,

Cecilia
