Original JAPani guides that explain tickets, venues, cosplay comfort, source checks, and travel planning beyond the event-date cards.
JAPani checks official event websites first, then official ticket pages or official social links. If an official page is not reachable or does not expose the date in accessible text, the event card says so and points to the best available public source.
Dates, venues, guests, and ticket sales can change quickly. Treat this page as a planning index and verify the linked official page before buying tickets, booking flights, or arranging accommodation.
Send official links to legal@japani.fyi. Big annual events are prioritized; small local events can be added when the official source is clear.
