About
OUR HISTORY
Tsubasacon is West Virginia’s first Anime, Gaming and Cosplay convention. Originally founded in 2004 in Charleston, the convention switched hands a couple years later, moving to the Big Sandy Superstore Arena and Conference Center, where it spent quite a few years bringing anime, gaming and cosplay once a year to the residents of Huntington. In 2019, Tsubasacon returned to Charleston, and brought with it 2,000+ attendees to celebrate the weekend with anime, gaming, pop culture and of course, cosplay!
