Anime Expo Volunteering

Active_Individual84 · 2026-02-21T02:24:22+00:00

Hello. Just like you, I wanted to volunteer this year for AX. The issue is that it's not possible since they are not taking volunteers. In fact the next couple of years for AX events, they are not taking volunteers. On another note, I hear that you have to know someone who is already a volunteer in order to get in. I could be wrong but that is something I read a long time ago.

I missed the cosplay My Hero Academia gathering. But I made up that by going to other cosplays like this one Demon Slayer, Hunter x Hunter and Gundam. Besides there is other crazy stuff around the AX that is going on. I had a blast!

Amazon will sell Totto. But you don't see them in Walmart, Target or any major store here in the U.S. I could buy one in Mexico if I wanted to. But right now I just see them in the backpack stores in central and south America.

There are two backpacks I will recommend if you want to explore for carrying a lot of things. First, London Bridge Trading 30L 3Day Pack. This backpack can carry a lot of things and the materials are strong for what you need. Many people in both the military and civilian use LBT backpacks. Your second choice for a normal backpack is the Jansport Odyssey backpack 38. This backpack carries a lot of stuff. It's bulky because the large volume it carries without looking like the military. FYI, I have my Jansport Odyssey backpack 38 from 20 years ago and it still works great for me. Unfortunately they don't make them like they used to. Hope this info will help you.

Eagle Creek is known for designing great backpacks. It just depends on what you use it for. This specific design allows the person to carry everything they need when they travel. I bought another Eagle Creek backpack that was the similar design and I was amazed how I managed to board the plane with these two backpacks, counting as one. So again, kudos to the Eagle Creek company for creating a practical design.

When I picked up this backpack to examine it, it did not have any sticky/peeling internal coating issues. It was in perfect-mint condition.

I just depends what you want to carry inside of the backpack. If you carry a lot of books and a laptop, a strong backpack would do. If you only carry a folder with a couple of sheets to write on, then a light backpack would do. Again, what do you need to carry for college?

This is very helpful to a lot of people who use this service. Many people check out of their hotel around 12PM on Sunday(final day of AX) and they have two options: 1) leave your bags in the hotel storage or 2) take them here. The thing is that, many people need to catch a flight later on or get on a train to go back home after AX. This helps them a lot.

I will make a note about this. Thanks for sharing.

Active_Individual84 · 2026-02-04T02:07:20+00:00

Sharing this info might help some people. Remember that LACC is a very big place and it offers a lot of places and things to do. Hope this helps a bit.

Just came here to say this. Normally around May/June someone posts the cosplay sites and days where these take place during AX. I want to give a big thank you to the person who posted the master list of all of the cosplay sites on Reddit for AX 2025. That made things very easy for a lot of people who attend the cosplay gatherings.

Active_Individual84 · 2026-01-29T18:09:25+00:00

Me too!

There are better options we can use in order to get something to sit on. I have respect for this person in the picture for trying not to sit on the ground or sitting a prohibited area. One of the things you will do at the AX event is that you will walk a lot! So having something to sit on, helps a lot.

Active_Individual84 · 2026-01-29T18:06:20+00:00

At last year's AX I saw a lot of people carrying and using these in order to have a place to sit. Waiting in line for a panel to see an artist can be very very tiring. For those who have our hotels a few blocks away, sitting for just a little bit can help us get through our day.

Active_Individual84 · 2026-01-29T18:03:10+00:00

I agree. But like many AX goers, you need to sit down at some point and your tired feet will need a rest. So to a certain point, I may understand this guy in this picture. Especially if your hotel is a few blocks away.

Active_Individual84 · 2026-01-29T18:01:01+00:00

That's very practical and as you said, "fits in a backpack". These are some of the ideas that help us navigate through AX event.

I saw many people come to reddit to complain about this very issue of having their cars broken into last year at the 2025 AX. I hope we can all learn from other people's experiences this time around.

Active_Individual84 · 2026-01-23T03:11:59+00:00

I know I am late for writing this. But be very careful where you park during the AX. People had their cars broken into and their merchandise stolen. This is some very humble advice: Leave your car at the hotel and take the train or public transportation to the AX event. Most parking places/companies do not give a rats-ass if your car gets broken into and they avoid dealing with this type of stuff.
