After a year-and-something long hiatus, Anime Evolution has been revived albeit in a more subdued fashion. For two days this November, Anime Evolution: Akimatsuri returns to its traditional venue at Simon Fraser University’s Burnaby Mountain campus.

A number of guests have already been announced, including Lauren Landa (BlazBlue: Calamity TriggerBlazBlue: Continuum Shift, Puella Magi Madoka Magica), Brendan Hunter (Dynasty Warriors: Gundam, Mega Man Powered Up), Garry Chalk (ReBoot, Street Fighter: The Animated Series, Stargate SG1, Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog), Cathy Weseluck (InuYasha, Dragon Ball Z, Hamtaro, Mobile Suit Gundam), Lee Tockar (My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Mobile Suit Gundam 00, Pucca, Ayakashi) and Synaptic Chaos Theatre.

Of course, there will be a dealer’s room and artist alley, panels and AMV contest. The web site is lacking information over scheduling and other events considering how long the organisation has been offline during their restructuring phase.

Anime Evolution: Akimatsuri takes place on Saturday, November 3rd, and Sunday, November 4th, 2012. Pre-registration is available online at $25 CAD for both days, or $20 CAD for a single day or $35 CAD for both days at the door.
