Anime Fan Fest

Anime Fan Fest was a convention in Somerset, New Jersey produced by Otaku Magazine and MAD Event Entertainment. It took place on May 6–8 of 2016. A second one was planned for April 22–23 of 2017, but was cancelled.
Creators who had tables in the Artist Alley complained that AFF's table fee was far too high for the low number of attendants, with one saying "I've been to quite a few first-year cons, and I have to say that this one was the absolute worst of them all." However, attendee reviews on Facebook were more positive, with one fan saying "I've been attending conventions for 5 years now, and this weekend was definitely one of my favorite experiences. This convention was very intimate and relaxing, and made a great memory for me."

Anime Rap

Anime Rap is a subgenre/subcommunity of Nerdcore music that is characterized by a focus on anime characters and rap music. Anime rap musicians may also make music about non-anime topics such as video games, but the community is heavily focused on anime as a rule. The community also contains artists who are not rappers themselves, but who will regularly feature as vocalists on others' songs or feature other artists on their own songs.
Songs created in this community will typically be published on YouTube in the form of a video styled similarly to an Anime Music Video, but with heavy emphasis on the song lyrics. The lyrics will generally be embedded into the video's visuals alongside the character(s) featured in the song, as opposed to being standard subtitles.
== History ==
This community began to develop in the late 2010s, and has grown significantly in the last few years. Rustage, who has been credited with a significant amount of the popularization of the subgenre, has 1.4M subscribers as of March 2024, and only had 20k subscribers in 2018. Other notable anime rap musicians often boast subscriber counts in the hundreds of thousands.
Many early anime rap songs were raps about an anime or an anime character from a third-person POV, but in recent years it has become much more popular for songs to be sung/rapped from a particular character's first-person perspective.

Animexx e.V.

Animexx e.V is the biggest registered fan-run non-profit organization for manga and anime fans in German-speaking regions.
There are three forms of membership with different fees and privileges: Animexx Economy, Animexx Standard and Animexx Gold.
==History==
In 1997 the 1. Sailor Moon Online Fanclub in deutscher Sprache (SMOF) (First German language Sailor Moon fan club) was founded. The Club preceded Animexx e.V, which was founded when many members of the original Club found their interests had shifted and decided a new organization for fans of all kinds of anime and manga sources was needed. SMOF founder Johann “doc” Weber was also the first chairman of Animexx.
Animexx e.V. was then founded in January 2000 in Munich and in September of the same year already had 100 members.
In November 2012 the organization had 1187 members, more than half of them female.
==Projects==
Animexx e.V. also owns and runs Animexx.de, an online platform that serves as multifandorm archive, social network and notice board for German-speaking animanga fandom. Registered users of Animexx.de are referred to as members of the free of membership charge online club.
Since 2007 Animexx e.V. runs the animePRO site.
Animexx supports and is involved in organizing fan meet-ups and conventions. Connichi is something like the official Animexx convention, but Animexx also supports the smaller conventions Yuki Con, Hanami, J-Con, Animuc, ChisaiiCon and NiSa-Con.
Since 2002 Animexx holds a contest for entries to their fanart calendar, that is sold on conventions and via their Web-shop.
Animexx supports their members in publishing doujinshi and original manga stories (by funding and helping to get together with publishers) and since March 2006 publishes the Manga-Mixx Anthology with many fan drawn manga and doujinshi by members and online club members.
Since 2007 Animexx is also involved in running the German Cosplay Championship (DCM) together with organizers of Frankfurt Book Fair. Animexx organizes the preliminary rounds in different regions of Germany.
==Mascots==
The official mascots of the organization are the characters Aiko, a red haired girl with green eyes, and Yuki, a blue haired boy with a strand of red hair and gold/yellow eyes. Over the years profiles for both characters were developed with feedback from members and fanworks about them are enthusiastically encouraged and the organization has a special copyright statement that allows all kinds of non-profit fanworks to be based on Aiko and Yuki. Many animexx.de categories and system pages use fan created pictures of these characters. Most fanworks in the Animexx multifandom archive tagged “Animexx” feature these characters.

Anise (Freya)

==Canon Background==
Anise/Freya is a scientist and historian and a member of the Tok'ra. Anise is the name of the symbiote; her host's name is Freya. 
The name "Anise" means "Noble Strength" in Goa'uld. Freya is from a planet where people are more open and direct about their affections for someone, than what is usual of many cultures on Earth. Freya is attracted to Jack O'Neill, while Anise likes Daniel Jackson better. Presumably these are not deep emotions, as the Tok'ra 'love as one', as stated by Martouf/Lantash. 
SG-1 first met Anise when she arrived bringing the Atanik armbands, which she wanted to test on SG-1 as they did not work on someone who has a symbiote. However, the experiences with the armbands made the members of SG-1 somewhat distrustful of Anise.
==Fandom== 
Because of her name and outfit, Anise/Freya is occasionally referred to as 'Tok'ra Spice' in fandom. Many fans of SG-1 do not like her. Some consider her a one-dimensional character introduced as the series "Seven of Nine" - a character included for her sex-appeal. Others dislike her for her behaviour or because of Freya's attraction to Jack O'Neill. However, not everyone feels this way about her, and find her an interesting character, 
There is some, but not much fanfic written about her, mostly as a minor character.
==Fanfiction==
Fanfic about Anise/Freya is most often het, though femslash and gen fics exist. There are not many stories written about her, though. Many fanfic writers assume that Anise/Freya get along very badly with Martouf/Lantash, but that she will often try to seduce him (and most every other male in the Tok'ra tunnels). 
The most popular het pairing is Daniel/Anise/Freya, followed by Jack/Anise/Freya. The most popular femslash pairing is Sam/Anise/Freya. 
===Examples of fanfic===

*[A Pair of Archaeologists] (Daniel/Anise/Freya) Anise/Freya shows up at the SGC, needing Daniel's help with translations. But she's also there for another reason... 
*A Perfect Mate (Daniel/Anise/Freya) Anise finds the perfect mate for her and her host, Freya.
