We’d like to extend a huge thank you to jpn_consulate_denver !

Some of our directors enjoyed a celebratory dinner at the home of the Consul General. We were proud and excited to have discussed the brightest moments of Nan Desu Kan 2026 and how we plan to celebrate our 30th year milestone in 2027!

We cannot thank them enough for their immense kindness, years of partnership and the delicious meal.

We cannot wait to see what the future brings♥️

Best of luck to community pillars, Bunny & Dahlia as they go to GICOF in South Korea to represent Team USA!

Bunny & Dahlia are long time NDK cosplayers, community supporters and amazing people that won at Holiday Matsuri 2025's WCC for the spot to be this year's Team USA at GICOF! Dahlia was our MC at this year's NDK Cosplay Showcase and Bunny was an amazing backstage goddess that supported and reassured all of our cosplayers.

We can't wait to hear your stories and cheer you on while on the international stage! You got this, !

We have to give a shout out to the larger than life members of our very own Cryptid Department!

Each inflatable on the con floor is a part of the NDK family and Cryptid Department! You can get a full run down of each NDK Cryptid in the NDK museum where each one has their own dossier.

With another NDK in the books, and the staff slowly going into hibernation, we wanted to take a minute to remind you all to practice some self-care!

We all spend the weekend completely immersed in a community and atmosphere that is truly one of a kind and no one puts going home on their schedule. So, if you find yourself more emotional than usual, exhausted to your bones, and like something is missing, here are some ways to help beat Con Drop.

🥰 Find a con drop buddy! Check in with each other, stay connected share pictures and stories. The community we have here extends beyond the walls of the Ga***rd.

🍡💧 Eat and hydrate! Busy weekends make daily routines a little crazy and, in some cases, non-existent. Re-establish the routine that feeds your bodies and brains!

😴 Rest and rest well. Sleep is vital to your well-being and let's be so real- you spent the weekend running on caffeine, excitement and most likely no sleep. So, take the time to rest. Give your body and brain the time they need to rest and process your weekend.

📸 Share your weekend! Bask in the incredible cosplays, models, AMVs and everything in between. Tell people about your weekend, share the best, weirdest and favorites often and loudly!

We hope you get the rest you need and have your best year yet, and we will see you all at NDK 2027 as we celebrate 30 years of Nan Desu Kan together!
