My Statement Concerning Anime Midwest
26
2019
Recently, allegations against AnimeCon.org CEO Ryan Kopf of sexual assault have arisen (You can read the full context here: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2019-06-26/convention-runner-ryan-kopf-banned-from-anime-milwaukee-following-alleged-sexual-assault/.145329
This is, in fact, the latest in a long line of accusations against him for inappropriate conduct. I am scheduled as a guest of Anime Midwest, a con I have attended for many years that is under the AnimeCon.org umbrella, and am under contract to attend. However, I take such accusations seriously and as such am taking the following actions:
-This will be the final time I attend any convention chaired by Ryan Kopf or operated by AnimeCon.org, at least until such time as he is removed from the organization completely.
-50% of the proceeds I make will be donated to the charity RAINN (Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Network).
