Anime has been around for some time, and has it’s place in the world. You see events, such as Anime Expo or Anime Los Angeles Film Festival appearing more than often.
This time, they had the Fate / Grand Order USA Tour appearing!!
It’s nice to see an anime event just for this series and game. I would never imagine for this to ever happen, but I was glad that Aniplex had this.
Anyways, enough of my babbling! Let’s get in on this and talk about the event!
Right when I came into the area, I was welcomed to this long line of people. Attendees have been waiting hours before the event (to get their first grabs at the awesome merchandise they’re selling). When you get to the front of the line, you are welcomed to the event with this amazing banner. Such beautiful artwork!
Right when you walk into the building, you are drawn to this awesome display of the battle area shown in the series, with Mashu’s weapon shoved into the ground. It was cool because they wanted to recreate the battle scene, so that you had a feel of what the world would look like if you were there at the time.
Right behind the display, there was the long line of people waiting to pick up their exclusive merchandise of the event. There were so many great items to choose from, but with the huge fan base behind the mobile game and anime, most of their products SOLD OUT quick! So, you have to make sure you hit that area asap, or else you would of missed out on some good finds!
After picking up your goodies, you had to hit the 13th floor and that’s where the fun really begins! This is when the journey really starts!
They marked up the floor as a road where you can take the journey throughout the floor plan. To give you a better idea, here was how the floor plan was laid out.
When you were given your badge, you were given a pamphlet that has all the different activities, maps, and this section of it called,”STAMP RALLY.” You would have to walk throughout the floors of the event, you would need to find the Stamp Rally stations and get stamps. When you complete it, you get an exclusive sticker pack!
Besides this fun activity, you get to see all of the different cut outs of all of the characters you play in the game and watch in the series…so you know, you got to take a picture with your favorite waifu or husbando.
Here is a gallery of all of them:
Besides the seeing your favorites, you get to check out all of the cool weapons, different backgrounds where you can take photos, play the dueling gaming, the VR game, and more.

After this, you would go down to see the panel. We got to see the panel where they featured Satoshi Tsuuoka and Albert Kao. They got to talk about themselves and more about their roles within the game. It was a wonderful experience. It was such a packed room, but all the attendees loved it!
Overall, it was such a fun experience! If you are a huge Fate fan, you would of loved it! I was overjoyed that there was such an event for this series, and I would like to thank Aniplex for allowing me to attend this event!
