How does this affect you? M.E.W. 3 is now able to offer a broader selection of panel topics, less censorship in AMVs, Fan-Made videos and viewing selections, no more curfews, more freedom of content and expression!
M.E.W. is an acronym that stands for Manga and Exotic Worlds and is part of the non profit Morak Events. MEW is a cross genre community and convention for manga, anime, sci fi, and fantasy but M.A.S.F.F. is kind of a mouth full. All other M.E.W. meetings and events with the exception of the New Years convention are all ages. Our mission is to promote creativity and imagination through all forms art and literacy.
