Chair update: Kazokukon is a passion project and a labor of love. I am writing to let you know that for 2023, Kazokukon cannot happen due to unexpected and very substantial needed home repairs. Kazokukon ties up about one third of my pre-tax income, as well as significant time throughout the year, time which is needed to finish the house work. Were I to try to run the convention, I would be unable to provide either the funds or the dedication throughout the rest of the year to make it a success.

 

Without the necessary time and money, I cannot improve Kazokukon 2023 beyond 2022's levels. I am laying the groundwork for 2024, which will provide time enough to give you a convention experience you deserve.
