Anime Expo 2025: 1-Day Badges Bye-Bye, A Little Smoke & A Surprise Store

Not the greatest start to AX, but everything is cleared now. Apparently, an exhaust fan broke, (so like, the air conditioning system). 

Oddly, there's a last minute pop-up Shonen Jump Store just outside of AX? They just sent out the press release today...maybe it was hard to clear the merch for entry, who knows?
