Description: Blue Exorcist makes its US debut on DVD at NYAF 2011, and ACParadise needs help in promoting it! We will be having cosplayers help attendees complete challenges based off of classes from the show (Knight, Dragoon, Tamer, Aria, Medic) to get stamps, which they can redeem for an exclusive item.
There will also be a separate event at the NYAF stage, similar to the one we had at Anime Expo. Attendees will compete in trivia contests and games for more Blue Exorcist swag.

Aniplex of America presents the hit Anime series Blue Exorcist at NYCC. This screening features the first 2 episodes of the series subtitled. Executive Producer of Blue Exorcist Hideo Katsumata will also be at the screening to give the fans a special greeting. Rin Okumura and his twin brother Yukio have been raised by Shiro Fujimoto, an eminent priest, so it comes as a shock when Rin discovers their biological father is actually Satan! As the border between \"Assiah\" (the human world) and \"Gehenna\" (the demon world) is crossed by evil, Rin vows to become the ultimate exorcist and defeat his own father. To hone his raw skills, Rin enters True Cross Academy to train with other exorcist candidates.
Location: The stamp rally will be held at the Aniplex Booth + 3 other locations on Friday and Saturday. There will also be a separate 1 hour event at the NYAF Stage on Saturday, and finally a cosplay gathering.
Volunteer Info: Volunteers will need to be cosplaying the uniformed versions of the Blue Exorcist characters. Time commitment for the booth each day will be three hours. The stage event and cosplay gathering are one hour each. Helping out in all events will qualify you for a badge.
