Brought to you by your Local Fighting Game Nerd Charlie™️(with C2's support for the Kyoto venue), this event was made to give fighting game lovers or soon-to-be a space to play and/or compete together in a friendly and relaxed environment. We also run a tournament bracket every time.

❓ FAQ & NOTES
If you have any questions or concerns not covered here, feel free to message us! 😊
🤔 I don't know anything about fighting games! Can I still come to this event?

⌚ Do I have to be there exactly at the starting time?
