This year's convention will feature two rooms dedicated to all things yaoi. Programming will include viewings of yaoi films and TV shows, panel discussions with titles including "World History Of Homosexuality" and "Crossplay 101" (in other words, drag) and Café Nocturne — a Japanese-style drag café featuring flirty female waiters dressed as men.
But Kat Williams, a Toronto-based anime artist and author who organized queer panels at the convention for several years beginning in 2000, says she's dismayed by the lack of queer content created specifically for queers at recent Anime North gatherings.
