Editorial It’s been a somber year... The year 2016 has seen it’s fair share of setbacks and the world has lost many of its stars and legends, having many of us thinking back to when we last saw their movies or concerts and wished we could do it all over again. Genki this year also saw its share of setbacks, and here too, there were things we wanted to see and do again. For Genki, however, we were able to pull a Victor Frankenstein and bring some things “back from the dead”: the AMV-contest, the Karaoke Room, and the Maid Café, to name the bigger ones! It seems like old events weren’t the only thing that was brought back, as youkai (Japanese monsters) and other horrid things seem to roam the halls and rooms of Genki 2016, so please watch your step. That having been said, however, we wish you are horror-bly good (would that be called “terror-fic”?) Genki, and hope you’ll enjoy your time with us. P.S. Please be extra careful in that one bathroom, it’s not properly exorcised… Best regards
Victor M. Alring Main organizer

Rules
Genki is a place for everyone, and we want people to get along and have a nice experience. However, we can not do this without having some rules in place. In addition to Danish National laws, there a several rules that participants must abide by, in order to ensure that everyone has a good time at the convention. All rulesets for the convention need to be followed when applicable, i.e. photo rules, press rules, expo hall, weapon rules and “Free hugs” rules. Instructions and guidelines stated, either visually or by staff and security, have to be followed at all times. While on convention grounds, consumption or usage of any intoxicating or hallucinatory drugs/substances is prohibited. Smoking is permitted, but only to designated areas. Exceptions may be applicable to certain events when stated with visible information upon entering the particular event. Exception is only valid during that particular event. General noise levels should be kept within reasonable limits. When queues form at the entrances of events, keep order and behave nicely to your fellow guests. Do not, in any way, block corridors, pathways, or any other place where movement is crucial. Cosplay is not consent! Refrain from unsolicited touching of other people, their cosplays, or their props – respect their personal space! It is likewise not permitted to cat call, harass, or in any other way behave in an offensive manner towards others, be it physically or verbally. If you feel you’ve been accosted or harassed, whether it be physically or verbally, or you’ve witnessed someone who has, then immediately contact our security personnel or go to the Info Desk and tell them what happened. Our security personnel will then take care of the situation. Breaking any of these rules will, depending on severity, result in a warning or a ban from the rest of the convention. Several warnings can also trigger a ban. Breaking any law will result in a ban and being reported to the police.

GUESTS OF HONOR // Expo hall Emperpep
We are pleased to be presenting Emperpep here at Genki, his first convention in Europe. Emperpep has loved drawing since he started as a kid in 2004; mostly as a hobby though. His close friend (who came up with the penname emperpep) asked him to do a drawing challenge together when they were 17 years old, after that, he sought to continuously improve, which he’s been doing ever since. “My urge to improve is quite simple, I just wanted to see how my art will look like when I get better over time. I'm planning to meet people in person because I usually live and work alone in my studio, drawing and sharing art knowledge with people would be nice, take a look around artist booths and look for random stuff that catch my interest, and sightseeing in Denmark looking for nice ideas and experiences.“ emperpep.deviantart.com
Palle Schmidt
Comic Express invited Palle Schmidt to the convention where there will be a signing session on Saturday at their booth (booth P) in the Expo Hall. “I’m a freelance illustrator, writer and comic book artist living in Copenhagen, Denmark, with my wife and two daughters.I have no formal education but started my career writing and drawing for the Danish roleplaying magazine “Fønix” and later became one of the editors. I published my first comic book “Night of the Long Faces” in 1999, a semi-biographical look at desperate nightlife, and the hard-boiled detective roleplaying game “Fusion” in 2000. In 2011 my book “The Devil’s Concubine” was released in the US from IDW Publishing. In 2012 I completed a 1-year education in screenwriting at The National Film School of Denmark, while finishing my graphic novel “Stiletto”, which was released in Denmark in 2013. I was the artist on “Thomas Alsop“, a monthly book from BOOM! Studios with writer Chris Miskiewicz, dubbed Best Mini-Series of 2014 by USA Today. I teach comics on comicsForBeginners.com. “ palleschmidt.dk

General info Video info
At Genki, we have organized a group dedicated solely for recording video footage around at Genki. The group consists of both professionals and amateurs, who has banded together to capture the feeling of attending Genki. They plan on getting as much as possible on film, like Cosplay presentations, interviews, event shows, livestreams, etc. So if you see a camera crew walking around, do come over and say hello if you're feeling up for it! Our crew is dedicated to filming all the cool things at Genki; focusing on the experience and the mood among all of you wonderful guests! Genki keeps a copy of all videos recorded, which may be used for promotion and related projects.
Lost and found
Have you lost something during Genki? Contact the info desk and remember to describe the lost item’s appearance and contents to make the process smoother. Likewise if you find something without an owner, please hand it in at the info desk. If you are no longer at the convention grounds or the convention is over, you can direct your lost and found requests to info@genki.dk.
Event schedule
The full schedule is available at: genki.dk/info/event-schedule Mobile version: genki2016.sched.org/mobile
Top 4 things to remember
Drink plenty of liquid. Don't forget to get some (real) food. Behave towards others as you want others to behave towards you. You are not as immortal as your cosplay character.
Handling safety and threats
Your safety matters to us, and we want you to feel safe at Genki, so you can have a great time with your friends. To ensure the safety and well-being of our guests, our security group will make routine checks, mostly scanning for prohibited items during the convention. They’re here to help you and keep everybody safe. Feel welcome to reach out them about anything regarding health and safety.
12
In case of an emergency
In case of a fire or other emergencies, please remain calm and move towards the nearest exit. Follow the instructions given by our staff, assemble in the grassy field behind Farum Arena.
Cosplay and Conduct
As always, we look forward to seeing a lot of wonderful and awesome cosplays. We want people to feel safe and confident, no matter how bizarre or revealing their outfits might be, and that starts with some clear rules about conduct. We trust our visitors to behave with decency and respect towards others. The cosplayers are not plastic figurines, and ANYTHING relating to them and their costumes are boundaries theyset themselves - whether it’s physically or emotionally. For some, wearing these costumes in a crowd is a rather big leap, and we want to encourage them with compliments, not scare them away with disrespectful behaviour. If you feel someone is behaving disrespectfully, regardless of whether it’s directed towards you or someone else, please contact security or the info desk. People unable to follow the rules of conduct could potentially have their entry revoked and be escorted out of the convention. Of course, if you have some rough play with your friends, make sure that people around you know that everything is cool.
Phones and charging
At the Info Desk you can charge your mobile phones, digital cameras and other electronic devices (up to 15 W), for a 5 DKK fee. Please note that we have only basic USB chargers, so if your device uses a special charger, supply that as well. We know the importance of a charged phone at a convention (like saving important digits from new friends, getting a selfie with all the Deadpools and calling your family to tell that you love them), which is why we are offering this service. Devices left for charging and not claimed by Sunday at 18:00 will be handed over to lost and found.

Genki Craftsmanship Competition Main stage, 13:00 Sunday.
Blood, sweat, tears, and time - almost beyond measure - is what these cosplayers have given in the pursuit of making the perfect cosplay outfit, fighting low res. source material/ tight budgets, using well-known techniques and acquiring new skills within many fields of crafts to go above and beyond in bringing these outfits and characters from the flat world of 2D to the less flat world of 3D. These 23 contestants will now present the fruits of their labour and leave you amazed even from a distance, with a sense of “how is that even possible with gravity still being a thing..?” Beforehand, the 3 judges will have had a closer look - every crook and every cranny have been checked out from top to bottom - before they pass their final judgment. Try and guess who wins what!
Winning Categories:
Best make-up - Eyebrows out of this world Yo! Best wig - When the real world rules no longer apply Best prop - It’s all about quality Best armour - When cloth alone just won't do Best tailoring - Now THAT’S what I call sewing vol. 16

Outside stage
A stage, outside? What is this, some sort of rock concert? Well, not quite, though there will music on it from time to time, stage performances of varying kinds, even a ‘anime’ dating show or two… so yeah, ‘some sort’ doesn't sound too far away from the truth after all! Just don't talk about the ninjas hiding around there, that our little secret… right..? genki2016.sched.org/venue/Outdoor+Stage

Sleep Halls
They are only accessible to people with proper Genki wristbands. The turquoise wristband provides access to the sleep hall and convention area, whereas the magenta wristbands only provides access. There will be marked areas where you can sleep, so we can have cleared walkways throughout the hall as escape routes in case of fire, and to make it easier for users to get around. Respect these markings. Leaving items in the Sleep Hall is at your own risk, so make sure to bring valuables with you when you leave. On Sunday, everyone must vacate the Sleep Hall no later than 11:30! Not abiding the Sleep Hall rules puts you in risk of loosing your wristband, which will nullify your access to the convention.
