The AniManGaki (AMG) is an annual ACG event in Malaysia.

Name[]

AniManGaki is a portmanteau of the words Anime, Manga, Games, and Gaki. 'Gaki' in Japanese slang means 'brat'.[1]

History[]

AniManGaki originally started in 2009 and was founded by Yvonne Sing. It was initially organized by the Anime Club of Sunway University College. In 2011, Sunway University College had a name change to Sunway University and a year later in 2012, AniManGaki separated from the university. Today, it is an event organized by the AniManGaki Organizing Committee under Rakugaki Events PLT.[1]
