The New York Anime Festival Mascot Contest Sponsored by Del Rey Manga and TheOtaku.com ends on Wednesday! If you haven't submitted a character yet, get to work ASAP. The winning character will not only be featured as the New York Anime Festival's 2009 mascot -- but the winner will get a truck load of Del Rey manga personally delivered to their door by Ali T. Kokmen.

Or not. The manga's real, but Ali will probably find some lame excuse -- like going to Baltimore to eat cake -- to get out of it.

Whatever. Enter at nyanimefestival.com.
