Shards of Animefest

About shards of Animefest

Collecting shards allows you to buy unique rewards which cannot be obtained otherwise – all you need to do is visit the booth Factions and shards on the ground floor of hall A2 and exchange shards for the faction buttons or stickers.

Faction battle
Collected shards are also counted towards the total score of the individual factions which are competing against one another for the victory of this year’s Animefest. Purchasing faction rewards doesn't take the points away from your faction.

Theme of the next Animefest
Shards are also counted as bonus when you vote for the theme of the next Animefest. Just select the theme you are rooting for and your shards will be added. And once you collect some more shards, you don't need to vote again; they will be counted automaticaly.

Shards are collected for your visitor QR code, which is a part of your ticket. It’s sufficient to save it as a picture or 7-character shortened code in your phone, tablet or carry it with you. The best way is saving it on the Animefest website or app (see below).

Shards are awarded by presentation curators, workshop organisers or game administrators. Voting in Animefest contests polls grants you a shard automatically.

How do I check how many shards have I collected?

Insert your ticket’s QR code (or the 7-character shortened code) in the Animefest website:
https://www.animefest.cz/shards
or into the Animefest mobile app
app.animefest.cz (section Profile)
where after choosing faction the collected shards and short description of their origin will be displayed.

You can scan the QR code from your ticket simply by clicking the Scan QR code located above.

What if you choose wrong faction or vote incorrectly?

Just visit us at the booth Factions and shards on the ground floor of hall A2 and we will patch up right away!

About the factions of Animefest

Creators

Creators are driven by a need to transform ideas into action. Be it for themselves or others, sometimes they just need to draw, sing, write, knock something together or maybe sew a little.

Devotees

Devotees are known for their enthusiasm. From the TV shows to collecting butterflies or even inorganic chemistry - they learn everything they can about the topic of their interest and keep spreading the word around with passion.

Pals

Pals are the glue of every community. They are most often the ones to lend a helping hand to others, provide entertainment, organize events or joke around to improve the mood of others.
