Cons

Huh, apparently the group doing AnimeNext is planning an manga oriented edition in October, called MangaNext, set to be held in Seacaucus, NJ. Unsure how one gets there though, since I do not speak the NY/NJ transportation system fluently enough. Presumably I'd have to transfer from Amtrak? And it's certainly cheaper than Katsucon or Otakon and smaller which is a blessing. I'm not sure I can deal with 9000 people anymore.

Secaucus is a major light rail hub in Jersey. Fastest way is probably to transfer from Amtrak at Penn Station (NYC, I'm presuming you'll be going to, rather than the other Penn Station in Newark, but it will work from that one too) to NJ Transit, which has tracks very nearby Amtrak's and ticket vending machines in places. I think most, if not all, of the NJ transit lines should stop there - their website has good scheduling, and I think pricing as well. It's probably about $3 each way. Secaucus Junction is the destination stop you want.
