Anime Festival Asia 2009

It’s past mid-November, which means that it’s time for AFA again. Bah, why do I even have to say this. Most people who are reading this would have been there.


I may not be a fan of K-ON, but this Japanese Mio’s cute

I didn’t manage to attend AAC ‘09 which was held on 20th November as I had school. School sucks. It was a real pity that I missed out on it as I heard that it was a rather enriching experience. You certainly couldn’t expect less from an industry talk. You can find out more about the event from Darkmirage’s coverage.

My event posts have often been a huge messy ramble, and I don’t really like that. Hence, I shall take up a neater, categorised approach towards this AFA ‘09 post.

STGCC 2009: My Very Late Recount Of The 1 Hour Spent

It’s been almost 2 weeks since STGCC. I’ve got everything ready to post about it; The few photos and the content I want to write all in point form in my mind. Yet, I simply lost the motivation to write anything. I’m not sure if it’s just laziness or just a burnout. Like LianYL’s burnout. Do the man a favour and take a look at the stuff he’s trying to clear.

Alright, back to the event. STGCC 2009 has been the event which I spent the shortest time at. Usually, when I head to such events related to cosplay and other aspects of geek/otaku culture, I’d be there pretty early an stay till closing time, or at least near to it.


They don’t bother if you have a DSLR now, you need to have epic gear if you want those in costume to look in your way

With the brief time spent at STGCC 2009 on Saturday, I only have a couple of things to say.

AFA08 Day 2: ME-I-N!

Since Day 2 wasn’t much different from Day 1 except for the concert and some other stage events, there wasn’t much of a reason to arrive early today. In fact, there wasn’t much of a reason to come, besides May’n’s Live.

Before I begin on the nitty-gritty details of today’s highlights, here’s my favourite cosplayer of the day. If only I had requested for her to pose with the revolver.


She has the Kino feel

AFA08 Day 1: So I Got A Media Pass?

Day 1 of AFA08 had crazy queues, mainly the entrance ticketing booth. And so, I patiently queued up with my sister to get our normal tickets.

Speaking of tickets, I was only told by those who had media passes that my name was on the media pass list after I paid for my ticket and entered. I didn’t expect my name to be registered, since I submitted my application merely 3 days prior to the event and didn’t receive a reply of any sort. So, I wasted 8 dollars for nothing LOL. I ended up giving my ticket away to someone who might want it, since there it isn’t of any use to me anymore.

STCC Day 2: The Camera Is Decent But The User Is Not

Today’s highlight was the cosplay competition, so many came with cameras of all sorts for some snapping.

I failed my camera. It’s pretty decent at taking photos, but my skills just aren’t there. It was only after I got home and did some surfing around the interwebs when I realised that my shutter speed was far too slow as compared to what most people use for indoor shoots.
