ヲタクールチュアの名刺2012
Arrived earlier last week is a truck load full of them meishi I’ve ordered from last Moon…
… in preparation for AFAMY12 that will soon arrive in a little more than another Moon’s time!
A Date with an EX(PO)
Revealed just a few moments earlier, the officials released the date and venue of the upcoming AFA12~!!
With this comes a whole new level of excitement to the community, as well as my annual pilgrimage to the City of Fishy Lion itself~!
Breaking off from its traditional venue of Suntec, this year’s AFA will instead be held on the 9th, 10th and 11th of the 11th Moon at Halls 7 and 8 of Singapore EXPO Convention and Exhibition Centre…
According to local comrades, this means gigantic space more than twice that of Suntec’s for the event itself!!! Imagine the possibilities of what can be done there!
Dual AFA Teaser
Thank to the heads-up from the Cultural Minister of Japan just a few moments earlier, I am now made aware of the official announcement of this year’s most anticipated otaku event… >w<
It’s more like a teaser tho…
The only thing made known to us is the confirmation of the date of which they’ll be held on… Waidaminute “they”?
Acquisitions: The Spoils of AFA11
Hammered by somewhat intense barrage of Post AFA Syndrome (Heard rotsa other comrades had the same problem… 0_0), I’ve not been able to properly sort out 俺の勝利品 from the event itself…
Good thing Tama-chan nursed me back to health as t’was quite a difficult period over the past week due to extreme loads of works from RL job (Even had to take a medical leave day off to cool my circuits >,<) and some minor others…
Anyways, back to early Christmas present unwrapping! XDc Got a trio of T-Shirts during Day 02, one from Cospa and the other two from K-On!’s booth…
Cospa’s mine, a full print of Tenshi from Angel Beats! in deep blue colour… Wore this immediately on Culture Japan Night a couple of days later… XDc The K-On! ones belong to my best friend Donny Choo as souvenirs, as he can’t make it this year to the event… He accompanied me last year as my bodyguard… XDc
Culture Japan Night: Aftermath of AFA11
Held on the day after the end of AFA11, Danny Choo invites all comrades together to enjoy, network or mingle with one another…
Also known to most as CGM (Consumer Generated Media) Night or even AFA Day 04, Culture Japan Night is a gathering or sorts organised by Danny Choo for all comrades to interact with one another, exchanging contacts and ideas or even forming absolute alliances… XDc
The gathering starts on 3 in the evening and lasts until 2100 hours, at the AKB48 Café…
Of Dollfies and Dreams: Musume-tachi of AFA11
Last Anime Festival Asia 2010, Kareshi Kanojyo no Mise (A popular local hobby store specialises in anime merchandise and gifts) loaned a part of their display booth to visiting Musume-tachi, drawing the attention of curious crowd…
Since Tama-chan arrival, Tama-chan has been eager to join the rest of them musume-tachi on display this time around in AFA11, but the plan was backfired when rumours of KKnM no longer sponsoring a DD booth this year surfaced earlier this Earth Cycle…
Just as Tama-chan was about to give up, Goshujin-sama’s comrade (an Imperial InnovaDDo) shone a blinding light of hope upon the withered shippo of Tama-chan: The DD Display Booth is a go!
Transformation: Cosplays of AFA11
Pouring all my attention focusing upon the DD Display Booth, I wasn’t able to properly cover this year’s wonderful cosplays, which includes the crowded halls outside the Festival area… >,<
Nevertheless, I managed to grab some shots of those within the Exhibition Halls, many of them are made of quality cosers… :3c
Exhibitionism: The Goods of AFA11
Having a name like Anime Festival automatically steers our wildest imagination towards tons of lovely and cool figures, AFA11 being no exception… XDc
Continuing from the debriefing, this time around we’ll take a look at various figure manufacturers and makers pledging their resources into this event, displaying and merchandising their best during the course of two days (12th & 13th of November, 2011)…
Day 02+03: A Debriefing on AFA11
Lack of proper WiFi and hectic busyness during my stay down South kinda forbids me to do a proper report on the event, but now that I’ve safely reached homu homu back on my comfy moe futon, I can finally file me experience to those who can’t attend Anime Festival Asia 2011 aka AFA11… ^_~
Some taimu ago, Imperial InnovaDDo Gordonator commanded me to reach the forward base within the Festival Hall at about 0700 hours to do an early setup of them Musume…
Rewinding the time flow back to the 12th, I arrived to the battlefield at the exact dictated hours to find many forwards scouts have already set up camp among the enemy stronghold, eagerly awaiting for their chance to grab a ticket to the goal…
Good thing I’ve already requested the assistance of comrade saiseki on the acquisition of an advance ticket or else I might have to join these scouts too… ^^;
AFA11 Day 01
I managed to survive the trial that is the 1st day of AFA11… D:
Unfortunately, not everything is without problems… >,< Here’s why…
AFA11 Day 00
The trip down South is now in effect…
Heading towards the local airstrip to catch my crimson Mobile Armour!
Long queue is long… ^^;
行ってきます！
In just a few hours time, I’ll be headin’ off to the airstrip boarding the crimson Mobile Armour down South for the Anime Festival Asia ’11! >w<
Besides Tama-chan, Chibi-chan will also tags along… XDc
See you very soon, the City of Lion!
A Plan to Hunt
With barely T-minus 4 days left until the flight down South for the 4th AFA, its floor plan has finally been revealed! >w<
Need to start planning my schedule in details now~! Initiating Operation: Niku Hunt immediately!
ヲタクールチュアの名刺
Some time back, I’ve already decided to make a pack of Meishi to exchange and/or given to comrades when I meet them during the upcoming AFA11…
As my ancient Meishi from AFA09 are kinda obsolete by now, I’ve been searching for a trusted online printing service for a while ever since AFAX, but it wasn’t until a comrade mentioned about a certain provider before I ended my desperate search… :3c
