Tease of a Splashy Summer

After a year of absence from my island, the Penang Anime Matsuri makes a splashy come back again!

Once again, Penang Anime Matsuri will be held on my island, at the Spice Arena, and falls on the 6th and 7th of June this year.

eSporting on the 9th Moon

Earlier today during the 2nd day of  I Love Anisong Matsuri Malaysia 2019 (Which unfortunately I didn’t attend), a small announcement was made on Anime Festival Asia’s official Facebook account: Penang eSports Festival’s finalised date of commencement and venue!

Currently, not much info has been released aside from the official website, which is penangesports.com…

Since it’s only two months away, news will be updated after ILAMY, so do stay tuned for more.


Announcement of ILAMY2019

Although PAM has been cancelled/postponed to the coming year, it seems it has been replaced with a new event, with the venue shifted to Kuala Lumpur this time around…

Announced last weekend, the I Love Anisong Matsuri Malaysia 2019 will happen this June, and judging from the title itself, we can probably assume that it will be more focused upon concert this time around, although currently the officials are accepting applications for their Creator’s Hub corner. There will be exhibitions as well, I suppose…

Unfortunately, I can neither attend this event, nor can I C3AFA2019, due to a high probability I’ll catch a tour to Japan at the end of the year. It is an invitation from a close friend of mine for decades.

While still in the planning stage, I would like to preserve my funds for the big trip itself, as it’s been my raison d’être to finally visit the Land of the Rising Sun…
