AFA09 and..

read so much hype about it but totally disappointed - the highlight booths are so small, are they really highlights?! 30th Gundam Anniversary didn't feel like it either. Maybe it's the way it's handled - should have a seperate area - a mini-museum of sorts with chronological displays of the mobile suits, their descrptions, their pilot, some famous quotes of the pilots, or maybe a TV next to each Gundam showcase series of some scenes, or never seen before scenes!

although it's fantastic to bring K-On seiyuus, oh, there was one huge part that was not subbed, only a few who understood Japanese laughed whereas 99% who didn't understand didn't.

for seiyuus i'm still waiting for the big ones like Ishida Akira or the main cast of Saiyuki, Prince of Tennis or Gundam 00...that sorta..

i didn't go for the concert..long queue. Lack of one week's sleep, didn't want to overstrain myself. Dinner was great - although it burns a hole in me pocket since i'm not working it's worth the one-time cause the sushi is so FRESH!!! that i didn't need to add sauce to enhance their flavour!!! Thanks to LP who led us there X3

Maybe AFA could hold a full-length concert. i hope T.M. Revolution/Abingdon Boys School come along for a full-length concert. Maybe bring in musicals like Tenimyu, or even hold local auditions! Irony is the scripts are in English while the songs are sung in Japanese...that's gonna be tough.

i broke my own record - i didn't buy anything at AFA this year!!!! i took some pics though. Sorry about the low quality of my handphone camera. Hopefully one day i buy a camera of its own...

so there i was raving about Gundam's side story translated manga Gundam 00f first volume. But looking at my bank account *sigh* must forfeit it - let alone Gravitation!!! - to wait for the arrival of the translated Trinity Blood novel

i will not post pics of LP's n K's cosplay unless they let me..i guess they enjoy themselves, finally cosplaying at AFA :) my turn to "manage" their and friends' belongings. They took pictures of other cosplayers and did funny poses!!! On the way home they were already discussing what to cosplay for EOY on 26 December 2009 Singapore.
