Event Coverage on Anime Festival ASIA!

Hello AGAIN everybody, this few days, it's gonna be a mad rush of updates covering the events that occurred in the past two weeks! Bear with me, for some of this events may have passed already. College and personal life really don't go well together. Ughhh..... >_<

So here it is, I attended the inaugural event of DAY 0 of Anime Festival Asia MALAYSIA. It was held at Plaza Low Yat. For those of you unfamiliar with that place, it is situated close to Bukit Bintang. Easily accessible via monorail. The press conference which also included the appearance of all the special guests and artistes was quite a hit with the ACG (Anime,Comic,Games) *ahem* correction, AMG (Anime,MANGA, Games) fans! The Day 0 event also had early ticketing sales for those who want to skip the crazy long lines on the actual day of the event. 

The event started off around 6.30pm with the appearance of emcee DANNY CHOO himself and Ferlyn Yoshimi (damn, I gotta admit she was cute)

 We even got a glimpse of the man who made it all possible, Mr. Shawn Chin, the Director. He gave a short opening speech and some short promo video of what to expect at AFA MY(Anime Festival Asia Malaysia) and we even got news of AFA heading to Indonesia this coming September! After the short speech by Mr. Shawn, we were then treated to seeing the special guests and artistes!

There was also appearances by Aimi and Maon Kurosaki which sadly I didn't get the opportunity to snap a good picture of.

A placard me and a friend, Max Chu, made on the spot to show our support.

All in all, it was a great opening to one of the well known AMG events in ASIA!

Cheers all!

Vincent.
