Here are some of the pictures taken at AFA'08!

AFA'08 Official Mascot

Created as a universal symbol of Anime and Japanese Popular Culture for the festival - AFA KUN is designed by renowned Japanese character designer Ryosuke Tei, previously the Creative Director from Furi Furi creative design agency in Japan. Tei is currently the Executive Director with Peach Blossom Media for the multi-media, multi-platform animation production LaMB by Animax Asia.

in front of Bandai's raw space booth.

A cosplayer walking in the midst of the crowd.
She let me take a picture but a lot of people gathered after she allowed
and I was swarmed by them. End up can only take a random picture.

The stage showing a preview of Tamagotchi's anime
that is about to be released.
This is also the stage used for the concerts of May'n and
Mr. Ichiru Mizuki as well as for the Cosplay Challenge.


A gigantic empty space in the middle of no where.
Sigh... wasted.

One of the artist's demonstration.

One group of Japanese who were here for B2B purposes.
They somehow knew I was taking them, thus managing to dodge
my camera before I could take them clearly.

The seminar... How boring~

Code Geass - Lelouch of the Rebellion (above)

Two pieces of the artwork which I like the most. They were winning entries of a drawing competition whereby the drawing have a theme or meaning to it.

This is the Grafitti wall for people to "doodle" on. During Cosfest' 08 at Downtown East, there was a same thing. I saw a very nice one while I was there. Nice right?!

The Programmes available for both days are on the Programme Board that can be seen just outside the entrance/exit. It is also available through the brochure.
