Comic Fiesta 2010 (Day 2)

Comic Fiesta day 2 photo pimps!
I’m sorry I didn’t managed to have as much photos as I should because my camera battery decided to die on me so it got very difficult to take photos T_T. In the end I had to resort to using my Mobile phone. There were so much eye candy, I really wanted to stab myself for not bringing my battery charger along (lazy) oTL.
An as my return coach was 7pm, I didn't find it wise to cosplay. So I was in plain clothes on Sunday and was definitely surprised when people recognise me O_O. Much thanks to all who said hi and please continue to support TCC  ^_^!

 

We took the Monorail to the event hall on day2 and experienced the insane Malaysian public transport culture.
There were a lot of teenagers in t-shirts like these. With prints on their collars and the collars turned up.

 

Dragon Ball! I love old school cosplays even though I'm not a fan of the series. Cha-la-head-cha-la!

 

 

Akihiko and friend as Kaito and Miku

 

Someone had this big paper tank prop. I wonder what series its from o_o

Very kawaii Len & Rin!

 

Very impressive prop *_*

 

OMG, Shuui, Min, Ying, Look! Nintama! They seemed busy so I didn't approach for a photo =(

  

YAHIKO from RUROUNI KENSHIN!
He was in a rush when I approached him but he still kindly posed for me ^^;

 

 

A very good Noctis Lucis Caelum from Final Fantasy Versus XIII. Very good weapon! Would have loved to get more/better shots of him but the event hall was TOO CRAMP!

Digimon!

Kawaii girls from K-on. Sport anything special ^_^?

Misaki Maid Sama!

Super cute BLEACH cosplays >.<!

 

Very cute pair of Suzaku and Euphie!!!! I was so happy to see them T_T. Pretty costume coupled with pretty faces and hair !
I kept thinking in my heart "OMG! the two of you are finally togatharrrr!!!". Fan girl much yes oTL

Now that I look at it, the Euphie looks like Sakana Sashimi. Anyone knows?

Kagamine Len and Rin, Boss Death version.

With Zoey who was the Malaysian representative or AFAXRCC!! It was nice to meet her amidst the crowd and I'm so glad she recognised me ^_^! Didn't get to meet Chris though D:
Zoey cosplaying as Yui from K-on. Christmas version!

 

Vampire Knights

 

So sweet right >w<?.
Personally I think she did a pretty neat job with her make up. making her look almost Caucasian from far.

I had a photo of him holding a pair of panties but my stupid camera battery died and didn't register that=_=

 

Chizurus from hakuouki Shinsengumi Kitan!

 

With Kazeki's awesome Beast from Kuroshitsuji

 

Ciel from Kuroshitsuji

I thought his umbrella prop was pretty well done

 

 

Akatsuki

Dannychoo.com's mascot, Mirai Chan!

Yes, the APH fever burns in Malaysia too

Yes awesome wings O_O. It was so big she had difficulties just walking and needed 2 minders to help. Sadly, these are the only photos I have of her awesomeness=_=

SUPER CUTE Gintama Okita! Okita and chibi Okita! They were blood sisters so its easy to understand why they look SO ALIKE.

 

The best freaking Radu I've ever seen. We met him while waiting for the lift and it was SUPER crowded. The costume was VERY well done and he looked really good *_* Bishie face with awesome makeup. Photo don't do him justice at all =(

And this ends my photo collection from Day2. There were so much more awesome cosplayers but my dying battery life really stopped me from taking photos of them T_T. SHall remember to bring extra batteries next time!

Spent the rest of the afternoon shopping at Sungei Wang Plaza with Faizul, Maria, Peggy, Zephyus and ZY before we rushed off for our coach.

======================================================

To sum my entire CF trip up, the event area was really cool with many side rooms/alleys and at a very strategic prime location. I would say, having the event at such a prime location definitely helped foreigners like myself in planning our trip and better encourage travelling down.  But I guess the turn out of the event this year probably far exceeded the organiser's expectation. And in turn, yes, the event area was VERY cramped.
Also, I think Malaysia have prettier girls and bishi-er (Handsome) guys than Singapore =( . Any non-Malaysian on this with me?
p/s: They also have a lot of pretty...em  boys. *points to 2nd pic*

Comic Fiesta 2010 (Day 1)

So last weekend, I took a bus and hopped over the causeway towards our neighbor, Malaysia to attend the biggest Comic & Cosplay event of the year; Comic Fiesta! We stayed at the Grand Seasons Hotel during our short trip. Much thanks to Maria for doing most of the logistic arrangements.



Comic Fiesta have definitely come a long way. I remember my first Comic Fiesta experience in 2002 (or was it 2003?) and it was held in a very small hotel hall. It was really small but cosy. So much have changed since my last CF trip (2007). The event this year had a pretty big event area and has a list of big commercial sponsors ranging from Animax to University and Hoyu. They also had some signing sessions.

One thing that hasn’t changed, was the warm and hospitable locals =). Alright, enough with my rambles, on to the pictures!

 

This is Peggy and myself in the hotel room waiting to be picked up by Faizul who was our most gracious tour guide and driver for the entire trip! Maria not in pictures because she had ventured out to buy us lunch (awesome Wanton noodles with the best Char Siew I’ve eaten in a long time!)

 

Skye as Sheryl Nome. Love her dress!

Yes…it was very crowded –_-

Touhou …Maria?

Red Queen and Alice! I never knew they were friends xD

Yes…very WTF. LOL!

 

Noshuu as Sheryl Nome! 

With Yuanie as Kagamine Len, Himitsu version! Xrystal and Sakana were deign Rin and Miku but I didn’t have any chance to take a group photo T_T
  

Ayase and Kikyo’s team were cosplayign as characters from this Chinese Online game who’s name escapes me again @_@ But their costumes were SO AWESOME!!! According to Kikyo (lady in purple) , her costume cost her at least $700. The things we do for cosplays T_T

The only picture I have of Jesuke and Sakurazaki xD

 

Rina and friend as Kaito and Miku. Cendrillion version?

It has recently become a craze for Singapore cosplayers to trade CosCards with each other. Personally, I’m not for this whole craze because the practical side of me can’t help screaming (internally ^^; ) at the extravagance of this action and a namecard still retains its most primitive purpose to me. But oh well, everyone' just wanna have fun so…… ^^;;

 

Such a sweet Yuna. I melt every time I see her smile >w<

Ringo, Valerie, Himiko and Natsume as characters from APH!

 

 
With Viospace and Christy!

The Twin Towers. LOL

LOL much yes. Event hall was kinda crammed yes.

 

Ryeain as an original character. So cute!

With Sally! She was the one who helped me with my web code problem ^^. Really nice to meet her again after AFA!

And I saw Akihiko whom I met during the Hong Kong Halloween treats Party!

Very pretty Lightning *_*

Very ethereal RG Veda Cosplayer *_*! She definitely had the grace and features to pull this off >w<

Gumi, Madness of Duke Venomania version! Was pretty surprised to see a cosplay of this song since this song doesn’t seemed to have picked up yet. But lovely choice of colours and fabric. Also a shout out to the cosplayer , thank you for reading this blog^^

Like I mentioned previously, Comic fiesta this year was a big eye opener for me, partly due to the commercialism of it. There used to be almost no commercial sponsors but this year had a lot. But I’m not complaining, don’t get me wrong. Having the ability to get the attention of the big boys proves the grandness of the event and definitely help to secure better locations =)

 

The many merchandise booths!

I’m really glad Comic fiesta still retains its big array of Doujins and fan merchandise booths. I must admit I went gaga over the cuteness of the merchandises sold there.

For some reason this dolfie reminds me of the boy from “Just be Friends”. XD

DOMO!

 

Absolutely kawaii sock plushies on the right T_T. I bought a blue ninja for Shuui :D

Bumped into Akihiko again who changed into Miku XD

Hahaha Konata met the Tenchou! Crimotaku cosplaying as the Tenchou from Lucky Star

 

Idamaria! definitely a surprising cosplay to see ^^. Apparently there was a Kucabara too but I didn’t get the chance to meet him. I don’t know about you guys, but do you guys feel a sense of familiarity/bonding whenever you see someone who cosplays as the same character as you? I always feel a little happy whenever I see someone cosplay as characters I have done before (or loves). And its definitely one of the best things about attending events.

After the event, we dropped our stuffs at Zephyus’s room and went for dinner.

 

espresSOUP had one of the worse Minestrone soup I’ve ever tasted. The bread wasn’t any good either. It just tasted like plain white bread. Would have much preferred it if it was slightly toasted.

 

Very cute and Christmassy decorations at the main atrium of Berjaya Times Square =)

 

You can tell I love junk food ^^;

Shopping with ZY while waiting for Zephyus and Peggy to be ready for their photoshoots!

Yes, we were filming porn.
