Got the tickets earlier this year, so this time round, I do not have to queue like 40 mins before having a chance to get in.
Day 1 tix - Just a wrist band this time round.
Day 2 tix - Festival + Stage + iLoveAnisong
Since I got the tickets earlier, I've time for some breaky!
Haven't took this in a while
Just in time to catch this, its interesting to see Danny's event every year. I guess that is the only reason why I got the F+S tickets.
Yoshimi & Danny are the hosts for all the stage events this year.
This time, he started off with some stuff which made me felt like I was attending a seminar.. lol...
correct? lol...
Anyway, it was some interesting talk.. and we were shown the latest series of Culture Japan. You can catch that series here in youtube too.
After the show, we were introduced to the duo (vividblaze) who does the music for the show.
can't remember their names though..
Went off to explore the area first before it gets too crowded... it was already starting to get crowded at 11am.. Some photos from the Festival Area.
Some cool itashas were on display.
of cos, danny's mirai chan was on this bmw
Didn't take alot of photos of the stalls this time round... too many people crowding around the toys too... The number of people just spawns by the seconds... I wonder where did they spawn from...
I have only a few other photos to show, and these were actually taken on Day 3 morning.

Miku - Genki version
Most of the time, I was just wondering about looking for cosplayers to shoot... The crowd on Day 2 was really horrible... Level 3 had an event going on, Level 4 had some crazy electronics fair going on which added tons of humans... Level 6 was closed to cosplayers... End up most of the cosplayers ended up at the area above the steamboat restaurant. The lighting was bad and lots of people were there... it was a disaster..
Luckily towards, the end of the day, the event on Level 3 finished and more room was available to everybody who just wanted to enjoy the event. This story repeated itself again on Day 3......... will keep my story short and show u some of my favourite photos....
And oh.... the crowd control for the Kaname "meet and greet" event was crap too... whatever happened to the "pls queue up first before the event system" which we had last year???
i was stuck behind lots of folks.. lucky for me, i had my 45-200mm
hey look, 2 Sanji-s
Always like the snow miku
Madoka
Madoka again
Madoka again again

Real nasty characters
Mio - found her to be quite attentive to cameras
Stealing a sneak shot at May'n
Always find these red contacts very fierce
Trying to be creative with these 2 shots

Another girl who seems to know where all the cameras are..
Didn't have any chance to be a fan-boy this time round... no photo taking opportunities with any guest at all... was pretty disappointed with how it turned out this year...

iLove Anisong
It was still a blast - always felt enjoyable with their performances, especially Angela, Kalafina & May'n. Afterall, it's a once a year event..
