My comic fest day started very late. Arrive at Sunway at around 2 then headed straight for the convention hall. My first reaction was just plain shocking. I only went to 2 anime/manga/comic convention and this is my second. The amount of cosplayers were more and furthermore, they were good.

Then I have to honor my deal with Neku. He sponsors my trip and I was to be his eyes and ears. Asking the first time was the hardest for me. With a mixture of being shy and shocked, I manage to break the ice and ask for my first cosplayer pics.

Why so serious?

From there onwards, my subdued otaku personality started to rise up I started snapping away.

Kyon!

Upon entering the hall, it was like a  mini PC fair. First half of the hall was the stage and coupled with some sponsors booth. Then there was the doujins area which I headed straight for it. There was a lot of doujin booth selling their artworks. I visited each of their stalls and started to wish I have hundreds to spend there.

Most of the artwork there was good and not to mention all the little cute handicrafts waiting to be picked up by you. Nothing beats supporting your local industry and enjoying yourself at the same time.

In between my shopping spree, I do manage to take a few more cosplayers here and there. But sadly I did miss out on the events that happened on the stage coz I was too busy supporting doujin groups and taking pictures. But around 4-5 I left early because I was out of money and the first day was slow.

But this does not end here yet!
