Anime Fest @ Taylor's University College Subang Jaya

Finally, a break from my addiction to Rakion SEA. Went to the AnimeFest at Taylor's College Subang Jaya organized by the Taylor's Anime Club. This is the first time I've been to an Anime Fest, but I must admit I was slightly disappointed the moment I step foot into their multi-purpose hall which house the event. It was smaller than expected, with only a few booths, some selling stuffs, only one displaying figures. However, the only real regret would be not bringing my camera (so have to stick to crappy pictures with my w810i). . . And, of course I missed the opening part with the club members doing the Lucky Star dance!!

Pretty much the size of the whole hall/event.

The event was held from 10.00am until 6.00pm, but I only went there at 12.00pm and left at 2.30pm (which was why I missed the Lucky Star dance). They had Cosplay contest (the main reason I went there), fanart contest, karaoke contest (never stay long enough to watch it), and Naruto Shippuuden PS2 battle tournament.

There were quite a number of cosplayers there. All of them dressed amazingly (although I couldn't recognize some of them >.<), but I'm more amazed with the equipments they carried notably Ichigo's Zangetsu from Bleach and Sora's Kingdom Key from Kingdom Hearts. Some of the shots, in no particular order(please bear with the crappy pictures):

Tenten from Naruto (I'd vote her for best cosplayer^^).

Tenten has many weapons!!*

The cloth scroll looks heavy?*

Tenten and ... ok, I admit I forgot his name!! :(

Konoha ninjas.

Akatsuki with light saber (xD). Although I don't know which member he is, I think he resembles Sasori of the Red Sand with his hat on.

One Piece, Bleach and Naruto's gathering?

L and Misa-misa. L looks amazingly similar despite the simple outfit which many tried to imitate.

Ichigo and Zangetsu. I can assure you, the Zangetsu is Heavy.*

Bleach's Shinji Hirako and Urahara Kisuke.

The charismatic Aizen-sama.*

Roxas and Namine from Kingdom Hearts 2.

Kingdom Hearts 2 gang.*

D-Gray man gang.

From D-Gray man (I havent watch the anime yet, but she definitely looks Very cool!!).

Another strikingly cool pose! Maybe I'll be picking up the anime soon!!*

Typical Rinoa from FF8. You wouldn't miss her in any cosplays.

And the shots on the only figure booth (from thefiguremall.com and various bloggers):

I kept reminding both of you to bring the camera and now you regret because of laziness XD
