on with my second part of the haul and happenings at yesterday's AFA
 |
| ~Menma~ Ano Hana |
 |
| booth on the Deathnote Musical next year |
 |
| Shinigami Ryuk |
 |
| Light and Ryuk, some manga panels |
given that i only watched the Death Note movies including the L movie and half of the anime, i can say it's a good series with nice plot twists
after we took photos at the Death Note booth we stood at the Future Entertainment Stage to watch the guest cosplayers..
there were cosplayers from South Korea, Malaysia, Taiwan and Japan
Reika and Kaname were cosplaying characters from Hoseki~
Yugene Fay also cosplayed another character from the same anime
There were 4 others cosplaying as characters from Love Live! and 3 Taiwanese cosplayers who did characters from Psycho Pass 2
went to look at Hana and Baozi's cosplay photos.
alot of fan service photos...

| Poster collection |
all the posters A4/A3 and that big kaneki poster
every single one is so pretty!~
if i must say, finding that Mushishi poster was precious because i am currently watching it and i love the series, OST and the storyline
the Psycho Pass ones were also the ones that made my day..
i got those together with the Ace of Diamond poster
didn't watch Ace of Diamond but i just felt that the art was very clean and nice so i got it
the 3 posters at the bottom (Noragami, Chibi characters of Tokyo Ghoul and Kill La Kill) i got that at another stall, all are A3 size
the Cat returns, Howl's moving castle and the goth girl were from another booth
the (Final Fantasy) lightning print was the other stand alone print i got, there were 3 versions of it but i got this one because i like the background fog like pattern
the 2 other prints i got stand alone were Mushishi and Tokyo Ghoul
the booth with the Tokyo Ghoul print was very simple and didn't stand out as easily because the prints they put on the wall behind the table were ink sketches
they had realistic paintings which was why i was attracted to the Kaneki print
there was a Mikasa poster as well which was precious but i couldn't bear to part with my cash
was running very low on cash then
 |
| to the god hand who made this, thank you. |
there was 2 versions to choose the print, either in Matte ($25) or Glossy ($40) so i went with the cheaper option
the one displayed was the glossy one and obviously freaking prettier but then in my current state at the time i had to go with Matte
JUST LOOK AT THAT!
i was going on about how i would regret if i didn't get it so i decided to "Heck it and buy" after less than 15 mins of thinking
i hope the booth does well for today and tomorrow!!
this print will definitely sell well along with the others
*TIP: If you want to save money at events like these, it is best to know lesser animes. The less you know the more you save, The more you know the less you save.

| Postcards collection |
Do you see a trend here?
I was so happy to see the Gintama prints
this seller also had a tumblr so i was so glad i found her booth
i just had to get the gintama prints
trying my best to get a variety, i went for the Ulquiorra (Bleach) and Aladdin (Magi) print to round up my postcards to 10. there was an offer if you bought 5 postcards you could get a free bookmark
so i got a Kagura and Tsukiyama bookmark
 |
| BH6, Tiger and Bunny, Nozaki-kun, Pokemon |
my favourite couple from the Nozaki series
the Tiger and Bunny notepad and pokemon sticker were free!~
 |
| badges collection *Uta hp plug/key chain |
found some YowaPedal badges!~
got my favourite 2 and wish there were more YowaPedal prints
bought the O blood type badge along with the TG badges at the same booth
the Prof Oak and Seennpaaaaiiii!! badges were from another booth
i just decided to get the senpai badge because it was cute!
(was thinking of the "Senpai, Please notice me" thing so i got it.. haha)
i bought less badges considerably
after the event we went for dinner and then headed to Kino to buy stuff
i got Takarai Rihito's latest release!
*mainly her works are BL but just chanced upon it and decided to get it. since i don't think i will get to see it if it wasn't placed so openly.
 |
| graineliers and A-Jin |
today i went there again and bought vol 2 of A-Jin but in Chinese...
because i want to continue the story
.....
 |
| english& chinese |
whilst walking around the area there were more people who came to the event just to see and not necessarily know much anime. there were a few Caucasians there too which was rare because when AFA was held in the past there were mostly Asian base
quite a number of younger audiences and i mean like Primary school and lower Secondary ages
some with their parents
which is really interesting...
wonder if the price for entrance tickets will increase year by year...
if it is going to increase again i really need to think twice properly
so much for the round up of my haul and thoughts of AFA 2014!
will update again soon~
