Comic Fiesta 2011 : Post Event Report DAY 02

DAY 02....well well well...what can i say about it..
The mess that the KLCC management did for the first day was cleared off and well handled by the CF Comm...The crowd control went even more smoothly and there was hardly any crazy lines anymore......

I'm not entirely sure if there are any lines..(i'm sure there are a few long queues every now and then) because i was couped in hall 4 the entire day....
WHY? because mobility was.....hazardous...(no, not for me...for the people around me)
because i cosplayed.......
.
..
...
....

Yeah..Uber Big huge wings.....=_=
If you've guessed it rite, then give yourself a pat on the back....
i cosplayed Yue from Cardcaptor Sakura...^^

I was with Team Clow the entire day.....and it was my first time at an event..BAREFOOTED...
wasn't a very good experience because i scrubbed my legs like hell when i got home..LOLOLOL!!

Still, here's my full team...

Cosplayers :
Riko Kojima - Kinomoto Sakura
Kikyo Leng aka TPL - Li Shaoran
Diyana - Tomoyo
See Wah aka Michiru - Eriol
Yue - me!! XD XD

As usual, day 02 was when EPIC cosplays appear..(most probably because of the Competition....)
I was particularly awed by the CLAMP team....especially Himawari's Sakura because of the firey designs on her costumes (she cosplayed Sakura from Tsubasa Chronicles, fire kimono version) but it was regrettable that i couldn't snap any of her shots because i only saw her at THE END of the event.....

It was fun meeting up with old friends and getting Coscards..(SO SORRY I HAVE NONE TO GIVE OUT..!!! I'LL CONSIDER MAKING THEM...I THINK...><;;; because i feel no one would want my card, so i just figured..AIYAH..no need to make them la..hahahhah)

I didn't really collect a lot of coscards, but man, i have an awesomely great time during CF this time...

It felt almost like CF2005 - 2007 again..when cosplay was all about fun fun fun....(no drama, no politics, etc)

Here are the few shots i got (while running around like a CLAMP-ed up Yue)

DOMOKUN!!! <3<3<3

There were a lot more other AWESOME cosplayers, but then i only manage to snap these few....
Anyway, kudos to the CF Comm for being able to pull off an event of such international scale....
It almost felt like AFA.......XD
Still, the amount of attendees scared me a little as i ponder to think, how are they to get an EVEN BIGGER venue than this next year??
there were approximately 20,000 (if i'm not mistaken) attending this event this year (over the span of 2 days)

but all in all, i enjoyed this years CF A WHOLE LOT..!!
CF COMM, all of you, from President to the helpers and volunteers, you all deserve a pat on the back and AWESOME JOB!!!!! *thumbs up*

And here's to my awesome Team CCS...you all RAWK OKAY?!?! WE BE COSPLAYING CCS LIKE A BOSS~~~~!!! XD XD




Let's now start to plan for our photoshoot...XD XD XD
also, i apologise profusely should i bang into people or poke people with my wings during CF day 02.....I couldn't see, and it wasn't on purpose.....Sorry Sorry and Sorry again..!!! m(_ _)m

With that, here's a pic of my tako Clamp-ed up look..!! (courtesy of Ya Tze's iPhone..XD)

Comic Fiesta 2011 : Post Event Report CF Day 01

Comic Fiesta came and passed us by in a flash...
It was so fast...i mean like really..to me it's like..
WHAT WHAT WHAT?!?!?! WHAT HAPPENED DURING THE WEEKEND?!??! WHAT?!?! it'S OVER???!?!?!?!

ahem~
anyway..
let me start off the report.....

Day 01
Our team debuted Team Reload....in our default outfits.
The roles were mainly :

Genjo Sanzo - me! XD
Son Goku - Riko
Sha Gojyo - Michi
Cho Hakkai - Tsu

Also Relyss reprised her role as Saitou Hajime from hakuouki but the Calendar version..^^

Well...i'm sure right now, everyone would've known how superbly messed up the queuing system was on the first day....
heck, it was so long.....the queue wasn't even in KLCC anymore..!!!
why? well...the KLCC management took over for crowd control and man...it was a mayhem....they should've left it to the CF commitees to do it...and the KLCC management staff showed no respect to both cosplayers and the event attendees.

I heard one of them scolding...like really SCOLDING the attendees......it was so rude of them..
i felt so much like twacking them with my harisen.....

The overall placing placing of the booth were not bad....as you entered the hall (if you managed to enter THAT IS..=_=), on the right side were the sponsor booths (which sold an array of ACG merchandises....) straight on was the stage and then on the left was the doujin booth...
It was easy and straightforward. It wasn't as packed as last year too....(maybe because of crowd control?? i dunno...=_=)
I bled.....i bled well at the doujin booth.....spent RM50 on mugs, but those were for my colleagues's farewell gift.....and i spent another RM45 on the CF T shirt.....><;;;; (it was compulsory to get the t shirt..!!! it's an annual thing okayyyy..!!!)
Kinda sad because most of the doujin booth sold only button badges and bookmarks...

However, my overall experience during the event was awesome because Ceui and Mikuni showed up almost on time...

Ceui sang 5 songs...all of which i'm not very familiar with..most of them were from the anime 'The legend of the Legendary Heroes' (i think)....an anime i've not seen yet...but maybe i would after this..haha...
Mikuni on the other hand sang songs from Full Metal Panic and Genso Saiyuki (WOHOOOO!!!!)
she sang her album rendition of 'Alone', 'Sore Ga Ai Deshou', 'Tomorrow' and one song i'm not too sure...
I left the hall when she did the duet with Ceui...T^T (we were hungry..T^T)

When the mini concert was ongoing, our team stood at the far end of the doujin booth's side, because that place wasn't too crowded plus we could see the stage from there...(perspective ppl...i could see mikuni and ceui dancing around on stage from there..and there weren't any crowds around)

We werent posing or whatever, we were actually watching the concert..but we have a lot lot lot of people coming up to us asking for photos..
As we were all very well aware of the rule 'NO PHOTOGRAPHY AROUND DOUJIN BOOTH', we had to decline a lot of them......SO VERY SORRY FOR THAT!!!! THE COMMITEES TOLD US NOT TO HAVE OUR PHOTO TAKEN...so we had to keep our promise..!! ><;;;
(we can't do anything about 'snipers' though...=_=)

After that, we went into hall 4.....and OH MAI GOD..there were so many people around HALL 4..!! cosplayers AS WELL AS event go-ers....
(well, the KLCC management did a 'GREAT' job keeping everyone locked in hall 4..=_=)

However, this CF was a different one for me.....usually during events, our team would've NINJA-ed through everything....without being able to meet friends and take photos of other people...
BUT, this CF..i met a lot of old friends, as well as spoke to some random strangers regarding our fandoms....
it was like..CF 2005 all over again.....^^
There was a Singaporean Dude who i spoke to regarding our fandoms on Saiyuki....it's SO DIFFICULT to find a guy who loves saiyuki..and that guy was very friendly....LOL..
ALSO, i had a cosplayer expressing her love to me..=_=....i went WTF????

LOL...so all in all....it was an awesome CF2011 for me.....yeah well..parking didn't kill us that much because it was RM20 shared out with all of us...so we didn't nearly died..hahaha...

Do look into my FB page for pics....

stay tuned for day 02's report..!!!

Comic Fiesta 2011...EPICLY HUGE EVENT!

17th and 18th December...the day where you'll see lots and lots of colorful heads and extravagant costumed people walking around KLCC...

Yup, next week is Comic Fiesta....one of the biggest ACG event in Malaysia. This year, the event will be graced with the appearance of artists Mikuni Shimokawa and Ceui.....
I dun really know anything about the latter, but Mikuni Shimokawa has sang one of the best songs in anime history, and to have her come for our Malaysian event is like a dream come true.

Well, it wont be a full blown concert, but hopefully she'll sing a song or two..
hopefully she'll sing 'Alone' from Gensomaden Saiyuki.....somehow, comparing FMP's songs and GS's...i kinda prefer her 'Alone'....

ANYWAY~~~~
why did i say CF2011 is a HUGE event?
first, they managed to get 2 international artists here..(kudos CF TEAM!!)
secondly, it'll be held in the heart of KL, and one of the most prominent venue in Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur Convention Center...
(though, parking would definitely kill all of us, but oh well....^^ once a year..i suppose it's worth it..XD)
3rd...
HOLY THE PROPS FOR THE TEAM IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST EVER IN OUR HISTORY OF COSPLAY.....
well, i know it's miniature compared to the rest of the AWESOMEWTFBBQPEWPEW cosplayers out there, but for us...it's considered huge..LOL..

and this year we are lack of 2 team members (the Yeoh sisters flew off to London for their brother's convo....)
so we're a bit SHORTHANDED...LOL..hopefully all goes well next week..LOL..

AAAAA........my costume is still not ENTIRELY 100% done yet, because i need Riko down to help me sew it..(i HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO SEW INSANG PARI....=_=...the only sewing i know is Jahitan Kia...=_=)

so err..yeah..
and i can forsee, the least i'm spending at CF this year, is RM100..that's the least....oh boy~~~~~
