Daicon 09

This was quiet a while back, but I decided to make a post about it anyway. The folowing is quoted from the official website:

"DaiCon is an expo, being organized on a scale rarely seen in Malaysia. It is an expo that has been created for the sole purpose of showcasing the latest and most innovative in the world of modern Japanese visual culture, from audio to video, print as well as interactive media"

So yeah, basically, it's an ACG event lol. ACG stands for anime, comic, and games which of course includes cosplays, doujin booth, etc. haha ;P

I went there with a friend by bus. It was a pretty long ride since we departed from Shah Alam. Cyberjaya was apparently quiet, no hustle or bustle like I'm used to, and blazing hot. Imagine we had to walk a long way from the main entrance of the campus towards the venue despite the scorching glare from the afternoon sun. We were so glad when we finally saw the building where the hall was haha


























































It was a fun experience. It was the first time I went to an actual cosplay event, with a real competition going on haha. It wasn't as big or lively as Comic Fiesta 09 which was held later that year, but it was pretty cool. I think the venue could have been better with bigger space and friendly design but overall, I might be looking forward to coming next time ^_^
