am back from AFA Day 1 and i am already kinda "defeated"... my legs are not like "dead" after apparently camping for VERY LONG hours for the concert. but it was worth =)reached there at around 10+, and i saw a very loooong queue... the first thought "queue to get in =.="... but it wasnt lol, so actually pre-registration did work quite well this year =) after going in, i was greeted by the gundam and their cabinets... almost all were like awesome O.O" love the exia one =D and then at the right was the bandai booth and then all the other stalls all around. the stage area this year was actually quite big and it was high enuff so that even if i was standing at the back i am still able to see. went through the stalls and had stayed at a booth for quite long where they were showing all the figmas and nens and also the black rock shooter PVC O.O", just cool. so at ard 4+, camping begins for the concert but was quickly kicked out O.o i was like.. OK... so maybe we cant camp so early... off i went to 3rd floor where almost all the cosplayers were, snapped some pics and went back up WHEN i saw a freakin long queue near the entrance. i went to ask and he said it was for the public viewing area. i was again... OK... and i went to queue near the very back now... THEN everyone had to move outside, which i thought was due to some congestion. and so out we all went and since the exit was near the middle, the queue positions got shuffled and i became even more back =.= and then, stood there for like quite long when FINALLY we can move in. so again we stood, waiting for the concert to start. i was like the 5th row but was still able to see the stage quite clearly. sadly, no photography was allowed =.= so i dared not try since this year was kinda stricter on that point. one word to describe the concert: SUGOI!!!!!!!!! YES, its just fun. Shokotan was like high as everyone else and the concert just went on great, Miku's part was short, but nonetheless still made us all high XD then came Aniki which continued the atmosphere. So in the end, there was an encore, with Shokotan and Aniki singing together and then the concert ended ard 9.40pm. i just cant get enuff of the concert atmosphere and I REALLY enjoyed myself XD woo~~~~ AFA day 1 is over... looking forward to tml =D
