Midori na Silhouette

Pardon my absence again. ^^; The one thing I’ve been able to keep (fairly) up-to-date with during my absence, is events. And so, here’s one that’s just around the corner: 100% Gempak Starz.

Last Thursday, Malaysia’s first Bunkasai was held at UCSI university, down at Cheras.

In short, I was not impressed. ^^;

If you want to attend this event but are not sure how to get to the PWTC, you can check out this useful page.

Looks like they have some pretty cool prizes for cosplayers to win. As of now, I am unsure if I will be attending this event. Will let you guys know via a twitter update.

If any of you readers are going to cover this event, do let me know, and I will be sure to link you up.

Comic Fiesta! That is the name of one of Malaysia’s biggest otaku events. Similar to the Japanese Comiket (but on a much, much smaller scale), CF is a place for artists and the like come to display and sell some doujin work.

As you can see in the above picture, this year’s CF was held at Sunway Pyramid, on 20th and 21st December.

Upcoming soon, is the Malaysian Comic Fiesta- an event that’s organized and run by fans and volunteers.

First off, the details-

Comic Fiesta 2008
Sunway Pyramid Convention Hall
20th - 21st December 2008
11 AM to 7 PM

To enter, you will require tickets, and there are three kinds of tickets for you to get- Edu-Bulk, Pre-Order, and On-the-spot tickets. Two day tickets (Edu-Bulk and Pre-Order) cost RM25 each, while one day tickets (On-the-spot) cost RM15. If you’d like more info, please refer to their respective links.

And for those who intend to go there just to cover the event, you will first need to take a look at the strict photography rules and regulations over here.

For more info, you can check out their website here.

There will be cosplayers there to see, doujins to buy, and I believe some booths will be bringing figures too (I think the figures are only on display though).

So, who’s going to be there? I’m still juggling with the idea, though it’s pretty likely that I will be attending.

I was highly impressed after seeing the lovely Sheryl Nome cosplay in yesterday’s post, and so I thought I’d look for more pictures of the cosplayer.

This 20-year-old cosplayer goes by the name “Omiya”, and her cosplaying is good! She even does well as a reverse trap. She lives in Shanghai, and is capable of speaking some English.

Allen Walker @ D.Gray-man

Lelouch @ Code Geass

Mukuro Rokudo @ Katekyou Hitman Reborn!

Kyoya Hibari @ Katekyou Hitman Reborn!

Asuka (Gothic) @ Neon Genesis Evangelion

Ciel Phantomhive @ Kuroshitsuji

For me to post up all her cosplay photos would be unfair to her, so if you want to check out more of her cosplay pictures, you can visit her at either one of the following:

Omiyalotus @ deviantART
Д∵ＢlAＣK~ＬOtUＳ←

Some pictures on her site, Д∵ＢlAＣK~ＬOtUＳ←, cannot be found in her dA account, and vice versa. You shouldn’t have any trouble navigating through her site even though it’s mostly in Chinese. The important buttons are in English ^^; (Hint: Click on Photo)

Do check out her awesome Sheryl cosplay at her site.
