Anime Festival Asia 2015 (AFASG15), the region’s biggest premier festival for Japanese Popular Culture and anime, last weekend from the 27 November – 29 November 2015, offering the latest content and action-packed activities. Held at Suntec City Convention Centre, Anime Festival Asia saw over 80,000 local and international visitors last year.
The whole of level 3 & 4 has been taken up for this year’s AFA.This is great news as the amount of cosplayers & people attending has significantly increased over the years.
Our favourite part of the event would be the Creators Hub. There is 100 booths of fan-made merchandise ranging from badges, prints, bookmarks & more! All at all the beautiful & lovely works!
Look at the crowd!
Here is a booth from one of our favourite artist, Pandabaka.
There is the Asia Anisong Auditions (AAA) booth where people could sing it out.
Not forgetting the cute & fancy figurines…
