Decked out in their super cool costumes, cosplayers from all over Malaysia had already arrived at the event as early as 9.30 a.m. Famous anime and Vocaloid characters such as Hatsune Miku, Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy and Black Rock Shooter were among the many characters who were happily strolling around Help College of Arts and Technology that day. The visitors and other ACG (Anime, Comics and Games) fans that weren’t cosplaying during the event were busy snapping photos with their phones and cameras. Besides coming to see the cosplayers, most of the visitors were here to take a look at the many booths that had been set up specially for this event. Beautiful balljointed dolls (BJDs) were displayed at some of the booths while other booths sold anime merchandise such as posters, figurines, t-shirts and other interesting souvenirs. How excited would you be if you had the chance to see your favorite Sebastian Michaelis Nendoroid figurine face to face instead of through the computer screen?
