Anime Festival Asia 09 Vocaloid Cosplay Photos And Miku’s Concert Event Coverage

The crowds of people coming for AFA 09, together with the cosplayers.

Well, it may be a bit late posting this after the Anime Festival Asia (AFA) event ended on last Sunday. But that’s because I am busy preparing the cosplay photos ready to be included in this post. And just to refresh everyone’s mind on what AFA is, it is an animation convention event held in Singapore celebrating all things related to Japanese animation and popular culture.

This year’s AFA has been a fine one as we get to witness even more Vocaloid-related cosplays as Hatsune Miku officially appeared for the first time in Singapore for her first performance outside of Japan. So just continue reading after the break for more cosplay and event descriptions~

Also, I would like to thank Vocaforum member Frozen Fairy for kindly providing the photos which he has took for the first day of AFA, thanks so much Fairy-san! ^_^
