Maria + Holic

by aoshi_88 on Sunday, December 28th, 2008

Maria + Holic is one of the animes in my current watchlist for Winter 2008/2009. You’ll excuse the translator notes as he/she was doing it for the lulz, and even included a mention of *cough* Man-Faye.

Warning potential spoilers ahead, do not read if you don’t want it spoilered.

ComicFiesta 2008 Review

by aoshi_88 on Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008

Traditionally, most people including Kurogane and Shin, have split up their respective reviews and comments about Comic Fiesta into two parts, one for Day One and one for Day Two. Me not being much of a writer, and more of a photog, i instead have put all my thoughts into one post which i hope you’ll find interesting and not to dry.

First off, congrats to the Comic Fiesta committee for organizing and running the most successful Comic Fiesta event yet. Compared to what it was last year, three years ago and when it first started, it’s come a long way. However, over the past number of times it has been held, not much attention was paid to fan comments and feedback. This time though, things have definitely improved.

ComicFiesta Recap, Best Of

by aoshi_88 on Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008

Because i’m not writing the CF report, i get to blogwhore on my favourite shots of Comic Fiesta, held on the 20th and 21st of Fecember. I did get a chance to do a proper shoot with the Hellsing group on the first day and with Alicia’s Hayate cosplay on the second day.It’s amazing what proper lighting will do to a photograph.

Small update to CF08

by aoshi_88 on Monday, December 22nd, 2008

Expect the photos from CF08 Day One and Day Two to appear on Shrine and here in a few hours. I’m in the process of editing and post-processing so it’s going to take awhile.

I’ll also add more EPIC DannyChoo as they come along.

PS – Danny blogged on his cosplay counterpart yesterday.

Hi Danny!
