Tokyo Anime Fair 2009

posted 09/03/25

 

 

Last week, once again Tokyo Big Site was hosting one of the biggest industry events in the Otaku realm: Tokyo Anime Fair. And since it is even normal by now to expect cosplayers during the Game Show, there was no doubt one could see more of that once the halls embeded in the four flipped pyramids begin to fill with the crowds.

Besides watching Anime characters come turn more or less into 3D versions there was of course a lot new promotion material to be seen, including the new Hellsing Ultimate video especially aimed at the foreign audiences  as well as the huge Gurren Lagan space.

In the end it was mostly about networking and seeing some nice characters like this Alicia from Valkyrie Chronicles, a game which now also has it's very own Anime version coming up.
