NYAF 2009 Wrap Bullet Style
September 27th, 2009
Tired and fatigued, but fleeting memories need made permanent.
- I can probably speak a lot more about the VIP system again, now that I have been one. But it’s definitely a mixed bag. Again.
- Loot.
- Yui Makino is srsbzns and aloof, but she’s got more than what it takes. As both seiyuu and musical artist.
- Tomino, well, speaks his mind, and what’s going on in his mind is something that will take a lot of patience and understanding to get out of it.
- WAH is a load of fun. [I would namedrop everybody AND more, but only in a full write-up. Plz forgive.]
- So is yakiniku.
- AKB48 makes me not want to play idolm@ster. But that…girl with the twintails… she’s my oshimen or w/e. I also like paranda’s take on things. Now just need a freaking image index with names. Also, the rock set was pretty rock-ish. Those I:heart:NY shirts are also p. hawt on them. This might be useful.
- As said, bkub is awesome. *POOL* *POOL*
- Expensive but moe 360 side scroller is moe.
- The flowers? They did nothing.
- Driving in NYC has its perks.
- Oh, yeah, Cenco…rolls.
- Aniplex is out of ammo for the year, I presume.
- Dubbing is improving.
- Relaxed con is really tiring.
- Food makes me happy, perhaps too happy. And sometimes I go to Pinkberry just to get some variety.
- Famous Halal Guys is “yasui” as it is both dinner and breakfast. A must for people curious about midtown food culture and unique eats.
- Random Japanese dealers and vendor in my dealer’s room? VERY MUCH APPROVED! Dealer’s room is boring if you go to a lot of cons, and this is one sure fire way to juice things up. Like, finding Aoi Tada’s indie albums? What the hell, right? Like what’s the odds of that? The odds of me finding that in Tokyo going to random stores is probably astronomically small, as is. And there’s more.

Is the image before or after we almost burnt the place down?
Before.

AKB was pretty fun live. I would love to rewatch the animal cosplay song - need Nico or YouTube plz.
I also liked the dealer’s room, and meeting everyone was super cool.
I reviewed Cencoroll the other day. Doubtless some will disapprove of my giving less than 100% approval, but frankly I felt like it would seriously benefit from a remake using staff, a budget, and an experienced director/producer.
PS: Glad to see you liked my WAH interview, as it were. :P
Actually I’m not sure if I liked your WAH interview. I mean, I’m glad you also asked him the same questions I asked (and considering you have much less of a chance to do so) and got the straight story from him, but lols.
Alex: LOL silly me for not checking the obvious place. I think it might be Sumire Sato or Erina Ono. Need better pix :v
For reference, also http://www.saeyaka.com/2009/09/official-blog-announces-members.html for list of AKB48ers at NYAF. No Team B!
Wow that is a lot of loot.
it just looks like a lot. most of it is complementary too… the two artbooks are what kill :(
But lolis? :P
Yeah, I pretty much just asked what I wanted to know. I guess I could have asked readers what they wanted to hear if I had known I would meet WAH for sure, but it was impromptu.
Thanks for your feedback.
LOL
>>I think it might be Sumire Sato or Erina Ono. Need better pix :v
I saw some Erena Ono DVDs on Amazon.jp when I was pondering if I wanted to buy anything to try to get signed. They looked… entertaining. ;)
This forum (http://stage48.net/forum/) has some more pics of the girls. I liked Sayaka Akimoto (I thought she looked pretty tall on stage but she’s only 5′5″) and Tomomi Itano (4′11″ :x).
Wait, did you ever tell you if you prefer tall or short? 5′5 is probably a tad above average for Japanese women.
