AFA09 was... OK for me. It was fun because I was hanging out with friends, but I guess either I wasn't walking around the event hall enough or didn't take a look at some of the talks and stage events enough, but I didn't find the event itself... fun.

For one, cosplayers who missed pre-registration weren't entitled to free passes. I do not understand the reasoning behind it, as and I were in full costume when we asked if we could be allowed entry.

So we spent the first day outside, and we went in on the second day. Didn't strike me as an event that differed greatly from other events, but I probably felt so because I missed all the stage events, like the cosplay competition, as well as the concerts. Second day was productive, because I learnt how to play Weib Schwarz. I might pick it up...
