AnimeJapan 2017

I love Anime conventions! There will always be experience zones, new exciting news and lovely merchandises from my favourite animes. Despite being in Japan, I hardly have a chance to attend those because of my busy schedules. I should really find time to immerse myself in those events whenever possible.

Fortunately, I had the honour of working for Sozo once again, this time helping them with their WOWJAPAN channel's coverage of AnimeJapan 2017. It was great meeting and working with new and familiar faces again! I also got a chance to see anime booths showcasing upcoming and current animes titles. Since I was there, I took the chance to visit booths and shops that sold Sword Art Online's merchandises and got myself a set of Kirito and Asuna's sword mark logo ball point pen!

I'm just so obsessed with this anime at the moment. I remember 'dropping' the anime after several episodes of it in season one, but I had to go back and finish the series after watching the new movie, Sword Art Online: Ordinal Scale. I went as far as introducing it to B (He really liked the series!), and watching the movie twice; the second time on IMAX 4D at Toho Cinemas in Shinjuku. I personally recommend watching it in 4D because it offered a better immersion into the battle scenes of the movie. I was blown away after watching it a second time, no doubt, if I could I would watch it a third time in 4D.


Once again, I would want to express my thanks to wowjapan team for entrusting me with hosting some parts of the coverage of AnimeJapan 2017. It was a great experience and I learnt a lot from this. I wish all of you the best in the future and I look forward to seeing everyone again!

いつもお世話になったSozoと WOWJapanチームの皆さん本当にありがとうございました。この二日間に沢山勉強になったので、本当に感謝の気持ちがいっぱいです。これからもよろしくお願いします!
