Shu Yamino HK live was a very interesting and funny experience as the host was very entertaining and very much funny during the guessing the art. some fans was using Japanese to tell what shape of the item and they was very shy, Shu had to encourage them to speak into the mic as he couldn’t hear them.

 

We did have 1 male guest on stage to play the game with him and it was a completely exciting experience for everyone, the only surprise I have was taking a group picture at the end of the event with all the staff sitting beside me. I have no clue what happened to me and the staff at the back seating, I’m gone somehow? I don’t even seem to find myself in the picture? lol!? 

 

I did manage to go to the second half of the show as I was more interested on the second part of the show and we finally get to see the two virtual singers in the show, from Malaysia to Hong Kong and Japan. it was very enjoyable, sadly I had to leave after the second part of the show due to the timeline and I was not in my best shape due to having a  coughing fit. I’m going to share the full pictures of Shu Yamino event and a few snips of the second half of the show.

 

I’m so excited to say, thank you to all the staff and managements that was amazing at the event, although a tiny minority of incidents happened outside the event hall, wit was understandable and everything was handled well.

I will post clips of the third performance if I managed to get a hold on them.

all represented singers YouTube and other social media will be listed below!

Yesterday was Culture Polygon -『Online Fusion Animation Concert Hall』 although it was heavy on the rain. 

The concert was very enjoyable, the atmosphere was so relaxing and peaceful, the first artist performing was Miko, she as was sort of nervous but the song she choose was extremely beautiful and relaxing.

she has a very cute and sweet performing style which was very cute, although she was extremely nervous and shy.

The second performer was Yucco Miller who is a saxophone player who did a few beautiful songs that was so good and so relaxing, the cover song for “Lemon,” by Yonezu Kenshi was so relaxing and beautiful, but at the same time it had its own unique sound and feeling to it.

Although it was mainly written to a Yonezu Kenshi grandfather, it has its own meaning and they have their own unique sound. 

 

The third performer was sort of excited and at the same time had a very adorable and cute, although he did introduce himself in Cantonese it was funny, he had to ask the question did he get the pronunciation right, hahaha!

The remix he had edited and performed is so so good and it was enjoyable.

The fourth performance was the cute and funny bass player Fami, she had a very adorable and has sweet personality when she greeted everyone in English, I enjoyed all her song choices as it was adorable and it suits her personality and style.

 

The fifth performer was Tam, because it was a drum / Saxophone and Violin collaboration, it was a hit carry of the show, he brought a lot of laughter and joy to the show, it was so so fun! 

Their collaboration performance was so so good and it was very special!?

The sixth performance had a small amount of delay, and Tam the violinist came out to entertain everyone while, ActiveNeets prepared himself, it was awesome, the keyboard performance was perfectly balanced with the music and it was so fun!?

The collaboration performance between everyone was amazing and it was so fun seeing them playing together and being able to share their passion!? 

Thank you to all the ACGHK staffs / PR members for their hard work and dedication to this project, it was beautiful and very fun watching everyone of them getting the chance to see their favorite artists perform on stage!?

Cosplay Competitive Contestant 2023

ACGHK Day 1

 

due to some issues on my end, I arrived around 2:55pm and me and my photographer slipped ways, I when directly to the performance stage and started to realise it was live hosted on a radio station platform as well, I immediately got interested on the new artist and found their music and melody are very unique and interesting, as everyone was working with each other, as some approached each other by singing competitions and was close contestants from the past.

 

then I when to look around the booths and found a lot of interesting self designed and unique figures, the Gundam figure competition showing was also alarming as their paint job and their quality skills was a chef kiss!

My photographer ran to find cosplayers inside the exhibition hall to take cosplay photos, we will later show them once we get the approval from the agency!

then me and my photographer gathered up and spent the rest of the day taking pictures for cosplayers and we will be returning their pictures once we decided to fix our white light blasting moment to all pictures we have made!?

 

my own point of view: everything was neatly handled, altogether with the agencies rushing and double checking and preparing on site media registering/ registration for outlet media’s services for those who was unable to access the site on time to get their applications processed on time!?

 

Pictures will not be appearing immediately after this is completed/ posted due to waiting for approval from event management and agency!?

Official cosplay point of view will be posted tomorrow!?

[usagi-ayumi]

ACGHK Day 2 

 

woke up to notice it was raining and some reason, I was late to cosplay stage performance again, x2 <- we didn’t bother finding the staff so we sort of stood at the gate and was mainly watching the performance outside the stage, at least we managed to get see the pretty costumes and cosplayers coming off stage.

 

although it was a raining day, it was packed with people and I had a wonderful time and experience meeting different artwork artists and other small booth vendors I missed. although a bit crowded, the air conditioning either was slightly on low or it was turn off, cause everyone was sweating!? or I was turning my pocket fan on too much, I wasn’t paying attention to the temperature!? so either I done goofed or the heat outside and inside was causing me to be confused lol

short but it was good!?

[usagi-ayumi]

 

ACGHK Day 3

 

Had to rush to the event hall to figure out I missed the last opening performance of the cosplay competition which i end up sort of scratching my head since it was raining and I got a temporary delay due to the weather being unstable.

Some reason I managed to make it to the Alipay Nijisanji EN Meet & Greet event and was able to take some small pictures of the Nijisanji EN members.

Actually knowing they are in love with Hong Kong food is a wonderful thing although there was a small delay in the game event because of the time schedule other than that it was a great event as we got to see wonderful cosplayers cosplaying as Doppio wearing POG jackets and holding their small tiny plushies so it was adorable.

 

Cosplay award somehow I end up standing outside with the audience and I have no reason or excuse to give as I am confusing myself with the pictures taken from outside the event stage and standing behind a huge ton of audience and get myself somehow trapped and becoming clueslee of the hold mess that could have been avoided but i hope tomorrow with the Mysta Rias meet and greet would be better and well planned than what happened today.

For now its time for me to get some rest.

[usagi-ayumi]

today is ACGHK day 4, well sort of rushed to the stage for Mysta Rias Live Graduation Finale Panel, while we somehow got stuck outside the stage entrance, my translator had the best idea to ask backstage staff for entry help, eh it was blocked off and we was going in for a wild ride, so I took a bit of a longer breath and got into the crowd explaining we had to be inside the panel stage to take some pictures of the stage Members and the audience/the artist himself, well I have to say uploading clips to a few social media to show the fans was a bit of a smart idea, now to the main topic as everyone know Mysta is graduating this month, September 27th, 2023!

I will be editing a very short 15 minute presentation of both events, which includes the opening ceremony, the music video shown and the crowds, and a few clips of the artist appearing!? For Mysta Rias part I will include the group / solo song he has sung, right now I am working on editing cosplayers photos and this video I am working on as well.

The video will not be uploaded on YouTube or other platforms, but it will be on my twitch stream~ for now I have to call a day out as I might have caught a flu? 
Last day tomorrow, I’ll do my best!?
