So I was over at the Singapore toys and comics convention like all other avid toy and manga enthusiasts. It’s pretty awesome we have something like this once in a while just to liven up our lives otherwise spent in solitude hurhur.

Nintendo was there in full blast with it’s WiiFit showcase as well as a few DS games, including the unreleased guitar hero world tour which was surprising. If ya haven’t seen that god awful DS ad, check this out on gametrailers. The wiifit booths drawn the most crowd, with kids lining up to try out that hulla hoop or soccer ball heading whatever. Having seen the wiifit balance board for the first time, I must say it’s pretty easy to cheat on it. I have seen kids get away from just wiggling their body bleh.

I will be starting a retrospective on metal gear solid in view of the impending release of the awesomeness that is mgs4 on the 12th of June, which coincidentally happens to be 10 years after the release of the original MGS on the PSX.

I started out playing the original mgs on the PC (yes I didn�t have a playstation damm). It was by far the most exhilarating game I ever played at that time, ok maybe except for ff7 but I digress.

This is Pyoro here! I will be contributing to the tedfox anime blog. By a stroke of good luck, he has allowed me to unleash my terror on this blog! MUAHAHAHA (rubs hand in glee)

�A bit about myself,

�

Singaporean,

Male (duh)

undergrad to be

anime and game enthusiast ( ya would have thought this would be self explanatory )

I realise that is a bit lacking but hey a man gotta have his privacy ya know. I can�t possibly let out every otaku obsession I indulge in. (fap fap fap)

�

How did I change upon this blog now? Ya wouldn�t believe it but tedfox is a patriotic citizen serving the great nation that is Singapore. So there I was serving the nation as a mindless drone in this unit (CLASSIFIED!!!!)� when I saw this dude come in with a face remarkably similar to Konata. He had the whole shebang with the mole and height (well except for the blue hair and the obvious sex). The otaku in me went wide and begun dreaming up eroge fantasies. I was exuberating so much lust that he came up to me and I screamed KONATA! And that is how I felt in love I mean met with Tedfox.

Tedfox AKA Konata

What will I be providing to readers as a contributor? Well I have no idea, this is my first time blogging and I would like to take my pace in finding my flow.

Ah well back to my macross frontier ost! Sheryl FTW!

Kknm is having a fairly interesting event these days. Chocolate Coronet vs Melon Pan

In summary, every $30 gives you a chance to vote, as well as a shot at the lucky draw.

Here are the prizes for the Lucky Draw:
1st Prize: Nintendo DS Lite
2nd Prize: Lucky Star Nendroid Set (Konata and Kagami)
3rd Prize: 6 Months Subscription to Megami Magazine
4 x Consolation Prizes: $25 Vouchers from Nandemoya

The prizes look great though. However, I just cannot think of what I would possibly want that can add up to $30. Maybe I can buy some birthday gifts.

KKNM still owes me one preorder though, wonder if it’s here yet. It’s been delayed since months ago. In fact, the last time I promoted their event, and went for it… I didn’t get my blogger’s gift! something about out of stock. Aha. I’ll probably still go down for their event again though. Just to look see look see.

Every year during the summer period, The Japanese School organizes a summer festival, just like those in Japan, which is open to the public. Perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in Jap culture.

Date : Saturday, 25 August 2007
Time : 6pm
Venue : The Japanese School (Changi Campus)
11 Upper Changi Road North

If i’m not wrong, there’s probably a shuttle bus from Tanah Merah MRT. It’s also accessible by Bus no. 2. Memories at the back of my mind say something about tickets. However, I do not have the full details, anybody can clarify for me? Anyway, it’s always damn crowded, so be sure to go there way early.

Feel free to dress up like a jap! Not compulsory of course. They do rent out Yukatas at the school, as well as service for helping you put it on. (it’s way tougher than it looks)

Anyway, seeing how it’s on the same day as Chara Fest, looks like I’ll go down after visiting Chara Fest? (damn, this would make for a very tiring day) Now I just need people to go with. haha.

(and you never know when you might just meet girls who are looking for summer romance =X )

KKnM (Merchandise Counter inside Anime House) will be closed from 15th August - 21st August 2007 to prepare for this year’s Chara Fest. Business will resume as usual on the 22nd of August.

You can check out the list here after they update it on the 23rd August.

See you there?? Haha. Damn. It’s going to be damn crowded. Sigh. I’m just going to get poorer

(I really love the characters used for the poster. Gave me a chuckle)
