Death Meets Moe

Phew! TONS and TONS of pictures to process from the photo shoot sessions of both days. Considering Jcdish did a fine job on the previous write ups (much thanks again!), and god knows when i would actually get my own write up done, i figured that the most appropriate thing to do now is to get out those much awaited pictures

Another thing to note, based on past ACG event experiences,  it would still take time for me regardless on the full day coverage pictures, and since most people are more eager for the main dish more than anything, i will first do a “highlight gallery” for Daicon 2009 Day 1, which are a few K-On cosplay photoshoot sessions. Later on i will post the full coverage pictures.

As 6pm rolled around, the much anticipated special guest of DaiCon – Chihara Minori’s Q&A and autograph signing session finally began. Just before that, the DaiCon committee had ushered ticket holders and media people into the stage area, and had been trying to whip the crowd into shouting out ‘Chihara!’ ‘Minori!’ to greet Minorin when she showed up. These efforts kept falling flat halfway through as the crowd ran out of enthusiasm – that was until Minorin showed up, at which point everybody found a renewed surge of energy and wild cheering, as well as the chanting of ‘Minorin!, Minorin!’, set the tone for an amazing Q&A session.
