Attending a Japanese Festival

      In the beginning of September, my friend and I went to Mall Dinoyo City Malang to attend an annual Japanese festival called Daisuki! We went there before the event begin but there are so many people already waiting there. Before we entered the place, we must qieuing to buy the ticket first. The ticket was shaped like bracelet that often we found when we go to the amusement park. Beside the ticket, we also got two stickers (One to ourself and one to vote the booth that we like) and a coupon.

     After entering the gate, my friend and I walked around the festival venue and looked at the booths. There are so many booth that can we visit. They provided anime merchandise (Like key chain, clothes, and accessories), games, gundam and action figure exhibition, and Japanese foods (Like taiyaki, dorayaki, takoyaki, etc. The first booth I visited was anime merchandise booth because I want to buy the key chain of my favorite anime character. The booth was really crowded. I had to jostle to see the goods sold. Second booth was a sticker and postcard booth, they asked us to write our future goals. After that, they asked us to choose between sticker and postcard. And they gave it freely. The third booth was a booth that displayed my favorite anime action figure, so I give it my vote sticker. The stand guard seems really happy, she thanked me and gave me a cellphone strap. I was so surprised and happy.

    As the time goes by, there are some cospleyer entered the venue. Some cosplayers were cosplaying my favorite anime character. So, I asked to take photos with them. They were so kind. Their clothes and make up were so beautiful. There was a cosplay competition at 2 AM, but not all cosplayer join it.

    Beside the booths, there were some performances performed there. Like bands that sang anime soundtrack and cover dance. My friend and I wanted to see all the performance especially the cover dance, but it was performed at night and we were already tired so we decided to go home.
