Upcoming Convention: Ozine Fest 2012

So we come alive from yet another hiatus (I blame work) to point you towards Ozine Fest 2012, which happens on April 13-15, 2012, at the not-so-surprising venue of Megatrade Halls 1 and 2, SM Megamall. I have been out of the loop, so I don’t know if there’s anything new, but let’s just say I think we’ll know what to expect. Not that there’s anything wrong about it.

Scheduled activities are, again, the usual bunch of individual and group cosplay competitions, battle of the bands, karaoke contest, and art contest. They’ll also be having their staple maid cafe and host club, and toy display. Too only thing new I see, and therefore have no idea about is this thing they call Gundam Caravan. Really, nfi…

Not enough recent anime in my opinion. Maybe I’m just not watching the same thing the average Filipino otaku watches. Oh well…

This is really a male mahou shoujo character...
