1. I actually didn't really care about this event just to buy real anime products/goods. Isn't the event supposedly be an open event for free circles (doujinka, etc) out there and not just the acg goods?

2. If there were stores selling original acg goods here in malaysia, these events means nothing to me. Real hikkies do not need those meaningless events after all...

1.  AFA brings in the people/company that produce anime related stuff and you does not care about people who created those stuff that you watch?? doujin are not the main focus of AFA ... there's is already other event for doujin and stuff.

2. the availability of original stuff is good point i think...plenty of malaysian has the purchasing power and i have know quite a few people that is willing to spend on it ... i think the organizer saw the potential in the market here too.. that's why Philippines and Thailand have big anime fanbase and they didnt get AFA yet and we are lucky to have it once...

You misunderstood my first point.
By acg goods I mean those figurines, nendoroids, plushies, posters, which I don't really care. Of course I do care about the things I like. I purchase original goods for the past years (no, not the effing bootlegs). I got my manga and LN from Kino and I got my cd/dvds through tsuuhan.

Besides Bushiroad, I have never encountered any real anime or manga company/house such as Aniplex, Animate, Shueisha, Kodansha, Dengeki, etc.
And if you are talking about Animangaki and CF... ugh... those are even worst. Most local circles there macam syok sendiri.

See? You totally missed my point there.
The event and the organizers itself is fine but the people there? Let's talk about last CF and Animangaki. Almost 70% of the booth there were filled with that certain rampaging giant-related stuff. Yes, being a doujin circle it is fine to make your own theme whatsoever but to expect people having interest in those similar looking booths is the problem with most of these events. No wonder those vendors have no further interest in any ACG events here in Malaysia.

Trash talk? That is an honest opinion of mine. I am really sorry if I am being too rude.
