DaiCon 2009: Chihara Minori's First SEA Tour


Tomorrow will be the final exam of my Diploma English Course, in which I hope I'll pass successfully. That will be one workload off my shoulders. Meanwhile, this is a little something on a will-be-major ACG-event in Cyberjaya.

On 11-12 July 2009, an expo will be held at Multimedia University grand hall, Cyberjaya, organized by EMiNA. EMiNA: Society of Modern Visual Culture is a student-interest society for fans of anime, manga, music and video games based in Multimedia University, Cyberjaya Campus.

The expo, named DaiCon, will start off at 11 a.m. and finished at 6 p.m. in those two days event. A few of DaiCon highlights are cosplay competition, figurine exhibition and Go lecturing by the Malaysian Weiqi Association. But the main attraction of the expo would be the appearance of Chihara Midori in her first ever tour to South East Asia.

Debuted as a voice actress in 2004 as the role of Natsume Aya in Tenjou Tenge, her role as Nagato Yuki in Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu sparked a boom in her popularity. Since then, she has taken part in many popular works such as Minami-ke and D.C. II: Da Capo II as well as excelling as a singer.

She will be holding a Q&A panels with the fans on Saturday(11th July) and a special performance on Sunday(12th July). You can visit her official website here.

There's a high chance that I'll attend to this expo, as I'm great fan of Haruhi. One of the character's seiyuu is coming to Malaysia, and surely this is a great opportunity not to be missed.
