I visited International Manga Anime Fair in Kyoto on September 8.
I felt the coming of a new era of Japanese Manga,
it is the advent of a new age,
after old era finished.
Because there were no "Dragon Ball",or "Dorae-mon".
Instead,there were new manga such as "Hakuouki","Madoka-Magika",
etc.
I found funny cosplay girls here:)
The air in this hall was thick of the enthusiasm of the participants.
The title of this Manga is "Scissiors and dogs require nice handling".
This is "Hakuou-ki".
"Magical girls Madoka-Magica".
This woman is drawing Manga using PC.
Many artworks are displayed in this gallery.
"Chihaya-furu" is featuring a girl who plays Japanese cards game called "Hyakunin-ishu".
This is also the original artwork of the artist.
"Sengoku-Basara" is famous TV game.(PlayStation3).
Every visitor can try the newest version of "Sengoku-Basara" like this.
It is really powerful and exciting game!
To be continued...
It has to be interesting to be in the middle of such an event. Even if I'm not a manga specialist, I'm glad that many of them are transformed in TV series (not only computer games)! Thanks for sharing this, Kumiko!
