I�m afraid this post will now be drowned in the sea of AFA posts due to its lateness, but I don�t really mind. There�s not enough blogs out there that provide coverage to our local cons, so there�s no way I can just give up writing this. And besides, the cosplay competition I witnessed (for the first time, since I usually don�t make it to the cosplay catwalk proper) was too fun to be missed (guess I owe that to some of the cosplayers and the officemates / barkada I hanged out with, but still, fun)

A brief intro for starters: Think of AME (Anime Manga Enthusiasts) as the counterpart of Genshiken; it�s the anime/manga organization in one of the top universities in the country, UP Diliman. I don�t have much inside info about this organization since I�m neither part of it, nor do I hail from the aforementioned university (Animo LaSalle!), but from what I gather, AME is most known for the annual anime event they organize, and has since become one of the most anticipated anime cons each year.
