The first Anime Contents Expo looks to have finally got off to a successful start, with hordes of otaku in attendance and all the top shows well in evidence.
The event’s first public day was well attended by photographers, and the scenes visible certainly reinforce the notion that TAF and ACE have decided to divvy up their coverage into kiddy anime and commercial sales for Ishihara’s minions at TAF, and everything else for ACE – with virtually all the good stuff hogged by ACE:
The Animate booth had a 3 hour wait, with the queue too long to fit even in Makuhari Messe’s cavernous halls:
The event’s food has been the subject of some opprobrium – diners had to queue for 2 hours in order to buy some distinctly lacklustre anime-flavoured food, with the catering having apparently been used as an unsubtle way of bilking otaku desperate to get at various anime trinkets accompanying the sloppy, overpriced chow:
Yayoi’s home cooking unfortunately does not appear likely to go down as one of the event’s high points.

I want that Kuma and that Evangelion smartphone!
I really wish I could've been there.
Evangelion smartphone is mandatory for me.
And I think Saber's bike is my fav too (if only that's a real bike)
I read that it's real. But it couldn't be registered on the streets because of the spiky front.
Doubtfull... Anything can be registered, they just have to present it for inspection without the front. That's what everybody do in this country... Some people even keep 2 engine for their cars, one for daily use, and on swapped for the inspection day...
You have to understand that like for visa, vehicle inspection certificate are delivered for the status on the day of the inspection and valid for the legal period (2 or 3 years) whatever is done during this period don't change the validity of the certificate.
That Madoka~ Hmmmmmm.... Delicious~
evangelion smartphone indeed, but i would like the madoka statue. just to have it stand in the entrance of my house.
TAF will soon be dead! Yay!
EVA phone is a heavily customized Android variant. Hopefully someone will at least leak the OS customization stuff.
Also, DEM TITS!
Everytime I see fondable boobs I think: "It's a trap!"
I love traps O_o
DAT CHICKEN SANDWICH!!!!!!!
Sandvich! OM NOM NOM!
Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai is getting an anime adaptation in July. Fuck yeah. Love the manga.
That Evaphone: shut up and take my money!
Looks about more fun than TAF. Well, next time then.
nyanko sensei!
I love Nyanko-Sensei. That anime is really good. Only wish there would be a bit more beautiful women in it. And no NOT moe or ecchi women I mean beautiful.
I wonder what it say on those big breats.
That. Fucking. Phone. Holy shit.
This event is depending way too much on female character images. I can't say there is diversity... unless you count Mecha and phones.
Man, I wish I were there... Heard that both the Nanoha seiyuu were at the Nanoha booth.
Also, it would be hilarious if someone were to make a side-by-side comparison between the attendance pics of both the TAF and the ACE.
...this is kind of off topic, but even the acronym of the Anime Contents Expo is ace!
What did thoes boobs say on the writing (besides "boing boing boing")?
Best part of this con wasn't mentioned: The 2nd season of Ore no Imouto.
Victory? Victory!!!
that was a shabby looking package of bean sprouts.
fried bean sprouts? Is that what I'm looking at in the last picture?
Don't mock Yayoi's cooking, it's all she can afford.
Yup, that's what it looks like. I'm not sure why Artefact called the food overpriced because back when I was in Tokyo the restaurants had similar prices as that. The drinks are overpriced, but the food is priced quite well.
I want to say "yep" but your name compells otherwise...
Yayoi would kick your ass for not finishing that!
By god I will finish them even with tears rolling down my cheeks. Anything to make Yayoi happy.
does someone know what picture 38 and 46 are from?
Found this on 38: Fairys (フェアリス). Apparently a PC game
So, how much for the Madoka statue? No, really.
oh god.I need watch it.
Someone please tell me what picture 36-38 are is it an Anime or visual novel and name please :)
kyuubey strikes again
Giant Excalibur and giant Avalon are giant.
They sure do love Haruko's boobs!
What does it say on picture 43 & 49?
whose dick do i need to suck to get the evangelion phone tbh
Nyanko-sensei! I waaaant yoouuuu!!!
Of this crowd at least, Aquarion is the MECH BOSS.
—But wait, no half-priced BENTO??!
Human-sized mecha displays are ALWAYS BOSS! Interactive titty-displays are nice, too.
what the hell am I reading?
Good news, I'd say.
Evangelion phone f-king where
DAT NOODLE
Oh fun =D!!!
If I had one of those Maken-ki standouts, I'd rub it every day for good luck.
Motorboat those boobies.
Should I choose a 2D girl with 3D boobs,or a 3D girl with 2D boobs?
