Capping our quickie coverage of Anime Festival Asia Indonesia 2012...
The second day of AFAID was no less crowded than the first day, but at least there were moar cosplayers evident. :)
baka-girl and I missed the 1030am Akatsuki Tsukasa Talkshow (she's a famous cosplayer from Taiwan) and the Animax Asia screening of Eureka 7 AO feat. STEREOPONY at the main stage, so recapping from AFAID's Featured Anime page:
