There are so many hardcore pros in this gallery, so mine's nothing special compared to them lol. Personally, I feel like I went pretty hard this year though. Since VAs are visiting Korea more often lately, I'm looking forward to next year even more. 1. Kubota Miyu Day & Night (1/11) First event of the year, felt great getting a random bromide with a handwritten signature. It's been so long I barely remember anything though lol.





2. Nijigasaki Screening Part 1~3 (2/22) Saw Aguri and Homoto. Doing 3 sessions cost a bit, but since Nijigasaki is my main weeb content, I didn't mind. They'll come for the Chapter 2 stage greeting next year too, right...?



3. Ogura Yui Day & Night (5/17) The hype died down a lot compared to her 1st visit to Korea, but it was still worth seeing. It felt a bit lacking because there were no raffles for autographs or anything? Feels like they're especially stingy with signs.






4. Kanno Mai KBS Day & Night (8/16) First time attending an event in Japan. She was super freakin' cute, and since there was a livestream, I can rewatch it. The female fan ratio was surprisingly high, and the staff made the program interesting. But the talk segment was only a tiny bit at the start, and the rest was basically Kan-mai's karaoke time lol. She sings well though.









5. Kito Akari Day & Night (9/27) Gavin Art Hall is the GOAT. Distributing handwritten signed posters to everyone as a bonus gift was some world-class generosity. The outfits were a bit mid, but the live corner was great since I knew most of the songs.






6. Maeda Kaori Day & Night (11/1) Didn't think this would be my last of the year, but due to the AGF drought and failing to get Kessoku Band tickets, the season ended right there. Maeda in person is totally smol and cute. The choreo for the live part was hard so it was tough to follow along, but it was fun lol.






Next year, I'm planning to attend Nijigasaki's live in Japan starting from January. Wonder who else will come next year...
"OP lived every VA fan's dream year, but the comment section is a total warzone featuring everything from envy and stickers to the 'Sil-be' viral tag and out-of-nowhere political rants."
