arkadymac.com is proud to be an official media partner for Best of Anime (BoA) Summer LIVE, the hottest event this season. We at the website personally enjoy BOA events: fun attractions, amazing guests, wonderful performances, spacious and comfortable venues, courteous and organized staff, all of which made BOA a well-liked and enjoyable experience for all attendees.
As we rate BoA as one of the best cosplay events in the country, we were of course excited and looking forward to attending this convention. Also, being accepted as an official media partner, we promised to all of our dear readers hat we will do the best we can to give an equally exciting and comprehensive coverage of the event.
BoA Summer LIVE! is the new project of the team of The Best of Anime. From one of the biggest cosplay conventions in the country, “The Best of Anime (BoA),” comes a new project that is sure to make your summer even more exciting! Primetrade Asia, Inc. and Hero TV brings you “BoA Summer LIVE!” Set on May 1 (Manila) and May 4 (Davao), “BoA Summer LIVE!” is guaranteed to give you two rockin’ days of creativity, music and friendship.
The event featured a lot of interesting attractions, like booths, games, a dubbing workshop, karaoke contest, a cosplay competition, as well as performances by J-Pop idol group, Starmarie.
The event featured BoA’s first ever Japanese guest performer, UchuSentai:NOIZ. Uchuusentai:NOIZ rose to fame with their own version of Kamikaze’s Narda, accumulating more than 600,000 views in just a week, and was warmly welcomed during their guesting at Best of Anime 2012. Now back in the Philippines, the well-loved Uchuusentai:NOIZ is set to rock the country’s major cities, Manila and Davao.
UchuSentai:NOIZ is a five-member band composed of Angel Taka (vocals), Kotaro (guitar), Kyo (bass), Masato (guitar/vocals), and Yamato (drums). Formed in 1999, the band claims to hail from outer-space and is here on earth for a mission to protect peace through live performances and tours. The band is identified with the “visual kei” genre, a type of fashion characterized by heavy make-up as well as flashy hairstyles and costumes, passionate live shows and on-stage antics. Their music is very eclectic and has many different elements from genres such as punk, pop, metal, and hip-hop.
Everyone was on their feet during the concert. UchuSentai:NOIZ lived up to their reputation of being a very exciting and charismatic band, and the audience was always clamoring for more. BoA Summer Live didn’t coddle or hide their international guests like what other conventions did. UchuSentai:NOIZ was there mixing it up with the crowd, diving into them, shaking hands and going face-to-face with them as they performed their great OPM covers and their own set of original songs. By the end of the performance, everyone was thrilled and glad to have become part of this amazing experience.
