Japan Expo X Tokyo Crazy Kawaii: Part 2 (Notall & Others)

Time to visit some social idols!


Social idols notall

Social idols? Yeap thats how Notall presented themselves as such. In the advent of social media where people love to post and upload photos online, this group capitalise on the trend by allowing fans to take photos and videos of their performances. Other usual idol groups rarely have such allowance. Just add in hashtags like #notall_photo or #notall_movie to twitter should you take photos and videos respectively. True to the 'social idol' tag, their songs and even costumes are a collaborative effort with fans.

Japan Expo X Tokyo Crazy Kawaii - Part 1 (Akishibu Project & FESTIVE)



Bangkok recently held a massive J-Culture event in Central World. The event is so massive that I have to cut my articles into 2 parts.

This event was supposed to be held last year August. However, 2 weeks prior to the event, Bangkok was hit by a horrific bomb blast which postphoned the event to another date. Perhaps in a show of support and solidarity, the line-up was increased for this event and we have no shortage of idol goodness.
