EOY 2014: What to expect


We are less then a month away from Events Of the Year 2014, one of the largest cosplay event in Singapore. This year due to the fact that Marina Barrage will be closed for renovations works the event is being push forward to the 2nd & 3rd of August. Also for this year, EOY will be a 2 days event instead of the 1 day event.
We are also proud to be the official media for the Festival this year.



Guest Nico Nico Dancers



マリス (Marisu), who also goes by the stage name Marice,  has performed at the popular Nico Nico Cho Party & Nico Nico Dance Masters in Japan. She does frequent collaborations with other Niconico dancers, namely Norakura (のらくら), Penta (足太ぺんた) and Kozue (愛川こずえ). She released her first solo dance “galaxias!” on 22 December 2011. The dance was choreographed by Yumiko, and first performed by Danceroid.

At the tender age of 13, she uploaded her first dance, a dance cover for “Hare Hare Yukai” in 2009 and has continued to garner many fans as she continues to showcase her talent on her video channels.
