The Tokyo International Anime Fair (known as “TAF”) is the world’s largest anime exhibition. Held every spring at Tokyo Big Sight, the exhibition features a “trade fair” with booth exhibits by anime-related companies, “events” including spectacular stage performances and theater movie showings/displays, and the “Tokyo Anime Awards” in which outstanding anime works are presented with awards. Every year the exhibition attracts the attention of people throughout the world for its extensive program. Through the kind support of a diversity of people inclusing business users, families, and anime fans, TAF 2006 (held in March 2006) featured exhibits by 256 companies (73 from overseas) and welcomed a record 98, 984 visitors over the four days of the event.

I was fortunate enough to be in Tokyo when the Tokyo International Anime Fair/Festival opened its doors to the public. I got to go to the Fair on the last day…March 25. And believe me, it was well worth it.

The venue is the Tokyo Big Sight. To say that the venue was BIG is an understatement. The Tokyo Big Sight was an impossibly huge complex. The TAF only occupied 3 exhibit halls of the west wing…and it took more than 15 minutes just to reach the exhibit hall entrance from the main entrance. More »

Movie schedules for the month of hearts. Know what’s showing on filipino cinemas. Nuff said. Thanks to TBreak BTW.
