Thousands or even tens of thousands of Japanese pop culture enthusiasts (anime, game, cosplayers) filled the Kuala Lumpur Convention Center, December 20-21, 2019.

In this annual event, cosplayers can express their creativity in choosing costumes and makeup resembling game and anime characters.

To make it more exciting, cosplaying is best done in groups. One of the groups that performed exceptionally was the Boku Hero no Academia cosplayer team.

Sony Pictures also livened up Comic Fiesta 2019 by presenting a special panel for their latest film, THE GRUDGE. This new installment will be released in Indonesian cinemas on December 31.

Unknown to the young people who filled the hall panel of THE GRUDGE, Sony has already invited the Kayako squad (ghost in JU ON) to surprise the whole hall.

John Cho sent a video apology for not being able to attend the panel. Instead, he prepared two special clips of THE GRUDGE for the audience. Cheers followed after the clips were played.

"Did any mystical experiences happen during filming?" Unfortunately, both Nic and Lin Shaye answered that nothing happened. "Even if it did, I would be very disappointed because it would disrupt the film production process," he joked.
