Chara Fest started out as a mini event that KKnM held at the shop to bring in exclusive merchandise from Japan to our customers. We wanted to bring in a little of the atmosphere that we experienced from events in Japan.

This is the 2nd year we are holding Chara Fest as part of A.C.M.E and we hope that this year will be more interesting as we bring in more activities and exclusive items for you to enjoy!

To start off the news corner for Chara Fest 2010, here's the first thing we would like to do this year, since everyone has been asking about it for a really long time:

There will be no Member's Priority Queue this year.

Club KKnM members, no worries, we will still plan something for you guys to say thank you for all the support you have given us in all our years of business! 

A.C.M.E Website is up online! We are preparing the contents. Everything will be ready very soon! Please drop by again!
