This year’s edition of « Focus On » was held at Fadhel Ben Achour cultural center on 17/03/2018.
The theme of this edition was two major Shonen anime series: Dragon Ball, an anime that we all have fond memories of, and Boku No Hero Academia, another rising anime with a fresher, more modern take on the Shonen genre.
The event included interventions by special guests and avid DB and BNHA fans such as JET founders Zied Chebbi and M. Taher Ben Achour, one of the most enthusiastic DB item collectors, and Karim Ammar from Anime TN.
Heated debates have also taken place about the differences between old school and new generation shonen anime in addition to a very entertaining quiz about BNHA and DBZ.
An OST section has also been introduced by Zied Chebbi where fans of both anime had to associate famous OST music with scenes from the anime.
In the same concept, the winner of fan art contest was none other than Chedly Makhlouf with an amazing hybrid character between BD and BNHA.
Simultaneously, the second section of the event included a free to play corner with DB games such as Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3 and Dragon Ball Fighter Z.
The section also included an exhibition of games, figurines, and other collectible items of famous characters from both anime.
A section of paper craft was also available where people had the cut and assemble their own characters.
Some attendants also opted to doodle away in the drawing corner or get their portrait done by our own very talented artist, Myriam Amara .
All in all, the event was a successful one and allowed fans to reminiscence about their mutual passion. We look forward to further editions of this event and more interesting themes.
