those of you attending AnimeFest at Paradigm Mall tomorrow please be on guard! There was a hornivore out of the cage today taking advantage of the crowded area.
hope event organizers keep their eyes open too.

Netizens were understandably angry at what happened at the event. Some of them said that it’s upsetting because cases of molestation have always been present at events like these.
They also voiced their disappointment because molesters always ruin the event for others and reminded everyone to keep watch.
Anyone who is groped or harassed in any way is advised to yell and bring attention to themselves for help.
The organisers of Anime Fest were also urged to set up a hotline for victims to report.
TRP is waiting for Anime Fest organiser Comic Fiesta and Paradigm Mall to release a statement soon.
Oh god it has started again.
