Get ready for a great anime convergence as Hero TV brings you the grandest and most-anticipated anime fair for all kids and the kids at heart — the Hataw! Hanep! Hero 2006 (The H3 Anime Fair)! On the weekend of November 18 and 19, 2006, at the World Trade Center in Pasay City, Hero will hold a historic gathering of the biggest anime event in the country.

Brought to you by Hero TV, the no. 1 anime channel in the country today that features the craziest, the most action-packed, and most-loved cartoons, anime shows, and youth programs ever to hit the Philippine TV!

The H3 Anime Fair serves as the congregation of anime fanatics where they exchange ideas, make new connections, share possessions, and treasure new experiences. It also promoted the creation of anime organizations in colleges and universities across the country by taking this subculture to the main stream. In addition, fans get to experience the anime fever in its barest form. Fight with Naruto, duel in Yugi-oh, or race at Cyber Formula, and other exciting activities — all can be found in this exciting anime EB!

Expect popular online games to be there for loyal fans and gamers! To make this ultimate anime event even more spectacular, Level Up! games will deliver their own kind of excitement by bringing in their famous collection of online gaming hits: Ragnarok Online, RF Online, ROSE, and FreeStyle, together with its new line of online sensations: Pangya, Flyff, and Khan! And if you haven’t played any of these games yet, go ahead and try them yourself! Because at the event, you can play Level Up! games on sleek and powerful notebooks sponsored by Blue! Plus, to take on a more physical challenge, grab a Level Up! Passport because there are more surprises in store for you with these Level Up! activities:

Ragnarok’s Sumo Poring
Experience being an adorable Poring from Ragnarok! Look for the Sumo Poring activity booth and sign up for a match. Don’t worry, the rules are simple. You’ll be dressed up in an over-sized Poring suit and paired against another Poring like you. When the match starts, you must wrestle and shove your opponent out of the circular arena to win and get a prize.

RF’s Three-way Joust
It’s time to take your honor and glory up and onto a platform. Represent your race by participating in the RF’s Three-way Joust. Only three contestants at a time, one from each Race, will climb the pedestals. With helmets on and pugel sticks in hand, knock your opponents off their pedestals. Once a contestant falls off the pedestal, another contestant will take his/her place. The last one to remain standing on the pedestal wins a prize!

FreeStyle’s Shooting Stars
If you score a lot in FreeStyle, see if you can do it for real in FreeStyle’s Shooting Stars. Simply shoot as many baskets as you can within a certain time limit. The farther you are from the hoop, the higher points. Earn enough points to win the game and a prize.

And for hardcore Level Up! fans who know their games inside out, see if you can match wits with other gamers in activities like: Zennie o Bayong and Elems o Bawi!
