Nyancon at Antipolo City — 15 May, 2016

I’m back in Antipolo once again, but this time, I went to NyanCon 2016 (dubbed as “The NyanContinues”) at Robinsons Place Antipolo just earlier. Here are few of the shots that I got en route and on location: LRT Line 2 Extension It’s good to know that the Light Rail transit’s Line 2 Extension is on full-swing, and they’re building it starting from the Masinag area. The sky ...

Two Cities — 30 April, 2016

Alright, here I was on a Saturday, going out to different places once more. Cyberzone Cosplay Craze at Light Mall Mandaluyong Light Mall, accessible through the Boni MRT Station, is the next destination for the Cyberzone Cosplay Craze — previously, they were in Masinag. Here are some photos from the event. …someone took a 360-degree photo of all the cosplayers as well. I took some behind-the-scenes pictures as well, but while I was doing that, I’m told not to move as it might distort the output. I’m waiting for the output to come this week. I hope it’s not distorted. ...

I saw FLOW, and here’s what we’ve talked about

Hi, everyone. To be honest, I wasn’t able to pick a better title for this post, but let me tell you that yours truly were among the ones who are granted by Otakuzine Anime Magazine to do an interview with Japanese band FLOW during Ozine Fest 2016’s first day. Let’s get to the questions that the media have asked FLOW before they met their fans on this quick post. This is just a quick gist, so don’t expect much. ...

Ozine Fest 2016–16 April, 2016

I was thinking of a photo to highlight this post, and I picked this one. The runner-up was this: Negative comments aside, I was able to enjoy the first day of Ozine Fest 2016 yesterday. Why enjoy, when you have all of these terrible matters out of the blue? Simple: I went there to hang out with friends, and not to write a report about it. Well, I’m considering this as a report, but nah, I’m going to enjoy the day with my friends. ...

TAGCOM 2016–17 April 2016

This year marks the first decade of the TAGCOM toys & Hobbies Convention organized by Hobby at Worx (formerly Hobbiworx) at the Megatrade Hall 2 of SM Megamall today. Alongside this event is a bazaar and a shoe sale (which have been the big thing there), but nevertheless the place has been calm throughout the day. Second Gunpla I now have a new Gunpla too, and it’s an RX-78 with decals and stuff. It took me a while to do it as I need to make sire that I’m fitting the right pieces. In addition, I learned the use of their plastic cutter tool as well. ...

Cosplay Craze at Masinag, Antipolo — 10 April 2016

It’s been a long time since I attended a Cosplay.ph event, so it’s good to hear that they have one in Masinag. For the record, I was supposed to attend Cosplay Mania last year and watch Pile with the fans but due to the issue Deremoe (in which I am its Editor) had before, I was advised not to attend by friends. That same issue made Cosplay.ph’s head Pablo Bairan mention that we are blocked from acquiring media access for CosMania (in which I accept their decision wholeheartedly) as we always criticize their organization. ...

I’ve visited the Madrid Fusion Manila Expo at the SMX Manila, Pasay.

Just earlier, I’ve visited a big gastronomy event at the SMX, and it’s called Madrid Fusion Manila. Apparently, it’s the only Asian edition of the event. The 2016 Madrid Fusion Manila Expo at the SMX Convention Center — Manila in Pasay City showcases a lot of food products from the Philippines and Spain. This year’s theme, “The Manila Galleon: East Meets West,” features a galleon-designed “tunnel” showcasing various activities with the food aficionado in mind. ...

μ’s Final Love Live

It’s been three days since I’ve watched μ’s Final Love Live at SM Megamall with my bros, and what I did are the following: Sang along with the songs that I know, Cheered for μ’s as wild as I can with the lightstick (I’ll refer to it as a “light blade”) that is lent to me occasionally, Had my soul cry out as they cry as well (especially during the final moments of the double encore), and Set up an event page “Iyakan sa Megamall” prior to the event (either way, we all had manly tears) based on the popular NSFW event meme. It’s really a great feeling that I was able to witness the last moments of the group, which is said to have blurred the line between reality and fantasy (hence, 2.5D), and I am still at a loss of words on how to explain it. Also, Aya Uchida (as Kotori) sure did a great job making that 2.5D happen. ...

Three Cities — 19 March 2016

It’s been a busy Saturday once more as I went to three cities today.

So far, I’ve only done three out of five tasks over the span of 13 hours. ...

9th Philippine Cosplay Convention and MATCH Fest — 13 March 2016

It’s been a long time since my last visit to the Philippine Cosplay Convention, and now that I’ve went there, here are some photos. Actually, I don’t have a lot of great images from the PCC. The thing is, this is the first time they’ve moved from the Midtown Atrium to the Orosa Atrium, which means that they’ve expanded a year after Cosplay.ph has withdrawn their partnership with its organizer, Hobby at Worx (then called Hobbiworx). ...
