Silventure: Cosplayed at BoA 2019

There are a number of conventions that are held every year at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay.
Best of Anime or BOA is one of there. I got to attend this year with friends in cosplay!

Does our costume bring nostalgia? We dressed up as characters from Yu Yu Hakusho or better known in the Philippines as Ghost Fighter. There were 8 of us and two supportive friends that went as monsters!

I was Susie/Shizuru, Alfred/Kuwabara's sister and I was able to force Sherome to be my Mr. Valdez/Sakyo. We had a family cosplaying as Jericho in the chibi form with his dad and Charlene.
It was so cute!

It was fun to hear people chanting "Tapusin" every time they see our group. I love my group and I would not go if it was not for them. I can wait for the official photoshoot! Check out the other photos below. I don't have the group photo but there is one in Skittles (POS Cosplay Group).

If you do have photos of our group please share them with me! :)

Marshal Duties: Cosplay Carnival 2018

Credits: Cosplay Carnival

Cosplay Carnival is the first event in the line up of  Cosplay.ph's series of conventions. Held last February 24-25 at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay. It was two days of fun and costumes!

I was on marshal duties, hence I was able to take photos during short breaks only. This was my first time at Cosplay Carnival. It was surprising to see that they build a gazebo at the center of the function room.

On stage, they did the Yoshinoya eating contest, cosplay competitions, and item auctions. There was never a dull on the stage area. They even have a game that was similar to Family Feud.

Just like in a carnival, they have games for you to enjoy! Known online shops and artists have also joined for a complete carnival experience.

Cosmania 2017 Highlights

You don’t need to leave the country to experience a grand anime and cosplay event. Cosplay Mania has it all for you. Held last September 30 to October 1 at Function rooms 1-5, SMX Convention Center. This is the biggest Cosmania ever since it started in 2008.

The event officially opened before noon. There were a lot of anime and cosplay enthusiast present. All of them excited to enjoy the event, meet their idols and win prizes!

If you were one of the first 500 people, you were entitled to play Cosplay Con-Quest. It is indeed a great way to explore the event. If you finish the game early, your prize awaits you at the Prize Redemption Booth located at the Show Management Office.

Toys, cute items, and fan art on sale—you'll get to see all of those. Did we already mention that Cosmania is also a great time to meet up with online sellers that are also exhibitors for 2 days? There are discounts and freebies from on-site shops that you can avail as well!

For two days, people got to see some of their favorite characters come to life. From anime, western comics, computer games, and movies—it is fun to see people with the same cosplay face each other!

This year’s Jam concert featured Anisong artists, Konomi Suzuki, kradness, ELISA, Shiena Nishizawa. Attendees were able to jam with these amazing artists for two days! You can tell that the people enjoyed the concert. The floor was shaking from the attendees that were jumping during the concert.

There were a few setbacks, but all in all, it was an enjoyable event! Looking forward to a better Cosmania 2018! Time to go back to our usual favorites!
