Schedule of Events

We didn't went on the Day 1, but by looking at the pics of the Cosplayers, Photographers and Con-goers who went on that day seems that every corner of the convention center was filled with so many people. 

The International Guests Cosplayers are Reika, Kaname☆ and Jesuke. Reika and Kaname☆ are both from Japan while Jesuke was from Singapore. Too bad, Jesuke didn't have his own meet and greet session but he has some signed pictures that he will give to those lucky people.

On Day 1, it was Reika's meet and greet session (started at 10am up to 12nn) and was also Kaname☆'s stage performance (around 2pm, I guess). He did a skit from the anime Black Rock Shooter. While on Day 2 obviously, it was Kaname☆'s meet and greet while Reika has a stage performance on that day. She sang Orion wo Nazoru (Tiger and Bunny OP1)

Kaname☆ did promise that he would come back here again in the Philippines (maybe next year? xD). Reika did really enjoyed and have fun staying here while Jesuke was hoping that he would be back again in the next year's Cosmania =D
