Kawaii in Manila 2: The First Ever Convention for Kawaii Japanese Lovers!

Events & Nightlife September 20, 2014

 

 

Inside the main venue, there was eye candy everywhere! Each booth was set with sale items especially for this event! Everyone had a great time browsing, picking and purchasing the cutest items out there! From trinkets to costumes to outfit fittings to beauty samples to yummy food stalls, we never ran out of stuff to try! An art exhibit was also up for viewing made by the creative Kawaii artists. Near the stage, workshops on Polymer Clay and Lettering were also held for those who wanted to learn the basics.

Amazing performances kept the audience alive and dancing! My childhood memories started swimming back in my head as I reminisced while the cover groups performed onstage with the familiar soundtracks of my favorite anime and J-pop idols in the background. #feels
