Mindanao Cosplay Summit at SM 2010

Im a big fan of anime, but mainly anime such as Naruto, Bleach and Eyeshield. So when my wife told me there was a cosplay contest to be held at SM Davao, I told her that we should watch it. I admire those kids who joined cosplay, it showcase their creative talent in designing and more. The Mindanao Cosplay Summit started with a song from a band(sorry gals I forgot their band name). After the song the cosplay contest begins, it was divided into 3 categories, the first was the individual category, then the doubles and group. We only watched the singles event, since we have to be back early since our baby girl is waiting already for us. Here are some photos of the event.

I still cant remember the name of the band hahahaha

The host for the event, forgot their names to, but their cute and petite. My wife really likes the voice of the female host.

Some of the singles contestants

More cosplay contestants waiting for their turn.

The judges......

The place was filled with people.

Though we didn't finish the event, we manage to take some photos of cosplayer's outside,some just taking a break and waiting for their turn.

Congrats to all Mindanao Cosplayers who joined the event, hats off to you guys and gals. Hope there will be more events like this in years to come.

Cosplay At Gaisano Mall Davao

The last day of the 1st Mindanao Toys, Hobbies, and Collectibles Convention was highlighted by the Cosplay contest although there where plenty of people who roam the mall with their costumes, but not of them joined the contest. I really admire people who do Cosplay, especially those good ones, they are really creative an to top it all brave to face all those people wearing those costumes that they have made. The contest started almost 3pm, but to my dismay much of the contestant who joined only buy or borrowed those costumes. Only a handful had really made their costumes. So here are some of the contestant who joined the event.

The cutest of all contestant he's only 7 years of age, BANKAI hahaha
