Right after our get together with my relatives, Ilya and I attended the Cosplay Mania ’14 Evolution (Day 2) 10-05-2014 with my commitment to meet Ara Montano (who asked me if I will attend). It was already 4:30 PM and we just reached the Dau Bus Terminal. With a little wait in terminal, we reached the SMX Convention by 7:00 PM. There was a heavy traffic only at Espana, probably because of the Mass.
We decided not to buy a ticket since it was already late which is why we were #teamlabas. Our goal is to meet Ara for the commitment to attend the event. We searched a little at the first floor and saw a few cosplayers. As we checked on the 2nd floor, the area was still crowded with cosplayers. We took photos of them as we passed by. Finally, along the hallway, we found Ara.
After a little hello and introduction, we proceeded to take photos:

I told her that she looked shy or depressed on the photo. And she answered that she was portraying the character. As I recall her post on Facebook, the character looked depressed — My mistake. Afterwards, I requested for a smile and some cuteness.
As we roamed around to take photos, I met some cosplayers who I know / who knows us:
- Deanne Alcaire (From Toycon 2014, Downtown Cosplay Showdown, Cosplay Invasion, Cosplay Mania Clark Clash)
- Towbii Menor (From Cosplay Fest 2014, Cosplay Invasion)
Apparently, I was not able to take a photo of Deanne (again). I was taking a photo of a cosplayer when she approached me. Right after, I tried to look for her and she was gone. Hopefully, we can catch up on the next event 🙂
I am just done uploading 1 photo of each cosplayer:







I only uploaded here photos of cosplayers who we were able to ask for their name and facebook account. Other photos are and will be uploaded on our Facebook page.
