This Saturday is 2017 edition of Cosplay Mania held at SMX Convention Center in SM Mall of Asia, Pasay City. Got the chance to see the event due to 4 day vacation from work. Went to the Convention Center past 12pm. The lines are hefty from ticket line up to the entrance door. The price of the ticket varies from 399.00Php for Silver ticket, 799.00 for Gold, and 1,999.00Php for VIP guest.

As I entered the event, I went straight to the Quantum's area to see the latest BEMANI additions, the DanceDanceRevolution A and GITADORA Matixx (DrumMania). Present in the event is the cabinet of beatmaniaIIDX24 SINOBUZ, jubeat clan, and Sound Voltex IV Heavenly Haven. The event also held a tournament for Sound Voltex, which is the grand prize is an artist signed Sound Voltex IV poster and a special edition e-amusement card signed by an artist.

Got the chance to play DDR A, but the player can only play once. After that, you can sign up again to play. Although its FREE PLAY! Wasn't able to play GITADORA, the good thing is there is one here in the Philippines.
While waiting for my turn to play, I had the chance to look around. There are a few anime merchandise exhibitors.
Because of this latest additions, the BEMANI community is in rage to play BEMANI games, old and new. In my opinion, with the presence of Sound Voltex for over a year, it garnered a lot of new players and attracting more players to try other BEMANI games. I think Quantum really did a good job in participating the event and it adds exposure to the games they have. I hope more BEMANI games will add here in the Philippines.
To the organizers, to prevent long queues, add more booth to accommodate guest because the lines are hefty and chaotic. People have to wait for over an hour just to get inside the event.
Also, a K O N A M I are displayed in front of the Quantum area.
