5 comments
The Super Manila Comic Convention 2025 was held on Sept 6 and 7 at One Ayala.
This is the convention kit, with a knapsack with the convention logo and Dan Da Dan printed on each side.
The convention fee per day is a bit exorbitant, but what the heck, my sister treated me to the ticket.
As is usual, wristbands is a quick indication that you have a convention pass.
Below are the kit's contents:
The playbill with a map,
some coupons,
a snack which I am eating as I am writing this post,
and, surprise surprise! DEODORANTS! Many nerds, dorks, and geeks are known for their bad hygiene and terrible smell, so we are all grateful that the kit has some solutions haha!!! These are from my and my sister's kits.
This is a free area where sponsors have set up their booths. It is on the second floor, a bit far from the top floor convention venue.
The upcoming Tron movie being promoted.
Some gundam robots near the venue's entrance.
A cosplayer.
Warhammer 40,000.
Some legos.

Come back here, Lord Vader, please take a picture with me.

Dunno what shows these belong to, but I'm sure anime lovers can quickly name them.
