Kawaii Finds, Arts and Films

In celebration of the Filipino-Japanese Friendship month, Shangri-La Plaza came up with All Things Kawaii, a Japanese-themed event that satisfied not only kawaii penchants but also people who are drawn into and interested to know the Japanese arts, culture and roots.

The back-to-back art activity propped the highlight of the festivity: the Eiga Sai Japanese Film Festival 2015, which had its gala night last July 10 and will run until July 19.

It had been a fun-filled kawaii weekend and definitely one can say subete wa kawaīdesu (everything is cute)!
