Cheers to 2026! Letโ€™s embrace this year like we embrace a new cosplay, with more amazing events, awesome photoshoots and a complete lack of regret!

Let's get this straight. Cosplay.ph events have already sold out from entrance to VIP, and even the shoppers' pass. From Cosplay Carnival, Fanfes, ACX, Cosplay Mania, and Cosplay Matsuri have already been sold out for years.
On the other hand, ToyCon didn't sell out their ticket because of the capacity versus demand. Toycon happens in large venues that can accommodate many people, reducing the pressure for a quick sell-out compared to smaller concert venues.
Ticket strategy because organizers offer affordable and accessible daily tickets sold at the venue, encouraging people to just show up, not necessarily pre-booking out all slots.
Multiple Ticket Types: VIP passes are limited and sold online, while general admission is widely available, so the overall event isn't designed to sell out all tickets instantly.
In short, it's often a mix of venue size, pricing strategies, and accessibility goals rather than a lack of popularity. ToyCon Philippines remains a significant event.

๐Ÿšซ OFFICIAL ADVISORY: TICKET POLICY๐Ÿšซ
"Attention all adventurers heading to Vista Mall, Bataan on January 3-4, 2026: We will strictly bar anyone attempting to use a paid entrance ticket. We aren't interested in those Manila-style 'participation trophies' where you pay just to stand in the heat while guards ignore your existence; BACon is, and always will be, a free event."

"However, if you want that elite 'Main Character' status, grab our Supporters Pack. Our Bacon Backers are the only true VIPs hereโ€”merch, quest cards, and zero trauma included! "

TLDR: Got Ticket? No Entry (We do not have tickets to begin with ๐Ÿคฃ)

Not only were Portal Pass and Regular Tickets sold out during all 3 days, but the Shopperโ€™s Pass was also sold out for the first time during Day 1, and had record numbers of sales on the other days as well.

It was indeed a monumental acheivement, but one that we couldnโ€™t have accomplished without our special guest Kiyo ํ‚ค์–ด, , the jaw-dropping All-Stars, VTubers and performers who truly made the event special.

The event wouldnโ€™t have been possible though without the amazing support of Brother Philippines, Maggi, Neutral Grounds Philippines, Minute Burger, and many other incredible sponsors and exhibitors who brought joy and wonderment to all the con-goers.

Weโ€™d also like to thank the management and staff of the SMX Convention Center Manila who worked with us to resolve issues promptly, and who were open to feedback and improvements we proposed throughout the year.

Shoutouts to Synergy as well for providing marshals who were firm yet friendly to the con-goers while working with incredible efficiency. Together with our staff, we managed to clear the lines quickly without inconveniencing anyone, and helped to make the con-goers feel safe and secure.

The convenience and speed of entry wouldnโ€™t have been possible without the streamlined services of our official ticketing partner TicketMAX. Since our partnership with them, weโ€™ve managed to minimize wait times and other issues typically associated with other popular events.

To our incredible staff, who faced many challenges this year, weโ€™re truly grateful for all your efforts. Youโ€™ve persevered through it all and put up performances that you can be proud of. Letโ€™s work together to make 2026 even better by learning from our experiences and improving ourselves and events together in the future!

Of course, all this wouldnโ€™t be possible without all the unbelievable cosplayers and con-goers who celebrated the event with us. We were particularly impressed by all the jaw-dropping cosplays your brought to the event! It was truly a wonder to behold, and weโ€™re eager to see what youโ€™re cooking up for the next year.

Movie News: The official website of Tatsuki Fujimoto's "Chainsaw Man" announced that "Chainsaw Man the Movie: Reze Arc" has reached US$63 million since the anime film was released in September 2025.

According to a report from Animate Times, the anime film was released in September 2025, where the film has sold US$63.94 million and 6.55 million tickets. It'll be the 4th Japanese film to reach a milestone since Gosho Aoyama's "Detective Conan the Movie: One-Eyed Flashback" released in April 2025, Lee Sang Il and Shuichi Yoshida's "Kokuho" released in June 2025, and Koyoharu Gotouge's "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba the Movie: Infinity Castle - Part 1" released in July 2025.

To commemorate the milestone, manga author Fujimoto is drawing an illustration and a message for the moviegoers. Fujimoto wanted to thank the moviegoers for watching so many times, and he still can't get over it.

The anime film centers on Reze, a mysterious girl who becomes a love interest for Denji, making him feel special. But things take a dark turn when Reze is not a normal girl; she is the Bomb Devil Hybrid, an assassin sent by the Soviet Union to capture Denji and the Chainsaw Devil.

The original story follows Denji, a poor teenager burdened with his late fatherโ€™s debt to the yakuza. His only companion is Pochita, a small chainsaw-shaped devil. To pay off his debt, Denji works as a devil hunter for the yakuza, killing devils in exchange for scraps of money.

Sony Pictures Entertainment acquired the worldwide theatrical rights in 80 countries, including the Philippines, which was released in September 2025, and in the United States in October 2025, where the anime film has grossed US$174.7 million worldwide, making it one of the highest-grossing Japanese films of all time, and received positive reviews from critics.

Manga News: Kodansha is listing that the 15th volume of Akira Tosaka, Sei Kamo, and Ryuta Fuse's "Dungeon Sherpa: The Labyrinth Guide" will end the series to be released on Thursday, January 8th, 2026.

Based on the web novel and light novel of the same name. The story centers on Rou, a young and exceptionally skilled Dungeon Sherpa in the Tyros Labyrinth. He is highly adept at traversing the dungeon's treacherous depths and provides crucial guidance to adventurer parties.

He meets Yuika, a powerful hero and the leader of the adventurer party Twilight's Sword. Her party hires Rou to guide them to the bottom of the labyrinth, hoping his expertise will enable them to succeed where they previously failed.

This party has a strong reputation in the royal capital but has previously struggled to make significant progress in the dungeon. Rou's unique insights and unparalleled skill at navigating the labyrinth combine with their strength to allow them to venture into uncharted territory where no one has set foot before.

The manga series was published in Kodansha's Shonen Sirius magazine in February 2020, and moved to Wednesday Sirius or Suiyobi no Sirius magazine in October 2022, where Tosaka is writing, and Kamo and Fuse are supervising, released in 14 book volumes.

The web novel was published in July 2014, and Kodansha published the light novel where Kamo is writing, and Fuse is illustrating, in October 2018, and released in 3 book volumes.

Gentler days are ahead. Recognize your growth, perseverance, and humanity. Even if the year felt heavy or imperfect, your efforts mattered.

Before December ends, take a moment to appreciate yourself for the silent battles you faced, the small wins you earned, and the effort you gave even when it was hard.
