Simply called Al, Alandia Enomoto is one of the best and cutest Cebuana cosplayer. Alandia is best known for her lolita cuteness, kid-like-kawaii face cosplay photoshoots and a model for the best photographers in town. She is very much known online for her cute and random asian poses in the cosplay community from Cebu and also from different regions in the country, mostly from Cebu and Manila. Alandia is a cosplayer, model, writer and a blogger. She is also best for her cosplays and costrips for Anime/Cosplay conventions in the region.
Alandia gets invited by photographers and do cosplay photoshoots with them or just simply anything that is Japanese inspired. Her collaboration with fellow cosplayer, Miles Semblante, became one of their best team up and offer great friendship between the two. Alandia not only gets invitation alone but she works and executes cute poses with Miles which makes it a very interesting to see and a great output for themselves and also for the viewers.

AND LAST BUT NOT THE LEAST, THE ASKAL DOG
You might notice a random askal dog was passing by at the end of the video, it pretty much add a drama to the video. The dog was said to be just wandering around until the dog passed by thier path and it's not really part of the ad, but it did gave a positive feel for the video!
This is where the sponsors are been promoted and where our four cosplayers, Edd, Alandia, Charles and Arvee, walked in together as ONE. HOBCON 2010: IMPERIA is about a gathering of kindred spirits. It's about being different and being the same. It's about dreams, made into reality. It's about yourself, being yourself.
