July will be the celebration of the Philippines-Japan Friendship Month. Let us unite together with the showcase of best Japanese cinema, colorful anime/manga characters and original Japanese music that will be held all over the Philippines - Manila, Cebu and Davao. This is a project of Japan Foundation, Manila (JFM) and the Embassy of Japan for the entire month of July.
