Wazzup Pilipinas!

Get ready for another semester filled with studying, intense training, and new ways to kill the teacher in the latest season of the highly popular anime series Assassination Classroom, which premieres on 10 July every Monday and Tuesday at 8pm on Animax.

The second semester is about to begin at the Kunugigaoka Junior High School. While some things have changed, the assignment of Class 3-E remains the same: to kill Koro-sensei, their tentacled, smiley-faced teacher, before the school year is over.

Nagisa Shiota and his classmates take another chance at redemption as they devise more ingenious plans in killing their alien teacher.

But Koro-sensei has become the class’ favorite teacher as more and more lessons are learned, and the skills and confidence of the students are developed.

In the end, their loyalty will be put to the test as they are faced with a dilemma more challenging than any final exam they have ever encountered: Will they choose to save the world? Or will they choose to save the world’s greatest teacher?

Assassination Classroom (Season 2) premieres on 10 July, every Monday & Tuesday at 8pm, with 2 episodes back-to-back, first & exclusively on Animax.

Animax is available on SKYCable Channel 46, Cignal Channel 73, Dream Satellite TV Channel 07, Destiny Digital Channel 46 and G Sat Channel 24.

REP is giving everyone another chance to catch their magical musical masterpiece as The Glitter Trap holds a weekend run on August 20 at Circuit Makati.  

Starring a young and talented cast, all aged 11 to 17, Repertory Philippines’ The Glitter Trap is based on Barbara Brauner and James Iver Mattson’s young adult novel of the same title.

As the new fairy godmother of the most popular girl in school, Lacey learns that things aren’t always what they seem from the outside, and gains a better appreciation for what she has.

22 performers, including Rayne Cortez as Lacey, Michelle Cornejo as popular girl Paige, Chez Cuenca as fairy godmother Katarina, and Stacy Tsai as Lacey's best friend Sunny, will be bringing their talents to the stage.

Playful, poignant and entertaining, the show is directed by Joel Trinidad and Nicky Triviño, with book and lyrics by Joel Trinidad, music by Jon Meer Vera-Perez, musical direction from Adonis Tabanda, and choreography from Deana Aquino.
