Hey everyone. Mew from GR here. I'm just wondering which kind of guest you want to see most at FanimeCon.
Please vote for one of the choices above. If what you want isn't listed, feel free to post a suggestion.
For industry reps and other, please specify exactly what kind of rep/guest (just one, please) you would like to see.

While we will try to keep the results in consideration, please understand that we can't guarantee who we will invite/bring.


PS "Music guests" are not included in the poll cuz that's MusicFest's area. ;)

What about getting G4tv to be there, they always seems to be at conventions and stuff, just an idea.

For what reason? I personally hate G4TV's coverage of things because they totally slanderize whatever they're doing. Be it from lack of knowledge or because they think it's fun... they usually trash whatever events they come to. To them it comes down to two things... losers being losers, and half naked cosplayers. That's all they focus on, and that's all they care about. Since Fanime isn't industry, they won't even be doing anything like "Premieres" or anything special like that, so they'll just say "LOLOLOL Look at these nerds" and "LOLOLOL LOOK AT THAT HOT CHICK".

I honestly have little interest in most English VAs. It's probably because I don't watch the dubs of things very often. Dubs have gotten much much better since I started watching anime, but I still prefer the subs. In that respect I'd prefer Japanese VAs over the American ones. I'd also be VERY interested in some manga artists!
From there, anyone who is hands-on with the creation of series or games.

Sailor Star Dust

I'd LOVE to one day see somebody like Anno at Fanime though Yamaga seems like a pretty cool dude. At the very least, I hope 2.0 will be shown whether officially or a fansub. >_>

Other than that, Japanese seiyuu or singers are always nice. Nothing wrong with English voice actors, though I'm just not as interested personally.

Composers who work on anime and video game titles...I'd love to see Shoji Meguro at this year's Fanime.

Within the realm of "Other" I'd like to see a few fans who have done something noteworthy (even if it is rather obscure) Like Team Four Star from the hilarious Dragon Ball Z: Abridged, or Ewen Cluny for helping get the game MAID printed in the US.

Just my thoughts....

Vic Mignogna (Edward Elric from Full Metal Alchemist). I talked to him and he really wanted to attend this years Fanime, but sadly he hasn't been invited yet. He is a very entertaining man and loves his fans and would a fantastic addition to the guests. Vic also said if you are a fan of his he would love your support in becoming a guest. So yeah I'm pushing for Vic Mignogna.

I agree, I'm actually kinda glad that Fanime hasn't invited guests who constantly go to so many anime conventions every year. So far atleast.

can we please avoid "over-conned" Voice Actors? (you know the ones i'm talking about) and bring in some VAs that don't go to a lot of cons (esp. those based on the East coast)
