Guests I want for FanimeCon 2008!!!

[Altomare]

I would simply die if there was any possible way for CLAMP to come to Fanime. I mean really. I'd crawl to their feet holdind a silver platter with my heart on it for them [ okay so that's and exaggeration ] but I would be VERY happy if they could possibly come.

For Seiyuu's, I'd want:

Asano, Mayumi - Hisoka [ Yami no Matsuei ], Blue [ Wolfs Rain ], Haku [ Naruto], and a few more.
Miki, Shinichiro - Tsuzuki [ Yami no Matsuei ], Shinichirou [ Sukisyo! ], Kyuzo [ Samurai Seven ], and many more.
Namikawa, Daisuke - Fai D. Flourite [ Tsubasa Chronicle ], Yukio [ Beck - Mongolian Chop Squad ], and many others.

For English VA's I'd like:

Yuri Lowenthal - Yuuri [ Kyou Kara Maou! ], Sasuke [ Naruto ], and many more.
Chris Patton - Ichiro [ Nerima Daikon Brothers ], Greed [ Fullmetal Alchemist ], Haruka [ Tactics ], and many more.
Mona Marshall - Wolfram [ Kyou Kara Maou! ], Toboe [ Wolfs Rain ], Nataku [ X ], and many more.

So yeah, there's my two cents.

[alkaline]

Polysics! Polysicspolysicspolysics @_@

yeah right....

In all honesty, they wouldn't be impossible. They tend to come out here quite a bit.

I made the above post a few months ago, so I think its time for an update.

I still don't think they're out of reach for Fanime, but as some of you may already know they've signed onto MySpace Records. This presents good and bad stipulations. On one hand, they're infinitely easier to get in touch with. On the other, they're probably a bit more tied up than before.

They just played a show here in SF this past week and of course, it was amazing. They're coming back in early November as an opening act on the MySpace tour, so its clear that they still love playing Western shows. As an added bonus, they love the Bay Area, or more specifically, San Francisco.

Just something to think about ;)

Time for an update from my end, I think we all can figure out where this is headed even without clicking the link. ;P

She has recently signed onto SMA-Players, meaning that it would probably be easier to contact her, but it might be more difficult to work through sony instead of directly through Otoklura Records as you would have had to do when she was still indies. I still do not think she is very out of reach, though, and would be the perfect addition to the con. Great music for Musicfest, and an extremly nice and intresting person. She is a bit of a geek herself and loves videogames, movies, and collecting toys and figurines, and going to various conventions (not sure if she enjoys anime conventions, though). I still say she is perfect for Fanime, and if she is not at least seriously looked into as a potential guest, I think Fanime is loosing one of the best Musicfest guests they can possibly have.

Bring on Johnny Yong Bosch. C'mon, he was Vash, he's Ichigo, he was Renton, he was the black power ranger. I second the Chris Patton. Brad Swailes, maybe, since he's playing Light Yagami in Death Note, and since DN just premired...


Dir en grey is probably a "not a chance" thing, but if they came, I would seriously die. The music fest should have more rock, less pop.

[Paladin Cecil]

This is a really good topic idea. Is this the first time that a guest suggestion topic has been posted at this board?

Aaron Dismuke
Travis Willingham (all three voices of FMA characters)
Matt Hill
Venus Terzo (both of Gundam Seed fame)
Shiloh Strong (voice of Zelos from Tales of Symphonia)

Kirby Morrow (voice of Trowa from GW)

[zoupzuop2]

Names I'd like to see:

Venus Terzo (both of Gundam Seed fame)

Don't forget that she was involved with Ranma ½. Which is ALL the more reason to bring her on-board.
Then again... that would sort of make the chance of bringing Richard Ian Cox to Fanime about nil & nigh... sort'a awkward if you know what I mean.

[Ska_Kitti]

I'd like to see Greg Ayers come to Fanime. The only problem with his invite is that he prefers to come with other VA's. Chris Patton is a good one to bring.

[Mew]

Now that it's been announced that Kiuchi Hidenobu is coming to Fanime, how about someone to compliment him? Like... Suwabe Junichi??? X.DDD More wishful thinking on my part, but yeah, they'd make an awesome combination of guests!

So excited to meet Kiuchi! I hope Fanime gets more guests like this for 2008 and in the future!

[DemonLordZabuza]

ZZ
Goofy Style :D

[Cowpunk]

Of course Yamaga-san.

I'd add:

Monkey Punch, his idea of fun is to hang out and talk to attendies.

Megimi Hayashibara

Fred Schodt - he has a new book out on Tezuka (The Astro Boy Essays)

Fanime needs to get Waccha and Tatsu and make them sing for us!!

[Akira Miyamoto]

Aya Hirano would make an awesome musical guest.

Also, it would be cool if either Tim Buckley or Fred Gallagher made an appearance.

Takkun~~~ X.DDD
Haha, that would be awesome if they sang the Saint Beast ED. Oh how I love that song! So catchy. .^^ But yes, it would be amewsing to see them all in the gaming room. But if they were coming to game, we'd have to add Ichiki Mitsuhiro into the mix. He recently dug out his old SNES to play King of Fighters, LoL. And he plays KOF at the ge-sen too. (I'm highly amewsed that Ichiki is a Gackt fanboy, haha.) Man I love'd to see them have one of their Monster Hunter gatherings, LoL.
