Title: Are There Going to Be Any Voice Actors at Fanime?
Post by: naruto_ramen_1 on April 02, 2008, 10:21:17 AM
Hi there.

I have a question....

I was looking through the forums here and came across the tentative schedule for the convention. One thing I didn't not see is a panel featuring any voice actors or japanese guests.  Do you invite these types of guests to Fanime? This will be my first time going :) 

I know I saw a guests thread somewhere on here, but I haven't seen any confirmation in terms of guests.  Any one know any information on this?

Thanks :)

As of right now, we do have several voice actors invited as our Guests of Honor. You can check them out here on the Fanime website (http://www.fanime.com/guests/).

As I am not in charge of Panels, I don't have any information to offer you about panels with our Guests of Honors. Feel free to send an inquiry to [email protected] if you do have any questions and I am sure our awesome Panels head would get back to you.

I would also suggest keeping an eye out on the Fanime website since we tend to announce our latest news there first before announcing them on the forums.

I think Kiuchi Hidenobu was the first or second guest announced, and he's a Japanese voice actor.  (Prince of Tennis)  http://www.fanime.com/events/panels lists him as giving two panels.

Thanks for the link :)

I was curious though....will Fanime be getting any more guests? 

I was kinda hoping to see some voice actors from Naruto or Death Note :)

I don't know, but Fanime seems to often have Japanese guests just appear without much of an announcement or anything.  I get the impression that the surprise guests were associated with Yamaga-san in some way, though, and I don't see Yamaga-san on the guest list, so I don't know if that'll happen this year.
