Hayo Miyazaki!
>_< -sigh- That way I could ask him to marry meee...
Um... The guy who did the hypnosis show! D: I didn't get to goooo. -sigh-
Can we get some more voice actors? XDDD As much as I hate dubbing it's so cool to hear the voices right there (I got to hug the guy who did Tai's voice... I always had a crush on Tai... >.>). Um... Kira Vincent Davis would be cool.

Jamieson Price. He's such a great VA, and has run the gamut from Digimon to Cowboy Bebop, Big O to Bo^7, and is a joy to listen to. He's also a live-action actor and has done workshops in stage combat.

Maybe someone in the manga business (American or Japanese)?  Like a manga-ka or someone from Tokyopop or Dark Horse?

Voice actors or those indirectly involved in the industry. Having the director of the Inuyasha dub was a load of fun and interesting to hear him talk about the process and the experience. A mix of veteran or those new to it to get the full spectrum of experience.

Dark Horse is local so I bet they would make ideal partners in finding and bringing in guests.

That would be great. ^___________________________^

The reason being is that I would really really really (continue on for oh, 27 more times ^^) really would like to get any info I can on getting into the manga business.  I've got a lot of stories I would like to one day share.

She was at Fanime last year. She's a voice actress and idol, and VERY CUTE!
Title: 2006 Kumoricon guests
Post by: TomtheFanboy on October 24, 2005, 10:18:53 pm
I vote for Kara Dennison, because I always vote ofr Kara Dennison.
She's done bit of voice work and is a bit of an East Coast con personality. (which I know someobdoy on staff wants more of)

I don't know who, but I think that having some of Brad DeMoss' convention friends there would be cool. He's coming so having somebody he could sit on a panel with and go off on stories about each other.
Yeah, pretty vague but hey, I think it'd be good entertainment.


Man-Faye, but only so that we can sic him on Freon.
*has happy day dreams about Freon being a jerk and Man-Faye beating him up*
Hee hee hee. We can have hime wear a full length Yjimbo shirt until he needs to be called in. Take that disruptive attendees and Romanian drunk people!

I have yet to meet ManFaye in person.

I should dress up as Faye, but actually try to be more feminine and shave my legs and what not.

I say we have the Voice of Edward Vic Mignogna or the Voice of Roy which I think is William Travis, or Travis Williams. Or Something different, i dunno Juts the voice over for Roy.
Title: 2006 Kumoricon guests
Post by: Shadow on October 26, 2005, 07:09:34 pm
I really think that you should try to get the voice over for Vash. That would be so awesome, since Joshua Seth did the voice of Young Knives. I just don`t know Vash's voice over name...>_>;

Or, I think that Yuji Naka should be a guest. For those of you who don't know, Yuji Naka created Sonic the Hedgehog, Shadow, ect. And is one of the most popular video game icons. It would be an honor to see him at KumoriCon 2006. *_*

I think it'd be a great idea to have manga-ka.

I'd, personally, love to see either Fujisawa Tohru or Akamatsu Ken.

I know Fujisawa has been to an American con once before with Tokyopop's support.

I think having as much of a focus on Manga as Anime would be awesome.

Roy (in the US) is Travis Willingham.  

He agreed to come to Kcon 2005 but bailed on us and went to AnimeFest.... and didn't tell us... just let us find out on our own.

Not sure I would be in favor of trying to bring him.  

But... we might have some lines on others from FMA.  

Ugh... I'm out of my job description... back into Ops!

Just, like, follow him around everywhere like they tend to do to Keitaro. >__>;

Tiffany Grant >.>

Why? I'm an Asuka fanboy and need to tell her that she ruined my childhood.

I really hope Brad DeMoss comes back, he's a riot whenever I see him. Besides, I think I saw an older AMV he did so I want to ridicule him for doing it.

Outside of that I really don't care who comes, K-Con's been good to us when it comes to getting people.

I agree with bruce campbell he should become a voice actor for anime so we can get some good voices hehe
Title: 2006 Kumoricon guests
Post by: cstrife on November 10, 2005, 02:55:18 pm
Bruce Campbell would be great but, maybe not so much at an anime con. Although he would be fun just to have around :D

My teacher Ely Cannon.  He's a level artist for ArenaNet (they came out with Guild Wars) and wanted to come this year but had to go to a wedding instead.

I would also like to see Fred Gallagher, because he's cool and I still haven't met him yet.

And Johnny Yong Bosch, the voice actor for Vash.  He's awesome.  And he did the voice of Vash.

Mm...  Vash.

At this year's closing ceremonies, didn't they say that Scott McNeil said that he could make it if next year's Kumoricon was held on the same weekend next year as it was this year? If so, It'd be awesome to see him again. Meeting him is a religious experience. It'd also rock to see Vic Mignogna and Aaron Dismuke (Alphonse's voice actor) as guests. I really like the jobs they do as their characters.

Last year I was thinking there was a reason it might be hard to get certain VA and I just looked up that reason. AnimeFest (in Dallas near ADV and the voice actors that live in Dallas) goes on the same time Kumoricon. I'm pretty sure that's one Greg Ayres attends every year. *pouts*

DragonCon is also at the same time now (or at least it was last year), but it's much less anime-oriented.

There are so many excellent VAs out there that having any one of them at our con would be an honor.
Title: 2006 Kumoricon guests
Post by: Pie Row Maniac on November 18, 2005, 02:49:34 pm
I keep forgetting to bug Brad DeMoss about how much he looks like Bruce Campbell. ;)

Best time I ever saw him was at the AMV party at AWA, flat-out smashed and yelling a lot :lol:
Me being drunk also made the experience that much more hilarious

sigh...as much as I would love to meet my hero, Jhonen Vasquez, it's probebly not going to happen. Not at Kumoricon anyways.
So who else would I like to meet? More voice actors would be wonderfull! Like Melissa Fahn (if that's how you spell her name), Steven Blum, Kari Wahlgren, Mona Marshall. Just to name a few.
Also, manga-ka would be great. Japanese and/or American.

YU Watase!!!!! I LOVE HER!! SHE IS MY IDIOL!!! One of the best female manga artists in my opinion!!!! I know she was born in Osaka, then moved to Tokyo to make manga. Shes produced more then 50 compiled  volumes of short stories and continuing series. Shes the creator of Fushigi Yugi, Ayashi No Ceres, Imadoki, Alice 19th and more.

Naoko Takeuchi (Creator of Sailor Moon!) I love her as well. It would be awesome and my dream to meet her! Especially when Im cosplaying as one of her charaters for the con!!!!! I look up to her and love her as well.

And the voice actors who do InuYasha, Kagome, and Spike from Cowboy Bebop!!!

I'd be happy to see Scott McNeil, Mark Hildreth(c'mon,, Duo & Heero!!)

Ayumi Hamasaki, or Aikawa Nanase.

Brad Demoss, because he's jsut too awesome!

Jodi Benson!! (she played Millenia in Grandia2, as well as MANY other rolls in VA)
Cam Clark, so I can promptly tell him I'm in love with him and run away to marry him. XD lol not really, but I think he's an awesome VA too.

HMMMM..I'unno. those are some of my ideas.
I'd kinda like to see anyone other than the Zoku, not because I dislike them, but because they've been the guests for like..every year. Can't they just once attend Kumoricon as NORMAL con goers?

Lol as if any of us are truly 100% normal. XDD j/k
Title: 2006 Kumoricon guests
Post by: yukimizu on December 30, 2005, 01:37:30 am
I had another idea for a guest, after finding out that She's in america..
What about... Mika Todd? Y'know Morning Musume/Mini Moni?

I guess she's somewhere in California(according to sources online), I think it'd be pretty cool to get someone who was/is in music y'know?

Post by: Kassy on August 23, 2006, 01:53:13 pm
Hello, I registered in here just so I cculd ask about Kirk Thornton. The Kumuricon schedual is so messed up in my opinion that all it says in the way of guests are Piano Squall and Tiffany Grant. So when is Kirk going to be there? Does anyone know? Can anyone help me?

Thanks, I look forward to a reply. This will be my first time going to Kamura Con. I normally have gone to Sakura Con for the last 4 yrs. It would have been 5 this year, but I couldn't make it. I hope I didn't miss anything TOO fun!!

Sincerely,
Kassy (aka Kat)
