You went to all the Guest Panels. You won an autograph ticket and got your favorite Guest to autograph your anime stuff. You knew everything you needed to know about all the cool Guests and then some. And if you cosplayed, you may have even gotten your picture taken by a Guest! But did you get a chance to sit down and chat with them? Then the Guest Reception was definitely the place to be!  For abridged bios on all the Guests, please see our Guest Gallery!
