industry sessions, and Guest Q&As to attend to throughout the weekend.
Whether you were into voice acting or just wanted to chit chat with your
favorite fan artists, the panels and discussions were a great way to
educate yourself and see all the work that happens in the anime fan and

Voice Acting: Seasoned
voice actors Takahiro Mizushima (Stellvia, Scrapped Princess) and Jonathan
Osbourne (Bastard, Fist of the North Star) talked about many of their
roles in voicing anime, from simple "walla" crowd sessions to
the more dedicated character roles requiring lots of studio time. If
you've ever wanted to become a voice actor yourself and learn more from
the VAs themselves, then this is where it's at! |
USA Musume:
They sing, they dance, and they make their own
costumes! This traveling troupe put on a few shows for the weekend
but also found time to present a Q&A panel for the fans and
newcomers. USA Musume is based off of the insanely popular Morning
Musume J-pop group in Japan, which does an incredible amount of various
stage shows and music videos tuned towards the female audiences. |
