I feel it is in the best interests of the American Northwesters and Canadian Southwesters of this website to meet up at Sakura-Con in Seattle.
Yes. Let's do that.
This year's Sakura-Con features a multitude of guests. Voice actors range from domestic favourites like Todd Haberkorn (xxxHolic) and Wendy Powell (FMA) to overseas stars like Kappei Yamaguchi (Death Note) and the prolific Sasaki Nozomu (Akira, Monster). Musical guests include The Slants, SMiLE.dk, and Girugamesh. And of course, once again, the creators of Penny Arcade will also be there.
Though we won't have the usual massive lottery give-aways for free stuff like before, I can promise we'll have at least one or two ultra-embarrassing contests for those of you who missed out on that last ridiculous thing for one reason or another. Beyond that, it'll just be an excuse to hang out, have fun, and trash-talk all the people on the site you hate and think about how wonderful it is to be a part of such a large and amazing community of fans!
And of course, our good ol' podcaster Batou of Anime Pulse will be there. Not getting lost, even. Come meet him too!
So who's going? Be sure to check out our post over at the Conventionist World to say anything about the con', what you're looking forward to, and when it would be convenient to meet up!
And as always, check back at The Conventionist World for updates.
Hope to see a whole lot of you there!
