I appreciate your enthusiasm of asking guests to attend, but if you don't mind, please leave it to Shuto Con staff to contact them, otherwise guests might get confused if they're being asked officially or not. |

Okay, since you insist Xd Here's my impossible guest requests for the next year~ Mangaka- Anzai Nobuyuki, or Watase Yuu <3 Music- B'z, Kalafina, FictionJunction, UVERWorld, Psychic Lover ....man, this could go on endlessly Seiyuu- Hayashibara Megumi, Takayama Minami, Saiga Mitsuki, Fukuyama Jun, Souichiro Houshi, Hikaru Moridikawa, etc etc (this one is even worse) (if you got any of these guests, I'd be totally happy to work as a translator at the con, haha, I'm pretty much fluent) ...buuut...these are totally impossible, so I'm cool with that XD I go to like three cons a year that get big-name Japanese guests like this <3 so I can abuse those for the guests, haha |

LOL you are right, Japanese guests at this point in Shuto Con would be impossible especially considering a flight to/from Japan starts out at around $1800... However, if our fans keep staying as awesome as they have been, we might be able to bring in a Japanese guest quicker than planned! My dream Japanese guest would be Yoshitaka Amano. |

I love all the guests suggested so far! But my pick for 2013 would be Kate Higgins who I know hasn't been to a convention since 2009 which is a shame. And agreed on loving to see Todd Haberkorn or Michelle Ruff again! =) |

I would definitely agree with Crispin Freeman. My boyfriend and I would also like to see some Funimation actors, namely Christopher Sabat and Justin Cook (Let's just say any of the major cast of Yu Yu Hakusho *lol*). I personally would like to see some Avatar: TLA and/or Korra voice actors (i.e.: Dante Basco and Grey DeLisle), as well as any Lunar: Silver Star Story or Eternal Blue voice actors. |

How about two oldies--these are two of my old favorites, among the first published American manga artists, both of which I became HUGE fans of back when anime/manga was hard to find  (descriptions stolen from Wikipedia) Studio Tavicat - (Unfortunately there isn't a Wiki page for Tavicat, or Tavisha, but here's Rikki's) Rosearik Rikki Allen Simons (born September 8, 1970) is an American voice actor, writer, graphic novelist, and artist, best known as the voice of GIR in the Nickelodeon animated series, Invader Zim. Simons also co-created and wrote the Robotech: Clone comic series. In addition to his graphic novel and novel work, Simons also paints backgrounds for animation, including Invader Zim and Jackie Chan Adventures. He painted both issues of Jhonen Vasquez's comic I Feel Sick. Simons works with his wife, illustrator Tavisha Wolfgarth. The two currently produce a biweekly webcomic "@Tavicat".[1] In 2007, he was a frequent guest panelist on the video game and geek culture podcast The Weekly Geek. Adam Warren - Wiki: Adam Warren (born 1967) is an American comic book writer and artist who is most famous for his adaptation of the characters known as Dirty Pair into an American comic book, and for being one of the first American commercial illustrators to be influenced by the general manga style. He has also contributed to several Gen¹³ comics, worked as writer and character designer for the Marvel Comics series Livewires, and done numerous freelance works. His two latest projects are Iron Man: Hypervelocity and Empowered. |

I know you guys have said that Vig Mignogna is such a common guest and he is at like every convention, and you guys want to be original, but I have always wanted to meet him, and it would bring in a lot of con goers if you were able to get him as a guest, garrunteed. Atleast take it into consideration, because I suggested him last year, and you guys said you didn't want to have him as a guest because you wanted to be original. |

Mary Elizabeth McGlynn. I believe she went last year, but I didn't see that she was confirmed this year. She's the voice of Motoko from Ghost in the Shell and a ton of others. Then there's Paul St. Peter, or Xemnas in Kingdom Hearts, Entei in the Mastermind of Mirage Pokemon, and King Daku in Shinzo, as well as about a jillion others. Oh, and if we're suggesting names like Dante Basco, I'll throw Tara Strong out there, too... Edit- And now that I think about it, Grey Delisle is on Tumblr all the time, so she probably has some free time. She does the voice of Azula in Avatar, Mandy in the Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, Yumi in Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi, and a ton others. Edited by Orphansforsale, Nov 4 2012, 09:20 PM.

I watch most my anime subbed, so I don't really know a lot of voice actors. But I have a few that I would love to see. First is Crispin Freeman. He just seems like an awesome guy, and the only con I've been to that he was at was Otakon, which unfortunately has so many people getting autographs can be very tricky Lisa Ortiz is another. I met her at Otakon once, and she was just an all around awesome guest. Sadly I got my collection of Slayers after that, so it's really begging to be autographed. And, being a huge gamer, I will definitely mirror the Steve Blum request. I could probably reach over from my computer right now and just grab a game at random and he's voiced someone in it. But Dragon Age is one of my favorites, and he's a major character in that! Edited by DarkHayama, Apr 8 2013, 05:01 PM.
