One last minute addition to that list which unfortunately missed our press release is Greg Ayres, who we're proud to officially announce will be our third Special Guest, joining Crispin Freeman and Colleen Clinkenbeard in the first year of this new program!

Greg Ayres is best known for his work with ADV and has roots in Anime ever since his days as a "fanboy". Now turned pro, he has voiced popular roles such as Son Goku in Saiyuki, Chrono in Chrono Crusade, Kaworu Nagisa in the Director's Cut of Neon Genesis Evangelion, and Tsuyoshi in Kodocha.

My apologies to Greg for this oversight, and our press release will be updated shortly.

I would also like to note that fan requests had considerable influence in the selection of our first Special Guests this year.

PS: For those who hadn't heard, online registration is now open! Go to https://registration.anime-expo.org/registration.php and get registered for this year's convention!

I wish my last name was as cool as "Clinkenbeard".

Freeman is the man, it's nice to see him again.

And I suppose it's nice to see Range Murata back, although since I already asked him about his work on Power Instinct last year, I don't have much else to throw at him.

I wish more seiyuu would come...Japanese voice actors and voice actresses are great. I wish these people can come in the future expo:

+Romi Paku - she voice Edward Elric from FMA (my favorite seiyuu)
+Rie Kugimiya - she voiced Alphonse Elric from FMA
+Takahiro Sakurai - he voiced Kiyomaro from Gash Bell, and Cloud in the upcoming FFVII-Advent Children
+Junko Takeuchi - she voiced Naruto from (of course) Naruto and Gon Freeces from Hunter x Hunter
+Junko Minagawa - she voiced Ryoma Echizen from Prince of Tennis

These seiyuus are either working or promoting their Movie this year ..>.<..

*I think Paku-san and Kugimiya-san are probably promoting the FMA movie right now in Japanese. Takeuchi-san's also promoting the Naruto Movie 2 and Sakurai-san is probably doing the same for Gash Bell Movie 2 and Advent children.
