Can we not get anyone Japanese u_u this is why I haven't gone since 2003. At least the one guest they managed to snag it actually cool and has old school credit.

If goods weren't iffy and they had real panels I would consider a go. Not to mention the price tag is outrageous for what you get.

While the Chris Sabat fans will be pleased about this, I personally thought that Sabat was taking Winnipeg anime fans for granted during his attendance at the previous year's Ai-Kon. In other words, his attitude seemed to indicate that Winnipeg anime fans are just another group of people on his business trip. You would think that someone who had never been to Winnipeg before would've expressed more genuine interest in being in Winnipeg.

Sorry if I'm sounding rude but when you consider that there are those who appreciate Sabat's work and never met him before in person (like me), Sabat's indifferent attitude just comes off as a major punch to the gut.
