I'm so jealous of you guys on the west-coast! It seems so much easier to have Japanese guests at conventions... That list is very impressive.

Do they still have problems with those Carpenter Unions protesting the event?

Ooh, that's super cool of Urobuchi to be attending. Would this be his first con visit to the states, then? I sure hope there this will be some meaningful Q&A going on with him, if there's to be any Q&A with him in the first place... maybe we'll even get to know things about Madoka that haven't already been addressed in the PM Wiki, or at least get less-confusing translated answers to questions that have already been asked, in one way or another, on the wiki.

There'll definitely be a Q&A, it's actually in the contract that all of our guests sign that they have to do one.

Is that what was going on last year? I assumed it was unrelated... guess that means they aren't doing a very good job.

Looking forward to getting my Madoka set autographed. There's a high likelyhood this'll be my last Sakura Con, so yay for a decent guest list!

That, or they feel that having Vic Mignogna around is detrimental to the community at large. Given he's a complete and utter douche-bag and "created" that stupid GIRGUAMESH meme from the video he made for Sukura Con.

We actually haven't had Vic in quite a while. At least the past 2 years.
