Hibiki Anime Shop Welcomes Voice Actor Matthew Mercer and Television Host Marisha Ray

HALIFAX, NS - May 11th, 2014 - Hibiki Anime Shop, Atlantic Canada's first full-time anime and manga shop, is very pleased to announce that it will be hosting voice actor MATTHEW MERCER (Captain Levi, Attack on Titan; Leon S. Kennedy, Resident Evil) and television host/respected cosplayer MARISHA RAY, in their first ever Canadian appearance, as guests for its grand opening weekend (early September, final date TBD)!

MATTHEW MERCER is a Los Angeles-based actor/voice actor known primarily for his roles in animation and video games. His extensive training in theater, improv, and being a life-long hardcore gamer helped prepare him for such projects and characters as Leon Kennedy in Resident Evil 6 and Resident Evil: Damnation, Captain Levi in Attack on Titan, Kiritsugu Emiya in Fate/Zero, Gundahar in KNACK, Anarky in Batman: Arkham Origins, Alvin in Tales of Xillia, Sinbad in Magi, Kuroh Yatogami in K, Rexxar in Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft, Iron Man/Tony Stark in Iron Man: Rise of Technovore, Walter in Shin Megami Tensei IV, Rihan Nura in Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan, Tygra in Cartoon Network's Thundercats, Chrom in Fire Emblem: Awakening, Reapmon/Beelzemon in Digimon Fusion, and many other projects.

MARISHA RAY is an Actor, Host, Writer, Producer, and all-around Geek Girl based out of Los Angeles, CA. You can see her work on such shows as Batgirl: Spoiled (Batgirl/ Stephanie Brown), Super Power Beat Down (Host), Proxy: A Slenderman Story (Jess), The Grind (Host), Written By a Kid (Sally McGreese) and many other web projects. At a young age, Marisha had an itch for performing and got her start in theater on the east coast performing throughout New York, Chicago, and Orlando. She took her education, unlike most other things, very seriously, training at the American Academy of the Dramatic Arts, Point Park University Conservatory of Performing Arts, Governors School for the Arts, and LA Connection Comedy Theater. Since arriving in Los Angeles in 2008, Marisha has worked with such networks as Spike TV, Halmark Channel, and MTV. Marisha has been clutching a game controller nearly constantly since the age of 3, and her love for video gaming very much colors her comedy and writing career.
