I don't want to slip this topic into OT so I'll just say that this is normal, I'm in Pre-Convention mode, going wherever there is Anime Boston discussion to be had. Cons are great. : )
I realize there are two different threads on guests so I guess I said all I needed to in the other. ^^:;;;;;

confused You wouldn't happen to be the TMChina on c.com, AND the AB forums, the fellow in charge of the AB court case, would you? Cause if you are, one of us needs to stop stalking the other. Hehe, just kidding. Small internet.
Again, no Japanese guests that have me going gaa-gaa over. *pouts* The closest I've got in common with any of em is my Outlanders manga, that's sad.

C.Com, AB Forums, here there...Court Case....Sailor Moon Panel....et cetera et cetera....the internet's got to many places to be hehe. I'm pleased with the Japanese guests because while there are a lot of guests I'd still like to see, this is the first year I've gone to a con and the Japanese guests have worked on any project I've heard of, and in this case its multiple projects, so it's cool. But yeah I understand, there's so much anime out there it can be hard for cons to bring in guests covering all the ground. : )
