I'm not really the type to go to these conventions... But I might go to this one.

As much as I'd like to go, I don't think that taking a very long drive just to go see the voice of Luffy is worth it.

FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUU-

Her first U.S. appearance? Why don't these people ever come to Texas!? And, damn, she was the kid in Castle in the Sky? I only ever saw the Disney dub; have to get it sometime.

Vic Mignogna? Going to an anime convention?

That's unpossible!

I was actually boned out of a chance to see Mayumi Tanaka once. She was supposed to come to Anime Expo New York the one time they tried that silly adventure, but she had to cancel at the last minute. She sent a video apology, though, which they played at the opening ceremony. That was something, at least... :(

So on the West Coast, Sakura Con's got Mayumi Tanaka and the East, Anime Boston has Nobuo Uematsu. I also find it interesting they take place the same days.

Fuck yeah! I can't wait!

Last year I missed my chance to see Kappei Yamaguchi because I was stuck being part of Sakura-Con secuity. :cry: I'm NOT doin' that this year!

*Sigh* If only I had a Dragon Box Z volume for her to sign...

I live too far away, but it's awesome to hear she'll be at a con. Does anyone know if Ms. Tanaka's fluent in English like Ryo Horikawa is?

I want to go. Badly. Not only because I'm a huge Dragon Ball fan, but because I'm a huge One Piece fan :shock:

Aw, I wish I could meet Mayumi Tanaka.

Vic Mignogna... not so much.
Kentai wrote:Son Gokuu is a fascinating character anyway, because he is - at face value, anyway - an idiot savant. The victim of violent head trauma as an infant [...] he's a simple bumpkin with a fair share of brain damage who's natural talents to work out what's wrong compensate for his broad lack of common sense. But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

I'm gonna be going! (Hopefully) and I'll be dressed as Luffyko from the SBS of One Piece! So its gonna be fun being there dressed as (Kinda) one of her most famous characters XD

(For anyone who cares, Oda introduced a character who can change other characters' Genders, he was asked in an SBS what the Straw Hats would look ike genderswapped, so he drew them all. Luffyko is what the fans cal girl Luffy)
