This was actually my favorite con experience personally. The Good: 1. Voice Actors: Meeting JYB was the highlight of the con, though I wish he had more autograph sessions and stuff, but you can't win them all. I also ran into Lisa Ortiz, and Jennifer Tedmon who I had no idea were there, as they weren't guests. And I got to meet all the VAs I wanted except Todd Haberkorn. 2. People/friends: I was able to hang out with my friends, which is always fun. I also ran into a friend who I had not seen since middle school, Mr. AJ Cosplay, and many other people. This con more-so than others, the people who I talked to were really cool and chill. 3. Wonderful cosplay all throughout the con. The Bad: Autographs: While I personally met most of the people I wanted to, I will agree with everyone else that the autographs need improvement.

Are we allowed to go to the same persons autograph line twice in one session let's say if we want them to sign more items than just one.

Wait there are exclusive actors for the DB Tour? Who are they or am I just reading things wrong?

They mentioned special thanks to Funimation for helping us bringing him out so maybe their booth. And the schedule previously had panels with Cherami Leigh, which were removed so I don't know man.

I just hope Johnny Yong Bosch has some booth signings, since he only has one session. And it sucks that he's not getting his own panel. At least put him on a Panel with Todd or something.

I feel as though there is a way to balance the paid vs. free autograph system by setting up free sessions, but also paid booth timings if needed. Especially if the guests are big and only have one autograph session. Thanks for the insight.

I get where they are coming from with autographs, but JYB only has one. The dude is massively popular and has not been to the con in a long time. I hope they give him a paid booth or something.

I hope Johnny Yong Bosch has a booth at the con, bc I don't think 1 autograph session will be enough, considering how popular he is.

Round 3 of requests: Justin Briner Clifford Chapin Beau Billingslea Melissa Fahn Skip Stellrecht Lia Sargent Paul St. Peter Jeff Nimoy Les E. Claypool III Mary Claypool

For anyone who was requesting Erica Lindbeck, unfortunately she will be at Animethon in Canada that same weekend.

I would like to take this time to explain my reasoning for certain guests I requested. Johnny Yong Bosch, Mary Elizabeth McGlynn, and Steve Blum have not come to Otakon in over 5 years(in Blum's case over 10). Grey DeLisle and Phil LaMarr have both done a little bit of anime, but also have had big roles in Asian influenced animation(Avatar: The Last Airbender, Samurai Jack etc.) It would be a nice change of pace seeing them there. Matt Mercer, Marisha Ray, and Kari Wahlgren have never been to Otakon so they are great options for fresh faces.
