There were a couple cool guest speakers at Fanime this year!
My anime/manga repertoire is slowly expanding, so I actually know some of the Fanime guests now. This year there were two anime voice actors that did roles I liked: Atsushi Abe and Tsubasa Yonaga.
Atsushi Abe was Mashiro from Bakuman. He was one of the racing members in Yowamushi Pedal too, and he did a character in Haikyu. He's also been in an X-Men anime? I'll have to check that out.
Tsubasa Yonaga was also in Yowamushi Pedal, and he did one of my favorite characters from the series: Manami. He also had a role in Tiger and Bunny.
I always liked Manami though, because both he and Onoda just seemed to enjoy biking up hills. Why was that important? Because it encouraged me to bike the unending hills around my house! Though Tsubasa Yonaga admitted that he's not a sporty person himself.
I got to say hi to each of them. I told Atsushi Abe that Bakuman was. great inspiration for my writing. And I told Tsubasa Yonaga that he encouraged me to bike the steep hills near my house. I've put that to good use.
