Robert DeJesus was on hand with his fiancee, who had an arm in a sling. Katsucon's staff had worked hard to make sure that Emily Brown's problem was properly treated.

"I'm Mink," actor Jessica Calvello might have said, but didn't." A few weeks before the convention, she and the rest of an ADV Films cast had finished dubbing Dragon Half, which was shown for the first time at Katsucon.

Not in the dub was actor Tristan MacAvery, who used this plastic expanding to demonstrate what anime does to the brain.

Rikki Simons took a picture of the crowd while wife Tavisha rambled on about her joy at attending Katsucon. Rikki replied "And I'm so hungry," then the audience laughed.


Tastefully, Toshi Yoshida of Viz Communications did not use the opening ceremonies to talk about the massive sales of Pokemon material that company has been enjoying in recent months.
