Melanie Ehrlich

LI-CON is especially proud to announce Melanie‘s appearance because our “big brother” convention, I-CON, helped her get her start. She’s gone on to tremendous success in both anime (Chizuru in Media Blasters’ first ever in-house dub of Holy Knight) and video games like Lords of Xulima and Genius Defense Force.If you’d like to hear how our convention helped her get started, come to her panels and I’m sure she’ll be glad to explain.

Michael A. Zekas, voice actor

Next to join the lineup for LI-CON 2 is Voice Actor Michael A. Zekas.  Michael has gone on to success in video games–hits such as Technobabylon and Lords of Xulima–as well as anime with the Media Blasters dub of Holy Knight and audio drama in the original work The Amazing Adventures of Action Jack & Obvious Girl.  Come join him for some colorful adventures this weekend.  It’s just as exciting behind the scenes making games and animation as it is enjoying them on a lazy Saturday.

 

Devon Talbott is a triple threat: actor, voice-over, and singer

On stage, on TV, in a film, voicing video game or anime characters, singing, producing … Devon Talbott has done all of those and more. Oh, and he’ll add one thing to that list soon: appearing at LI-CON 2. Say “Hi” to him!

6. Initial DHigh school student Takumi Fujiwara works as a gas station attendant during the day and a delivery boy for his father’s tofu shop during late nights.

More Anime!

More anime that will be shown at LI-CON. Let me repeat our thanks to Funimation for permission to show these videos.

The Devil is a Part-TimerIn another dimension the Devil King Sadao is only one step away from conquering the world when he is beaten by Hero Emilia and forced to drift to the other world: modern-day Tokyo. As “conquering the world” are the only skills the Devil King possesses – and are obviously unnecessary in his new situation – he must work as a freeter to pay for his living expenses.

xxxHOLiCKimihiro Watanuki is a young boy with a cursed gift. He has the ability to see evil spirits, and somehow they seem attracted to himself. One day he meets a misterious woman who names herself Yuuko. She claims to have the means to end his torment, but she never works for free, and she wouldn’t help him until he works for her enough to pay for her services. Thus he starts to work in her shop and discovers that in that place, nothing is what it seems.
