(UPDATED) K-ON! Seiyuus @ Anime Expo 2011?
We've been hearing chatter within the industry lines for the past few months that Japanese voice actresses for a popular anime series about a high school girl band may be making an appearance at this year's Anime Expo, North America's largest anime convention.
Further speculation has flared recently when Bandai Entertainment, the American license holder of the series, posted this on their official Twitter page last week:
This posts suggests that there will be some type of performance from the K-ON! series at Anime Expo, though it could be very well just the American voice acting cast.
With only 2 weeks away, and a rather sparse guest list for their twentieth anniversary, we should be hearing the exact details soon. In the meantime, feel free to take guesses in the comments.
UPDATE: Bandai has confirmed on their official Facebook page that the English voice cast will be present at Anime Expo performing at their booth.
"SATURDAY JULY 2
2:00 - 3:30pm @ Bandai/Aniplex Booth 901 > K-ON! Musical event and Autograph session with Stephanie Sheh, Cristina Vee, Cassandra Lee Morris, Shelby Lindley, and Christine Marie Cabanas"
[GSC] Nendoroid K-ON! Yui and Tsumugi: Live Stage Set
With Wonder Festival Summer 2010 creeping around the corner, companies could not but help leak some of the goodies that will be available for order or pre-order.
Last Wonder Festival we saw two Nendroids; Mio and Ritsu, both in their Live Stage outfits. With the second season anime just as popular as ever, K-ON! is getting more Nendoroid treatment, this time featuring both the guitarist "Yui Hirasawa" and the keyboardist "Tsumugi Kotobuki" wearing the costumes they wore at Sakura High's Festival.
Both figures come with two different expressions as well as their respective instruments, and Yui even comes with castanets to recreate the ever-popular "Untan ♪" scene! The set also comes with a di:stage for them to perform on till their heart's are content!
K-ON! Live Action Ending
An adult adaptation of K-ON! was release recently by TMA titled Keion!, and oddly enough they recreated the ending credit sequence for the series and at least 15 minutes of other scenes from the series. Check out the videos inside.
