Read on for what you missed at Wondercon 2011!
New anime convention AM2, set launch later this year on July 1-3 at the Anaheim Convention Center in California, has revealed their official mascot, Nyanchala. Creatively, the character is based on the Japanese Lucky Cat, Maneki Neko, though we can't help but notice the character proportions and most notably its wings resemble the guardian beast, Kero from Cardcaptor Sakura.

Seattle based anime convention Sakura-Con has announced Vofan, illustrator for the original Bakemonogatari light novel series, as a guest of honor. Interestingly, Vofan is one of the first Taiwanese artist to have entered the anime industry successfully in Japan. Bakemonogatari was originally written by Nisio Isin and later adapted into an anime series with character designs provided by Akio Watanabe.
Sakura-Con will be held at the Washington State Convention and Trade Center on April 22-24.
