Thanks! And, yes, I really wanted to see Aaron as well as that other Man at Arms panel! I know something has to be on Sunday, but why did it have to be them?!
I wasn't familiar with Michael Sinterniklass either. (Although, when I looked him up, I realized that we saw him briefly at an anime premiere a couple years ago.) Sonny Strait was a lot of fun, and I wish I could have thought of more to say about him. Aside from his hilarious Atlantis fumble, there weren't a lot of standout moments, just a fun question and answer session.
Fan-run panels are always a little bit of a gamble if it's not someone I recognize from a previous year or another source. (Mike Toole, for example, writes for Anime News Network, putting out anime history articles that are a wonderful balance of informative and amusing.) We've attended some that were brilliant and others that were awkward and left me feeling bad for the clearly nervous presenter.
