The last con....

No, not for me. I'm still going to cons whenever possible- though I think this year I'm skipping ColossalCon, if just because I need to save money for some serious cosplaying here!! (Zexion wig, HERE WE COME!) But someone we all know and love has gone to his last anime convention this past weekend. NDK Denver

That's right. Chris Patton.

Christopher Patton voices a lot of small characters and a few mains, but ALL of them I love! (Except in Narama Daikon Brothers..... but that's just because I couldn't stand the panda >_>) Including Greed in FMA, Asura in Soul Eater, Souske Sagara in Full Metal Panic, Lavi in D.Gray-Man, Hajime in Ghost Stories, Fakir in Princess TuTu, and Tatsuhiro in Welcome to the NHK. And those are just the ones I know by name!
The guy is not only an epic voice actor, but he is an amazing guy. Friendly and always good to his fans- and utterly HILARIOUS XD His last con was NDK in Denver, the one before in Michigan, where I met him for the first and, sadly, the last time. He says he had a blast, he thanked his fans on his Facebook page, and even though he's leaving the anime business I'm going to continue following him. I mean, he's not only a great guy, but he's strong and I like the way he thinks. I like to hear his thoughts and about his life.
So, congrats to the fantastic Mr. Patton for doing everything you wanted to do and now heading off into the sunset. I'll miss you in the anime world- still, I'm following you ;)
