Looks like East Coast Haruhi fans will finally get their wish fulfilled and then some. Bandai is having a screening of the film “The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya” at the New York Anime Fest (October 8-10) and the film will be introduced by none other than Yuki Nagato’s voice actress, Minori Chihara. On top of introducing the movie, it looks like she will be performing a concert, doing some panel sessions and signing autographs.

From ANN:

MinoriChihara_Artist_Pic02New York Anime Festival and Bandai Entertainment have announced on Thursday that voice actress and singer Minori Chihara will attend the October 8-10 event in New York City.

Chihara will perform a concert on October 9 and introduce a screening of The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya at the convention.

    Well said Alvin,

    still, I always wanted to go to one of those crazy screenings; they look fun. I can’t wait for this :)

    Now i’m really sad that I wasn’t born in the US. First the US gets the screening of the movie and now they get to see Minori live?

    Praise yourself lucky, Americans.

    Screw Yu-Gi-Oh Nationals, I’d much rather go to see the movie! I mean, Disappearance, the movie I’ve been dying to see (Not enough to watch the terrible camrip) AND a concert! That beats getting tossed around by net-deckers any day of the millennium!

    YAY. I am so hyped
    Its finally coming to NY and the best part is that the location is an easy drive from my house. I MUST BUY THE TICKETS. I am so going to get an autograph from Minori Chihara.

    To bad for L.A. they can’t meet Minori Chihara but NY can. HAHAHA who’s laughing now

    Im sad to live in a small town like circleville. (For those of you who don’t know about it, it’s in America) Cause we have no theatres, or anything. And the fact that Im 13 states my chances of getting to NY are zero =’( WHY COULDN’T I HAVE BEEN BORN IN NY?!?!

  • haruhi fan said:

    i need to get there! only 3 hours away!!

  • Loser said:

    Meh, it’ll come to an introverted cheapskate like me on the internets one day…

    I really don’t care about Minori’s signature. She just voice acts, what about all of those (probably) underpaid animators actually bringing it to life? It seems the hardest/most tedious jobs are the ones that don’t get you appreciated.

  • coolpinkey said:

    YES!!! Finnally! Thank Haruhi that I live in Massachussetts! I SO wanna see this…

  • Jose Emanuel Cerezo said:
