Tomo Neko Maid Cafe 2012


Elegante Banquet Hall
10519 Victory Blvd.
North Hollywood, CA 91606
May 6 12pm-5pm

As the big anime conventions grow closer Tomo Neko Maid Cafe returns.  This time it's not happening in Little Tokyo, but North Hollywood. As a way of making up for not being there, at least to me, some well known voice actors will be attending. The list includes Crispin Freeman, Christina Vee, Richard Epcar, Kaiji Tang , Matthew Mercer and Rachel Robinson, get the full list here. You"ll be able to bid on sitting next to them it seems from the flyer. If you've heard any dubbed anime you've most likely heard all of them. Tomo Neko Maid Cafe's charity this year is Child’s Play with 100% of net profits going to them.

Gotta say hope the menu is more tasty, this time around. I'd go for the raffles, which had some top notch prizes last year in video games, anime and toys. Either way it's all for a good cause, so get your tickets early and do remember some of the maids will be men, not dressed as maids, but it's a bit odd. I believe it did get sold out last year.
