Once again Danny Choo and Courtney Kraft took to the stage to welcome the numerous guests of honor at this year's convention.

For the majority of the guest of honor this was their first time attending Anime Expo and they were impress by the level of enthusiasm not only during the opening ceremonies but at their respective panels as well.

Almost every single part of the anime industry was represented here with writers, directors, singers, voice actors\actresses, character designers, cosplayers, fashion designers, presidents and producers.

Watch the entire opening ceremonies here.
