| Ronnie Guy and Vic Mignogna at ACEN |
When it comes to anime voice actors, few have a list of roles as
extensive as Vic Mignogna. After having shot onto the scene in the 90’s as Vega in Street Fighter II V, there was no stopping Mr. Mignogna from fulfilling
a path full of incredibly influential characters in anime. His role as Edward Elric in Fullmetal
Alchemist was so impressive that he received the award for Best Actor from
the American Anime Awards.
Vic is not only a
great voice actor, he is also an awesome human being who is so grateful for being able to do something he loves while also bringing happiness to so
many fans. At Anime Central(ACEN) 2012 in
Rosemont, Illinois, Vic made it known that he was overwhelmed with gratitude for
what he has been lucky enough to do for a living.
Being one of the more recognizable faces in American anime, he is not afraid to show how grateful he is by spending the extra time providing handshakes, pictures, and autographs for fans. This was even more apparent by Vic’s willingness to talk at an ACEN press panel and provide heartfelt and honest answers to any question the press panel could produce. When asked if he missed being just another random person in the crowd at conventions, Vic respond "I don't miss it. I am so overwhelmed with gratitude for what I get to do. I don't ever want to take that for granted."
