Themed the “Year of the Fan,” Anime Expo 2011 will fully immerse guests into the world of Japanese animation, manga (comic books), music and fashion. Anime Expo is a non-stop marathon of Japanese pop culture that’s been likened to Halloween in July. More information about the premiere will be announced in the coming weeks.
This isn't really new news since it was the first programming announcement for Anime Expo 2011. But it's still current news and there wasn't a thread for Last Exile -Fam, The Silver Wing already. I am going to try and see it, unless it's at a time other things are scheduled when I'm at Anime Expo.

Thats why I created it.

Four characters, three fifteen-year-old girls and one nineteen-year-old girl, have so far been revealed on the anime's official website: Fam Fan Fan, who pilots a small-sized vanship named Vespa, Giselle Collette Vint, who is Fam's close friend, Milia il Velch Cutrettola Turan, who is a princess of the Kingdom of Turan and Liliana who is Milia's older sister. The story will revolve around the conflict between the Federation of Hades and the Kingdom of Turan. The MacGuffin will be Exile, but whether it is the same Exile from the original series is not known.
Something that was very interesting was the voice cast listing. Tatiana's actor is listed and suprisingly so is Dio's. Now Tatiana isnt a shock but Dio is. Hopefully you have all seen the original and understand why it is shocking to see him name listed.
