Lemar Harris, known to fans as LemarTheConGuy, is a comedian, convention emcee, content creator, streamer, and TTRPG performer who specializes in one thing above all else: turning convention audiences into participants!
With more than 20 convention appearances across the United States, Lemar has developed and hosted interactive programming ranging from anime karaoke and comedy competitions to improv, game shows, and tabletop roleplaying. His convention experience includes Anime Expo, Holiday Matsuri, Origins Game Fair, Saboten Con, and celebrating his 10th year with Anime Los Angeles!
Lemar’s strength as a host comes from his ability to adapt to the room. He has hosted audiences of more than 2,000 people while also running smaller, highly interactive panels where audience participation is the centerpiece. His programming has included The Otaku Comedy Tournament, Karaoke 101, Otaku Feud, Make Weebs Laugh, 2 Truths and a Lie, Make My Pokedex, and the newest addition The D20 Grand Prix!
His recent convention work has expanded that repertoire even further. At Origins Game Fair 2026, Lemar hosted their first ever Cosplay Masquerade and Cosplay Karaoke on multiple nights!
A major part of Lemar’s creative career is tabletop roleplaying. He has appeared in numerous TTRPG productions and actual-play streams, playing games including Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder, Vampire: The Masquerade, and Cyberpunk RED. His recent work includes multiple appearances on No Latency’s Cyberpunk RED SideQuest series, and A featured guest for Darkness Emergent VTM LARP
For Lemar, convention hosting isn’t simply about standing on a stage and reading a schedule. His goal is to create the kind of programming that attendees remember after the convention is over. Whether that means getting a packed room singing an anime opening, putting strangers together into an improvised game, creating ridiculous characters on stage, or turning a panel into a full-on comedy experience.
With his combination of live comedy, audience interaction, anime fandom, karaoke, game-show hosting, improvisation, and TTRPG experience, LemarTheConGuy brings a flexible, high-energy presence that can work across a wide variety of Animé Los Angeles programming.
