Genshin Impact voice actor Brianna Knickerbocker will appear at AnimeCon UK 2023, which is billed as ‘the largest celebration of Asian pop culture in the UK’.
The American voice actor has today been announced as the latest addition to a list of industry guests appearing at AnimeCon UK 2023.
The event will be taking place on Saturday June 17th and Sunday June 18th 2023 at the Birmingham NEC, a venue which recently hosted Insomnia 70 and Resident Evil voice actors.
Brianna Knickerbocker is the newest addition to the AnimeCon UK 2023 expo. The voice-acting heavyweight is behind popular characters like Hu Tao from Genshin Impact, Sakura in Fire Emblem Fates, Nichika Ubuyashiki and Kanao Tsuyuri from Demon Slayer and Elaine in Seven Deadly Sins.
