One Piece’s Patrick Seitz is a Featured Guest at Virtual Crunchyroll Expo 2020
Crunchyroll has announced One Piece [Franky] & JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure [Dio Brando] voice actor Patrick Seitz as a featured guest in their upcoming Virtual Crunchyroll Expo 2020 (V-CRX).
Voice actor/director Patrick Seitz, who many gaming fans will recognize as the voice of Scorpion in Mortal Kombat X and Fenrich in Disgaea 4 is officially confirmed for V-CRX this September 4-6, 2020! Virtual Crunchy Roll Expo 2020 (V-CRX) promises to bring the traditional convention experience home to anime fans similar to the recent FunimationCon 2020.
