Three anime voice actors sit behind a long black table onstage during a live panel at FAN EXPO Dallas. They’re mid-conversation and laughing warmly with each other, each holding a microphone. The actor on the left, wearing a sleeveless shirt that reveals anime tattoos on his arm, grins as he listens. The center guest, with shoulder-length blond hair and a plaid shirt, leans forward with a smile, clearly enjoying the moment. On the right, a panelist in glasses and a vibrant anime T-shirt responds with animated enthusiasm. FAN EXPO-branded banners cover the backdrop behind them. On the table are water bottles, a purple mug, and a tall anime-themed tumbler, all contributing to the casual and fan-friendly atmosphere.
