Crunchyroll at Comic-Com

Crunchyroll, the global leader in bringing the ultimate anime experience to fans in over 200 countries and territories, has announced its plans for Comic-Con International at the San Diego Convention Center from July 21-24 with interactive experiences, panels, music series, and so much more. Many of Crunchyroll’s activations and fan events will support the upcoming film, Dragon Ball Super: SUPER HERO, in North American theaters on August 19.

After the announced Dragon Ball Super panel, the party continues with a special two-night Crunchyroll Concert Series at the iconic Rady Shell at Jacobs Park that includes the Crunchyroll-Hime Dance Party with DJ Jun Inagawa, with 88rising’s powerhouse J-Pop group ATARASHII GAKKO!.

Saturday will bring a special curated immersive musical experience, presented by Crunchyroll and Toei Animation in partnership with Overlook Events.

A fan favorite, the Crunchyroll Industry Panel, returns for all the latest news, trailers, and more, kicking off the ‘Con.

Crunchyroll has also branded city buses from the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System throughout the ‘Con featuring My Hero Academia, Chainsaw Man, Attack on Titan, SPY x FAMILY, and others.

Crunchyroll newspapers will be printed and distributed to cover all the latest and greatest anime news from the Comic-Con. Crunchyroll will also be satisfying fans with cool free giveaways and handouts at every activation.

And every anime fan in attendance will live and breathe anime all weekend long.

CRUNCHYROLL INDUSTRY PANEL

Thursday, July 21, TBD | Room 6A

All the latest and greatest anime coming out of Crunchyroll straight from the source from Crunchyroll’s own Tim Lyu and Lauren Moore.

CRUNCHYROLL CONCERT SERIES AT THE RADY SHELL

Friday and Saturday, July 22 and 23 | The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park

Two nights of fun and immersive music and dance experiences, including;

CRUNCHYROLL AND 88rising PRESENT:

CRUNCHYROLL-HIME DANCE PARTY WITH DJ JUN INAGAWA WITH ATARASHII GAKKO!

Friday, July 22 at 7 pm-9:30 pm | The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park

A high-impact performance with anime-inspired elements and a dance crew! 88Rising’s powerhouse J-Pop girl group ATARASHII GAKKO! represent a new generation of Japanese youth, embracing personal expression and pushing against traditional boundaries a little at a time. The outlandish quartet — composed of kawaii-but-fierce Mizyu, wildcard Suzuka, graceful Kanon, and funky Rin — break down genre walls to create music mixing elements of pop, jazz, hip-hop, rock, and more. DJ Jun Inagawa opens the Crunchyroll-Hime Dance Party for anime fans to get their groove on!

ATARASHII GAKKO! (literally meaning “new school” in Japanese) are a group of four young women who are redefining what it means to be a girl group. They wear sailor-fuku (sailor suits) uniforms in a style worn by Japanese students back in the 70s and 80s with long skirts and pulled-up socks and staunchly refuse to be objectified. Their aggressive and expressive dance moves, which they choreograph themselves, are a hybrid of the energy of Japanese butoh dance, heavy metal headbanging, and hip-hop street dancing. Musically, AG! brings together elements of modern J-Pop, Showa-era kayokyoku, rap, punk, and dance music, but it would be pointless to try to categorize them in any genre.

DRAGON BALL Z CONCERT EXPERIENCE AND CRUNCHYROLL-HIME ANIMATA DANCE PARTY

Saturday, July 23 at 7 pm | The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park

The Dragon Ball Z Concert Experience – Comic-Con International Premiere Edition combines the senses and sounds of Dragon Ball Z, together with a world-renowned orchestra, live vocals, and a legendary composer, to create a truly immersive multimedia, one-of-a-kind curated concert experience. Nicholas Buc, Conductor, and San Diego Symphony Orchestra power up for the experience…

Both events are free to San Diego Comic-Con badge holders.

Get ready for Crunchyroll at Comic-Con!
