The latest animated feature of Type Moon's Fate series, Fate/strange Fake -Whispers of Dawn-, will have a special screening at Anime Expo! In fact, it's going to be the English world premiere, presented specially by Aniplex.
Anime Expo and Atlus recently announced their first musical act for this year's convention: Shin Megami Tensei: Band of Shadows.
I briefly touched upon lotteries and concerts in the recent Walkure post. If you're a Hatsune Miku fan, this one is for you. The 2023 edition of Magical Mirai is currently open to all for ticket applications! Tickets are sadly not guaranteed, but you do have a decent shot between twelve different performances split between Osaka and Tokyo.
Macross Delta's Walkure idol group is currently undergoing their final run of performances. Delta was first launched in 2016 as the latest incarnation of the Macross franchise and Walkure has had quite the longevity since then. I've actually never seen the full Walkure group in person. We were lucky enough to see JUNNA (Mikumo) and Minori Suzuki (Freyja) at Anime Expo in 2017 as part of Anisong World Matsuri, but never the whole group.
Fanime will be coming up in a little less than a month, so it's time for a rundown!
Love Live is nothing new to Anime Expo. Aquors has graced the stage here multiple times, with the most recent being in 2019. No one could have predicted a multi-year break, but here we are. Time to get back up to speed.
Japanese band MAN WITH A MISSION has not seen the US shores for a good four years now. Rumor had it that the wolves would make an appearance once more, and as of today, that is now confirmed. The band will be making their long-awaited return in just two months.
NEMOPHILA's second album, "Seize the Fate," has been officially released as of this month. As is customary, I put a couple of playthroughs through my headphones and speakers before putting words on screen. Quick verdict: worth your listening, and then some.
LOVEBITES' newest album, "Judgement Day," releases on February 22. The band will have a special live-streamed premiere session the day prior on February 21! You'll be able to listen to the album alongside the band and chat with them.
