Crunchyroll Plans San Diego Comic-Con Concerts

5 Comments | anime, Crunchyroll, LiSA, One Piece, SDCC | By | | 2 minutes of reading

Crunchyroll won’t just be holding the usual events and panels at this month’s San Diego Comic-Con, they’ll be hosting entire concerts. Two, to be specific.

The first one features LiSA, the J-pop star who’s also the subject of a concert film that Crunchyroll has licensed for US distribution in August. You’ll have the chance to see her live before then, on Friday, July 26, at The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park. Anyone with a valid SDCC pass can attend the concert for free. LiSA’s songs have been featured in some of Crunchyroll’s most popular anime; she sung multiple themes for Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba (“homura” from Mugen Train and “Gurenge” from the anime series); My Hero Academia (“Datte Atashino Hero”), Sword Art Online (“Crossing Field”), and The Irregular at Magic High School (“Rising Hope”).

The following day, the same location will play host to the One Piece 25th Anniversary: Symphonic Voyage. On Saturday, July 27 at 7:00 PM, the 40+ piece San Diego Symphony will conduct a 90-minute performance of some of the most iconic tracks from the anime’s long history. If you get there early, you can participate in a variety of OP-themed activities that open at 5 PM, including the Gum-Gum Punch Challenge with Luffy, photo opportunities with Nami, and a playable version of Brook’s piano. Once again, anyone with an SDCC badge will be allowed in for free.

Crunchyroll will have its own booth at SDCC (#4135) but you can find more One Piece stuff at the Toei Animation booth (#3635) and the podcast stage (#4135). San Diego Comic-Con 2024 runs from July 25 through July 28.

I'm so excited about Crunchyroll's plans for San Diego Comic-Con this year! Having LiSA perform live is a fantastic treat for fans. Her music is iconic, especially her contributions to anime like Demon Slayer and Sword Art Online. It’s incredible that anyone with a valid SDCC pass can attend for free. I’m definitely marking my calendar for July 26th. The One Piece symphonic concert sounds equally amazing. Celebrating 25 years of One Piece with a symphony performance is a brilliant idea. The activities beforehand, like the Gum-Gum Punch Challenge, make it even more engaging. I can't wait to be there!

This is such a cool move by Crunchyroll! LiSA's concert at The Rady Shell is a major highlight for SDCC. Her songs are anthems in the anime world, and seeing her live will be incredible. Free entry for SDCC pass holders is a fantastic perk. The One Piece symphony on the following day is a brilliant idea too. Celebrating the 25th anniversary with a live orchestra playing the iconic tracks is a fitting tribute. The extra activities, like photo ops and Brook’s playable piano, add a fun element to the experience. Crunchyroll is really upping the ante this year!

Crunchyroll hosting concerts at SDCC is a game-changer! LiSA performing live is a huge draw. Her music has defined many anime experiences for me, and this concert is a must-see. Offering it for free to SDCC pass holders is generous. The One Piece 25th Anniversary: Symphonic Voyage is equally impressive. A live symphony playing tracks from One Piece is going to be a memorable experience. The pre-concert activities sound like a blast too. Crunchyroll is really going all out to make this SDCC unforgettable. I’m definitely planning to attend both concerts.

Wow, Crunchyroll is really stepping up their game for SDCC this year! Having LiSA perform live is amazing. Her music is a big part of why shows like Demon Slayer and Sword Art Online are so memorable. Free access for SDCC pass holders is such a great bonus. The One Piece symphonic concert sounds like an epic way to celebrate its 25th anniversary. Hearing the iconic tracks performed live by a symphony is going to be a unique experience. The extra activities sound fun too. Crunchyroll is making sure there’s something special for every anime fan at SDCC.

I love that Crunchyroll is bringing live music to SDCC! LiSA’s concert is a huge highlight. Her songs are legendary in the anime community, and seeing her perform live is an amazing opportunity. Free entry with an SDCC pass is awesome. The One Piece symphonic concert the next day is a perfect way to celebrate the show's 25th anniversary. Hearing those tracks played by a live orchestra will be unforgettable. The additional activities like the Gum-Gum Punch Challenge and photo ops add even more excitement. Crunchyroll is definitely making SDCC extra special this year
