Japanese filmmaker Makoto Shinkai has rocketed to anime stardom in recent years thanks to being the director of Your Name and the films after it (like that one about the guy who turns into a chair). But his career actually stretches back farther than that, and a new one-day pop-up exhibit arranged by Crunchyroll will display the man’s full filmography.

If you missed Makoto Shinkai’s Suzume when it first appeared in theaters last spring, you’ve been gifted a second chance. The film has returned to US screens this weekend.

Crunchyroll’s fall 2023 schedule is a lengthy one, and they’ve decided they need some kind of memetic memorization tool to help people keep track of it all.

The most anticipated anime of 2024 was confirmed for a US release (as if there was any doubt) from Crunchyroll today at their NYCC panel. Kaiju No 8 was announced for development earlier this year and is now on track for a spring debut.
