SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON

Culver City, California (July 6, 2023) – As anime continues to grow worldwide and is woven into the pop cultural zeitgeist, there’s no better way to experience anime than at the biggest entertainment fan event of the year – San Diego Comic-Con!
Crunchyroll will once again head down to sunny San Diego Comic-Con to bring anime fans a slate of ani-mazing events, including the first-ever Crunchyroll Ultimate Anime Fitness Challenge, massive and immersive show floor pieces, insightful panels and first-ever anime exhibits at the Comic-Con Museum.
Have you ever wanted to train like your favorite anime character? Crunchyroll is teaming up with Hardcore Fitness in Downtown San Diego to create
Crunchyroll’s Ultimate Anime Fitness Challenge, putting bodies in motion for a unique training arc. Crunchyroll subscribers and SDCC badge holders looking to get swole (it’s really a non-intensive, light workout) can sign up for sessions at 9:00AM and 10AM on Friday, Jul 21st and Saturday, July 22nd. Fitness writer, influencer and anime fan Charles Thorp will take trainees through accessible fitness routines inspired by anime heroes—weight training, self-defense and more!

All weekend long, Crunchyroll will be on the San Diego Comic-Con show floor where its most advanced booth ever [#4135] will activate with scenes and sounds from hit anime, whisking fans away into beloved worlds. Comic-Con goers that long for their own domain expansions may enter The JUJUTSU KAISEN Experience, where fans will find themselves immersed in iconic moments.
No booth is complete without swag! Crunchyroll is giving out Dragon Ball Super: SUPER HERO wristbands. Fans can also bring home Solo Leveling and Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba posters alongside giveaway art cards for JUJUTSU KAISEN and My Hero Academia art cards.
In homage to the classic legends and new-generation favorites of the pop culture world, Crunchyroll is presenting new exhibits and features at Comic-Con Museum. Beginning Tuesday, July 18 at 10AM PT, a statue depicting the legendary fight between My Hero Academia’s All Might and All for One will be on display, and in partnership with Mondo, Crunchyroll will honor Cowboy Bebop’s 25th anniversary with an exhibit that features 28 never-before-seen commissioned art pieces. Tickets are available on the Comic-Con Museum Official Website.

Hardcore Fitness – 1014 Fifth Ave STE 120, San Diego, CA 92101
Ready to learn to workout like your favorite anime characters? Crunchyroll will pump the iron (again, a light workout…) and the jams because no workout is complete without a killer playlist. When the music stops, attendees can take back some electrolytes and wipe off that thick post-workout sweat (a light workout, we promise!) with a free Crunchyroll Water Bottle and Crunchyroll Gym Towel—spoiler warning: they’re a very cool orange! Oh, and it’s not a workout without a complimentary smoothie—also orange.
