The 100,000 attendance over the two-day is still lower than the 2019 event, the last outing for AnimeJapan before the COVID-19 pandemic began, which saw 146,000 people attend. The 2023 event was the first “complete” event since then with the 2020 event canceled outright, the 2021 was an online only event and 2022 saw AnimeJapan be online with a limited in-person event.
