Where to Watch Aniplex Online Fest 2022 As It Happens

Aniplex Online Fest 2022

 

Disclosure: Crunchyroll is part of a joint venture between Sony Pictures Entertainment and Aniplex.

 

We’re just a day away from the launch of Aniplex Online Fest 2022, which includes a free YouTube livestream alongside the in-person event that’s being held at the PACIFICO Yokohama National Convention Hall on September 23. Earlier this month we got a look at many of the special guests and performers that will be making an appearance, including the return of hosts Sally Amaki and Hisanori Yoshida, so now it’s time to prepare to watch it all go down live.

If you want to keep up with the announcements, musical acts and more as they hit the stage, you’ll be able to do so via Aniplex’s YouTube channel on Friday, September 23 at 8:00pm Pacific Time. To make it even easier, you can just park yourself right here at the embedded video below.

 

 

There’s also a watch party that begins a half hour before the event itself, featuring none other than Crunchyroll’s very own VTuber Crunchyroll-Hime and the many talents from PRISM Project. You can check that out via the PRISM Project YouTube channel starting at 7:30pm PT on September 23.
