Crunchyroll Expo might be virtual again this year, but don’t think for a second the event is slacking off in 2021. The convention is going hard with its guest list for fans, and that isn’t even considering the virtual program. Now, Crunchyroll Expo is starting to roll out info on the schedule, and fans will be delighted by what they’ll find.
Not long ago, Crunchyroll Expo shared its first wave of schedule announcements for this year’s virtual convention. The event, which takes place August 5-7, will feature a very special premiere of TONIKAWA: Over the Moon for You OVA that will leave fans with all kinds of emotions.
