Expo during the upcoming July 4th weekend, promising its most remarkable
fan experience yet. Over the course of the four-day event, which is North
America’s largest annual anime convention, HIDIVE will showcase highly
anticipated series from its summer and fall simulcast line-ups for 2023.
Fans can look forward to a variety of exciting activities, including
screenings, interactive panels, photo opportunities, and giveaways,
including an unprecedented six major premieres.
HIDIVE will kick off the festivities on July 1, the opening day of Anime
Expo, with premieres for three top titles. First up is the world premiere
of the second season of the fall simulcast series, The Eminence in Shadow.
This dual world premiere will feature separate screenings with English
subtitles and dubbing for Episode 1 on July 1 and July 4 respectively, each
followed by a Q&A session with guests from both the Japanese and English
dub casts. Following that, the North American premiere of the new
action-fantasy series, Helck, from the summer simulcast line-up will be
presented.
The first day will conclude with the U.S. premiere of the new
comedy-fantasy series, Level 1 Demon Lord and One Room Hero, which is also
part of the summer simulcast line-up, as part of HIDIVE’s Industry Panel.
Days 2 and 3 will showcase the North American premieres of two new
simulcast series, The Most Heretical Last Boss Queen: from Villainess to
Savior and Dark Gathering, respectively. Lastly, Day 4 will feature the
previously mentioned world premiere dub screening of Episode 1 from The
Eminence in Shadow 2nd Season.
Throughout the convention, fans are welcome to visit HIDIVE’s new booth,
which will offer multiple photo opportunities and daily promotional
giveaways. Attendees of HIDIVE events or visitors to the HIDIVE exhibit
