CrunchyRoll: Comic Con Panel Details

Hello there CrunchyRoll fans! I’m excited to be writing this article. This year at San Diego Comic-Con, a panel was healed for CrunchyRoll and all their announcements coming this year! We got to look into the newest anime shows, find a little more about VRV (sister site) and see some familiar faces return.

First off, the panel was very fun and exciting. There were some wristbands handed out and we all got to represent CR. The panel also held game trivia, and some people got to win prizes and action figures. Every anime, manga, show, etc. was announced and explained and a video followed any of the shows that are on.

How to Not Summon a Demon Lord
First up, we got to look into How to Not Summon a Demon Lord. This anime is based on novels written by Yukiya Murasaki. The story involves Takuma, a big gamer and fan of MMORPG’s and two girls names Rem and Shera. Rem and Shera cast a spell on Takuma and he is transported inside of his game Cross Reverie, where he takes on his characters appearance of Demon Lord Diablo. The two girls try to enslave him, but end up casting a wrong spell and enslaving themselves to Diablo with collars on them. Now they must go through the journey of trying to free the girls. Takuma also has social anxiety and uses Diablo as a way to get around the game and stay confident. Don’t miss out, the first four episodes are streaming now!

Angels of Death
We were also introduced to Angels of Death. This was Japanese horror game by Hoshikuzu for Windows. A manga of it was created in 2015, and the anime was made in 2016. Thirteen-year-old Rachel (Ray) witnesses a murder and is taken to counseling. She then ends up waking up in a basement with no recollection of how she got there and the only thing she can remember is the murder. Ray almost gets killed by her councilor, but then a serial killer named Zack steeps in and saves her. Ray ironically ends up asking Zack to kill her in exchange that she helps him escape the building. They have a lot of floors to climb up and lots of murders around. There has been six episodes made and the last one was aired December 2017. The first three episodes are now being streamed in America. It’s a very thrilling anime so make sure you catch it!
