The official Crunchyroll Industry Panel at the Japan Expo 2023 was held on Saturday, 15th July at the Paris-Nord Villepinte Exhibition Center in Paris. During the panel, multiple titles that’ll be heading to Crunchyroll in the near future were announced, including Berserk of Gluttony, and The Demon Prince of Momochi House. In addition to that, the latest trailer for Shangri-La Frontier premiered during the panel, which will arrive on Crunchyroll this October. Where are we meant to find the time to watch all of these new shows Crunchyroll keep throwing at us?
Let’s take a look at Crunchyroll’s latest acquisitions…
Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End
Studio: Madhouse
Launching 29th September, 2023
The mage Frieren defeated the Demon King alongside the hero Himmel’s party after a 10-year quest. Peace was restored to the kingdom. Because she is an elf, she is able to live over a thousand years. She promises Himmel and the others that she will be back to see them and then sets out on a journey by herself. Fifty years later, Frieren goes to visit Himmel and the others. She remained unchanged, but Himmel and the others have aged and only a little of their lives remain. Later, she witnesses Himmel’s death. Frieren is pained by her desire to have spent more time getting to know people. With that regret in her heart, she then goes on a journey to do just that. On her journey, she meets many people and many events await her.
