Funimation announce schedule for Anime Expo 2019
With over a week until Anime Expo, Funimation unveiled their plans for the convention yesterday.
As expected, the popular anime distributor will have a slew of special events taking place throughout the four day convention. Among these events are the premiere screenings for the Human Lost dub and Hensuki.
If you’re not going to be there in person, Funimation have you covered with a special livestream taking place on Saturday, July 6. Hosting the stream are Emma Fyffe (Collider), Matt Acevedo (Ultimate Fictional Character Podcast), and Cheyenne Ewulu (CheyenneKPOP). During this five hour livestream, these three will talk to various guests about all things anime.
A quick rundown of their schedule can be seen below. Head over to Funimation’s website for a more detailed look at what they have in store.
