 AnimeJapan—one of the world's largest anime conventions—will be held for the seventh time from Saturday, March 27 through Sunday, March 28 (JST). The convention has hosted over 100 exhibitors and 100,000 guests yearly at Tokyo Big Sight since its inaugural event in 2014, but was cancelled last year and will be held virtually this year due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. AnimeJapan 2021 will feature four stages with content from across the anime industry. Three of them make up the AJ Stage and will focus on airing and upcoming anime. Viewers can expect to see panel discussions with anime cast members and staff, during which new information may be revealed. The fourth—AJ Studio—will feature a greater variety of content streamed with shorter intermissions. The AJ Stage and AJ Studio streams can be viewed with the purchase of a single ticket, and the AJ Stage will feature an English commentary stream supported by Anime Festival Asia. Each day costs 3,200 yen (approx. US$29.50), or both days are available for 6,100 yen (approx. US$56). These paid streams will only be accessible from Hong Kong, Japan, Macau, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and the United States.

| Oh, this is wonderful! Thanks, @ImperfectBlue! A real pity though that I'll most likely miss most of these events though because of my ongoing bloody mid-terms ;-; Expecting a few big announcements (SnK: Final Season Part 2, Re:Zero S3, Bleach etc.) to come this weekend, please don't let me down. |
#Anime4Life be my Life Motto! #PrayForKyoAni  |
| Zombieland Saga Revenge pre broadcasting and Liella live broadcast look very interesting. It’s time to pay some money for the streams!? 🤔🤔 I also expect a lot of big announcements especially the sequel one. |
何それ？意味分かんない  |
| yup... guess I'll stay tuned on MAL. |
 |
| I want more sequel announcement. |
 |
| at long last we can finally learn what anime entails in and of itself. |
 |
| let see one of my dream sequel get announced or not... 1: Classroom of elite S2 2: Noragami S3 3: Btooom S2 4: Maid sama S2/remake 5: Oran High school host club S2/remake 6: Prison school S2 7: Masamune kun 's revange S2 8: Boys over flowers (manga adaption) 9: kiss him not me S2 10; Ben to S2 I don't want no game no life sequel |
| Hoping for another monogatari sequel and 3gatsu 3rd season, and some official airing dates for the already announced shows. |

Erm. But Blue Exorcist has 2 seasons and Kaguya S3 allready got announced. I personally fdon't care about mainstream shounens butr would not mind Noragami S3. A movie or S2 of Bloom Into You wopuld be also perfect. |
 |
| I really hope the finally get more news and see some footage of Vampire in the Garden on Netflix stage. That's one of the anime I am most excited for in this year. Also excited for seeing more of Deemo. I hope some new cool projects get announced on the even besides trillion new sequels that will be surely shown. |

| If they’ll announce a harem anime adaptation please let it be the 100 girlfriends. |
 |

 |

 |
| ooo curious what will be in the Miraculous Ladybug special talk. |
| 眠れないのは君のせい |
| I'm not seeing much that makes me want to pay $29 much less nearly twice that, however I do want to take a look at some of the exhibition streams though. |
