ROLLING INTO SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON, CRUNCHYROLL EVOLVES ITS BRAND, CELEBRATING THE ENERGY, PASSION, AND JOY OF FANDOM

AS ANIME GROWTH CONTINUES Anime Fans to get First Peek at Crunchyroll’s New Look and Feel at SDCC Along with Crunchyroll Concert Series Featuring LiSA and the One Piece25th Anniversary: Symphonic Voyage Presented in Collaboration with Toei Animation

Watch the Brand Evolution video below

Sydney, Australia (July 19, 2024) – Crunchyroll, the ultimate brand for all things anime, is unveiling a new brand identity today. The new look, feel, and sound will reflect the joy that anime brings to fans, tapping into an ethos of fun and celebration.

Crunchyroll continues to bring anime to fans in all the ways they want it across streaming, theatrical, events, games, music, news, consumer products, collectibles, and more. Central to Crunchyroll’s growth has been a focus on connecting fans and creators in celebration of their shared passions.

Starting on July 26 with San Diego Comic-Con, the updated and recharged Crunchyroll brand identity will be rolled out across all fan touchpoints of the organization over the next year.

The updated brand identity includes a modernized logo with a balanced eye symbol and revamped wordmark; a new font set called Crunchyroll Atyp that blends classic and modern elements for improved readability; and a vibrant color system featuring orange, black, white, and taupe to reflect anime’s dynamic nature. The new glyph system boasts over 139 anime and manga-inspired characters, adding depth and personality. A new seven-second audio-visual mnemonic captures the immersive Crunchyroll experience with anime-inspired sound design and playful elements. Collaboration and co-creation with Japanese artists on new textures and patterns further enhance the brand’s authenticity and immersive storytelling.

Fans will first experience the new Crunchyroll look and feel at San Diego Comic-Con, where the brand evolution will be emblazoned across the Rady Shell concert venue in celebration of the Crunchyroll Concert Series. Giving fans even more ways to express and celebrate their love for anime and Japanese pop culture, the two-day event will feature J-Pop sensation LiSA and hyperpop genius Alice Longyu Gao, as well as the One Piece 25th Anniversary: Symphonic Voyage concert in collaboration with Toei Animation, celebrating the iconic series’ 25th anniversary.

Additionally, the new brand identity will also be showcased inside and outside the San Diego Convention Center. There, fans will get a chance to showcase their passion for anime by picking up a limited and fan-forward streetwear collection inspired by the new and refreshed Crunchyroll – designed by 2024 CFDA Fashion Fund finalist Sebastian Ami!

“As the number of ‘anime-curious’ people approaches the one billion mark, and anime continues to command a prominent place in popular culture, we wanted to evolve the Crunchyroll brand to appeal to a growing diversity of global fans without losing the core essence of what fans have loved about Crunchyroll along the way,” said Rahul Purini, President of Crunchyroll. “We believe this new brand evolution will encourage and welcome many anime fans to deepen their love for years to come.”

“A lot of attention to detail and meaning was embedded into all the unique elements of our updated look and feel. Whether it be the vibrancy of our new Crunchyroll orange or the audio mark inspired by anime’s unique sounds,” said Gita Rebbapragada, Chief Operating Officer of Crunchyroll, who also oversees marketing. “Our teams live and breathe anime, and we wanted to pour that passion into designing a brand that is purposely fit for legions of fans around the world – giving them space to deepen their love and further their emotional connection.”

Development of the new brand identity package was led by Crunchyroll’s Markus Gerdemann (Senior Vice President, Marketing) and Norman Rabinovich (Vice President, Creative Services).

Crunchyroll offers fans the ultimate anime experience, pairing the world’s largest dedicated anime streaming library of 50,000 episodes and more than 25,000 hours of anime series, music, and films with experiences across events, theatrical, gaming, ecommerce, and so much more.

Over the last year, anime – and thus Crunchyroll – has surpassed numerous milestones, achieved increased success and launched new fan-forward initiatives.

VAMPIRE THERAPIST LAUNCHES TODAY! 

Your tutor is a 3000-year-old vampire: take a seat on his couch and just relax… be yourself

Berlin, Germany — July 18, 2024 | What do the undead have to worry about? How do they deal with the challenges of immortality? And what would a 3,000-year-old vampire do if not live atop a gothic nightclub in Europe? Well, these questions and many more are about to be answered in Vampire Therapist!

Created by and starring Cyrus Nemati (Dionysus in Hades), he is joined by voice actors Matt Mercer (Critical Role), Sarah Grayson (Hades 2), Francesca Meaux (Hades) and newcomer Kylie Clark, to bring these eccentric vampires to life. 

Launching today on Steam and GoG, players will step into the boots of Sam, a cowboy from the Old West who is looking to change his murderous ways and connect with what’s left of his soul. Looking for answers in his immortality, Sam travels to Europe and is taken under the (bat)wing of reformed assassin, warrior and undead heartthrob Andromachos.

Together, they help blood-sucking immortals realise that just because they’re dead, it doesn’t mean they can’t live. All of the techniques discussed and used in Vampire Therapist have been created in consultation with licensed therapists to give the game an authentic message.

Inspired by the likes of What We Do in the Shadows and Horrible Histories, Vampire Therapist merges this comedic style with deep, introspective subject matters and heartfelt characters and real-life historical personalities.  

Lovingly crafted by solo developer Cyrus Nemati, Vampire Therapist promises to take players on a unique journey through the psychology of vampirism that will leave them changed forever!
