All the upcoming anime titles Crunchyroll showed off at SDCC 2022

Crunchyroll’s Tim Lyu and Lauren Moore came to the company’s industry panel at San Diego Comic-Con ready to present the latest news on the streaming service’s upcoming anime programming, from Fall 2022 into next year. But the question on nearly every attendee’s mind was easy enough to guess: What is the premiere date for Chainsaw Man?

Unfortunately, Crunchyroll had nothing to share on the highly anticipated adaptation of Tatsuki Fujimoto’s ultra-violent horror action manga from studio MAPPA, which is slated to premiere sometime later this year. Instead, the panel focused primarily on titles which had already been announced during Crunchyroll’s Anime Expo panel earlier this month, showing off trailers for anime like the second season of Saint Seiya, Knights of Zodiac, Tomo-chan is a girl!, Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Season 2, plus more
