The Eminence in Shadow
Season 2

Please welcome the Author, Daisuke Aizawa, the Manga Artist, Anri Sakano, the Anime Director, Kazuya Nakanishi, the Anime Producer, Kazufumi Kikushima and Lara Schmidt, the German Voice Actress of Delta, to ANImagic 2024!

A boy who dreamed of becoming The Eminence in Shadow meets an untimely death and is reborn in another world as Cid Kagenou.
In his new world, Cid has decided to enjoy his Eminence in Shadow shtick, playing the role of Shadow–he who lurks in the shadows in order to hunt the shadows–and with the girls who faithfully play along, he builds Shadow Garden, an organization that fights against a dark cult.
All of this is the product of his fantasies…or so he thought. But the evil Cult of Diablos does, in fact, exist, and though Cid doesn’t know it, Shadow Garden carries on the fight against this darkness of the world.
The story now takes us to the Lawless City, with its three rulers: The Blood Queen, the Spirit Fox, and the Tyrant. It’s survival of the fittest in this metropolis overrun with ne’er-do-wells.
Cid is dragged here by his sister Claire, who has come to defeat the Blood Queen of the vampires, and his heart thrills at this unique opportunity to show off his Eminence in Shadow moves, but….
A plot centering around the Blood Queen is set in motion, and the three rulers of Lawless City come together in battle. Claire gets caught up in the fray, and Shadow Garden has its own business in Lawless City. Amid the extreme chaos, Cid decides to work behind the scenes as Shadow.
The Red Moon is rising. The hour of awakening is near!

ISHURA

The “Demon King” is dead— The one who terrorized every horizon, the enemy of the world, has been defeated by someone. However, as for the Hero who achieved this, their name and actual existence still remain unknown. And so, now that the era of fear has passed, only the “power”, a potential threat to the world has remained. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to meet them: those akin to demons and devils, the “shuras”— The “shuras”, the pinnacle of all “power” dive in, risking their dignity, pride and lives on the line, all for that one wish. A never-before-seen battle, unable to be stopped by anyone. The battle to determine the only one who will remain, the “Hero”, now begins.

Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-
Season 3

A year has passed since the liberation of “The Sanctuary”, where Subaru Natsuki defeated Elsa and fulfilled his contract with Beatrice in the battle against the Great Rabbits.
Emilia camp was united as they faced the royal election, and Subaru Natsuki was living a fulfilling life, but the peace and quiet came to an end with a single letter delivered by a messenger.
The letter was from Anastasia, one of the candidates for the royal selection, to invite Emilia to the Watergate City of Priestella, one of the five largest cities in Lugunica.
Accepting the invitation, Subaru and his party set off for Priestella, where a variety of reunions awaited them.
One unexpected, one unintended, and one to come.
The stirrings of malice writhing beneath the surface of the water and an unprecedented crisis loom over them.
Once again, the boy faces a cruel fate.
