Anime Expo Minute #12 My Deer Friend Nokotan & Bandai Namco Summer Showcase

 



This one. THIS ONE LOOKS INSANE. My Deer Friend Nokotan seemingly doesn't have a presence at AX this year. It however is coming out worldwide July 7th. You'll be able to watch this new series about high school girls...where one might be a deer, via Crunchyroll, Prime Video, ADN, Anime Onegai and more.

I hope there's cosplay or some sort of marketing scheme for this show like a deer crossing at the crosswalks at the convention center.

The Bandai Namco Summer Showcase is coming to AX though with massive floor plans. Other gaming companies might have abandoned us, but Bandai is there.

"Bandai Namco’s show floor activities invite fans to come visit themed booths that will transport them into their favorite anime universes. Spanning across several booths, Bandai Namco Entertainment America Inc. will be in booths #2300 and #2600 with photo-ops, collectibles, and game demos that will let Anime Expo attendees be among the first to experience hands-on play with DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO, SWORD ART ONLINE FRACTURED DAYDREAM; the GUNDAM BREAKER 4 game demo will be at booth #2406.

Bandai Namco Summer Showcase” takes place from 5:30 to 6:50 pm PDT on July 5 in Petree Hall. Like year’s past, the panel-style presentation brings together top anime game makers from Japan to deliver a string of game news and reveals. The showcase promises to unveil exciting news and updates for DRAGON BALL, GUNDAM, SWORD ART ONLINE, and more, with surprises in store. "
