2025’s Anime Expo is just around the corner, and fans are buzzing with anticipation about the upcoming announcements, updates, and news that the event will bring. From the return of popular manga series to the debut of new works that might dominate the scene, July looks set to be a fantastic month for anime enthusiasts worldwide, as it promises some of the year’s most significant announcements from the world of anime.

Since its launch in 1991, Anime Expo (AX) has grown into North America’s most significant event honoring Japanese pop culture. Held annually in Los Angeles, AX brings together enthusiasts, stars, and professionals from all corners of the world for an extraordinary gathering. Highlights include anime screenings, concerts, cosplay contests, gaming tournaments, and fashion exhibitions. Each year, attendees rejoice in the medium’s celebration, with major announcements and news headlines being unveiled – including groundbreaking updates such as Solo Leveling and Chainsman Man’s anime adaptations.

1) Bleach’s Final Cour Will Get An Exclusive Look

The highly anticipated final season of “Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War” is approaching, with fans eagerly anticipating the mind-blowing content it promises to deliver. What makes this even more exciting is the increased original input from Tite Kubo compared to previous seasons, and the extended time between seasons ensuring a higher production quality. At this year’s Anime Expo, we might get a sneak peek at the new season, potentially including a fresh trailer, visual key, and release date. With the legendary anime reaching the climax of its war arc, the final season is not to be missed by any fan!

2) Demon Slayer’s First Infinity Castle Movie Will Get An Update

As a passionate fan, I eagerly anticipate the upcoming movie installment of Demon Slayer, the anime franchise that broke numerous records with its first film. On June 28, 2025, we might uncover fresh details about this highly-anticipated production. This announcement marks a significant milestone for the series as it approaches the end of its historic run. The theatrical release scheduled for fall is an event I’m eagerly awaiting with bated breath, and I can hardly wait to celebrate the 6th anniversary of this phenomenal anime series in grand style.

At Anime Expo, there’s a strong chance fans will get their first glimpse into the third season of “Jujutsu Kaisen”. The actors behind Itadori Yuji and Yuta Okkotsu are confirmed to appear and host a panel on July 6th, and interestingly, these two characters are set to be the main focus in the opening act of the Culling Games. With a bustling year for the franchise, including the re-release of the Hidden Inventory and “Jujutsu Kaisen” 0 movie in cinemas, it won’t be long until the much-anticipated return of this popular battle shonen series graces our TV screens once more.

4) My Hero Academia‘s Final Season Will Share A New Look

Looking ahead to October 2025 when the final season of “My Hero Academia” premieres, fans can expect a major update on the climactic final war on July 5, 2025. Intriguingly, creator Kohei Horikoshi will release a special message in conjunction with this update, especially for the occasion given that it is the last season. With Season 8 fast approaching, July brings us one step closer to the thrilling conclusion of this blockbuster superhero series.

5) Science SARU Will Share Progress On The Ghost in the Shell Project

On July 3rd, the animation studio renowned for productions like Dandadan and Devilman Crybaby will unveil developments and insights into their upcoming anime adaptation of Masamune Shirow’s legendary sci-fi manga. This unexpected announcement has been met with excitement as fans anticipate the studio’s interpretation may be closest to the original manga. So far, a character visual for the famous protagonist, Motoko Kusanagi, is all that’s been revealed about the project. However, this panel will provide more details, as further updates are imminent.
