This booth offers numerous activities tailored to fans of the platform.
Notable webtoon artists attending include uru-chan from “unOrdinary” and Brandon Chen of “Just a Goblin” and “Overtime Elite”. The WEBTOON panel will delve deeply into the intersection of webtoons and anime, exploring this topic in depth. Additionally, it will discuss power systems in anime and action, the adaptation of Korean comics into anime and its potential future, and more. Panel discussions include fight choreography in “The Art of Battle” (Thursday, July 3, 1:30 pm, Room 402AB), power systems in “The Art of Leveling Up” (Friday, July 4, 5:15 pm, Room 411), the role of sports in popular culture (Saturday), and future trends in anime and webcomics (Sunday).
For four days straight, Webtoon Entertainment will share valuable insights from industry professionals and creators through various informative panels. The highly anticipated presence of the creator of “Tower of God” promises a deeper understanding of the series’ creation, future developments, and what fans can anticipate in the coming seasons. It’s worth noting that the surge in webtoon adaptations into anime might be partially due to the phenomenal success of “Solo Leveling,” with “Tower of God,” “God of Highschool,” and “Noblesse” being among the pioneers that paved the way for this trend to flourish.
