Celebrating Two Decades of Anime Magic

First launched in 2005, MBS Anime Fes has become a hallmark event where anime, voice acting, and music converge. Memorable performances from series such as Fullmetal Alchemist, Haikyuu!!, Macross Frontier, and Gintama have captivated audiences in past festivals, with a thrilling blend of iconic anime scenes, live dubbing, and theme song performances.

Returning after seven years with a new venue and a two-day format, the 2025 MBS Anime Fes will not offer online streaming or Blu-ray releases, enhancing the event's reputation as a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience for attendees.
