00:00These are the most relevant news or gossip about what happened during the month in the world of
00:04anime, Mamba Japan, or the otaku community. The Demon Slayer, Kimetsu no Yaiba franchise
00:10continues to make history. Its latest film, Infinity Castle, has officially become the
00:1510th highest-grossing film of all time in Japan, as confirmed on August 3rd through the project's
00:20official channels. Just 17 days after its premiere on July 18th, the film has grossed
00:2517.63 billion yen, approximately $119.26 million, and sold more than 12.5 million tickets,
00:34far surpassing Detective Conan, One-Eyed Flashback, the previous leader of the year.
00:38This achievement repeats the phenomenon of Moving Train, 2020, which also reached the top 10 in
00:43just 17 days. However, Infinity Castle surpasses that mark by nearly 2 billion yen, consolidating
00:50the saga's continued rise. Currently, Infinity Castle is also the 7th highest-grossing anime
00:55film in Japan, ranking below iconic works such as Howl's Moving Castle and Princess Mononoke.
01:01The story follows Tenjiro Kamadu, who, after overcoming Hashira training, faces the ultimate
01:06threat, the demon Muzan Kabutsuji. When Muzan attacks the Ubuyashiki Mansion, Tenjiro, Nozuko,
01:12the Hashira, and other demon hunters are dragged into Infinity Castle, the demon's final stronghold.
01:18There, the most intense battle of the saga begins. The Kyoto International Manga Anime Fair announced
01:23its artistic collaborations for the 2025 edition, which will be held on September 20th and 21st,
01:292025, in Kyoto. Under the theme Tadeoki no Kyoto, Favorite and Secret Kyoto, six illustrations fuse
01:36iconic characters from popular series with iconic and lesser-known locations in the city.
01:41Notable collaborations include Kaiju No. 8 at the Lake Biwakanao Museum, Rascal Does Not Dream of Santa
01:47Claus at Ahirano Shrine, and Lycoris Recoil at the Kyoto Takao Mammaji at Ryokan. This event combines a
01:53passion for anime with local cultural heritage, promising a unique experience for visitors and
01:58fans alike. Hoiaverse has confirmed that the PlayStation 4 version of Genshin Impact will
02:03no longer receive new updates as of April 8, 2026. This phase closure will begin on September 10,
02:092025, with the game being removed from the PlayStation Store, followed by the suspension of in-game
02:14purchases for PS4 on February 25, 2026. The main reason is that the console's technical
02:20limitations make it difficult to maintain the game. Users will be able to easily migrate their
02:25progress to PlayStation 5, which will continue to receive full support. Genshin Impact, released in
02:312020, is a highly popular open-world action role-playing game across multiple platforms,
02:36known for its anime-inspired art style and gacha gameplay system. The crowdfunding project,
02:41inspired by the melancholy of Uruay Susamiya, presented its third and final music video,
02:46titled Colorful Starting Line. The video, starring Makuru Asahaina, shows a Dream Idol concert featuring
02:52all the members of the SOS Brigade. The song features the voice of Aya Hirano, who reprises the role that
02:58made her famous, and is now available on digital platforms such as Spotify. With this release,
03:03the campaign that previously launched tracks such as Chasing Destiny comes to a close,
03:08leading fans with a project full of music, animation, and nostalgia. On Wednesday, August 14,
03:142025, LW Entertainment announced a collaboration with Cubic Pictures and its founder Justin Leach,
03:20known for Star Wars, Visions, and the anime series Eden and Leviathan. The goal is to develop an anime
03:26adaptation of the classic musical The Phantom of the Opera. Leach emphasized that this partnership seeks
03:31to bridge the gap between musical theater and Japanese animation, creating a timeless and emotional
03:36experience. Premiered in 1986 in London and in 1988 on Broadway, The Phantom of the Opera is one
03:43of the most award-winning musicals in history, based on the novel by Gaston Leroux, 1909-1910,
03:49which tells the story of Christine Dailly and the enigmatic phantom who lives beneath the Paris Opera
03:53house. The project adds to the legacy of Cubic Pictures, a company that recently premiered the
03:58anime Leviathan on Netflix on July 10, 2025, following its participation in Star Wars, Visions.
04:05Shuisha's digital platform Shonen Jump Plus is celebrating its 10th anniversary with a summer

04:16artists such as Tizen 5 and Asato Mizu. All chapters will be available in English via Manga Plus.

04:39The festival is part of a series of celebrations that also include the launch of the mobile game
04:44Jump Plus Jumble Rush in fall 2024, reinforcing Shonen Jump Plus's role as a leader in international
04:50digital manga. The official websites for the anime series Zatsutabi That's Journey and Touring
04:55After the Apocalypse have revealed two special illustrations to commemorate their upcoming
04:59premieres. Both works, originally published in Katakawa's Denjiki Mao magazine, revolve around
05:05traveling around Japan, albeit in very different contexts. Zatsutabi, which aired between April 7 and
05:11June 30, 2025, follows Chika Suzugomori, an aspiring Manga artist who embarks on an impromptu tour of the
05:18country. Touring After the Apocalypse will arrive in October 2025, showing Yuko and Eri exploring the
05:24ruins of a post-apocalyptic Japan on motorcycles. The crossover illustrations reflect this contrast,
05:30impromptu trips versus journeys through a desolate world, bringing the characters together
05:34in opposite scenarios but with the same adventurous spirit. Anaplex announced that its highly anticipated
