From July 3 to July 6, Anime Expo 2025 turned the Los Angeles Convention Center into a hub not just for anime, manga, and so on, but for cutting-edge gaming culture as well. With over 100,000 attendees drawn to to this sprawling event, this year’s event spotlighted the growing fusion between Japanese pop media and interactive entertainment.
Game developers and publishers like Spike Chunsoft, Bandai Namco, and CD Projekt Red unveiled trailers, hosted panels, and teased new titles—including the surprise announcement of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2.
With so much hustle and bustle at Anime Expo, it’s entirely possible that one video couldn’t contain the entire experience. That doesn’t mean attendees might not attempt it. And one arguably came close to success, except it was with several videos across each day and different focus areas.
YouTuber Lunchbox5930 compiled a playlist of nine videos, from nine minutes to forty minutes each, adding up to over three hours of Anime Expo goodness. Want to know the day 0 experience, or maybe the Day 4 experience, or maybe the expo hall walkthrough (whether larger or smaller exhibitors) or something else? Odds are, you’re covered.
To pick your path, check out the playlist link or start with the YouTube video link that begins with Day 0 and Anime Expo 2025 packing and planning. (If you want to focus on gaming, check out the Day 1 – Bushiroad Booths, Artist Alley, and Cygames, Day 2 Part 1 – Main Exhibitor Hall Booths, and Day 2 Part 3 – Entertainment Hall and Panels videos!)
