Every year there are dozens of anime conventions that take place around the world. Some of them are long established and can attract hundreds of thousands of fans. Anime Boston was established by the New England Anime Society in 2003 and returns for its latest edition from March 29- March 31 2024. The event attracted 29,849 fans in 2022.

Anime streaming site Hi-Dive, who are owned by AMC Networks, have revealed their program for the convention. They will showcase current top series as well as upcoming titles. Their program will include both panels and screenings including premieres of both Spring Simulcast shows and brand new English dubs.

This will be followed by the Working In The Japanese Animation Industry panel with special guests Pony Canyon producer Yuki Watanabe and voice actor Hirose Yuya. Throughout the day, fans can choose between two screenings featuring the World Premiere of the English dub of The Vexations of a Shut-in Vampire Princess and the US premiere of Jellyfish Can’t Swim in the Night, the new series from Doga Kobo, the studio behind [Oshi No Ko].
