About Crunchyroll Presents: The Anime Effect Special Appearance

This week, Crunchyroll Presents: The Anime Effect is welcoming one of its biggest guests ever! LiSA, the J-Pop global sensation behind the iconic theme songs of some of the biggest anime, joins podcast hosts Nicholas Friedman and LeAlec Murray for a special episode. Airing ahead of her highly anticipated one-day-only San Diego Comic-Con headlining performance on July 26, LiSA discusses her first concert in North America in nearly a decade and her upcoming film LiVE is SMiLE ALWAYS -LANDER-, coming to theaters in North America on August 17.

In this episode, LiSA and the hosts break down her extensive history with anime, how she got into writing theme songs and how she brings them to life, her personal favorite anime movie and song, and much more.

LiSA, who made her solo debut in the spring of 2011 with the mini-album “Letter to U,” has gained both domestic and international prominence through a string of hit anime theme songs. Fan-favorite themes hail from such series as Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba (“homura” from Mugen Train and “Gurenge” from the anime series); My Hero Academia (“Datte Atashino Hero”), Sword Art Online (“Crossing Field”), and The Irregular at Magic High School (“Rising Hope”). 

Launched on February 16, the inaugural episode of The Anime Effect podcast reached the #1 slot in the Manga and Animation Category on Apple Podcasts in the U.S., Mexico, Ireland, and Belgium and remains trending in 39 countries. 

Crunchyroll Presents: The Anime Effect is available worldwide in English on all major podcast platforms. New audio episodes launch every Friday on YouTube and Crunchyroll!
