If panels is not your forte, then you’ll love to hear about Virtual Crunchyroll Expo‘s New Crunchy City Anime Arts District, which can be viewed Here, which focuses on the artists that would have been at the convention.. if this pandemic hadn’t happened. You can access links to their personal shop and still find yourself something awesome to make up for not being able to be there in person. Also, every purchase you make at New Crunchy City Anime Arts District goes to supporting awesome artists, who could really use it right now.
