Toho International, the U.S. subsidiary of Japan’s Toho Co., Ltd., will return to Anime Expo 2026 in Los Angeles this July with an immersive booth and a slate of franchise panels headlined by “My Hero Academia” and “Jujutsu Kaisen.”
The Toho animation booth will mark the 10-year anniversary of “My Hero Academia” and the five-year anniversary of “Jujutsu Kaisen,” alongside dedicated activations for “Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End,” “The Apothecary Diaries,” and “Though I Am an Inept Villainess.”
Four franchise panels are scheduled across the July 3–5 weekend. A “The Apothecary Diaries” panel hosted by Crunchyroll and NTV opens the programming on Friday, July 3. Saturday brings a “Though I Am an Inept Villainess” panel featuring Japanese voice actors Hishikawa Hana and Furukawa Makoto, followed by a “My Hero Academia” panel with Yamashita Daiki (Japanese voice of Deku) and Uchiyama Koki (Japanese voice of Shigaraki). The “Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End” panel on Saturday evening will be attended by director Kitagawa Tomoya, supporting director Saito Keiichiro, character designer Kojima Keisuke, and animation producer Fukushi Yuichiro. The weekend closes Sunday with a “Jujutsu Kaisen” panel featuring Enoki Junya and English voice actor Adam McArthur, both of whom play Yuji Itadori.
The booth will also offer convention-exclusive merchandise and limited-edition collectibles, along with complimentary badge clip-ons at the entrance covering series including “Spy x Family” and “Kaiju No. 8.” Giveaway blind bags – mini clip-on shoppers containing an eco-bag with chibi artwork from one of four series – will be distributed throughout the weekend, limited to one per guest. Separate social media giveaways of exclusive merchandise and signed shikishi boards are open to U.S. residents 18 and over, including those not attending the convention.
Anime Expo 2026 runs July 3–6 at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
