AniManGaki 2025 is just around the corner! One thing we always look forward to at AniManGaki are their concerts, featuring a variety of artists from around the world. This year is no exception, as three different musical acts will take the stage with their stunning performances each day at 7.30PM.
Here’s what you need to know about each featured artist:
Friday (22 August) – ChouCho
ChouCho is a celebrated anisong artist and singer who first rose to fame through her “Utattemita” covers on Niconico. She made her major debut with “Kawaru Mirai”, the opening theme song for Kamisama no Memo-chou.
ChouCho is best known for performing the theme songs to anime series like Hyouka, Girls und Panzer, and Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya. She has also written music for Wandering Witch and Ultraman Trigger.
Saturday (23 August) – BRADIO
The electrifying Japanese funk rock band BRADIO will make an appearance at AniManGaki 2025. BRADIO (short for Break the Rule And Do Image On) are known for their vibrant sound, which blends funk, rock, and pop into an irresistible mix.
BRADIO skyrocketed to international recognition with their hit single Flyers, the opening theme for the anime Death Parade. Since then, they’ve contributed tracks to other anime titles including Peeping Life, Yu-Gi-Oh! Go Rush!!, and Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon.
Sunday (24 August) – Aya Hirano
The legendary Japanese voice actress and singer Aya Hirano will close off the event with an exclusive solo concert. Aya launched her music career in 2006 with Bōken Desho Desho?, the iconic theme song to the anime series The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, where she also performed as its lead character Haruhi Suzumiya.
In 2024, Aya made a highly anticipated return to music with her first new single in 11 years and embarked on a national tour, reconnecting with fans old and new.
AniManGaki 2025 will be held at the Mines International Exhibition & Convention Centre (MIECC), Malaysia, from 22 – 24 August, 2025. Tickets are available now at https://www.animangaki.com/store/
