Anime Frontier is produced by LeftField Media, the company behind Anime NYC, and presented by Crunchyroll. Since launching in Fort Worth it has become the year-end anime event in North Texas. Expect industry-heavy programming: Japanese publisher and studio presence, premieres and announcements, a large exhibit hall and artist alley, and plenty of cosplay in downtown Fort Worth.
