Crunchyroll to have Ultimate Anime Fitness Challenge at San Diego Comic-Con 2023

Crunchyroll is looking to make people work their muscles at San Diego Comic-Con this month.

The anime streaming service is teaming up with Hardcore Fitness for the Ultimate Anime Fitness Challenge, which finds anime fans working out like their favorite characters with the aid of trainer Charles Thorp. All participants will gain a free Crunchyroll water bottle and Crunchyroll gym towel.

Workout sessions will take place on Friday, July 21 and Saturday, July 22 9 a.m. and 10 a.m. at Hardcore Fitness Downtown San Diego, which is located on 1014 Fifth Ave STE 120 in San Diego. A limited number of slots are still open for both days. Register for the 18+ event here.

Aside from the fitness challenge, Crunchyroll will also take part in a couple panels. Their full schedule can be seen below.

CRUNCHYROLL’S ULTIMATE ANIME FITNESS CHALLENGE

Friday, July 21 and Saturday, July 22 at 9:00 AM and 10:00 AM

Hardcore Fitness - 1014 Fifth Ave STE 120, San Diego, CA 92101

Ready to learn to workout like your favorite anime characters? Crunchyroll will pump the iron (again, a light workout…) and the jams because no workout is complete without a killer playlist. When the music stops, attendees can take back some electrolytes and wipe off that thick post-workout sweat (a light workout, we promise!) with a free Crunchyroll Water Bottle and Crunchyroll Gym Towel—spoiler warning: they’re a very cool orange! Oh, and it’s not a workout without a complimentary smoothie—also orange.

Register at CrunchyrollAnimeFitness.rsvpify.com; space is limited.
