Anycolor canceled the first-ever live Nijisanji concert in North America. Anime Expo 2024, originally going to hold the NIJISANJI EN SUMMER JAM on July 6, 2024 and a live concert, “Welcome to Wonder Wander World,” on July 7, 2024, has announced that both of these live events will no longer be happening.
The press release, coming from the official Anime Expo site, did not clarify exactly why the Nijisanji live concert was canceled. This is also not the first time Nijisanji recently pulled out of a convention event. Nijisanji previously canceled an event at OffKai Expo in May 2024. Vtubers Millie Parfait, Enna Aloutte, and Reimu Endou were supposed to attend. The abruptness of this cancellation seems to be the main sticking point, with many people taking their laments to social media.
Nijisanji announcing that this first-ever live concert has been cancelded comes on the heels of a number of issues around Nijisanji’s English Branch’s decline and after the sudden departure of one of their talents, Selen Tatsuki.
While the Live concerts will no longer be happening, the NIJISANJI EN SUMMER JAM will be live streamed for free on the official Nijisanji Youtube Channel and according to Anime Expo, full refunds for the tickets will be offered and processed. In addition, Nijisanji has stated that they are working on special perks and offerings for individuals who purchased the tickets as an apology.
Anime Expo will be held from July 4-7, 2024 in Los Angeles, California.
