GKIDS is one of the biggest licensors and distributors of anime (both anime series and anime films) in the world right now. Especially here in NA region. Meanwhile, New York Comic-Con (NYCC) is one of the biggest comic book conventions in the world right now. Attracting legions of fans to the titular New York City for four days of comic book celebrations where you can get exclusive merch from just about every comic book fandom possible.
So what do these two have in common? Normally, not much. However, this time is different.
GKIDS is proud to announce their full list of panels at the upcoming NYCC 2025. A grand total of two of them. Both covering a pair of anime series they’re distributing, and hoping to drum up as much mainstream attention for them as possible. Here’s the full list of them below:
What’s Next for Jujutsu Kaisen

Celebrating all aspects of the globally acclaimed anime, Jujutsu Kaisen, join the voice cast of the acclaimed series as they dive in and discuss their roles in the JJK universe. NYCC fans will be some of the first to experience the next phase of JJK!
GKIDS Presents: ALL YOU NEED IS KILL North American Premiere

Following an alien plant invasion, Rita is caught in the destruction—and killed. But then she wakes up again. And again.

Together, they fight to break free from the loop and find meaning in the chaos around them.
GKIDS Premiering Jujutsu Kaisen and ALL YOU NEED IS KILL at NYCC 2025
Honestly, this is quite exciting for all you fans of Jujutsu Kaisen out there, as well as for all fans of…ALL YOU NEED IS KILL?! Wow, that was not an anime I ever expected to see much NA attention. All in spite of the success of the live-action adaptation of it to boot. You know, that Edge of Tomorrow film starring Tom Cruise? Yeah, that’s basically the NA localization of it. Not a particularly faithful adaptation, but it was entertaining enough. Hopefully, this might mean that some of you will be eager for that particular GKIDS panel.
