Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Animelo Summer Live essentially created the modern anime song concert format; by 2012 it had become the definitive annual gathering where voice actors transitioned from behind-the-mic performers to full-blown idols commanding arena crowds.
This 2012 edition marked the first time the event spanned two full days, and the 'INFINITY' theme reflected its ambition to expand beyond traditional anisong into broader pop crossover territory.
