The kit will come with a collectible show poster featuring the 20th anniversary of Naruto and more.

There might also be announcements regarding the anime that will be streaming on Crunchyroll’s platform at Mumbai Comic Con. New information regarding the localization of content, meaning more Hindi Dubs could be on the way.

Mumbai Comic Con is taking place on Feb 11-12, 2023 at the JIO World Center in Bandra-Kurla Complex.

In India, Crunchyroll offers nearly 5,500 episodes of anime and 1,000 hours of dubbed content, with a goal of adding more content (subs and dubs) in the months to come.

Crunchyroll had slashed the subscription prices of their services in India in July. The price of a Crunchyroll Premium membership in India is ₹79/month for its Fan subscription tier and ₹99/month for its Mega Fan tier subscription.

In an interview to Animehunch, Crunchyroll’s COO Brady McCollum had previously said that the streaming site was looking to provide more value to its users.
