Hatsune Miku, the virtual turquoise-pigtail singer from Japan, will be performing in concert as part of Miku Expo which will travel through Canada, the United States and Mexico in 2016.
Miku, a sixteen year-old computer-generated vocal synthesizer created by Crypton Future Media, has generated a massive following not only in her native Japan, but around the world. While she is not “human”, a creative graphical setup allows Miku to be projected in a 3D environment to sing and interact with the crowd wherever she goes. Miku has stood on stage with Lady Gaga and Pharrell Williams and even guest-starred on television with David Letterman!

The long awaited Blue Exorcist The Movie is hitting select theatres in the United States this August. For one Saturday only, catch Rin and Yukio Okumura as they defend their school and the world from Satan’s forces on the big screen. The movie will be dubbed in English.
Every eleven years, True Cross Academy celebrates a festival with the town that encompasses the school. While everyone is setting up for the carnival, the barriers protecting the town and school are being repaired at the same time. A ghost train seizes the opportunity to cause havoc and in turn, brothers Rin and Yukio Okumura are ordered to investigate, but find a demon posing as a young boy. Joining the Okumura twins is Cheng-Long Liu, an exorcist from Taiwan, but the mission begins to change for those involved.
Blue Exorcist The Movie was originally released on December 28th, 2012 in Japan.
