Anime NYC 2026: Macross Delta Screening, 'Go Forward.' and Detective Conan 27th Film English Dub Premieres
Anime NYC is preparing to host major anime productions at its event this August. The convention's program includes panels focused on Big West and Macross, a screening of Macross Delta the Movie: Passionate Walkūre, and also English dub premieres for 'Go Forward.' and Detective Conan's 27th theatrical film. The event, held at Javits Center in New York, is poised to draw strong interest from anime fans in North America.
The Macross series has been considered one of the cornerstones of the mecha genre since its first production in 1982. Largely bearing the signature of mecha anime legend Shōji Kawamori, the franchise is known for stories that interweave war and music. Macross Delta, released in 2016, and its 2018 theatrical film Passionate Walkūre are notable works centering on the series' music group Walkūre. The screening at Anime NYC offers an unmissable opportunity for fans wishing to experience this film on the big screen.
The 27th film of Detective Conan, created by Gosho Aoyama, was released in Japan in 2024 and continued the series' tradition of mystery adventure. The fact that the film's English dub premiere will take place at Anime NYC is an important step in officially bringing the production to Western audiences in English. Thus, excited viewers around the world will have the chance to experience the English version of the film for the first time at this event.
'Go Forward.', while details are still limited, is among Anime NYC's English dub premieres. The fact that the production will be shown for the first time in the West at this event can be seen as a sign of a new licensing agreement. As Anime NYC's full program is announced, panel times, guest speakers, and potential surprise announcements will also become clear; fans are already keeping an eye on announcements about this event.
