San Diego Comic-Con opened on Thursday with fewer big-name celebrity panels, but fans arrived in full costume and high spirits.
Richard Cao, 38, from San Diego, said he prepared for months to attend, losing 30 pounds to dress as bare-chested Inosuke Hashibira from the anime series 'Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba.'
"I lost about 30 pounds over six months, that's just the physical, I guess, investment I made," Cao said.
This year’s event at the San Diego Convention Center lacks the usual Hall H A-list panels from Marvel and DC Studios, but highlights include 'Star Wars' creator George Lucas making his Comic-Con debut, Disney’s 'Tron: Ares' and 'Predator: Badlands' panels, and a discussion for 'Project Hail Mary,' starring Ryan Gosling.
The world premiere of the 'King of the Hill' revival will also feature co-creators Mike Judge and Greg Daniels.
For the first time, Comic-Con will host a two-day music festival, Crunchyroll Anime FanFest, organized by Sony-owned anime streaming service Crunchyroll. The festival will feature anime music, including 'The One Piece 25th Anniversary Symphony Voyage.'
Crunchyroll has more than 13 million subscribers globally.
