Crunchyroll, the ultimate home for anime worldwide, launched its first ad campaign in India, `Wish Your World Was Anime`, which masterfully blends the immersive world of anime with real life, featuring anime superfans Rashmika Mandanna and Tiger Shroff. In the two ad films, the protagonists wish for dream scenarios in their real lives, such as embarking on vivid adventures and turning challenges into triumphant moments, much like those in the captivating anime worlds they enjoy.

The dynamic ads premiered during the IPL and will air digitally on JioCinema during TATA IPL matches. Crunchyroll has also planned a comprehensive marketing campaign encompassing surround sound promotions through OOH, digital advertising, and social media outreach.

Anime, with its unique storytelling style, action, and visual artistry, offers a realm unlike any other, where individuals immerse in narratives that inspire, provoke thought, and evoke emotion. With `Wish Your World Was Anime,` Crunchyroll aims to tap into the universal desire shared by anime enthusiasts everywhere - to infuse their everyday lives with the vibrancy, courage, and adventure reminiscent of their favorite anime characters and shows.

The ad films have been uniquely crafted using a blend of original Japanese animation with live action. The creative agency behind the campaign is Tilt Brand Solutions, while the anime segments were created by renowned anime studios in Japan, ensuring the authenticity of the craft and reinforcing Crunchyroll`s dedication to sharing Japanese anime with the world. Drive Inc. created the anime for the ad film with Rashmika, while the anime in Tiger`s ad film was created by ARECT, Inc. The films were overseen creatively by Crunchyroll`s Creative Services Team. The background music in the ad film with Tiger is exclusive, produced by Donn Bhatt, and features rapper Jagsifat. The ad film with Rashmika has the song `Billo` By Excise Dept.
