Singapore, 28 November 2025 — Today marks the first day of AFA Singapore 2025, and Crunchyroll is kicking things off with a massive world-first anime screening marathon happening this very afternoon. If you’re heading to Suntec City or already inside the halls, this is the premiere event you don’t want to miss.
Crunchyroll has secured exclusive global streaming rights to Release That Witch, and to celebrate, Singapore fans will be the first in the world to watch Episode 1 — weeks before its official streaming debut. This world-exclusive screening is joined by Fire Force Season 3 Cour 2 (including a never-before-seen Episode 2!) and the heartwarming fantasy An Adventurer’s Daily Grind at Age 29.
For fans attending AFA today, this is your once-in-a-lifetime chance to watch three major anime premieres before the rest of the world.
