Here’s a List of Anime & Manga Affected by COVID-19 Coronavirus Pandemic

Coronavirus pandemic has paralyzed the industry by taking down all our significant sources of entertainment.

From major public events to television anime and even manga updates, we have seen all of them go down in the past couple of weeks in front of our eyes.

Some big titles such as Pokemon, Digimon, Attack on Titans, Food Wars!, and One Piece were caught up in this as well. We get the fact that whatever dope show we watch must come to an end one day or another, but this pandemic brought that time sooner than expected.
