Done in the style of an ancient Edo summer tradition, prepare for a night of morbid pop and chilling stories from Yunyu that chill the bone on a warm summer's night. The show features a mix of anime covers and originals from Yunyu and an all round audio-visual extravaganza.

SMASH! will also be hosting a mini Karaoke session as part of the program. Cosplaying is encouraged. Door prizes and a whole lot of fun awaits. Get in early. Very limited tickets. On sale for $10 now on www.yunyu.com.au
