The staff for Fuji TV and Yokō Tarō's KamiErabi GOD.app original television anime announced on Thursday that the anime will get a special livestream program on IGN's YouTube channel on October 1 from 9:00-11:30 p.m. EDT. The stream will include the first three English-subtitled episodes and a Q&A session with creator Yoko Taro, character designer Atsushi Ohkubo, and script writer JIN.

Viewers may submit questions in advance by messaging the anime's official Reddit account (u/KamiErabi_official), and they may also ask questions during the event in IGN's livestream chat or by using the #KamiErabi hashtag on Twitter.
