Are puzzle & dragons cross and Saiki Kusuo full length animes?

I wonder if funi will be able to keep up with 5 saiki kusuo a week (how many episodes will it even be, 50?!_)

And now I can only wait for that one person to complain about how the translations are going to suck... because they will, and me being an armchair nihilist isn't going to fix anything.

Saiki Kusuo isn't a full length series.

My guess is that they'll only stream the full length episodes which combine all the shorts together.

Cheer Boys sounds amusing I know nothing about it but hey Japanese Cheerleading Anime so I'll pull the trigger on this one still waiting for someone to pick up Masou Gakuen HxH.

This is a horrible list of shows to drop on their viewing audience let alone to give any of them a broadcast dub is a waste of their resources and money. The slew of underwhelming shows this year just means that I'll be buying less anime until something of solid quality finally shows itself.

Oh Come on! Did they really have to take Cheer Danshi? Agh. With that and D. Grayman they took two of my most anticipated shows of the season. Can American companies with stupid region-locking policies stop taking exclusive licenses to the shows I want? Evil or Very Mad

Damn, they got both Saiki Kusuo and Cheer Boys. Cheer Boys seemed like something CR would definitely get too... I hope CR gets Days at least.

And here I was foolishly thinking that CR would get another perfect season, but nope. Shitimation had to come and take Cheer Boys!! Oh well I guess. Just watch it elsewhere I suppose.

I can see why you guys might be mad but I'm actually happy they got Saiki Kusuo no Psi Nan since they dub and release almost everything they license.

Besides Arslan, (and I would say D-gray man but they only have 50 of the 100 some odd episodes on the site) these shows are terrible. And crunchy roll got all the good ones again. Come on what is this lol.

Oh my gosh, they licensed Puzzle & Dragons X!? Alright!! Very Happy

I was thinking that the Japanese licensor wouldn't allow any international streaming of the Japanese version, and that the only international release the anime could get was a dub and air on TV (along with releasing the game internationally). The reason why I was thinking that was because most (if not all) toyetic anime don't get streamed internationally if there are no plans to release the toys, video games, etc. internationally as well.

Puzzle & Dragons X is most likely going to be a full length anime. It might run for 48-52 episodes.

I didn't expect that Funimation would pick up Puzzle & Dragons X; a nice surprise in my case. It's looking to be a fun show to watch, particularly since I'm currently playing Puzzle & Dragons Z... Smile
