About the fall lineup, I feel like CR's fall lineup is dry and lacking because they lost some big anime names like Demon Slayer season 2, Komi-San, Blue Period and even Lupin III part 6 (to Funimation, Netflix and Hidive). And CR has only 5 TBA boxes. I'm somehow underwhelmed.

So, dub-wise, Eighty-Six is a lock, Platinum End might be likely (or Takt), and then it's between World's Finest Assassin and Faraway Paladin for their Isekai dub (or both). Maybe one or two surprises.

They've still got Eigthy-Six, and Platinum End and Muv-Luv have some hype to them even if the former was controversial and people are really concerned about the quality of the latter.

Yeah Crunchys line up isn't really looking great. I wonder if the funimation merger just caused them to not try as hard? Or maybe Netflix flexing it's muscles is having an impact.

No offence but you say this every time CR announces their lineup. We get it, CR's seasonal lineups suck.

The company will also stream the Crunchyroll Original series High Guardian Spice.


Burner account time! I'm close to people who worked on this. High Guardian Spice was a mess when it was made.... low morale due to backlash from the trailer (which was all Crunchyroll's doing btw), a tight budget (let's say.... a similar budget of an anime), crunch (yes, crunch at crunchyroll lol) and mega disrespect towards its creator Raye Rodriguez.

"Why does Crunchyroll care about High Guardian Spice now?"..... Well let's just say Raye spoke with his lawyer buddies.... and the rest is history.

Give High Guardian Spice a chance fellow ANN readers.... animation is hard. You can believe me or call me a liar. I'll leave before Crunchyroll-hime stabs me with a Pocky knife.

I think what’s he’s trying to say is “we get you’re point Erika”. But yeah seen I’ve Erika on many occasions throwing shade at CR’s line up announcements.

I... I am excited about Takt and that is about it. It just really visually appealing to me, and I hope I am not let down but damn does it look pretty at least Anime hyper
