Million Arthur is clearly because of the new deal with bilibili. Not sure if that’s gonna move any subs but good for them. Also wasn’t expecting an occult dub, but welcome it.

The blog still says they’ve got more too.

Technically no. Bungo stray dogs and shield hero being the biggest notes (honestly not sure what's happenned with shield hero though since Funimation claimed it would be part of winter lineup)

I guess Shield Hero is in a similar situation to Magus Bride and is a casualty of the FuniRoll split disputes.

I guess but it was announced they would be airing the dub well after it had been announced that they were splitting.

I'm still saying Shield Hero will be on Funimation at some point. When asked about it the official twitter account for the show said "For now it's only on Crunchyroll" So that has to mean it will appear somewhere else at some point.

If Funimation still gets Shield Hero, at this point it will probably be after all of the dub is on Crunchyroll first.

Funimation's licensing deal with bibibili is quickly getting results. I am curious to see Million Arthur and it is nice to hear that it is getting a simuldub.

Funimation did good this season and when it comes to exclusive new shows that I liked there is about 3 shows on Crunchyroll and about 5 shows on Funimation. There are a few continuing shows on Crunchyroll I am watching so I don't mind but it will be interesting to see how they do the next few seasons.

They are? Personally I dont think a Nichijou dub would work since a lot of the jokes are rooted in Japanese word play, but I wouldn't complain too much.

If they can do pop team epic justice then they have a good fighting chance with Nichijou
