Squid Girl Inks in a Brand New Episode Today on Crunchyroll

Crunchyroll makes a splash this season with the release the first episode of its brand new comedic series SQUID GIRL

San Francisco, Calif. (October 8, 2010) – Crunchyroll is no fish out of water this season, as it launches SQUID GIRL tomorrow and every Saturday at 12:30 pm PDT.

With the environment ever deteriorating on a global scale, rage of those who suffer the most is about to erupt. Take SQUID GIRL, for example. She is hell-bent on annihilating the mankind before her species is wiped off the surface of the earth, or, to be precise, off the bottom of the ocean. As she sets out on her vengeful journey, however, she becomes aware of certain limitations. She¹s nothing but a squid out of water!

Episodes can be accessed from Crunchyroll.com, tv.com, the free iPad and iPhone application, the Boxee application and affiliate partners.

Crunchyroll premium members will have access to the largest anime and drama selection, same-day access for simulcasted titles, no advertisements and can be viewed in 480p-to-720p quality on selected titles.
