Crunchyroll Announces Lineup of Dozens of New and Returning Anime Titles Coming to Streaming This Summer
The list is highlighted by old favorites like ‘My Hero Academia’ and new releases like ‘Twilight Out of Focus,’ but there’s a ton more to see on Crunchyroll this summer.
Is it time to dub 2024 The Summer of Streaming? Data recently published by Nielsen shows that in May 2024, streaming services accounted for a bigger percentage of total TV viewing than they had in any previous month. Streamers could see viewership reach even greater heights during the summer months, and the anime-focused service Crunchyroll is taking advantage. This week, Crunchyroll announced its summer lineup of new, returning and continuing shows, a schedule that runs more than 40 titles deep.
Key Details:
- New series releases start on June 26, and continue until August.
- Continuing shows on Crunchyroll include mega-hits like “My Hero Academia” and “One Piece.”
- Most new arrivals will have subtitle options only, but a few will also offer English dubs.
Crunchyroll will begin debuting new episodes of subtitled and simulcasted shows on June 26, when “The Strongest Magician in the Demon Lord’s Army Was a Human” debuts. Many more simulcast premieres will take place over the course of July, before the summer schedule concludes with “Delico’s Nursery” on Aug. 7.
New premieres aren’t the only thing to get excited about on Crunchyroll this summer, however. New episodes of anime favorites like “My Hero Academia,” “One Piece,” “Spice and Wolf: MERCHANT MEETS THE WISE WOLF” and many other titles are arriving on the streamer each week.
