The1gairon Posted October 27, 2018 Posted October 27, 2018 This is kinda already reiterating what we knew all this time. Mob Psycho 100 is a Crunchyroll-funded dub, and as such, it's also Toonami's first Crunchyroll anime. Quote
ben0119 Posted October 27, 2018 Posted October 27, 2018 (edited) Interesting. The times, they are a-changing. At least now Toonami will have a whole other library of shows to play with. @elfie I thought Crunchyroll was mainly a subs thing. Edit - Also guess this means Mob Psycho 100 isn't on Funimation Now anymore. So I missed watching it there when I had the chance, but I'll enjoy watching it more with everyone else on Toonami.

Jman Posted October 27, 2018 Posted October 27, 2018 The same day Crunchyroll announced 2 million subscribers, they announced this. Losing Funi was a huge blow and they’re clearly fortifying their remaining alliances. Quote
OwlChemist81 Posted October 27, 2018 Posted October 27, 2018 What's interesting is they've both got an alliance with Toonami, though their partnership is over. With Crunchy and Toonami joining forces, we COULD see dub premieres of Sentai shows again before they go to HI-DIVE! Quote

In fact, I wonder if CR even wants that, as there's a possibility another company might buy Sentai to get in on the anime game and cause them to split from VRV. Quote

Sketch Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 I was thinking that Wrap article was making something out of nothing but DeMarco went and said this so I don’t know anymore. https://ask.fm/Clarknova/answers/150733725929 1 Quote
PokeNirvash Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 Well, Mob Psycho airing on the block's a start, at least. Quote
The1gairon Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 ... ... so I guess Mob Psycho 100 airing at apparently the last minute to the point where they could only announce it UNDER A WEEK before its start was just a coincidence... 1 Quote

OwlChemist81 Posted November 1, 2018 Posted November 1, 2018 It didn't EXACTLY replace it--Anime Network STILL exists as a VOD service on DirecTV. Quote
