Yeah, I'm not spending £5 for this nonsense.
 
So far the UK has:
Ace of the Diamond
Bottom Biting Bug 2 (Season 2) ~ Season 1 also available for UK
Diabolik Lovers
Galilei Donnawill
Gingitsune: Messenger Fox of the Gods
Golden Time
Infinite Stratos 2 (Season 2)
Little Busters! Refrain (Season 2) ~ Season 1 also available for UK
Miss Monochrome: The Animation
Teekyu 3 (Season 3) ~ Season 1 and 2 also available for UK
Valvrave the Liberator 2 (Season 2) ~ Season 1 also available for UK
Walkure Romanze
White Album 2 (Season 2) ~ Season 1 also available for UK

and if anyone's interested; Hakuba no Ōjisama, a new J-drama show.

I'm a bit disappointed that some of the highlighted shows are not available (Beyond the Boundary, Kill la Kill, Magi (Season 2)) but there's still hope for Kuroko's Basketball Season 2.
 
Given the best thing on there is Valvrave and that's a story telling flustercuck that defaults to rape for drama I'm gonna call worst CR season right now.

Kill La Kill streaming on All the Anime for two weeks, and then on Wakanim.co.uk when that service starts up.

A French streaming site which isn't Anime on Delay. I guess the final nail has been put into that coffin.

Wakanim doing DRM free download to own, episodes to stream free for a month after broadcast (ad supported), download to watch for four days.

After a month, 69p per episode to stream (30 days access), £1.25 to buy a permanent download.

Just going to put it out there, if this backdates to the previous Aniplex series like SAO this might sink my buying the Manga release.

Does adding Nagi no Asukara and Strike the Blood to the list change your opinion at all?

Personally I'm interested in the wrestling one, and I'll give the other one a try.

Just tried Kill La Kill ep 1 and I don't see myself sticking with it for long. Too much Gurren Lagann crossed with Kekko Kamen.

If the manga is any indication "Thanks, Obama, because you dealt with the problem I'm out of a cushy job!" is as generic light novel tsundere nonsense as it can get.
 
Log Horizon (or SAO: The remake) and Hajime no Ippo. Liking the idea of sports anime, even if I don't watch them, as they hardly ever see physical releases. CR make up for the lack of early UK streaming with their latter announcements.

Looks like one more empty box to fill.

And Wakanim/ Anime Limited have another streaming announcement due today at 1pm

It may be Friday afternoon but the announcements are not over yet here at Crunchyroll! Log Horizon will be airing on Crunchyroll this fall, starting TOMORROW, October 5, at 4:30am Pacific Time.

Log Horizon will be available to Crunchyroll audiences in the following territories: North America, UK, Ireland, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Latin America, Scandinavia, and the Netherlands.


“One day, while playing the online game Elder Tales, 30,000 players suddenly find themselves trapped in another world. There, eight-year veteran gamer Shiroe also gets left behind. The trapped players are still alive, but they remain in combat with the monsters. The players don't understand what has happened to them, and they flee to Akiba, the largest city in Tokyo, where they are thrown into chaos. Once proud of his loner lifestyle, Shiroe forms a guild called Log Horizon with his old friend Naotsugu, female assassin Akatsuki and others. From the ruins of Akiba, the Shiroe who shuns human contact sets out with his friends to change the world.”

Log Horizon is based off of a light novel of the same name, written by Mamare Touno. Shiroe is voiced by Takuma Terashima, who also voiced Otoya Ittoki in the Uta no Prince Sama series, Emiri Kato, also known as Koko from Tsuritama, will be voicing Akatsuki, and Tomoaki Maeno, whose other roles include Kai Takemura from Say “I love you”, stars as Naotsugu.

PUT YOUR BOXING GLOVES ON.

BECAUSE HAJIME NO IPPO: The Fighting! –Rising- IS COMING TO CRUNCHYROLL

Hajime No Ippo: The Fighting! –Rising- is set to broadcast every Saturday starting on October 5, 2013 at 11:00am Pacific Time for audiences in the following territories: U.S.A, Canada, UK, Ireland, Iceland, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Turkey, Spain, Portugal, Central and South America, and the Caribbean.



Hajime No Ippo is a Japanese boxing manga written and illustrated by George Morikawa and has appeared in Weekly Shonen Magazine since 1989. After being frequently bullied as a child, Ippo's encounter with the sport of boxing inspired him to think about what true strength really is. Ippo has endured the kind, yet rigorous, instruction of Coach Kamogawa and defeated one powerful opponent after another.

He mastered his signature punch, the Dempsey roll, and even became the champion of all Japan. But even as champion, he still hasn't found the meaning of "true strength," but perhaps in this new series he will rise to the upper echelons where he belongs...

The announcement for 1PM is:

Samurai Flamenco

After yesterday's announcement of Anime Limited's partnership with new streaming service Wakanim and their acquisition of Kill La Kill for streaming to the UK this autumn (the first episode of which is now available), today we have some exclusive news of our own from the distributor for your delectation!

Very good news it is too, as we can confirm that Samurai Flamenco will be streaming to the UK courtesy of Anime Limited - the first episode of the series should go live on the All The Anime simulcast page on Thursday, October 10th from around 6:30PM, with future episodes going live on the new service's official page once that service goes live.

The series is also the first to be fully approved to appear on Wakanim's UK download-to-own and download-to-rent service once that goes live over the coming weeks.

Animated by Manglobe and directed by Takahiro Omori, the series - which airs in Japan on Fuji Television's noitaminA slot this autumn - tells the story of a man with no superpowers or talent who decides to become a lone superhero, and his relationship with a policeman who discovers said hero's true identity on account of this hero causing him no end of headaches.

If you'd like to know a little more about the directorial career of Takahiro Omori and why his presence alone makes the series noteworthy, check out this short article we've prepared to guide you through the seminal works he's had a hand in thus far.

Yeah, turns out it's fine now. It was probably just either me misinterpreting it or a quirk on their end. Usually they put "UK" as a seperate thing, but i guess because all of Europe is getting it, they decided not to bother mentioning it that way. A little confusion on my end.

One more TBD box has appeared.
