UK Anime Distributor Crunchyroll/Funimation/Manga UK Discussion Thread

So I guess Crunchyroll are going back to giving slipcovers to all of the UK editions? This flip flopping is driving me up the wall. Ad least we are getting some catalogue titles that never got a release here like Uzaki-Chan season 1 even if its only to make up for season 2 coming out. No LE for season 1 disappointingly.
Gonna be annoying when the Quints movie is out and S2 will be the only one without a slipcover 😅
 

A Galaxy Next Door also in June. have a bad feeling this will also be £54.99 SRP but no listings as of yet.

Edit: Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Punch is also mentioned, which is strange because the first season never released here...

Considering they released S1 of Classroom of the Elite and will be releasing S1 of Uzaki when / with the second season released / releasing, you'd think they do the same for Kuma Kuma Bear.

Could just be a classic Crunchyroll error for the mean time but honestly didn't think we'd get a UK release of Kuma Kuma Bear, I welcome it fully!

Not including Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague which should be on there, the ones that are missing from the line-up are BLUE LOCK Part 2, Dead Mount Death Play Part 1, Dr. STONE: NEW WORLD Part 1, and Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World for My Retirement from the US May slate, which will all likely be saved for late June or early July's slate.

My Home Hero wasn't mentioned which is a shame as it's a solid series.
 
Does anyone know why Manga UK's The Last: Naruto the Movie [blu-ray] is near impossible to find? Not even CEX have it.

I'm guessing it just had a low print run and isn't in print anymore?

The release was almost 8 years ago, so I wouldn’t be surprised if Crunchyroll UK no longer have the rights - especially given that Anime Limited now has the TV shows.
 
New Crunchyroll listings available to pre-order on AOL (we've known about these through other listings and BBFC ratings so no new surprises here).

  • A Galaxy Next Door
  • Blue Lock (Part 2) (BD)
  • Blue Lock (Part 2) (DVD)
  • Dead Mount Death Play (Part 1)
  • Dr. Stone: New World (Part 1) (BD)
  • Dr. Stone: New World (Part 1) (DVD)
  • My Home Hero
  • Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World for my Retirement

I think i'm ready to go to another world after viewing that slate


Buddy Daddies is the one i'd like to see over here, but theres 4 isekai/tensei related things so, I've seen this enough times

I'd hope it would get released here too. Buddy Daddies was a series I looked at and thought, "This looks weird but I got recommended it so I'll try and watch it" and then binged it in 2 nights. It was just so easy to watch more.

Crunchyroll UK must be having a field day seeing all these. I haven't seen it but if we don't get Buddy Daddies but all these it won't be surprising but disappointing though it seems lately (the past few months anyway) they're licensing the majority of titles listed in the U.S. slate.
 
I did enjoy The Reincarnation of the Strongest Exorcist in Another World, so that is the one isekai for June I will get. The other three I was not interested in. Buddy Daddies reminds me somewhat of a Spy x Family clone; I started wathing it but only saw about 4 episodes so far, but it seemed decent. I'd like to finish that one before I decide if I want it.
 
I'm shocked they didn't skip My Home Hero and Revenger as they normally they would skip those LOL
Heck they eventually brought Classroom of the Elite and Uzaki Chan, despite them being previously skipped years ago.

Whaaat, Buddy Daddies already gets a blu-ray release but The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady still hasn't got one??? Also, where's blu-ray release for MyGO???
