All new anime coming to Funimation and CrunchyRoll fall: The fall anime season is here, and there is a truly incredible amount of anime between Funimation and Crunchyroll’s still separate services. The services released their fall lineups this week, and the biggest problem you’ll have is deciding what to watch first.
Funimation announced the acquisition of Crunchyroll in December 2020 and officially completed it last month. The merged organization has yet to announce how it plans to handle the two streaming services separately. Crunchyroll will see shows like Blade Runner: Black Lotus and Platinum End, while Funimation has titles like Ranking of Kings and The Vampire Dies in No Time.
