Fortune Arterial Joins the Crunchyroll Arsenal Today

Fans sink their teeth into Fortune Arterial on Crunchyroll as the first episode goes live today

San Francisco, Calif. (October 8, 2010) – Fans with their fangs out will fly to the newest simulcast airing today at 11 am PDT on Crunchyroll: FORTUNE ARTERIAL. Premium anime and all access members will be able to view this title in high definition and without any ads. Free users will be able to view this one week later. More information can be found at www.Crunchyroll.com.

FORTUNE ARTERIAL starts off in the month of April, as this is the tenth transfer for Kohei Hasekura; but this time it will be an event to remember. His new school Shuchikan Academy is a rather preppy, traditional, Christian place, and what matters is that it's a boarding school. This means that he won't have to be dragged away by his dad and his endless string of job transfers. Kohei has a chance at a settled life that he has always desired. He can take back all the things he left behind and all the things he missed in his transferring days.

Shuchikan Academy is on an island named Tamatsu Island, which is off-shore from mainland Japan. Just when he thought life would be uneventful, he discovers that one of the students in the class next door to his is in fact a vampire!

Episodes can be accessed from Crunchyroll.com, tv.com, the free iPad and iPhone application, the Boxee application and affiliate partners.

Crunchyroll premium members will have access to the largest anime and drama selection, same-day access for simulcasted titles, no advertisements and can be viewed in 480p-to-720p quality on selected titles. More information about the Crunchyroll membership plan can be found at: http://www.Crunchyroll.com/freetrial/
