Wasn't Alternative going to be on Netflix? Or is that just Japan? I wonder about whether they'll dub it since they'll also have 86's second cour in that season as well...

Also between Faraway Paladin and World's Finest Assassin, I wonder which has the best chance of being their Isekai dub of the season?

I'll check out Love of Kill and maybe Skeleton Knight.

The article forgot World's End Harem.
Anyway, glad to see someone picked it up. I hope they'll be able to get it on a disc someday. That tends to be up in the air with a lot of CR shows...

There was some speculation that since MLA was announced as running on FujiTV’s “+Ultra” block, and previous +Ultra shows have gone straight to Netflix in the West, that MLA would follow the same path. Kind of a relief that it’ll air on Crunchyroll without spending time in Netflix Jail.

I mean, there’s like a million other things to worry about with MLA, but at least we’ll get it as a simulcast.

Welp there goes the chance for a legal way to watch the a potential uncensored version of world’s end harem.

Crunchyroll isn’t that keen on acquiring the uncensored version of shows they license.

All that under the assumption that world’s end harem has even an uncensored version, meaning if it’s only censored with no uncensored version on disc or at-x then the show is honestly completely unwatchable.

fun fact:Muv-Luv's previous anime,Schwarzens Marken,was one of the very first anime dubs produced by CR in other non-English languages(ironically,it never received an english dub,to this day,though.)

It's too soon to say, really. It depends on how deeply involved they are with it.
If they're on the production committee they more than likely will stream both potential versions, just like they did with Senran Kagura back in 2018.

That said, it is true they're usually rather lax about obtaining uncut versions, unfortunately. Though it's worth noting that some shows may not even offer them to overseas licensors until it's time for the home video release, and Crunchyroll only does those for specific shows in specific partnerships...

I meant that I want older Pretty Cure titles on CR besides the ones that are there already. I am also hopeful that RetroCrush might pick some up too.
