posted on by Karen Ressler
Pony Canyon announced on Friday that, as of December 9, the first season (episodes 1-13) of Kuromukuro is available on Netflix in nine additional languages: English, French, Italian, German, Portuguese, Turkish, Polish, Spanish, and Castilian Spanish.
The second season (episodes 14-26) is still available in Japanese only with subtitles, but will launch in other languages on January 13.
Ponycan USA describes Kuromukuro:
During the construction of the Kurobe Dam, an ancient artifact was discovered, and so the United Nations Kurobe Research Institute was established. Intellectuals from all over the world gathered to study the object, and the children of those researchers attend Tateyama International High School, including the institute head's daughter, Yukina Shirahane. In the summer of 2016, a lone samurai once again awakens.
Netflix began streaming Kuromukuro in Japan in April with English subtitles, and it streamed new episodes weekly. The anime premiered in Japan on Tokyo MX on April 7. Netflix began streaming the first season in Japanese with English subtitles in the U.S. on July 4, and added the second season on October 10.
Ponycan USA plans to release the series in the United States.
