posted on by Karen Ressler
FUNimation Entertainment announced on Monday that it will offer a simuldub of Ace Attorney Season 2 (Gyakuten Saiban ~Sono "Shinjitsu," Igiari!~ Season 2) this fall. In addition, Funimation announced that it will continue to offer a simuldub for Golden Kamuy when the second season premieres this fall. Funimation's simuldub episodes typically debut a few weeks after the Japanese broadcast.
Ace Attorney will premiere on October 6 on YTV and NTV at 5:30 p.m. JST, the same timeslot as the first anime. The show will replace My Hero Academia, which is currently airing in this timeslot.
Original game director Shu Takumi is collaborating on the anime. A-1 Pictures is again handling animation production, with returning staff members director Ayumu Watanabe, series writer Atsuhiro Tomioka, composer Kaoru Wada, and character designer and chief animation director Keiko Ōta. Yukiko Imai is serving as assistant director.
The first series premiered in April 2016 and covered the first two games in the series. Crunchyroll streamed the anime as it aired in Japan, and Funimation released the first part on home video in January.
