Fans of anime and dubbed series are about to have quite an eventful spring season! Lately, Crunchyroll has been rolling out a ton of new originals and simulcasting a lot of new anime, as they release. The best part about this, is it has managed to make the lockdown period, due to COVID-19, more enjoyable with new and fresh shows to keep up with. This week sees a lot of new announcements coming from the streaming service about new dubbed series and some casting choices.
As part of the new spring release slate, for the series, a lot of new anime series are premiering and an equal amount of series are retunring. All of which will be the dub versions, while some will see a release after a short delay. Director of Production, Joshua Lopez had this to say; “I am incredibly proud of the Crunchyroll production team for safely delivering dubs to our community. For the series that experienced delays, we restarted production with a remote cast and crew. We produced about half of ‘Tower of God’ in studio, before shifting to a fully-remote workflow. We also recorded the entirety of the current episodes of ‘The 8th son? Are you kidding me?’ and ‘My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom!’ with a remote cast,”
