Crunchyroll has officially announced it will stream a same-day English dub for The Unaware Atelier Meister, the upcoming anime adaptation of Yōsuke Tokino's light novel series. The English dub will premiere alongside the Japanese advance streaming of the anime, giving fans immediate access in both languages.
The anime’s full title—Kanchigai no Atelier Meister: Eiyū Party no Moto Zatsuyō-Gakari ga, Jitsu wa Sentō Igai ga SSS Rank Datta to Iu Yoku Aru Hanashi—roughly translates to The Unaware Atelier Meister: The Former Handyman of a Hero’s Party Turns Out to Be SSS-Rank at Everything Except Fighting.
