Crunchyroll App on Sky to spread Anime across the UK and Ireland

Crunchyroll, the ultimate home for anime worldwide, is launching on Sky TV platforms in the UK and Ireland, which allows Sky customers to access the service directly through Sky Glass and Sky Stream, rolling out from today and onto Sky Q by the end of the summer.

Anime is experiencing massive growth across the world, with 15 million subscribing to Crunchyroll on a monthly basis. Launching onto Sky TV products will allow millions of households across the country access to Crunchyroll’s extensive library of nearly 2,000 anime series and films, as well as more than 3,500 music videos and concerts.

This announcement comes just in time for Crunchyroll’s massive winter anime season, which includes Solo Leveling Season 2 – Arise from the Shadow, the hit dark fantasy series returning to follow Sung Jinwoo as he masters his necromancer abilities; Dr. STONE SCIENCE FUTURE, the final season of the hit apocalyptic science series; The Apothecary Diaries Season 2,  where Maomao’s keen intellect and daring instincts unravel even more palace mysteries – all alongside more than 40 series premiering new episodes weekly just after their Japanese broadcast.

Crunchyroll is the global brand providing fans with the most immersive anime experience, offering simulcast series at the speed of Japan, alongside theatrical premieres, in person events, both free to play and subscription games through Crunchyroll Games and Crunchyroll Game Vault, merchandise within the Crunchyroll Store, and so much more.
