This past weekend at NY Comic Con, Crunchyroll dropped a slew of announcements including new trailers, images, updates, premiere dates, the introduction of Crunchyroll-Hime’s debut in Mitrasphere, as well as a first look at the upcoming Crunchyroll and Adult Swim Original series, Shenmue.
- Created, and executive produced by Raye Rodriguez, the series is about the lives of four fierce girls whose lives converge at High Guardian Academy. This is the one place where they can stumble comically toward adulthood while becoming the heroes they’ve always admired. As they master the ways of battle and soccery, the foursome form allegiances, uncover legacies, face betrayals, and discover their true identities while preparing to protect the world from an ominous unknown threat.
Check out the new official trailer:
Crunchyroll also shared announcements for Crunchyroll and Adult Swim’s Original series:
- Welcome to Whitechapel: last bastion of humanity. Six years ago, the world “ended” in a single, apocalyptic event, trapping Great Britain behind a mysterious dome of purple energy. London’s last neighborhood has persevered thanks to the protection of the “FreakAngels” — a small group of psychically-powered twenty-three-year-olds. Their fragile peace becomes threatened, however, when an exiled friend returns, exposing past conspiracies and new conflicts within their fractured, makeshift family. Can Whitechapel survive?
