Crunchyroll unveils its summer anime lineup, including the return of a video game adaptation
Here are the anime shows you'll be watching on Crunchyroll this summer
Crunchyroll has unveiled its summer anime lineup, with dozens of new shows and old favorites to look forward to over the next few months.
The anime streamer is brightening up what is, typically, a traditionally dry season for new releases. Among the highlights are Tower of God season 2 on July 7, plus the return of Nier: Automata Ver1.1A, the adaptation of the beloved 2017 PlatinumGames title, on July 5.
Monogotari’s Off & Monster season is streaming from July 6, while we have a keen interest in new series Wistoria: Wand and Sword, which sees protagonist Will Serfort aim to prove the sword is mightier than the wand in a world where magic reigns supreme.
