Crunchyroll adds Ace Attorney and more to spring simulcast line-up

Written by A. H. on 02 Apr 2016



The spring season has now officially started, but the new simulcast announcements certainly haven't officially stopped yet, meaning that we have another bundle of new acquisitions from Crunchyroll to add to the UK streaminh list for the next few months.

Here's what's been added this time around:

- Ace Attorney - Adapted from the popular video game franchise, Ace Attorney follows rookie lawyer Naruhodo Ryuuichi (Phoenix Wright) and his assistant Mayoi (Maya) as he defends his clients in a court of law. With limited evidence and logic as his only weapon, can Naruhodo turn the case around when all the odds are stacked against him?

The series begins today, with episodes airing every Saturday at 12PM UK time from this Crunchyroll page.

- The Lost Village - 30 young men and women who came together on a shady bus tour. The tour's destination: an illusive, possibly nonexistent village called Nanakimura. In Nanakimura, one can lead a utopian existence, free of the world's obstacles … or so it was rumored, like an urban legend. "In despair over the real world ... wanting to escape the tedious daily life … wanting to restart your life from scratch…"

The bus headed deep into the mountains, carrying 30 people each harboring their own expectations and wounds in their hearts… And so, the place these 30 arrived at, was an uninhabited village with the lingering faint scents of life, even though it was falling apart.

The first episode of the series is available right now at this Crunchyroll page, with new instalments arriving every Saturday at 2:30AM UK time.

- Future Card Buddyfight Triple D - Gao Mikado, a 6th year student of the Aibo Academy Elementary Division, is partnered with Dragon of the Sun, Bal Dragon, a monster born from a mysterious egg. To earn the coveted title as the strongest fighter in the world, Gao and Bal team up to challenge other fighters in the "World Buddy Cup". The two will have to battle others in a card game called Buddyfight, which allows monsters to fight alongside humans as buddies. Their rivals include ex-Buddy Police Tasuku Ryuenji, and the self-proclaimed strongest combination, Gaito Kurouzu and his buddy monster Black Death Dragon, Abygale.

Meanwhile, evil-doers are aiming to acquire Bal's special abilities. Kyoya Gaen, and his buddy monster Demonic Demise Dragon, Azi Dahaka are up to no good. Kyoya is already one of Japan's richest icons and is also rumored to be one of the strongest Buddyfighters in the world. What could they possibly be aiming for? And why are they seeking this "Ultimate Dragon Power”?

Episode one of the show is available right now from this Crunchyroll page, with episodes arriving every Saturday at 12:30AM UK time.

Pan de Peace - Based on a 4-panel manga by Emily, Pan de Peace! focuses on the bread-loving girl Minami, who is starting high school and loves to eat bread for breakfast, along with her friends Yuu, Fuyumi, and Noa.

There's no time or date set for this show's simulcast at the time of writing.
