Back in August 2021, Crunchyroll and Funimation shook up the entire anime genre, as it was announced that Sony would unify the brands, creating one giant place for fans to get all of their anime. Recently, the merger has been signified via some significant changes, including a boatload of new subs and dubs being added to Crunchyroll.
Today, another big change is coming in the form of some alterations to the brands’ Youtube channels, as the official Funimation channel is now becoming Crunchyroll Dubs. As the name suggests, the rebranded page will now be home to anime clips, trailers, and full episodes of fan-favorite English-dubbed anime.
You can check out the official statement from Crunchyroll and Funimation right down below:
Funimation is unifying under the Crunchyroll brand, and as such, so is their YouTube channel. Funimation’s YouTube channel, which consists of 3.7 million subscribers and has been in operation since 2006, is now becoming Crunchyroll Dubs!
