After all, the licensor did just announce its SimulDub lineup for the spring season, and it is very ambitious.
The slides below breakdown Funimation’s upcoming SimulDub schedule, and fans are happy to see the studio challenge itself. A total of ten new titles will be added to its SimulDub catalog, and several of them are big franchises. My Hero Academia will get its usual SimulDub as will Tokyo Ghoul:re, High School DxD, and more.
Of course, Funimation will keep up its SimulDub work for anime which began in the winter season. Black Clover will keep up its usual dub schedule as will Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card. Basilisk: The Ouka Ninja Scrolls, DARLING in the FRANXX, and others will keep up the trend until their episodes are all accounted for.
