Mother Nature has been causing some serious havoc in North America this week. The California wildfires are causing damage in the West and a serious cold snap is causing problems in the East. While many American citizens have been affected by the wild swings in weather and environmental factors, so to has the anime industry been affected by some of these changes in the atmosphere. Crunchyroll has confirmed that some major anime franchises will be releasing future episodes a bit later than originally planned, pushing back English Dub releases. Ultimately, you might be surprised at which major anime series have been affected due to the weather in Dallas, Texas.

As mentioned previously, some serious snow and cold winter conditions have hit many states in North America, with Texas being a prime example. Since many anime voice actors work their magic in Dallas, the snowy conditions have thrown a monkey wrench into their previously scheduled recording sessions. A new release date has yet to be confirmed for these delayed episodes, though we have to imagine that the turnaround time won’t have fans waiting that much longer than usual. Fingers crossed that everyone in the anime industry is able to ride out the winter conditions for the next few days and get back into the anime game safely.
