Crunchyroll Is Leaving Nintendo Switch on 30 October — No Switch 2 App Confirmed

Leave a comment

If you have been watching anime on your Nintendo Switch, you have about two months to find an alternative. Crunchyroll confirmed on 27 August 2026 that its Nintendo Switch app will be discontinued on 30 October 2026. As of the announcement, the app has already been removed from the Nintendo eShop — so new downloads are no longer possible. Existing users can still access the app until the shutdown date.

What Crunchyroll Said

In a brief statement, Crunchyroll announced that the Switch app “will no longer be available beginning October 30, 2026,” adding: “The good news: The Crunchyroll experience continues everywhere else.” Neither Crunchyroll nor Nintendo offered an explanation for why the app is being discontinued.

Crunchyroll first launched on Nintendo Switch in February 2022. The app ran on the original Switch and Switch Lite, giving anime fans a handheld viewing option separate from a phone. Over four years, the Switch app was a convenient pick for commuters and anyone who preferred a larger screen than a smartphone.

No Switch 2 App on the Horizon

The shutdown lands with an added sting: Crunchyroll has not announced any version of the app for Nintendo Switch 2. As of now there is no Crunchyroll on Switch 2, and Crunchyroll has made no announcements about future Nintendo support. That means the Switch family of devices is losing anime streaming support entirely come October 30, with nothing confirmed to replace it.

For Singapore fans who picked up a Switch 2 in the hope of carrying over their Crunchyroll habit, this is a significant gap — and one that may not be filled anytime soon given the radio silence from both companies.

Where Singapore Fans Can Still Watch Crunchyroll

Crunchyroll is available on over 30 platforms and devices globally, and Singapore subscribers are not losing access to the service — only the Switch app itself is going away. The full list of alternatives includes:

  • Web browser — crunchyroll.com on any PC, Mac, or tablet
  • Mobile — iOS and Android apps remain fully supported
  • PlayStation 4 & 5 — fully supported
  • Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One — fully supported
  • Smart TVs — Samsung, LG, Android TV, and others
  • Media sticks and boxes — Chromecast, Amazon Fire TV, Roku, and Apple TV

For Switch owners who used the portable anime feature on commutes, the most direct substitute is the Crunchyroll mobile app on your phone — the interface and catalogue are identical. Alternatively, a Chromecast or Amazon Fire TV Stick plugged into any screen gives you the same experience on a bigger display.

Crunchyroll has not indicated any refunds or credits tied to the Switch shutdown, so existing subscriptions continue as normal — only the access point is changing. Keep an eye on the latest gaming and anime news in case Crunchyroll announces new platform support in the coming months.

JJK Season 4: Sukuna’s New Visual Drops at Juju Fes 2026

Leave a comment

The King of Curses has something to say. At Juju Fes 2026 — the five-day fifth-anniversary celebration held 29–30 August at K-Arena Yokohama — MAPPA dropped a striking new teaser visual for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 4: The Culling Game Part 2, and Sukuna is front and centre, looking more ominous than ever.

What Juju Fes 2026 Revealed

The new super teaser visual was unveiled on 29 August as part of the anime’s 5th anniversary celebrations at K-Arena Yokohama. It is the first major visual update for Season 4 since the June 2026 teaser trailer that MAPPA released at their 15th anniversary lineup event.

The visual puts Ryomen Sukuna at the centre, depicted beneath dark, murky water, looking straight at the viewer while reaching one hand forward. The mood is far more sinister than a typical anniversary promo — he is almost entirely surrounded by darkness, with the title text for The Culling Game Part 2 framing the image.

Sukuna’s Quote and What It Teases

Accompanying the visual is a line from the King of Curses himself: “Do you remember? I told you that you’d get to see something interesting.”

For fans who have been watching since Season 1, this lands. After Sukuna’s extended silence following the Culling Game Part 1 — now available to Crunchyroll subscribers — the image strongly hints that the King of Curses is about to stop sitting out and start making things very bad for everyone. Part 2 of the Culling Game arc is where the fights reach their most brutal scale, and this visual sets the tone perfectly.

Production Team for Season 4

MAPPA confirmed the Season 4 team alongside the June 2026 teaser announcement. Takeru Sato — who served as assistant director on Season 3 — steps up as director, with Shota Goshozono continuing as chief director. Hiroshi Seko handles series composition, Yoshimasa Terui is on music, and the character design team includes Yosuke Yajima, Hiromi Niwa, and Sota Yamazaki.

No premiere date has been announced. Production is confirmed to be underway, and given the scale of what the Culling Game Part 2 adapts, it is safe to expect Season 4 to be a big one whenever it arrives.

In the meantime, you can catch up on all three seasons, including The Culling Game Part 1, on Crunchyroll and Netflix. Keep an eye on our anime coverage for any premiere date announcement as it comes.

My Crush’s Crush Gets TV Anime — From the Creator of Gamers!

Leave a comment

If you survived the romantic chaos of Gamers!, congratulations — you are now in danger of getting pulled into another delightful spiral. My Crush’s Crush (Boku no Suki na Hito ga Suki na Hito), the manga by the same creator, has just been confirmed for a TV anime adaptation, as reported by Comic Natalie on 27 August 2026.

A Chain of Crushes Nobody Wins

The premise is deceptively simple and wonderfully messy. High schooler Sora Akizuki confesses to his classmate Miya Fuwa — and gets rejected flat out, because she already has feelings for someone else: Asahi Suzukaze, the president of a mysterious group called the Clinical Trials Club. Determined not to give up, Sora joins the club to get closer to Asahi — only to discover that Asahi herself has a crush on someone else. And that someone? Also in love with another person entirely.

It is a loop of unrequited affection that feeds into itself, the kind of romantic domino chain that sounds like it should resolve itself within two chapters but somehow just keeps getting more tangled. The seventh volume of the manga hit shelves in Japan on 28 August 2026 — one day after the anime announcement — which probably did very good things for sales.

Production details are not yet public: no animation studio, no air date, and no voice cast have been announced. The news at this stage is simply that the adaptation is greenlit and in motion.

Why Gamers! Fans Will Feel Right at Home

Writer Sekina Aoi built a reputation on romantic comedy that rewards careful attention. His light novel Gamers! — later adapted into an anime that ran in 2017 — became a cult favourite for its commitment to keeping all its characters in a state of magnificent, self-inflicted confusion. Everyone misread every signal. Everyone jumped to the wrong conclusion at exactly the wrong moment. It was infuriating and funny in equal measure, and Singapore fans who watched it weekly will recognise the energy immediately in My Crush’s Crush.

The manga is illustrated by Ryo Tsuzura (つづら涼), serialised in Hakusensha’s Young Animal ZERO. If the anime follows the manga’s tone, expect a story that is light on drama and heavy on the specific anguish of watching the person you like enthusiastically talk about the person they like.

Read It in English Before the Anime Arrives

Yen Press announced on 21 August 2026 that it had licensed My Crush’s Crush for English publication. An English release date has not been confirmed yet, but the licence is in place, which means SG readers will eventually be able to pick it up through the usual Yen Press channels — both physical volumes and digital through manga platforms. The Japanese volumes (seven so far) are available now if you would rather not wait.

With no air date on the anime, there is a real window to read ahead and be insufferably smug about the plot before your friends catch up via the screen version. We recommend it.

One Piece Elbaph Arc English Dub Arrives 20 October — Weekly on Crunchyroll

Leave a comment

English dub fans, your wait is nearly over. Crunchyroll and Toei Animation have confirmed that the One Piece Elbaph Arc English dub launches on 20 October 2026, starting with Episode 1156 — and in a first for the long-running series, new dubbed episodes will arrive weekly rather than in the multi-episode batches that have defined the dub’s release cadence for years. Southeast Asia, including Singapore, is confirmed in the list of supported regions from day one.

From Batch Drops to Weekly: A Historic Format Change

For most of One Piece’s English dub history, Crunchyroll has rolled out dubbed episodes in clusters — sometimes months apart — leaving dub-watchers perpetually laps behind simulcast viewers. That changes with Elbaph. Starting 20 October, fresh dubbed episodes go live every Tuesday at 9:00 a.m. PT, keeping pace with the ongoing weekly broadcast rather than accumulating a backlog.

The premiere episode (1156) drops 20 October at 9:00 a.m. PT. If you prefer subtitles, the simulcast already runs on Sundays at 9:00 a.m. PT. The dub will be available across the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, India, Southeast Asia, and Latin America.

Before the Elbaph Arc dub even launches, Crunchyroll is warming up with another One Piece release: the One Piece Heroines English, Spanish, and Portuguese dubs arrive on 13 October 2026 at 9:00 a.m. PT — one week earlier. If you haven’t checked out Heroines yet, that’s a clean entry point before the Elbaph marathon begins.

What Is the Elbaph Arc?

The Elbaph Arc follows the Egghead Island Arc — widely regarded as one of the series’ best — and takes the Straw Hat Pirates to Elbaph, the legendary Land of Giants. Joined by the Giant Warrior Pirates, the crew faces fresh allies, towering foes, and long-awaited reunions in a storyline manga readers have been anticipating since the series planted seeds for Elbaph back in the Drum Island days.

On the production side, the arc is helmed by director Ryūta Koike at Toei Animation. The opening theme is “Luminous” by Aina The End, with the ending “Sono Mirai (That Future)” by rock band 36km/h. Toei and Crunchyroll also released an English-dubbed preview clip alongside the dub announcement — a taste of what to expect when Episode 1156 goes live in October.

Singapore: Ready to Watch From 20 October

Singapore sits squarely within the Southeast Asia region Crunchyroll has confirmed for the dub, so there’s no importing or workaround required. A standard Crunchyroll subscription gets you both the sub and dub, with the dubbed stream going live each Tuesday morning — which works out to Tuesday evenings in Singapore time, a reasonable slot for a weekly habit.

For the complete picture: subtitled simulcast on Sundays, One Piece Heroines dub on 13 October, then the Elbaph Arc dub proper on 20 October and every Tuesday after that. The era of waiting months for batch dub releases is done — and one of manga’s most beloved arcs is finally about to get the dubbed weekly treatment it deserves.

BLEACH TYBW Episode 46 ‘THE END’ Airs Tonight on Disney+ Singapore

Leave a comment

Tonight is a big one for BLEACH fans on Disney+ Singapore. Episode 46 of BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War — Part 4: The Calamity, Episode 6 — carries the ominous title “THE END”, and the official preview promises the kind of payoff longtime fans have been building toward for years. It streams from 10:30 PM SGT, the same weekly slot The Calamity has held every Saturday since July.

What ‘THE END’ Has in Store for Ichigo

The official synopsis for Episode 46 sets the scene: morning dawns over Wahrwelt Castle and a “new world” spreads before Ichigo’s eyes. The preview shows him confronting a reality that is brutal and disorienting — but the mission to save the Three Worlds (Soul Society, Hueco Mundo, and the World of the Living) is far from over. Despite the weight of what he faces, Ichigo pushes forward.

Episode 46 is directed by Itoko Nagai, with series composition by Tomohisa Taguchi. Chief animation director Yukio Hasegawa leads a team that has been delivering some of the sharpest animation the series has seen across Part 4, and the preview cuts look to continue that streak.

Uryu vs. Haschwalth: The Battle Heads for Its Conclusion

Running in parallel is the fight between Uryu Ishida and Jugram Haschwalth, which ‘THE END’ is set to push to its climax. The synopsis confirms their duel “grows fiercer” heading into this episode, and the preview stills show both combatants locked in a tense final exchange — Uryu commanding the brilliant blue light of his Quincy abilities against a Haschwalth who appears cool and calculating even in his most pressured moments.

Noriaki Sugiyama reprises Uryu and Yūichirō Umehara plays Haschwalth — two performances that have been a consistent standout across The Calamity’s run. The “End” the title refers to is described in the synopsis as “the End that holds the fate of everything in its hands,” which suggests consequences far beyond this single fight.

Kagurabachi Anime Reveals Hinao and Char Kyonagi Voice Cast

Leave a comment

The Kagurabachi anime adaptation has revealed two more members of its main cast today — and both get their own character trailers. Miku Ito joins as Hinao, the sharp-witted info-broker who keeps the story’s underworld connections running, while Miyari Nemoto voices Char Kyonagi, a plucky young girl on the run who becomes central to protagonist Chihiro Rokuhira’s next mission.

Meet Hinao and Char Kyonagi

Hinao runs Cafe Haru Haru as a front for brokering jobs between clients and sorcerers — she is essentially the information gateway between the civilian world and the underground sorcerer network. Despite her cheerful, easygoing exterior, she is sharp enough to keep that network functioning smoothly. She also took Char under her wing, introducing the young girl to Chihiro’s group.

Char Kyonagi, meanwhile, is the catalyst for the next arc. She is being hunted by people wielding what she describes as “the most strongest sword” — a detail that catches Chihiro’s attention immediately. Described as courageous despite being a child, Char’s situation pulls the main cast into their next major conflict.

The Voice Cast’s Own Words

Miku Ito, a well-regarded voice actress with a busy schedule across major anime titles, said she focused on keeping her performance “relaxed and natural,” aiming for conversational dialogue that matches the manga’s pacing. Miyari Nemoto, tasked with conveying all of Char’s emotional range in a character whose lines run short, noted feeling “a lot of pressure to express all of her emotions as honestly and concisely as possible.”

Both character trailers are out now via the official CyberAgent ANIME Global YouTube channel:

What the Full Cast Looks Like So Far

With today’s additions, the confirmed principal cast now stands at:

  • Chihiro Rokuhira — Taihi Kimura (2025 Seiyu Awards Best New Actor)
  • Kunishige Rokuhira — Tomokazu Seki
  • Togo Shiba — Katsuyuki Konishi
  • Hinao — Miku Ito
  • Char Kyonagi — Miyari Nemoto

The anime is being produced by Cypic (a CyberAgent subsidiary), directed by Tetsuya Takeuchi — best known for his work on Heavenly Delusion and Hinamatsuri. Character design is handled by Keigo Sasaki.

Singapore and SEA Streaming

Crunchyroll is confirmed as the international streaming home for Kagurabachi, which covers Singapore. Muse Asia is also on board as a regional platform for Southeast Asia — so whether you catch it on Crunchyroll or via Muse on YouTube, Singapore fans will have options from day one.

The manga, by Takeru Hokazono and published in Weekly Shonen Jump, has passed 4 million copies in circulation. Kagurabachi premieres in April 2027.

Madoka Magica: Walpurgisnacht Rising Opens in Japan Today

Leave a comment

The wait of more than a decade is finally over. Puella Magi Madoka Magica the Movie: Walpurgisnacht Rising, the long-awaited sequel to 2013’s Rebellion, opened in Japanese cinemas today — August 28, 2026. After four delays that tested the patience of fans worldwide, Studio Shaft’s Gen Urobuchi and director Akiyuki Shinbô have delivered the continuation Singapore’s magical-girl community has been demanding since Homura rewrote the universe.

What Is Walpurgisnacht Rising?

For the uninitiated: Walpurgisnacht Rising picks up after the events of Madoka Magica the Movie: Rebellion (2013), which ended with Homura Akemi rewriting reality and placing herself in opposition to Madoka. The new film centres on Homura confronting the consequences of that decision — and a new threat connected to Walpurgisnacht, the witch whose defeat formed the climax of the original TV series.

Studio Shaft returns in full force. Director Yukihiro Miyamoto co-helms alongside Shinbô, with Gen Urobuchi’s script and character designs by Ume Aoki and Gekidan Inu Curry’s legendary witch sequences intact. The theme song is performed by FictionJunction, the project led by Yuki Kajiura — who composed the franchise’s iconic score — making the musical continuity as tight as the narrative one. The full trailer released in June gave fans their clearest look yet at what’s coming.

Why the Delays — and Why August 28?

Walpurgisnacht Rising was first announced for Winter 2024, then slipped to Winter 2025, then February 2026, before Shaft confirmed August 28 as its final date. The studio has not given detailed public explanations for each delay, but the production’s ambition — and Shaft’s reputation for pushing its own limits — is a plausible read. August 28 carries symbolic weight for fans familiar with Goethe’s Faust, which is woven into the franchise’s mythology: Walpurgisnacht historically falls on the night of April 30, and Goethe’s birthday is August 28. For Shaft to open the film on this date feels deliberate.

IMAX screenings are available at select venues in Japan as part of a 37-country theatrical window confirmed earlier this month — as we reported then. That piece covers the full international scope of the release.

What Singapore Fans Need to Know Right Now

The theatrical run begins in Japan today, but no Singapore release date has been announced. The 37-country window does not include a confirmed Southeast Asia theatrical slot, and no streaming platform has announced a regional licence. Based on how comparable Aniplex films have been handled — Violet Evergarden: The Movie and the Demon Slayer films as reference points — a regional window or streaming premiere within six months is plausible, but nothing is confirmed yet.

In the meantime, if you are making a trip to Japan while the theatrical run is live, this is one for the cinema. Singapore fans who attended advance screenings in Tokyo have already begun posting reactions on X under #ワルプルギスの廻天 — search there for spoiler-light impressions. The official Madoka Magica USA site will carry any international release announcements as they come.

The Long Road From Rebellion to Rising

Thirteen years is a long time to wait for a sequel. Rebellion divided fans when it released in 2013 — its ending was either a bold narrative betrayal or a masterstroke, depending on who you ask — but it unambiguously left the story unfinished. The decade-plus gap gave the fandom time to theorise, argue, and eventually just hope. Today, those theories get their answer.

Whether Walpurgisnacht Rising sticks the landing, resolves Homura’s arc in a way that satisfies the post-Rebellion discourse, and gives Madoka herself her due is something we will revisit once the Singapore community has had a chance to watch it. For now: it is out. The 13-year wait is over. Stay tuned to our anime coverage as the film’s reception develops.

The World’s Strongest Witch Gets Full Cast and New Trailer Ahead of 7 October Premiere

Leave a comment

Japan’s fall 2026 anime season is lining up fast, and The World’s Strongest Witch (Sekai Saikyou no Majo, Hajimemashita) has just made its case for one of the stronger debuts. A new promotional video dropped this week alongside a fully confirmed main cast — and there are some recognisable names in the lineup for Singapore fans who follow the seiyuu scene.

An Internet Skill in a Fantasy World

Lorna Hermit was born into a prestigious witch family — until her SSS-rank skill turned out to be “Internet.” Written off as a useless ability and expelled from home, she steps into the wider world for the first time and quickly realises what everyone else missed: the Internet lets her look up absolutely everything. Monster weaknesses, hidden dungeon routes, the best gear builds, rare recipes. What was dismissed as a joke skill turns out to be the most powerful tool in existence.

The premise comes from author Sakaki Mochimaru, with illustrations by riritto. A manga adaptation by Tamaki Toga runs in Kodansha’s Monthly Shōnen Sirius. The light novel currently spans thirteen volumes in Japan — the series has a solid fanbase to draw on ahead of the anime launch.

Main Cast Revealed

The newest promotional video confirms the complete main cast. Azusa Tachibana leads the series as protagonist Lorna, while Kana Hanazawa — one of the most celebrated voice actresses working in anime today — joins as Aries Tear Bluemoon, the guildmaster of the port city of Aquas. The full ensemble:

  • Azusa Tachibana as Lorna Hermit
  • Fairouz Ai as Elmina Manaflame
  • Honoka Inoue as Erna
  • Kana Hanazawa as Aries Tear Bluemoon
  • Maria Naganawa as Ruru Ru Rie, a young water dragon princess
  • Yuto Uemura as Reinhardt Highwind (newly announced this week)

Theme Songs and Staff

On the music side, HoneyWorks feat. HaKoniwalily perform the opening theme “Eikyoryoku ∞ Idol,” while singer-songwriter Rokudenashi handles the ending “Hoshi wo Meguru.” Both artists have followings among anime fans and the tracks get brief previews in the new promo video.

Joji Furuta directs the series at studios Bridge and AISLE. Shoji Yonemura is handling series composition, with Yuki Morimoto as character designer.

Tokyo Revengers Season 4: New Trailer Out Now and Ending Theme Revealed

Leave a comment

Three days ago, on 24 August, the official Tokyo Revengers anime channel released the fourth and latest promotional video for War of the Three Titans Arc — and with it came the reveal that fans had been waiting for: the ending theme song. We covered the opening theme by JO1 back in July; here is what this new update adds ahead of the October premiere.

Ending Theme: “TRICK STAR” by go!go!vanillas

The closing theme for Tokyo Revengers: War of the Three Titans Arc is “TRICK STAR”, performed by go!go!vanillas — an Osaka-based indie rock band known for their high-energy guitar work and anthemic live performances. The song title and artist were revealed for the first time alongside the 4th trailer on 24 August 2026.

Paired with the already-confirmed opening, “IGNITE” by JO1, the season gets a musically sharp contrast: JO1’s polished J-pop energy at the start, go!go!vanillas’ raw indie rock to close each episode — a combination that mirrors the chaotic, three-way gang war at the arc’s core.

New Key Visual and What the 4th Trailer Shows

A new key visual accompanies the trailer, placing the three faction leaders front and centre: Mikey (Tokyo Manji Gang), South Terano (Rokuhara Tandai), and Senju Kawaragi (Brahman). The 4th PV gives the most comprehensive look yet at the scale of the three-way war that defines this arc — manga readers will recognise it as one of the series’ most brutal and consequential storylines.

The season is directed by Maki Kodaira at LIDENFILMS, taking over from Koichi Hatsumi who directed the first three seasons and moves to script supervision. Music is composed by Hiroaki Tsutsumi, returning from previous seasons.

Singapore’s Disney+ subscribers get day-one access with no regional delay. Mariya Ise, the voice of Senju Kawaragi, will also appear at New York Comic Con (8–11 October) to promote the season internationally — expect more clips and fan interactions around that weekend.
