The surreal mystery of Higurashi will continue! We’re excited to announce that Higurashi: When They Cry – SOTSU will arrive this July on Funimation.
Higurashi: When They Cry – NEW debuted in Fall 2020 and quickly gained interest from longtime fans of the series and newcomers jumping in for the first time, as its early twists and turns proved unique in the horror and psychological anime space.
Things got a bit wild when it was revealed that the “true” title of the series was Higurashi: When They Cry – GOU, and that it was actually a continuation of the original series! And now, the next chapter has been revealed.
Fun fact: The kanji for SOTSU and GOU together is sotsugyou 卒業, which means “Graduation,” and is a big part of the story in GOU.

Re: Unreleased Licensed U.S. Anime Properties
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Sentai Brandishes “SWORDGAI The Animation”
HOUSTON, TX — March 23, 2021 — Sentai announced today that it acquired distribution rights to brutal action series SWORDGAI The Animation for audiences in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Scandinavia, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, and Latin America.
In this world, sentient, powerful swords rain death on a powerless populace. Gai Ogata’s parents are murdered by Shiryu, a cursed blade with an endless thirst for blood. From childhood, Gai is transfixed on Shiryu, training as a blacksmith in hopes of someday surpassing the sword’s deadly guile with a creation of his own. But when another tragic turn of events costs Gai his arm, his master repurposes Shiryu into an unconventional prosthetic, binding Gai to the bloodthirsty weapon permanently. Now Gai must learn to control the sword’s most violent impulses before he faces Zsoltgewinn, the legendary sword so powerful that no mere human can wield it — and only one of these legendary blades will come away from the clash victorious.
SWORDGAI The Animation is a production of Production I.G (Haikyu!!, Attack on Titan, Ghost in the Shell) and DLE (Dog & Scissors, Skull-face Bookseller Honda-san, Aokana: Four Rhythm Across the Blue). It is directed by Takahiro Ikezoe (episode director for Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, KenIchi: The Mightiest Disciple, Big Windup!) with series composition from Toshiki Inoue (Ushio and Tora, Death Note, Fullmetal Alchemist), the series’ original creator.
The series stars Yuto Uemura (Ahiru no Sora, Run with the Wind, Bungou Stray Dogs) as Gai Ogata, Yuichiro Umehara (GATE, Young Jack Black, Gatchaman Crowds Insight) as Seiya Ichijou and Yuuka Aisaka (Chivalry of a Failed Knight, Sakura Trick, Amagi Brilliant Park) as Sayaka Ogata.
SWORDGAI The Animation will be released on home video.

Funimation Co-Production She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man Arrives This Year
We’re excited to announce the latest Funimation co-production, isekai fantasy She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man, will be arriving later this year!
From KADOKAWA and studio A-CAT (LBX Girls), She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man follows Sakimori Kagami, a young man who’s spent four years perfecting his avatar in the online VRMMORPG Arch Earth Online.
Going by the name Dunbalf, he’s known across the land of this virtual world. But one night before bed, Kagami uses an in-game vanity case that’s about to expire—opting to create his ideal version of a female Dunbalf avatar for fun.
Waking up, he’s surprised to find that he’s now in the body of the avatar he created the night before, and he’ll have to work his way from the bottom up! So he’s a young dude, playing an old dude, who is now playing a young girl—who is still that old dude.
Which brings us to Mira:
Mira is described as a beautiful summoner who identifies herself as Dunbalf’s pupil. And if you’ve been keeping up, you’ll remember that she is Dunbalf, which means her abilities are the same as his. Despite her youthful appearance, she speaks like an old man.
We can’t wait for you to meet more characters from the series! In addition to everything above, our partners at KADOKAWA have also revealed the first key visual for the series!

Based on the light novel series of the same name from Choko Fuji and Hirotsugu Ryuusen, She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man streams exclusively on Funimation later this year.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Sentai Snaps Up Acclaimed “Dororo” Anime
HOUSTON, TX — March 29, 2021 — Sentai announced today that it acquired distribution rights to the critically acclaimed supernatural action series Dororo, based on the manga of the same name by legendary mangaka Osamu Tezuka (Astro Boy, Black Jack). Sentai’s deal includes distribution rights for the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Latin America, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, and Nordic and Scandinavian countries. Sentai will release the series with an all-new English dub.
During the Warring States period, the young thief Dororo encounters the enigmatic “Hyakkimaru,” a strange, sightless boy who wields fearsome prosthetics in place of his missing limbs. Parts of Hyakkimaru’s body, skin and organs were traded to a group of 12 demons by Hyakkimaru’s father in exchange for power and prosperity, but thanks to a kindly medicine man, Hyakkimaru survived his horrifying ordeal. Now he wanders the land in search of his missing body parts, and together he and Dororo will fight to survive in a demon-plagued, dangerous and unforgiving world.
Dororo is animated by Tezuka Productions (Young Black Jack, The Quintessential Quintuplets) and MAPPA (Ushio & Tora, Inuyashiki); it is produced by Twin Engine (Karakuri Circus, Vinland Saga) and directed by Kazuhiro Furuhashi (Hunter x Hunter). Yasuko Kobayashi (Kakegurui, Attack on Titan) provides series composition. The series stars Hiroki Suzuki (Saiyuki musicals, Kamen Rider Decade) as Hyakkimaru, Rio Suzuki (Modest Heroes, Yae no Sakura) as Dororo, Akio Otsuka (Black Jack, Mob Psycho 100) as Jukai and Chie Nakamura (Naruto, Devilman: Crybaby) as Nuinokata.
Sentai is planning to release the series on home video, including Blu-ray and digital sell through, beginning Summer 2021.

Kamen Rider Anime FUUTO PI Announced for 50th Anniversary, Coming to Funimation in 2022
In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the legendary Kamen Rider series, Toei has announced the production of FUUTO PI, a Kamen Rider anime series that we’re excited to announce will stream on Funimation upon its release!
The news was revealed during a special Kamen Rider event highlighting 50 years of the iconic franchise. A historic show for Japanese culture, Kamen Rider still airs every Sunday in Japan. It first debuted on April 3, 1971.
Though the series has seen previous anime adaptations in the form of shorts or OVAs, FUUTO PI will be the first full anime series based on the live-action Kamen Rider program. FUUTO PI first debuted as a manga series in August 2017. The anime is planned for release in Summer 2022.
The story is canonically set after the events of Kamen Rider W (the 11th of ther Heisei era), which aired in 2009. It follows private investigator Shotaro Hidari and the mysterious boy Philip, two strangers who become one Kamen Rider!
FUUTO PI is said to “inherit the detailed background settings and the worldviews” of Kamen Rider W and the manga it is based on. Also revealed was a preview trailer for the series, the FUUTO PI logo and a special illustration commemorating the announcement and anniversary.
