Crunchyroll has done a joint pact with Sony Pictures Entertainment Japan and Japanese pay TV broadcaster WOWOW to increase Crunchyroll’s original anime series output.
Series produced under the pact will broadcast and stream on WOWOW in Japan, while launching on Crunchyroll in more than 200 other countries and territories where the platform is active.
The first joint project will be the fantasy adventure series “Bye Bye, Earth” based on the best-selling 2000 Japanese novel by Tow Ubukata.
The story is set on an Earth where all people take the form of animals. Bell is the only girl in the world without the characteristics of animals and sets out to discover if there are other beings like her – finding adventures and conflicts along the way.
