Sony's Crunchyroll online store pulled physical manga and light novels amid a fresh store update. The change stripped the physical media selection at Sony's Crunchyroll online store, leaving the selection even weaker than fans feared.
Crunchyroll also released a trailer for Dark Machine The Animation. The trailer displays an October 2026 broadcast date plus the opening theme for the project. In another update, the Crunchyroll exclusive Chainsaw Man collection officially drops on August 25. Next, a mid-season clip for the Thunder 3 anime takes action downtown.
