Fans rejoice! Crunchyroll has just announced that they will be simulcasting Sailor Moon Crystal!
Originally announced to be streaming on NicoNico, Sailor Moon Crystal has also been licensed to Crunchyroll! It is slated to start airing online July 5 at 6:00 AM, Pacific Time in the US. Currently, we have no other regions confirmed as having access to the simulcast, though the press release has stated that a list of offical territories will be announced in the future. The classic 90’s Sailor Moon will not be appearing on Crunchyroll. A representative from Crunchyroll confirmed with Emily at Anime North that Viz Media and Hulu currently have an exclusive agreement in regards to the streaming rights of the old show.
For those new to Crunchyroll, you need an account to watch the videos on their site. Free accounts receive ads during the stream, usually at the start, middle, and end of each episode. New simulcasts have a one week delay from their air date before becoming open to free users. Paid members get instant access, and higher quality, no ad streams. An anime streaming membership costs $6.95 per month with a free two week trial.
