The Winter 2021 anime season is starting to wrap up and the Spring 2021 season is coming very soon. Over the past year Crunchyroll had announced a couple of titles that would join their Spring 2021 line-up, either as a co-production or for regular streaming. Now much like Funimation, they have officially revealed their large batch of anime for the new season.
Many of these titles will also stream exclusively on their platform. This line-up will have a couple more titles added down the line, given that a majority have already been revealed!
This article has been updated as of Wednesday 7th April 2021 with additional links to their respective show pages and extended plot synopsis where available.
