Sony's Crunchyroll online store dropped physical manga and light novels during a fresh store update. The change ruined the physical media lineup 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 unveils an October 2026 broadcast date plus the opening theme for the show. In a further update, the Crunchyroll exclusive Chainsaw Man collection officially arrives on August 25. Also, a mid-season trailer for the Thunder 3 anime brings action downtown.
