Was the first one on CR? I don't remember watching it there... I guess that means it was either delayed or translated annoyingly. Hopefully neither is the case this time.

First season was uploaded on CR after AoA obtained the rights to it. It was originally streamed on ANN on a week's delay (though after ep. 2 leaked, it was delayed for a month or so). This falls under the Fate/Zero, Nisemonogatari, Sword Art Online, OreShura timeslot/translation timing, so we should see it stream at 13:00 EST. Translators vary, so I can't comment on that. I recall Mazui handling fansubs of the first season, but I can't remember that for 100% though.

Oh right that amusing debacle. Yeah definitely did not watch it on ANN.

About Mazui, sounds right. Which means I'm amply covered if CR has issues. But CR might be fine, since Sat 4/06 is when it starts in Japan too - so no delays at all (less than a day and not pushed across the weekend borderline to Monday = no delay as I far as I'm concerned). Now it's just a matter of seeing how they translate it.

That was quick and early, as in a month before the start of the season. I'll definitely be watching this.

TBS English promo flyer for My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU (also known as Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatteiru. or Oregairu). The English translation just seems weird to me.

This one is looking like a Sentai Filmworks license and probable streaming/simulcast via TAN.

I wonder if Space Battleship Yamato 2199 will be eligible for a simulcast given the fact it starts out as theatrical OVAs.

This and Photo Kano are looking that way. If so, it looks like I will probably wait until June to watch it much like what I am doing with Tamako Market.
