Another day, another Sentai Filmworks license. I wonder what titles are left to license for either them or Crunchyroll.

Boy, is it great to see Sentai licensing more than a few simulcasts per season again, especially since they're picking up a wide variety of shows. This seems like one of those shows Crunchyroll would license and then not advertise in any way (Birdie Wing, et al.), whereas Sentai gives everything they have a home video release, those lovable scamps.

Extreme Hearts, KJ Files, Isekai Yakkyoku and 1 or 2 shorts as far as I know.

Not exactly "everything", unfortunately. A bunch of those old Tatsunoko shows (Gold Lightan, Judo Boy, Urashiman, Mechadoc, etc.) never saw home video releases & have since left Hidive, while there are still two live-action shows (Lone Wolf & Cub TV and Samurai Punisher) that have been Hidive-only for literally years.

Also Overlord season 4, which for some reason Crunchyroll/Funimation still hasn't confirmed is coming back.

Weirdly they have also licensed the Gunbuster Movie, but if I recall correctly someone else has licensed the OVA series and is dubbing it.

I might be mistaken here, but in the past, hasn't Funimation announced the license a show only days before it airs.

Sometimes even the day of airing for less popular shows like Yami Shibai seasons.
