Crunchyroll and WEBTOON Team Up to Co-Produce New Animated Content

[May_Lily]

Earlier today Cruncyroll and a digital webcomics publisher known as WEBTOON have announced that they have formed a partnership that aims to both develop and co-produce original animated content base on the storied publish on WEBTOONS.

For me I am quite looking forward to what this partnership will bring. I recall thinking a bit Of the possibility of some of the stories seen in WEBTOONS get their own animated adaptation, and in fact earlier this year there was one story in particular from WEBTOON titled My Giant Nerd Boyfriend by fishball that has gotten an animated adaptation that you can watch on WEBTOON’s youtube page.

This is actually really interesting. Would love to see Space Boy and Hooky done up.

Don't get your hopes up too much.

The person who runs crunchroll's Elation studios, is the head of WIA, Magaret Dean. She's a fairly unknown scam artist and crook that scams Female Animators by promising to help them get jobs, but then pocketing their contribution money for her pet projects.


The more people who know that she's a criminal nut job, the better.

I want Sweet Home and HIVE to get adaptations tho reading the above comment isn't lifting my hopes.

Oh god no, this can't be good.

Stop, it's not good for my health!

Kadokawa-sama! The little American studio is bullying me!

nope? I just want them to upload "Why did you come to Japan" show frequently rather than this.

Hells yes! Webtoon has alot of good stories that needs the tender love of a anime setup.
