Crunchyroll Streaming Lilpri

Crunchyroll has begun its subtitled simulcast of the current “Spellbound! Magical Princess Lil’ Pri” (Hime Chen! Otogi Chikku Idol Lilpri) television anime series. New weekly episodes starting with episode 9, along with episodes 1-3, will be available to subscribers in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central and South America, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Iceland, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa one hour after Japanese broadcast. Episodes will be accessible for free to all viewers one week after Japanese broadcast.

Honestly, I can’t envision this series developing much of a following outside of Japan, but I am glad to see shows like this, which expand the scope of anime available for foreigners, officially distributed in America.
