Crunchyroll quietly added three anime titles to its streaming library on June 20, including MAPPA's Zombie Land Saga film, Kyoto Animation's Dragon Maid film, and the Given OVA.
Crunchyroll added three titles to its streaming library on June 20 in a surprise shadowdrop: MAPPA's Zombie Land Saga: Yumeginga Paradise film, Kyoto Animation's Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: A Lonely Dragon Wants to be Loved film, and the Given: Moments in Life OVA.
The Zombie Land Saga film, directed by Takafumi Ishida and Takeru Satō with music by Yasuharu Takanashi, originally premiered in Japanese theaters on October 24, 2025. Produced by MAPPA, the movie follows the undead idol group Franchouchou into an alien invasion storyline, showcasing what many fans have praised as some of the studio's strongest animation work alongside an energetic soundtrack. The film earned approximately ¥97.3 million (roughly $638,800) during its opening weekend in Japan.
An English-dubbed theatrical screening was held in North America on January 19, 2026, giving Western audiences their first taste of the film before its digital arrival. The movie is now available to stream on Crunchyroll, bringing the beloved franchise's theatrical chapter to a global audience less than eight months after its Japanese debut.
Kyoto Animation's Dragon Maid film marks the franchise's first new project in four years. Directed by Tatsuya Ishihara, the movie opened across 199 theaters in Japan on June 27, 2025, and centers on fan-favorite character Kanna in a story about loneliness and connection. The Japanese voice cast includes returning stars Mutsumi Tamura, Yūki Kuwahara, and Maria Naganawa, with Fumihiko Tachiki and Nobunaga Shimazaki joining in new roles.
North American audiences previously had access to a subtitled theatrical screening on October 20, 2025. The film's arrival on Crunchyroll now makes it widely accessible for the first time outside of those limited screenings, and it arrives carrying the visual polish that Kyoto Animation is known for.
Rounding out the trio is Given: Moments in Life, an OVA that originally shipped in October 2025 as part of a limited-edition compiled book release. The OVA consists of a collection of short stories featuring the series' main characters, offering fans of the music-driven romance franchise additional vignettes that expand on the emotional arcs established in the anime and films. Its arrival on Crunchyroll marks the first time the OVA has been widely available outside of the physical limited-edition bundle.
All three titles arrived without major promotional fanfare, appearing on the platform as shadowdrops rather than through a traditional announcement cycle. The relatively quick turnaround from theatrical release to streaming availability under a year for both films reflects an accelerating trend in anime licensing, where the gap between Japanese theatrical premieres and global digital distribution continues to shrink.
Fans of Zombie Land Saga, Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid, and Given can now stream all three titles on Crunchyroll. The additions bolster the platform's film catalog during a summer already packed with new seasonal anime.
