Funimation’s UK streaming service continues to grow new shows on it and one of the recent quieter additions is that of C³ -Cube x Cursed x Curious. It’s not one you can find by searching because of the name of the show being so short and kind of awkward, but it arrived there recently and comes after Funimation brought out the series on home video in the US and previously bringing it back out for streaming on their main site. The home video release in the US was a $49.99 combo pack edition that’s Japanese-language only with English subtitles.
Based on the light novel series by Minase Hazuki, the series was directed by Shin Oonuma with scripts and series composition by Michiko Yokote.Miwa Oshima handled the character designs and the series was animated at Silver Link.

Plot concept: Haruaki Yachi has seen his fair share of curses, but despite his familiarity, even Haruaki is out of his element when his father mails him a cursed torture cube with the humanoid figure of a cute young girl named Fear Kubrick (no relation). Now, he’s got to help her break her curse and leave behind her homicidal past before dangerous forces get ahold of her deadly powers. Sassy loudmouth Fear has a hard time keeping a low profile, but with the help of Haruaki’s other cursed comrades, maybe this cubed cutie can find her place in the human world—IF she can break her curse.
