Crunchyroll continues to update just one page without notice about new acquisitions and then a tweet so some things get missed along the way. The streaming service has announced their acquisition of the anime adaptation of the As Miss Beelzebub Likes manga by matoba. The first episode was supposed to go live shortly after being announced sometime yesterday evening but has not yet appeared. New episodes are scheduled to debut every Wednesday on the service. Availability for it is pretty good as it’s open to viewers worldwide outside of Asia. Minato Kazuto is directing the series with Yoriko Tomita handling the series composition and scripts. Etusko Sumimoto is on board for the character designs with LIDEN FILMS handling the animation production.
The Japanese cast includes Rikuya Yasuda as Murin, Saori Onishi as Beelzebub, Misaki Kuno as Belphegor, Satoshi Hino as Azazel, Ai Kakuma as Sargatanas, Chinatsu Akasaki as Eurynome, Aoi Yūki as Dantalion, Kazuyuki Okitsu as Molech, and Yoshitsugu Matsuoka as Astaroth.
