With two episodes out so far for the Yu-No series as part of the spring 2019 season, Funimation is doing some additional promotion for it. Usually, it takes a bit to get some of these out but they’ve got the opening sequence for the show now streaming, making it easy to share and show off both the designs and the music for it which are definitely good hooks.
