The folks at Funimation have brought out their slate of December titles and it’s a light month overall in terms of new releases, which isn’t a surprise as retailers dislike having to add a lot of new stock while trying to deal with the Christmas holiday. And then having inventory just after the holiday as well. What we have from Funimation and the Crunchyroll titles they distribute are a couple of new releases, some stuff that was delayed a few months, and a lot of priced-down properties that make for easy presents to pick up for the anime fan in your life.
