Anime app Crunchyroll is now available for Wii U

A gift for the Wii U-boos

Crunchyroll is pretty cool, right? I’ll admit: I don’t really know from experience. The only anime stuff I have watched lately have been Miyazaki films and the Professor Layton anime. But following people like our former Editor-in-Chief Dale North leads me to believe that Crunchyroll is the way to go for watching anime outside of Japan.

Starting today, Crunchyroll is available for the Wii U. Using it requires a premium Crunchyroll membership, which runs about $12 per month. Any new members wanting to dip his toes into the cartoon waters can get a free 14-day membership through the Wii U app.
