Crunchyroll revealed at the Anime Frontier event on Saturday that it will stream the following anime in 2023:
Crunchyroll will stream Handyman Saitō in Another World in January worldwide excluding Asia, and it describes the series:
Handyman Saito has never been anyone special. All his life, he’s had average
grades, ordinary athletic skill, a commonplace job… But his unremarkable path
takes a turn when he wakes up in another world. Here, warriors, wizards, and
elves accompany him on quests delving deep into dungeons, and Saito
realizes for the first time what it’s like to be needed. After all, who other than
the handyman could be trusted to open locked treasure chests or to repair his
allies’ equipment? Beginning with a simple “thank you,” this is the story of an
ordinary person’s fulfilling life.
Crunchyroll will stream The Legendary Hero is Dead! in April 2023 worldwide except in Asia, and it describes the series.
Far to the north of the world lies Hell’s Gate, a portal formerly used by the
Demon Lord to invade the human realm. Thanks to the legendary hero Shion
Bladearts, wielder of Excalibur, and his loyal band of companions, the Gate was
sealed off and the demonic threat was vanquished.Unfortunately, the seal was incomplete and has begun to weaken, allowing
the demons to once again begin their attack. Worried about the safety of his
village, selfish and perverted farmer Touka Scott digs pitfalls to defend against
the demons. But fear not, for Shion is on his way to reseal Hell’s Gate and save
humanity!Or at least he was, because the legendary hero is dead, having fallen into one
of the pitfalls Touka dug. Luckily, dealing with the dead is the specialty of
necromancer Anri Haynesworth. While she can’t revive him, Anri can at least
salvage their quest by forcing Touka’s soul into Shion’s rotting body and
dragging him along to Hell’s Gate in Shion’s place. Not wanting to be left
behind, Touka’s childhood friend Yuna Yunis tags along. Together, the three of
them set out as what just might be the most unsuitable party to ever try to
save the world!
Crunchyroll will stream Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill in January worldwide outside of Asia, and it describes the series:
Mukoda Tsuyoshi, an ordinary salaryman, is suddenly transported to another
world one day. The unique skill he gains upon arrival in this world is the
seemingly useless “Online Grocery.” Mukoda is discouraged at first, but the
modern foods he’s able to bring to his new world using this skill prove to have
some unbelievable effects!

race. However, for the 99th sacrifice, the human girl brought to the capital,
Sariphi, intrigues the Beast King. In fact she isn’t afraid of him or any other
beast and even accepts her death without begging or crying as she has

beasts.
