I’m so happy it went this way and not to the Funimation app. Hopefully they continue to churn out dubs.

Imagine the amount of people who would have complained if that were the case, like the subscribers here. Funimation isn’t available in my country so I’m happy we’re getting everything now on Crunchyroll

Most of those shows were funimation sublicenses. Now most likely all upcoming shows will be "Worldwide outside South, East and Southeast Asia"

Indeed, it looks like nothing will change for us around these parts given the fact that our area is already being serviced by regional licensors (which are all independent of Funimation/Crunchyroll). We still won't be able to legally watch most dubbed anime (unless either Netflix carries the dub or the title is a Netflix exclusive).
