During the summer, Takuya Arima receives a package—from his missing father—detailing the existence of parallel universes.

Crunchyroll describes Million Arthur as:
The legendary sword “Excalibur” weighs and measures all. Anyone it deems worthy of gaining tremendous power does so, and inherits the name “Arthur”. However, Excalibur dubs generously. With an overabundance of “worthy” dignitaries, six Arthurs travel to England to defeat the corrupt leadership that plagues their country and the world.
Mix
Odahiro Watanabe (Tokyo Ghoul:re, Soul Buster) was tapped to direct Mix at OLM, with Takao Maki (Basilisk: The Ouka Ninja Scrolls, Laughing Under The Clouds) providing character designs. Atsuhiro Tomioka (Pokémon: Black and White, Ray) is in charge of series composition.

A new generation steps up to the plate in a moving sequel to the 1985 baseball manga, Touch. Stepbrothers Touma and Suichirou are ace players on Meisei High School’s baseball team, and thanks to them, the team may finally have a chance at returning to nationals. But little by little, a tragic legacy unfolds as the stepbrothers follow in their fathers’ footsteps.
