HIDIVE Crams with “We Never Learn!: BOKUBEN” Season 2

HOUSTON, TX, October 4, 2019 – HIDIVE announced today that it acquired streaming rights to the romcom anime series We Never Learn!: BOKUBEN Season 2 for audiences in North America. Fans can catch the premiere on Saturday, October 5, 2019 at 17:00 UTC and stream new episodes on subsequent Saturdays.

Nariyuki Yuiga needs a scholarship, and to get it, he’ll have to provide “private lessons” to three unteachable girls who need help with their worst subjects! The pressure mounts as college application deadlines near. Now the reluctant tutor must quickly make an art-lover adore mathematics, turn a literary genius into a bonafide scientist, and transform a top-tier athlete into… a student who can pass even a single class? Yeah, turns out she’s bad at everything aside from sports. Looks like Nariyuki really has his work cut out for him, so it’s time to hit the books in We Never Learn!: BOKUBEN Season 2!

We Never Learn!: BOKUBEN Season 2 is directed by Yoshiaki Iwasaki (Hayate the Combat Butler, The Familiar of Zero, Love Hina) with animation produced by ARVO ANIMATION and Studio SILVER. The Japanese voice cast stars Ryota Osaka (Gatchaman Crowds, Love and Lies, Your Lie in April) as Nariyuki Yuiga, Haruka Shiraishi (Himouto! Umaru-chan, ORESUKI Are you the one who loves me?, Golden Kamuy) as Fumino Furuhashi, Lynn (The Girl in Twilight, Just Because!, Monthly Girls’ Nozaki-kun) as Mafuyu Kirisu, Sayumi Suzushiro (Do You Love Your Mom and Her Two-Hit Multi-Target Attacks?, Kaguya-sama: Love is War, High Score Girl) as Uruka Takemoto and Miyu Tomita (Himouto! Umaru-chan, MADE IN ABYSS, The Magnificent KOTOBUKI) as Rizu Ogata. Additionally, fans will be able to catch up on the first season of We Never Learn: BOKUBEN when the series comes to HIDIVE.

“CHIDORI RSC” SIMULCASTS ON HIDIVE IN OCTOBER

It’s time to save a school club from disbandment and make some new friends along the way. We can’t help but admire Hikari’s dedication to her club, so stay tuned every Sunday starting October 13, 2019, at 15:00 UTC when HIDIVE brings you Chidori RSC!

Our fellow club members over at Sentai Filmworks have this to say about the series:

“Crackshot Hikari Kokura has a passion for beam rifle shooting! Beam rifles fire rays of light at an electronic target, but don’t be fooled by the rifle’s light weight; hitting one’s target is no easy feat. To hone her skills and become the best beam rifler around, Hikari enrolls at Chidori High School to join its shooting club, but it turns out the club has been disbanded due to lack of interest! If she can’t find enough members to reform the club, she’ll have to kiss her dreams of being the best markswoman around goodbye… so it’s a good thing Hikari has no intention of throwing away her shot just yet.”

But we haven’t yet added the third caustic ingredient! Bright and cheery Yui Yuigahama needs the Service Club’s help to bake cookies. It could be a recipe for romance. It could just as easily end in a nuclear meltdown! Get ready for romantic comedy gone totally wrong as the barrage à trois of the Service Club is unleashed!”

My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU TOO!

“A new season brings a whole new set of challenges for Yukino, Yui and Hachiman. As the Service Club steps back into high gear, the club returns to their mission of helping the student body with their problems. Except they’ve got their own issues.

To begin with, while Arashi may only look a few years older than Yasaka, she’s actually closer in age to his granddad! How is that possible? It seems that Arashi’s not exactly human anymore, and besides being a ghost from 1945, she has an important mission that revolves around her ability to travel in time! Since Arashi can only travel temporally if she’s accompanied by a living being from her current present, guess who’s about to become her partner in paradoxity? It’s time for everything to go a little crazy in NATSU NO ARASHI!”

“SEITOKAI YAKUINDOMO” SEASON 1 IS COMING TO HIDIVE

A certain someone, who shall remain nameless, told us you like dirty jokes. We thought long and hard about it and decided you’d want to know that Seitokai Yakuindomo , the euphemism-filled comedy, is smashing into HIDIVE. Tune in Tuesday, December 10, 2019, at 17:00 UTC as we release 2 subbed episodes per week for the first season!

Our fellow student council members over at Sentai Filmworks have this to say about the series:

“All Takatoshi wanted was to find a school closer to home, and it was only coincidence that the all-girl Ousai Private Academy became co-ed his freshman year. However, he quickly finds himself accosted by the student council and drafted into their ranks. Between the sex-obsessed president and secretary, Shino and Aria, and the rage-prone treasurer, Suzu, Takatoshi must now navigate a minefield of high school hormones, double entendres and innuendos!”
