FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

THE TO LOVE RU DARKNESS 2 DUB ARRIVES ON HIDIVE AT LONG LAST!

They say that good things come to those who wait. Apparently that’s true, because the To Love Ru Darkness 2 dub is coming to HIDIVE every Wednesday starting September 15, 2021 at 17:00 UTC!

Our fellow space aliens over at Sentai have this to say about the series:

“While intergalactic romance is out of this world, Rito struggles to grasp how he can love more than one girl at once, all while his inability to confess to Haruna causes Devilukean Princess Momo’s Harem Plan to come to a standstill. On top of that, the transforming assassin, Golden Darkness, is still interested in killing him, but she has her own family issues to deal with. Not to mention, a different darkness lurks among the innocent pandemonium.”

Together with Daisuke Jigen, an expert marksman, and Goemon Ishikawa, a master swordsman whose sword can cut anything; Lupin travels across the globe to rob the world of its most valued treasures whilst always staying one step ahead of Inspector Zenigata and his Interpol agents.

WATCH HARELUYA II BOY ON HIDIVE AND ENJOY NOSTALGIC 90S ANIME

The 90s had a bunch of classic anime and other hidden gems. HARELUYA II BOY was one of them. Unfortunately, it’s hard to find nowadays… that is, until now! Join us every Thursday starting December 2, 2021 at 17:00 UTC as HIDIVE brings you one subbed episode of HARELUYA II BOY per week!

Our fellow delinquents over at Sentai have this to say about the series:

“Hareluya Hibino has one ambition in life: to conquer the entire world! Despite his tough exterior, he’s not a bad person, and when push comes to shove, he’ll do his best to help those in need. Together with aspiring painter Kiyoshiro, Hareluya will take on whatever curveballs life may throw his way.”

WHERE CAN YOU WATCH GIRLS UND PANZER DAS FINALE PART 1 ONLINE? THE ANSWER IS HIDIVE

All good things must come to an end, and that includes Girls und Panzer. Fortunately for all of us, we can begin to bid the series a fond farewell on Monday, December 13, 2021 at 17:00 UTC when we can all watch Girls und Panzer das Finale - Part 1 on HIDIVE!

Our fellow tank enthusiasts over at Sentai have this to say about the series:

“Too much tankery and not enough studying for her entrance exams has landed Momo in the hot seat! Luckily her friends won’t let her flunk out without a fight, and they’ve hatched a foxy plan to put her back on top. Miho’s stepping down to let Momo take up the mantle of commander, because if she can lead the team to victory in the Continuous Cup, Momo can retake her exams. The stakes have never been higher for the team as they fight for tank supremacy both on and off the combat field!”
