RetroCrush Adds Magic Knight Rayearth, Sherlock Hound, Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland Anime

Digital Media Rights' RetroCrush streaming service revealed on Friday that it has added the following anime on its service:

• Magic Knight Rayearth (both seasons)
• Sherlock Hound
• Little Nemo - Adventures in Slumberland

Magic Knight Rayearth and Sherlock Hound are streaming in Japanese with English subtitles and with English dubs. Little Nemo - Adventures in Slumberland is streaming in English.

RetroCrush is a free, ad-supported video-on-demand service available in the United States and Canada. The service has apps on iOS, Android, Amazon Fire TV, Roku, Apple TV, and smart TVs, in addition to being available on browsers. The service launched in March 2020. A free ad-supported television (FAST) version of RetroCrush launched through the STIRR streaming service in July 2020.

Digital Media Rights stated to ANN that its goal with the streaming service is to "serve as a community built for the consumption and discussion of the Golden Age of Japanese animation, (and some not so retro), from the perspectives of pop culture, fandom, art, internet memes & more." The service plans to include a library of content that "hasn't had proper streaming releases outside of Japan." RetroCrush's streaming partners include Discotek Media, TMS, NHK, Studio Pierrot, AMG, Happinet, and Right Stuf among others.

Cinedigm acquired Digital Media Rights (DMR), the parent company of the RetroCrush, AsianCrush, and Midnight Pulp streaming services, in January 2022.
