Beginning later this year, passengers on Delta Air Lines will find anime titles on 169,000 seatback screens. In total, there will be a combination of 50,000 episodes and movies to choose from.
“There is nothing better on a long flight than immersing yourself in the rich storytelling and world-building of anime. Fans can go deep on one series or sample one episode of many series – from action to adventure, romance, and more. And when they get hooked, they can continue their experience on the Crunchyroll app,” Rahul Purini, President of Crunchyroll, said in a statement to TheWrap. “We are excited to share what we love with Delta passengers and go to new heights together.”
“At Delta, we see every flight as an opportunity for discovery,” said Julieta McCurry, Delta V.P. of In-Flight Entertainment and Connectivity. “Whether you’re diving into the anime genre for the first time or continuing a favorite series, bringing Crunchyroll to Delta gives our customers access to a world of storytelling while onboard and beyond. It’s part of Delta’s commitment to delivering industry-leading entertainment that reflects the passions and interests of our customers.”
SkyMiles members will also be able to log in via Delta Sync Wi-Fi and find special offers, including a 24-hour free trial of Crunchyroll that they can use on their flight or at a later date.
