That Winter season was insanity, such to the extent that some of our staff are taking a seasonal hiatus or are in fact still continuing to catch up on their workload. It’ll be a while before we pull that stunt again.
Another seasonal recruitment shout-out here, so welcome, in no particular order, to: Reference4, Pyros, KoolKidsK, Scyrous, tabaha, and also our many Typesetting interns who are hopefully going to pass their tests. I hope they all enjoy their time with us.
With that handled, it’s time to move to our Spring 2019 picks. Our first show of Spring 2019 will be Hitoribocchi no Marumaru Seikatsu. We’ve been looking at this show for a while, and, like Kaguya, our Typesetter, iFanz, has been shilling it to us. Looks like fun, but hopefully, it’ll be a little less insane than his last recommendation!
The second project probably doesn’t surprise anyone who knows GJM well enough. We’ll be picking up Fairy Gone and hoping P.A. Works can pull off original Action shows. We shall remain cautiously optimistic.
Yes, this is a two-show season with very little chance of surprise pickups. For both mental and physical health reasons, a slow-down is wise.
While we recently made an announcement on our group’s Discord server regarding our recruitment needs, I would like to reiterate it on a blog post, also. We’re currently searching for additional Timers and Encoders, and another Translator/TLC, to help cover our upcoming and backlog projects. You can use the form in the menu bar above or contact us via IRC or Discord to apply to work with us.
We look forward to another productive season providing high-quality releases for the enjoyment of all. Thanks for choosing GJM, and for continuing to support us!
This season sucks tbh.
At least Funi’s dying. :3

Funi was promoting this for half a year, and now they don’t have it.
lmao
Uh, Funimation very much did get Fruits Basket. The dub for it was confirmed a while ago.

They don’t have subs.
Funi stopped doing subs
Don’t worry, Bocchi is not insane. It’s just absolutely wholesome.
Damn!, I wish I always had this aim… Anyways, thanks for the news and everything, guys… Cheers!
Just want to ask if Hitoribocchi no Marumaru Seikatsu is joint with DameDesuYo? Coz they seem to be doing this too
It isn’t.
It seems like they’re doing a prescreening at a cinema for the first 2 episodes of Fairy Gone, so I’ll wait for you guys to finish up both episodes before starting it. Thanks in advance.
Made you a couple of banners for this season as well, but the banner post refuses to accept my comment with them.

What about backlog from previous season? Just asking
Everything is being worked on.
Thanks!
Looks like the (Gunjou no Magmel) doesn’t have good subtitles yet, will you give it a look?
We don’t have staff available for any shows other than the teams we’ve set up already for various projects.
