Crunchyroll announced today that they have a very special gift for anime fans this week! On Saturday, December 26, they will have episodes 6-12 of Onyx Equinox available in all languages, including English dubs!
They are doing this so that all fans can enjoy the entire season over the duration of their winter break. In addition to the English dub, the episodes will also be available in Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, French, and German dubs as well.
Crunchyroll describes the anime as follows:
Onyx Equinox follows Izel, an Aztec boy who is saved from death by the gods and forced to act as “humanity’s champion” in a journey that takes him across ancient Mesoamerica. In the series so far, the journey to save humanity has not been easy for Izel and his friends Yaotl, a jaguar-like emissary of Tezcatlipoca, the powerful warrior Zyanya, the twins Yun and K’in, and the priestess Xanastaku.
The episodes dropping on 12/26 will reveal the identity of a few mysterious characters and follow Izel and his friends as danger closes in all around them on their quest to close the five gates of the Underworld in order to fulfill the bet set in motion by Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatlipoca.
Fans interested in diving even deeper into the series can catch the “Onyx Equinox” companion podcast hosted by creator and showrunner Sofia Alexander. Each episode features a mix of creative staff every week with new episodes premiering through February, as Sofia and the team discuss the inspiration and creative process behind each episode.
