We’re excited to announce that our new series Dimension W will broadcast on Adult Swim’s Toonami schedule beginning Saturday, February 27, 2016. English dub episodes of the new anime series will air during the Toonami block each Saturday night at 12:30AM Eastern. Each dub episode will be available exclusively on Adult Swim for two-weeks before it is available for streaming on Funimation.com.
We’re also releasing a bi-weekly Production Diary on YouTube available here which features behind-the-scenes videos on the creation of Dimension W. New simulcast Japanese subtitled episodes of the series stream at 9:00 a.m. on Saturdays at FunimationNow and the Hulu streaming services.
Synopsis:
In the year 2071, the world’s energy problems seem solved by a network of cross-dimensional electric-field inductors- “coils” -that extract energy from a seemingly infinite source. That source is the W dimension, a fourth plane that exists beyond the X, Y, and Z dimensions.
In this world, unofficial “illegal” coils harness powers that the police can’t hope to counter. Dealing with these coils is the job of coil-hating repo man Kyoma, whose run-in with the unique coil android Mira leads the two to form a reluctant partnership.

I am so excited now!!!
You mean streams at 9:00 a.m. on Sundays.
I already liked the subs but this is going to be epic!
Holy…cow. This is going to be…wait for it. LEGENDARY.
YESS!!! Can’t wait!!
Pro=It is gonna get a more mainstream audience
Con=I didn’t get to watch it this week like the rest of the new broadcast dubs
So awesome funimation!
Funimation is going for lockdown on the Toonami block again :O Kai, OP, Samurai, and now Dimension W, Sentai will only have Parasyte, Viz will only have Naruto, and Aniplex will only have Kill La Kill. I have no issue with this but hopefully both Aniplex and Sentai stay represented on the block. Funimation has and will always be my favorite dubbing company but i have grown soft for these other ones over the past few years 😀
These are times I wish i had cable instead of just my ps4/internet so i can watch along with the show. ;-;
go here every Saturday and watch the stream live: http://watchtoonamionline.wix.com/watchtoonamilivefree
This is such a good season of dubs. I am glad to see that Funimation is able to keep dubbing even though there is not as much television air time for them.
Funimation doesn’t dub in order to try and get their shows on tv.
Well at least this is better then Space Dandy, where it took like 2 years to finally get to Canadian viewers; So Props on that Funimation :+1:
Excited to see a good show not only get dubbed but to be put out on Toonami so fast. Can’t wait to see it air.
That explains why there wasn’t much news about the dub schedule even though this is a co-production. I’m a bit bummed that we’ll have to wait a couple more weeks for the dub to start, but getting it on Toonami is a pretty big deal.
Alright, I’m going to watch it on Toonami. I hope this anime has more California voice actors like Bryce Papenbrook, Matthew Mercer, etc. in the other episodes.
I thought the point of working with the anime producer was to get better subs and dubs faster. Over the past year the delay between sub and dub started at 3 weeks, than 4 weeks, now two months.
Also funimation ran a poll earlier to pick the Wednesday dub. I know fetal like I have been lied to.
This from a person who watch toonami when the host was a Space Ghost character.
They should put Danganronpa: The Animation on Toonami.
Maybe if more people had voted for this to go on DubbleTalk, this would have been dubbed on the site already; instead, we have a show about candy on DubbleTalk. :-/
