Anime

[edit]
Main article: List of Future Card Buddyfight episodes

The TV animation was released in Japan on TV Aichi on January 4, 2014,[16] with the animation done by OLM, Inc. Bushiroad simulcasts an English dub in Singapore, Malaysia, and in North America through YouTube, Hulu, and Crunchyroll.[17][18] Canada's Teletoon aired the English dub from January 8, 2015, to September 7, 2015.[19] It returned to Teletoon from October 2015 to February 2016. As with their first series, Cardfight!! Vanguard, Bushiroad is airing the series in English on YouTube and Hulu. As of episode 17, the dub is also airing on Crunchyroll. The English airings are delayed from the Japanese airings by a few hours and are considered the same day simulcast, but due to the time difference between Japan and the States, the English airdate ends up being a day ahead of the Japanese airing. The English dub for Hundred went on a hiatus on October 2, 2015.
