Crunchyroll's Ani-May celebration is almost here, and it's set to be a thrilling month for fans of cult Japanese releases. Throughout May, Crunchyroll Game Vault will treat subscribers to a new game release every week, adding even more value to an already robust service.

The festivities kick off on April 30th with the highly anticipated arrival of Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth, a beloved classic from Square Enix. In this enhanced version, players will embody the spirit guardian Lenneth, embarking on a quest to recruit fallen heroes for the ultimate showdown of Ragnarok, all set within a beautifully crafted world inspired by Norse mythology.

But the excitement doesn't stop there. May's lineup includes a diverse range of titles to cater to various tastes. Horror RPG enthusiasts can dive into the cult-classic Corpse Party, while fans of slice-of-life adventures will enjoy Shin Chan: Shiro and the Coal Town. Survival horror aficionados have something to look forward to as well, with White Day making its debut on mobile.
