passage through movie theaters, the story of the "Bomb Girl" finally
has a date to reach homes. The Crunchyroll platform confirmed
on Tuesday that it will add the Chainsaw Man: Reze Arc movie (Chainsaw

year. The streaming service will offer the film both in its subtitled and
dubbed versions.

important to note that Sony Pictures Entertainment handled

a resounding commercial success in Japan, where it dominated the box office
since its debut at the end of last year.
