Happy Weekend Everyone! As you start planning what will be happening over the next few days, Australian anime publisher Madman Entertainment is offering a strong argument to perch yourself in front of a computer, television or smart device to binge some new anime. Over the last two days, many new series have become available to Premium subscribers of their AnimeLab video-on-demand streaming service. A full list of these can be found at the bottom of this post. Simulcast episodes will be available for free (ad-supported) subscribers one week after they originally stream on the service – meaning next weekend might be your binge weekend.

This selection of simulcasts follows the first episodes of ID: Invaded, Darwin’s Game and Magica Record going live in recent days. It may be a challenge deciding what to watch. Personally I am going to begin by diving into Toilet-bound Hanako-kun, Uchitama and Infinite Dendrogram based off the descriptions alone.

AnimeLab is an online anime streaming service managed by Madman Entertainment. It’s accessible only to those residing in Australia and New Zealand and offers a basic service free with video quality, dub and availability timeframe limitations. For those looking for access to no simulcast delays, no ads, full back-catalogue access and high definition video can take advantage of a premium subscription membership for $7.95AUD/month or $79.50AUD/year.
