TV Tokyo acquired a minority share in Crunchyroll with a $750,000 investment. With the investment, Crunchyroll will also be granted content licenses for TV Tokyo shows, including Naruto Shippuden and Tegami Bachi. Crunchyroll will continue to offer broadcasts one hour after the Japanese airing. However, TV Tokyo will serve as a minority shareholder in the organization. Crunchyroll revealed that they are in negotiations with a group of Japanese book publishers, though they declined to reveal details on this situation.
