Aniplex of America announced today at their industry panel at A-Kon (Fort Worth, TX) that they will be producing the English dub of Fate/Grand Order -First Order – and premiering it exclusively at Anime Expo in Los Angeles this summer.

Fate/Grand Order – First Order – is the anime adaptation of Fate/Grand Order, a mobile RPG developed by DELiGHTWORKS, Inc. and based on the Fate series by Kinoko Nasu and TYPEMOON.

About Fate/Grand Order – First Order -:
The year is AD 2017
The last era in which magecraft still thrived.

The Chaldea Security Organization was founded to focus on preserving the continuation of human history. They observe a world which magecraft couldn’t observe and science couldn’t measure all to prevent the certain extinction of humanity. But one day, the future that Chaldea continued to observe disappears and humanity’s extinction in 2019 becomes clear. Rather, it had already happened.

The cause seems to be related to Fuyuki, a provincial town in Japan, in the year AD 2004. There, an “unobservable region” that had not existed before appears.

Based on the assumption that Fuyuki is the reason for humanity’s extinction, Chaldea issues an order
to explore, investigate, and possibly destroy this singularity – a quest for the Holy Grail: the Grand
Order.


Aniplex has also announced that Hulu has acquired the streaming rights to English Dub adaptations of such anime as Erased, Charlotte, and Asterisk War more details are expected to be announced in the coming months.

Update: Erased and Charlotte have started streaming on Hulu as of July 1st.
