Earlier today, Crunchyroll announced that they will stream three new titles as part of their Spring 2017 simulcast lineup. The company will stream the following:
All three shows started streaming today, in all regions outside of Asia.
The Royal Tutor is based on Higasa Akai’s manga of the same name.

Kimiko Ueno (Kuromajyo-san ga Tōru!!) is in charge of series composition.
Crunchyroll describes the show as:
The “Royal Tutor” is a special tutor carefully selected for the task of teaching the prince, and a title given only to the best teacher in the nation. Heine Wittgenstein has been called to the kingdom of Grannzreich to take on the role of the Royal Tutor. He’s been ordered to raise a worthy candidate for the throne, but he’s greeted with four princes of completely different, unique personalities… all brothers, no less! How will Heine handle these four brothers who were too much for all the previous Royal Tutors, prompting them all to run away from the job?
Akashic Records of Bastard Magic Instructor is based on Taro Hitsuji’s light novel series of the same name. Minato Kazuto is directing the project at at Liden Films. Satoshi Kimura (Terraformars) is serving as character designer on the project, while Touko Machida (Chaika – The Coffin Princess, Wake Up, Girls!) takes charge of series composition and scripts.

A twisted heroic fantasy featuring a magic teacher who hates magic! The story takes place in a world where magic and science have evolved side by side. The Alzano Imperial Magic Academy is located in the southern part of the Alzano Empire, one of the major magical powers, and it is among most prominent magic schools in the world, where students can learn the highest forms of magic. All those who strive to learn magic dream of studying at this academy, and its students as well as its teachers are proud to be a part of its 400-year history. Glenn Radars is a new instructor who has suddenly been appointed to teach part-time at this highly respected academy. He begins by telling his students, “I’ll teach you all what real magic is.” The previously unheard-of lessons of this man known as a good-for-nothing bastard are about to begin.
