# +Ultra

+Ultra (プラス・ウルトラ, Purasu Urutora, pronounced Plus Ultra) is a Japanese programming block on Fuji TV dedicated to anime, and is broadcast on Wednesday nights at 24:55 to 25:25 (effectively Thursday mornings at 12:55 to 1:25 a.m.) JST.

## History

The block was announced on March 8, 2018, and premiered on October 18 of the same year with its first anime line-up being Ingress: The Animation. According to Fuji TV producer Mori Akitoshi, the programming block is kind of a brother to the already established noitaminA block, due to it being a unique vision of an anime block, much like itself. In the announcement, Akitoshi mentioned that the block was made due to the diversification of viewing media with anime being shared around the world via streaming services, which is why the block is based on the concept of spreading anime culture overseas with high-quality animation for the world.

### Crunchyroll Co-productions

On September 23, 2021, Crunchyroll, Slow Curve, and Fuji TV announced the beginning of a partnership to co-produce new anime projects, with the first set to launch in April 2022. The titles will air in Japan exclusively on +Ultra, and on Crunchyroll worldwide outside of Asia. Among the first projects announced were Polygon Pictures's produced shows of Gorō Taniguchi's Estab-Life, as well as Tsutomu Nihei's Kaina of the Great Snow Sea, with the Crunchyroll and Fuji TV co-produced Muv-Luv Alternative announced ahead of the partnership.
