Where to Watch Guilty Crown in the UK

Japanese television has a knack for doing more with less, and Guilty Crown is a prime example. It's currently available in Australia on Crunchyroll and Crunchyroll Amazon Channel, and in the US on Crunchyroll and Crunchyroll Amazon Channel, so there's no reason to keep putting it off. A 7/10 rating means the audience agrees.

Guilty Crown follows a path that stands out in a crowded field. The story revolves around Shu Ouma, a high school boy who inadvertently obtains an ability called "The Power of the Kings" that enables him to draw out items called "Voids" from other people. He is then thrown into the conflict between a resistance group called Funeral Parlor which aims to restore Japan's independence from a quasi-governmental organization known as the GHQ. In the process, Shu has to deal with the burden his ability puts on his shoulders and the horrific mystery of his past. Kosuke Takaguchi and Ai Kayano lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It aired in 2011–2012.

Perfect for late-night viewing or a proper weekend binge. The kind of show that makes you feel the absence when it ends.
