Funimation’s updated what they have on the Hulu service for the Code:Breaker anime series as most of it went off-sevice awhile ago and all that’s been on there were the last seven episode sof the show in its original Japanese language form with English subtitles. Now, the first six episodes have been added so you can check out the show and the first two episodes have been added in dubbed form as well. With a new priced-down home video release coming up in July, it’s a good time to sample. Those that subscribe to Hulu get to watch this show on their TV and mobile devices.

Check out our thoughts on the series here.

The original manga series comes from creator Akimine Kamijyo with the anime adaptation directed by Yasuhiro Irie for studio Kinema Citrus. The manga series began back in 2008 and completed in 2013 with at total of twenty-six volumes.

Directed by Colleen Clinkenbeard, it stars Jackie Ross, Micah Solusod, Jād Saxton, Aaron Roberts, Lydia Mackay, Ben Phillips, David Matranga, Todd Haberkorn, Sonny Strait, Jerry Jewell, Morgan Garrett, Cherami Leigh, Eric Vale, Jessica Cavanagh and J. Michael Tatum.

Plot concept: Rei Ogami doesn’t have a problem with killing. As a Code:Breaker—a super-powered assassin employed by a secret government organization—he works outside of the law, existing in the gray area between right and wrong. When Rei gets an assignment, criminals are cremated in a blaze of blue fire. That is, until a classmate named Sakura witnesses his fatal flames in action and makes it her mission to keep him from killing again.

As Sakura becomes entrenched in Rei’s world of cruelty, mayhem, and violence, the line between good and evil begins to blur. When another Code:Breaker goes rogue and the remaining assassins assemble, murder might be the only way to make things right.
