List of Hyouka episodes explained
Hyouka (Japanese: 氷菓) is a 22-episode animated television series based on Honobu Yonezawa's novel of the same name. It was produced by Kyoto Animation with direction by Yasuhiro Takemoto, series composition by Shoji Gatoh, character design by Futoshi Nishiya, and music composition by Kohei Tanaka.[1] The series centers around the events which first-year high school student Houtarou Oreki faces when he joins his school's Classic Literature Club.
Hyouka aired in Japan from April to September 2012.[2] [3] The series was broadcast on Tokyo MX, Chiba TV, Television Saitama, Television Kanagawa, KBS Kyoto, Sun Television, Gifu Broadcasting System, Mie Television, TVQ Kyushu Broadcasting, and BS11.[4] The first episode premiered on April 14 at a special event at Kadowaka Cinema, Shinjuku.[5] A bonus original video animation episode was streamed online on UStream on July 8, 2012, and was later released on Blu-ray Disc with the third manga volume on January 13, 2013.[6] [7] Two Drama CD volumes were released by Bandai Namco Arts in August and October 2012.[8] Kadokawa Shoten released the Blu-ray/DVD volumes of Hyouka in Japan.
Crunchyroll LLC (formerly Funimation) has licensed the anime and released a two-part Blu-ray/DVD edition in North America in July and September 2017 with an English dub. After Funimation was unified with the Crunchyroll brand in 2022, the English dub of Hyouka became part of its namesake streaming service.[9] [10] Anime Limited released it in the United Kingdom in 2017 and 2018.[11] In November 2021, Funimation UK relicensed the anime and released a complete series edition containing all the episodes.[12]
