7 - 7:50 Assassination Classroom 9-10 (Funi)
7:50 - 9:05 Maria the Virgin Witch 7-9 (Funi)
9:05 - 9:15 intermission
9:15 - 9:55 Samplers:
BAR Kiraware Yasai (fs)
Tesagure! 3 (CR) [note: the "3" is part of the title, not and episode number; it's also called Tesagure! Bukatsu-mono]
9:55 - 10:10 I Can't Understand What My Husband Is Saying 8-10 (CR)
10:10 - 11 Your Lie in April 8-9 (CR)
Notes: Alan was running late, so Gene's computer was used for Funimation (it only had a few minor issues at the beginning of Assassination Classroom 10, fixed by a single Refresh). We skipped BAR Kiraware Yasai and went to Gene's AppleTV for further shows...but Crunchyroll (or perhaps the network) seemed to get extraordinarily slow at that point, so although we watched Gunslinger Stratos via CR, we relied on fansubs for Tesagure! 3 (abandoned partway through the episode) and Your Lie in April, then were able to switch back to CR on AppleTV for I Can't Understand What My Husband Is Saying at the end of the time. We skipped BAR Kiraware Yasai not so much consciously as because we forgot about it and were short on time. Maybe the Friday after AX...
Who knows if the difference in performance is more a matter of Gene's laptop versus Alan's or some time-dependent network issue (perhaps lower network demand due to people leaving for summer vacations?), but since Crunchyroll had issues with Gene's AppleTV we know there are at least some issues that aren't specific to Alan's laptop.
As an aside - the 1st half of Maria was hard to watch (as expected), but didn't seem to be a deal-breaker. None of the samplers were particularly well-received, but at least we finished a whole episode of Gunslinger Stratos.
