Apocalypse Hotel, the overall winner, is available on Crunchyroll (at least in the US, it can vary by market). Honestly, if you are in the US, most of these are going to be on Crunchyroll I think. CR are continuing their “take over all the things” arc within this niche. So, if you only subscribe to one service, it should be the one (unless you just sail the high seas). Other places you find some quality titles from time to time would be Netflix, HiDive, Amazon Prime, or Disney+.
CITY is not on CR – or, at least, it wasn’t when I was looking for it last year.
Wikipedia has it listed as licensed by Amazon Prime Video. (I expect most people just raised the Jolly Roger though…)
Yep! Looks like CITY is on Prime.
