Recently, a series of lists have been made public that offer us the popularity of the series or what the users of this platform have as a preference, in addition to a video that exclaims what Netflix cares about, the series with more hours viewed and better valued throughout the year, the surprise for everyone comes when in them does not appear any series or anime film.
Anime is not popular on the Netflix platform?
Disposed in the recent revelation of the data of the Netflix Streaming platform, different facts have been indicated, such as popularity, hours, views and percentages of the series and movies of the same, what has been constantly emphasized since this has come to light is the total absence of anime series that both Netflix is proud to name the numbers of its scope.
The forums did not take long to create different threads, expressing their displeasure with these lists that directly exclude anime series and movies that have passed through the platform, “People who watch anime do not choose Netflix as a platform”, “Actually never anime is positioned in the lists” highlighting that it is not new this type of results. He ends with an interesting fact, “People prefer Korean dramas, that’s why we see one on the list”, something we check if we turn to the third place on the list.
That anime hasn’t had as much impact on the platform after, the platform itself had relevance such as the Pluto series, Tower of God, and dozens of Netflix original series that have seen the light of day over the years. Another big one on the platform recently was the One Piece Live Action, which was number one in the world for many weeks, something we have detailed in this note on our page.
If we look closely at the data provided by the streaming platform, we see that dramas are very prominent, as well as certain series or movies that are not entirely in English, accounting for 30% of total views. People prefer to watch subtitled series, something that can be added to anime, even though it did not appear in them. If you want to take a look, you can go to the official website from this link and draw your own conclusions.
Fans are really unhappy about this, as the platform has taken big hits from the world of Japanese animation and its derivatives, promoting the series every chance it gets… we understand that it’s not Crunchyroll, which has its focus entirely on anime and Japanese culture, but, not watching any of the wonderful movies or series from it is somewhat disappointing.
