Nothing is better than having your favorite anime within your reach at any time. A lot of anime gets scattered around multiple platforms, and you have to subscribe to access most of them nowadays. This is why having open, and free access feels relieving and welcoming.
On Thursday, Viz Media announced on its blog that it had released some of its anime titles and movies on its YouTube Channel. These titles are free to access and are also curated in playlists for easy viewing and binge-watching.
Here are the following anime titles that have been released, along with the number of episodes or seasons:
- Death Note (All 37 episodes)
- Inuyasha (All 193 episodes and 4 movies)
- Hunter x Hunter (All 148 episodes)
- Mr. Osomatsu (Seasons 1 and 2, Episodes 1-50)
- Naruto (All 220 episodes)
- Sailor Moon (All Episodes including Sailor Moon and Sailor Moon Crystal)
Viz has also released a few anime films to watch in a separate playlist. Here is the list:
- Accel World: Infinite Burst
- Tiger & Bunny The Movie: The Beginning
- Tiger & Bunny The Movie -The Rising-
- K: Missing Kings
- Infini–T Force the Movie Farewell, Friend
- Mazinger Z: Infinity
- All four Inuyasha Movies
Currently, all the series above are only accessible in certain regions. Moreover, these are available only in Japanese with English subtitles in their original quality (No remastered episodes).
Viz previously released these titles and a few more on Hulu for free viewing. It later removed them from the platform in October 2020.
Despite being locked for certain regions, you can access them through a VPN. But we hope that more titles, especially some old classics, get released and become accessible everywhere. Old classics certainly need to be preserved so that future generations can appreciate them.
