Dandadan situation again, thanks to MBS. Seems like Crunchyroll will stream it outside Asia (but included CIS and Middle East), while Netflix will stream it worldwide. GKIDS, ADN, Tropics, Aniplus handle the theatrical releases. Hulu obviously in the US, prolly Japan too. ADN in France.

Unless it's specified a exclusive partnership it doesn't mean it's all their shows also it might be somebody else on the Japanese side negotiating which is why it's that deal that for that series.

@Otakupervert890 I'm not saying it's an exclusive partnership, I thought HiDive would at least stream it alongside other platforms because they have a partnership. But they don't. Same as DDD. Probably this one and DDD are more expensive.

@RealNath a partnership don't mean all the material unless specified. Maybe it got nothing to do with money and just that Sentai is not invited in the bidding as their deal guarantee other shows regardless.

@RealNath just digged it's an exclusive partnership so it mean that Dandadan and witch watch are not in the negotiations for MBS. They are just producers it's why Cr and Netflix can have them. The first show of the deal was Liselotte and heretic villainess.

So is this a popular series?

I mean its getting 2 cours and that doesnt just happen with every series.

So far from this trailer it looks to be pretty good.

It’s very popular in Japan but from what I can tell, overseas it’s only big shonen jump fans who follow it. The author is 3/3 with anime adaptations of his manga, the other being the wildly successful SKET Dance and the 5-volume sci fi series Kanata no Astra

@PaperCutAssassin Then again overseas popularity doesnt really matter as thats not a factor on if series get more seasons.

So im glad to hear its popular in japan.
