Anime used to be something that wasn’t watched by many people all around the globe except for Japan. However, nowadays anime has become very popular. Contrary to how it used to be, nowadays people judge others who have not heard about anime and are prejudiced against it simply because it is animated.
Netflix in particular has become a site that contains some of the most popular and best anime. Netflix releases a top 10 global chart every week and anime took up 3 of the 10 spots. Fans are curious about this news.
Has Netflix Helped In Increasing Anime’s Popularity?
Netflix has some of the best anime. These anime include but are not limited to ‘Death Note’, ‘Demon Slayer’, ‘One Piece’ and countless others. Outside of the shonen genre, other genres are also available on Netflix. Netflix is one of the reasons why anime became this popular. Earlier people had to buy subscriptions to sites like Crunchyroll to watch anime or resort to illegal sites such as GoGoanime to watch their favorite shows. However, now they can find some of the best anime on Netflix which makes it easier for them to watch anime and has in turn increased its popularity.
There is not one most popular anime on Netflix, but there are many. Certain animes became popular because they were on Netflix and people who aren’t big fans of anime also watched those anime. Some examples of such anime are ‘Jujutsu Kaisen’, ‘Demon Slayer’, and ‘Spy X Family’. Therefore it can be said that Netflix has helped in increasing the popularity of anime.

Season two of ‘Baki Hanma’ made its debut on the charts in second place. It got a total of 6 million views. The anime is adapted from a manga under the same name and according to rumours, is set to get a second season. It is a perfect anime for Shonen lovers and deserves the rating it got.
‘My Happy Marriage’ didn’t let the viewers down this week either. It got its third week on the top 10 global weekly. The series received a total of 2.7 million views. It got to that place because fans loved it. The series stayed there for three weeks because it kept giving a good plotline to the fans.
It is no surprise that the second season of ‘Jujutsu Kaisen’ not only made it to the list but stayed there for three whole weeks. ‘Jujutsu Kaisen’ is in the tenth position with a total of 1.6 million views.
