Netflix will expand its content with anime shows.

At AnimeJapan 2021, Netflix announced that it will release 40 new anime titles this year, following the success of last year's series Blood of Zeus. Netflix's lead anime producer, Taiki Sakura, noted that Netflix's business growth is directly linked to the growth of anime. The release of new shows will include adaptations of Record of Ragnarok, The Way of the Househusband, Yasuke, Eden, and Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness.According to Bloomberg, the global anime market reached $23 billion last year and is expected to grow to $36 billion by 2025. Notably, Sony has also shown interest in the anime industry, announcing in December 2020 that it plans to acquire the anime video site Crunchyroll for $1.2 billion. However, the sale was delayed due to an antitrust investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice.Source: theverge.com
