Content now provided by three major video streaming services;

MyAnimeList envisioned as web portal for officially-licensed anime



TOKYO, JAPAN – April 4, 2016 – DeNA Co., Ltd. (Tokyo: 2432) today

announced that anime videos streamed online by Hulu in the U.S. and

Crunchyroll worldwide are now accessible in selected regions outside

Japan through MyAnimeList (myanimelist.net), a website operated by

DeNA's U.S. subsidiary MyAnimeList, LLC for anime fans around the

world. With the addition of these two video streaming services, the

total number of officially licensed anime episodes viewable worldwide

on or through MyAnimeList is now over 20,000.



“With a wide variety of content from three major video streaming

services, MyAnimeList will drastically improve accessibility to

officially-licensed anime episodes for fans worldwide,” said Takeshi

Sumida, CEO of MyAnimeList, LLC. “We believe that this will make a

positive contribution to Japan's anime and manga industry. We hope to

establish MyAnimeList as the go-to web portal for licensed anime, and

continue to add new features and content for sales.”



Every month, more than 10 million anime fans visit MyAnimeList where

they use the website's database to make their own lists of anime they

have watched, post reviews, and exchange information with other users.

Following the purchase of MyAnimeList, DeNA Group began embedding

videos streamed on external services onto MyAnimeList anime database

pages. In July 2015, videos streamed by Anime Consortium Japan Inc.'s

DAISUKI.net became accessible on MyAnimeList.
