Legally watching anime on Youtube is not just a dream anymore. However, releasing anything on Youtube has its own set of problems and MAPPA’S water polo anime, RE-MAIN, was the latest victim.
The Ani-One Asia Youtube channel had begun airing the RE-MAIN anime earlier this month. After the release of the first two episodes of the anime, they had to take the videos down due to a music rights issue.
Youtube often goes wrong with its automated algorithmic detection of copyrighted material, even if it is licensed or owned by the channel itself. Fortunately, everything is resolved now.
Ani-One Asia has announced that it will resume the simulcast streaming of RE-MAIN anime on its Youtube channel.
The channel has reuploaded the first two episodes after resolving the issue regarding music rights. The third episode of the anime is delayed and will come out on 25th July 2021, due to the Tokyo Olympics.
In an effort to popularise and reduce piracy, Youtube channels like Ani-One Asia and Muse Asia have been officially releasing anime on their channels for quite some time now.
Recently even simulcasting the latest shows of the season such as The Detective is Already Dead and Girlfriend Girlfriend.
Although anime streaming services are great, nothing beats the ease of access you get with Youtube.
RE-MAIN has been quite well received based on its first two episodes. As expected from Mappa, the show is visually appealing with a great premise and a lot of potential.
If you are a fan of sports anime, this show is worth checking out. After all, it’s just as easy as going on Youtube.
