At Tokyo’s AnimeJapan 2021 Expo, Netflix announced that they are planning to release 40 new anime shows this year.

Code:

The new series to be released this year include an adaptation of the Japanese manga Record of Ragnarok, set to premiere in June; Yasuke, about an African samurai in feudal-era Japan which will premiere April 29th; and Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness, based on the video game franchise. Netflix previously announced its anime series The Way of the Househusband, also based on a Japanese manga series, will debut April 8th. Variety notes that the number of anime titles coming to Netflix this year is nearly double the number of anime series and movies it released in 2020. “We want to be able to pride ourselves as being the top entertainment destination with good quality content,” Taiki Sakurai, Netflix’s chief anime producer, told Bloomberg. “The growth of our business is directly connected to the growth of our anime.”

It seems Netflix is really going full steam ahead with their anime expansion. I find myself watching anime on Netflix more and more.

I'm not sure what you mean by butchering a character?

These will be Netflix originals, but ofc, as with all their anime originals, it's done via another company. So, there will likely be a Japanese company that makes the show, with Netflix's financing etc. It's normally a joint venture. You may be able to look up the shows and see what companies are involved (I think).

Interesting. I hadn't head of it. It's an American cartoon though, as opposed to anime. So I imagine the line-ups are quite different. Does Amazon have any anime on their catalogue?

Netflix is a great platform for anime, but they drop the anime abruptly if it's viewer ship drops.
Many good anime have stopped like it.
Baki latest season was just like that.

Netflix knows customer preference and due to increased viewership it's producing many exclusive Animes.
