The 2010 anime was for enthusiasts and newcomers alike. Over the past decade, seamless streaming and online streaming services like Netflix, Crunchyroll, Amazon Prime, and Hulu changed the nature of the medium in subtle and terrifying ways, showing how anime fans shared the show and how you celebrated movies that they liked. Japanese animation is now a stronger medium than at any other time in its existence and looking at the 2024 offering, things are only going to get better.
