- Anime is very closely related to other entertainment segments such as manga, character merchandise, and games, creating a strong ecosystem that drives mutual growth. Popular anime series often encourage manga adaptations, video games, and collectible merchandise, which enhances fan engagement. For example, franchises like Naruto and Attack on Titan generate a lot of revenue across these interconnected markets, thus boosting the growth of the Anime market.
- Increased streams and global fan engagement helped grow the demand for anime, according to industry reports that recorded a 118% increase in demand during 2020 and 2022. Major studios and streaming platforms like Crunchyroll and Netflix launched many popular series such as Demon Slayer and Jujutsu Kaisen on their platforms, paving a way for international accessibility.
- The proliferation of streaming services and increasing global media consumption are expected to further fuel the anime market. Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, and Funimation continue to invest in anime content, including original productions. With an increase in internet access across the globe, the popularity of anime is set to grow exponentially, reaching a diverse audience worldwide.
Anime Market Growth
Japan is an established stronghold for animation, with well over 600 studios spread around the nation and over 500 alone within Tokyo. The rich cultural heritage of manga continues to feed inspiration in what is almost a constant production line for a new generation of artists; expansion in anime programming on television has been surprisingly large. This growth has primarily been driven by streaming sites like Netflix, which boast very large libraries of everything from diverse anime to films and documentaries, thus pushing the growth of anime market globally. Genres include action-based adventure stories as well as inspirational ones and offbeat comedies. Anime caters to different segments. This fusion has made the world witness the rise of anime as a global phenomenon that pushes the market forward, creating enjoyable experiences for viewers in nearly every corner of the globe.
Historically, the global market for anime faced several challenges: it had only a few distribution channels, faced cultural barriers, and suffered from piracy. Since most titles could not be localised, they could reach very few international audiences, impeding the anime demand. The companies that rose above these problems are the major players Funimation and Crunchyroll, who were willing to invest in greater dubbing and subtitling to make their contents more accessible and later integrate these contents into various types of streaming platforms to make distribution more widespread. Moreover, the fight against piracy, such as streaming portals accessible over the internet, preserved much of the revenue. Hence, such measures have greatly increased the reach and popularity of anime worldwide.
