Jujutsu Kaisen, Black Clover, One Piece and More Find New Streaming Home on Netflix

Netflix has announced several massively popular titles coming to its streaming service in 2024 for the first time, including the likes of Jujutsu Kaisen, One Piece and Black Clover, among others.

Via Netflix's official X (formerly Twitter) account, the streaming service revealed that the first four seasons of My Hero Academia, Haikyu!! and Black Clover, the first seasons of Jujutsu Kaisen and Spy x Family, and the popular One Piece Film: Red will all be coming to the platform by the end of 2024. Readers can check out the official announcement below.

Haikyuu, Mob Psycho 100 and Yu Yu Hakusho Receive Netflix Release Dates

Fans excited by the news received even more hype with Netflix revealing that, alongside Black Clover Season 1's arrival on April 1, 2024, Haikyu!! Season 1 (March 25), Mob Psycho 100 Seasons 1 and 2 (April 15) and Yu Yu Hakusho Seasons 3 and 4 (April 15) will also be joining the platform. The announcements came just before Anime Japan 2024, where highly anticipated titles like BEASTARS and Mobile Suit Gundam: Requiem (Fall 2024) also received updates.

Netflix continues to increase its anime footprint through major licenses and direct partnerships with creators. A second season to The Seven Deadly Sins' Nakaba Suzuki's sequel series, Four Knights of the Apocalypse, was just announced, alongside the additional cast for his Rising Impact series. Additionally, Eiichiro Oda's One Piece anime remake announcement followed the start of the surprise weekly releases of the series' ongoing "Egghead" arc and his Monsters series.

Netflix Increases the Anime Streaming Competition for Sites Like Crunchyroll

As Crunchyroll continues to license anime, as seen in its Spring 2024 lineup, competition for eyes has arguably never been higher. Nevertheless, in addition to recent remarks on the popular Solo Leveling, Crunchyroll CEO Rahul Purini shared how he viewed Netflix as a help to Crunchyroll; the platform acts as an introduction to anime for casual fans, with Crunchyroll being the destination for fans looking to take the next step.

While Netflix and Crunchyroll are the two biggest anime streamers in the U.S. for Gen Z, smaller licensors like Disney -- which acquired Akira Toriyama's Sand Land -- and Warner Bros.' Max, which renewed its deal for the majority of Studio Ghibli's catalog, are also intensifying efforts to catch up. Warner Bros. has announced plans to ramp up anime production, with future plans to transition to Max exclusives worldwide currently unclear.
