Spring 2024 Anime Viewership: Japan vs. US! Anime, like Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, may get more views in the US because of the country's size, even though Japan still has a higher rate of viewership per capita. It's fascinating how the majority of anime revenue now comes from overseas sales.
In Japan, popular platforms like Abema TV and Niconico share viewership data openly, while in the US, services like Crunchyroll and Netflix keep their figures more secretive. This competitive landscape in Japan makes it easier to gather data and compare with the Western markets!
Combining official streaming with bootleg site metrics, we created a unique "viewership score" to compare popularity across countries.
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba - Hashira Training Arc had such immense popularity in the US it skewed our whole graph!
