Where To Watch Anime Legally On Youtube In India


Youtube has always been a source of pirated anime for weebs worldwide looking for alternatives to costly subscription plans. This is even truer in India where people tend to favour the cheaper alternative. Moreover, Indian otakus have few options to watch their favourite series especially after Animax shut down.

But that has changed with the emergence of channels that stream anime on Youtube legally in India for free. These channels are run by distributors looking for ways to increase their reach. This is a smart move because it gives viewers who are reluctant to pay for anime less reason to turn to pirated websites. So if you want to support anime creators and distributors without paying, here's where to watch anime legally on Youtube in India.


Muse Asia

Muse Asia is the most popular anime streaming channel in Asia run by the distributor, MUSE Communication. The channel's main target audience is actually in Southeast Asia but it also streams in the South Asian region. Some of its titles are not available in India but most are. Its collection includes old classics like Gakuen Babysitters and recent releases like Welcome To Demon School! Iruma-kun Season 3.


Ani-One

Ani-One also streams a great collection of animes on Youtube. The Media Link Group-owned channel runs fan-favourites like Konosuba and latest titles like To Your Eternity Season 2. Its main target is also in the Southeastern region so some titles are unavailable in India.

The channel recently started Ani-One Asia Ultra, where they stream popular in-demand anime series like Trigun Stampede and Bleach for a premium. But most of its content are available for free.

GundamInfo

Bandai Namco has been streaming anime on Youtube long before the above two. The company has posted many Gundam titles on its official channel named GundamInfo. It doesn't have all the Gundam series but many popular series from its extensive catalogue.

Gundam is one of the most well-known mecha or fighting robot franchises. It has several shows set in alternate universes, most of which focus on the futility of war and the need to reach out. If you're into war, space and mechs, then give this channel a try.


CARDIGHTVanguard

If you are a fan of the Cardfight!! Vanguard series, then you should subscribe to its official Youtube channel. It not only streams some series from the franchise but also some tips on the card game. Those of you who don't know about the Vanguard series might enjoy it if you are fond of Yu Gi Oh! Or maybe not.

Pokémon Asia Official (Hindi)

For those of you who grew up with the Hindi dub of popular anime series, you might want to give Pokémon Asia Official (Hindi) a try. The channel is currently streaming Pokémon Journeys: The Series, Pokémon Master Journeys and Pokémon the Series: XY.  Currently, the channel uploads dubs of Master Journeys and XY weekly, so you have something to look forward to when you subscribe.

AnimeLog

Taking inspiration from Muse Asia and Ani-One, a group of thirty anime producers and distributors decided to launch AnimeLog. Unfortunately, the channel's overseas collection is small and very old. You might not have even heard of most of them. Hopefully, the channel will update its list else it won't be able to keep up with the first two on the listicle.

D4DJ Global

D4DJ First Mix is an interesting project and might appeal to those into idol girls. The official channel includes anime, live performances and audio drama. I haven't watched it since idol girls aren't my thing so if you have, do share what you feel about it.


So far, Muse Asia and Ani-One are the best legal sources of anime on Youtube. Hopefully, more distributors will wisen up and follow their model to reach viewers in Asia (especially South Asia). I'll keep updating the list as more official anime Youtube channels emerge.

Best Adulting Anime Series Every Adult Otaku Must Watch

Image
Screenshot Many of us join the weeb bandwagon during the teenage years. But as we grow older, the usual fan service and nakama power get boring. So here's a list of anime that adult fans should watch. Just to be clear, when I say adult anime, I don't mean the hentai, echi, or gory stuff. I mean an adult-centric anime with a focus on dealing with the adult lifestyle, like getting a job, the office life, being unsure of if you've been wasting your life and need to rethink it, that kinda stuff. So most of the shows on this list will be slice of life and seinen shows though you can find other genres as well.  If I miss your favorite shows, it's because it didn't match the list's theme or I just didn't watch it. I'm also excluding movies from the list, might make a separate one for that. I'll keep this list as free of spoilers as possible. ReLife Screenshot This series is a must-watch for every adult who feels like a failure. Although it follows adult

Baby Majuub: What if Baby had possessed Uub and Buu instead of Vegeta?

Image
Baby Majuub What if Baby had possessed Uub and then absorbed Buu? The result is Baby Majuub. Uub, despite being a Human, was strong enough to match Trunks, Gohan, Goten and Bra and held his own against Baby Vegeta. After fusing with Buu Majuub was evenly matched against Baby Vegeta but due to inexperience and dumb luck ended up getting hit by his own chocolate beam only to cause havoc inside his belly when SSJ4 Goku fights Baby Vegeta in Golden Ape form. To do that Baby would have to learn about Uub and Buu. He could learn about them through the memories of Trunks or Goten, both of whom he managed to posses at one point or another. Now Majin Buu is immune to Baby's virus due to his magic and physical makeup but Baby can still posses Uub. After possessing Uub he could match Majin Buu and maybe even use Buu's chocolate beam against him like Baby Vegeta did in GT when fighting Majuub, and eat chocolate Majin Buu to absorb him and become Baby Majuub. Majuub could be cons
