I believe one of them that wasn’t dubbed on Netflix was The Devil Is A Part-Timer! Also, it’s probably so common because Netflix is mainly US. They do have German as well, but it’s mainly US It doesn’t. I’ve watched tons of subbed anime on Netflix.
But with so many options available, it’s hard for newcomers to know where to start, and Netflix doesn’t help by lumping its whole library under an “Anime” genre category. Anime encompasses countless different genres and subgenres and caters to several distinct demographics and tastes, just like live-action TV and film in the States.
Here's your full preview at all of the exciting new anime movies & TV shows coming to Netflix in 2022 and beyond.
Most of the series listed as "Netflix Original Anime" are neither produced nor owned by Netflix. Instead, most of them are anime licensed for streaming from the Japanese studios directly to Netflix, without another licensor like FUNimation or Viz as an intermediary.

Most of Netflix's anime series and movies aren't quite full Netflix Originals. Instead, they buy up the international distribution rights to series and movies. They still are known as Netflix Originals but are produced somewhere else so Netflix doesn't have a full say on whether they get new seasons or sequels.

Today, Attack on Titan earns this title with its immaculate storytelling. Attack on Titan has gradually earned its position as the best new-generation anime since its debut in 2013. Since reaching this mark, fans have begun placing the series in conversations with the best anime of all time.
Usually American audiences crave Japanese anime shows. However, in the case of RWBY, Rooster Teeth Productions' American-made animated series, the show is heading the other direction. The multi-channel network announced on Friday that its Japanese-style cartoon will be exported by Warner Bros.
This coming May, Netflix will be saying goodbye to three well-regarded anime titles, and fans will definitely be gutted to see them go. May 2022 will see anime titles Weekly Girls' Nozaki-kun, Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas, and Parasyte: The Maxim leave the platform.
Disney+ is getting ready to push even more into anime in the next few years, and now has set a release date for one of the new projects licensed for the service! Anime is becoming one of the most popular entertainment mediums around the world (especially due to all of the renewed interest sparked by the ongoing COVID ...
Ignoring Neo-Yokio, a primarily American production made for Fox's canceled ADHD block, which very arguably qualifies as anime based on its Japanese animation studio, the first real Netflix Original Anime was Devilman Crybaby. In this case, the first might very well be the best one so far.
Coming up in the near future for Netflix Original Anime is the shojo sci-fi 7 Seeds (premiering June 28), a CGI version of Knights of the Zodiac: Saint Seiya (July 19) and the fighting anime Kengan Ashura.
Netflix's other break-out hit in the anime world has been Aggretsuko, the Sanrio series about an office worker red panda who vents her anxieties through death metal. Aggretsuko carved a unique niche for itself as an anime that's cute and cartoony, but also primarily aimed at adult women.
These sorts of shows air on regular broadcast stations in Japan. Netflix doesn't release them internationally until after a full season, if not the full series itself, has aired in Japan. When Netflix licenses an anime, it can be a long wait for American fans to watch it legally.
Because Netflix doesn't actually own permanent rights to these so-called "Originals," expect more of them to slowly disappear from the service. Knights of Sidonia, at least, was one of the limited number of Netflix-licensed anime to get a physical media release.
It's become something of a cult favorite. The series received a Christmas special and a second season. Quick to follow up on Aggetsuko 's success, Netflix also made another short-form anime based on mascot characters for an adult female audience, the stop-motion series Rilakuma and Kaoru.

If you’re looking for some quality comedy to perk up your day, The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. is arguably one of the funniest anime on Netflix with its ridiculously quirky characters and unreal predicaments that surround a psychic teenager.
Baki. Baki: Season 2, The Great Raitai Tournament Saga, arrived on Netflix in 2020 after Parts 1 and 2 hit us back in 2018. Judging from the end theme video released by Netflix, it looks like Baki and Mohammad Alai Jr. will be training hard, and simping hard over Kozue Matsumoto.
Seasons 4 and 5 arrived on April 21, 2020 -- called The Assault and The Bount. There’s a total of 16 seasons, with Season 17 coming this year, so hopefully by the time of the release of the new season we’ll have 1 - 16 on Netflix. But for now, you can catch seasons 1 - 5 on Netflix.

Fans of this popular manga series have been waiting for Netflix to release this one on their streaming platform for a long while! Dorohedoro tells the story of Caiman and his friend Nikaido as they venture forth into a violent, post-apocalyptic world seeking answers as to how he became the reptilian-headed creature he is today. Pretty much, no sorcerer is safe from the mouth of Caiman as he searches for the sorcerer that did this to him.
Castlevania technically is Japanese in origin, as the video game series that inspired it comes from Japan. The animation team even received some assistance from D'Art Shtajio in Japan. That said, the series is generally considered Western for the most part, with American studio Frederator Studios serving as a producer.
Blood of Zeus, also known as Gods & Heroes, is an American animated series based around the figures of Greek mythology. It was even billed as a "Netflix original anime."
While Trese is designed to resemble an anime, it is a Filipino series with origins in a Filipino horror comic revolving around a detective who fights the forces of the supernatural when it proves too much for the police to handle.
The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf is a spin-off of the live-action series, The Witcher, a Polish-American co-production. For many anime fans, simply being animated in Japan would have allowed the film to be considered an anime production in its own right.
While Chinese donghua sometimes gets mistaken for Japanese anime, Chinese animation has become quite prominent over the years and has generated its own dedicated fanbase.
Based on the Dota 2 video game, Dota: Dragon's Blood is an animated fantasy series produced by South Korea's Studio Mir and Ashley Edward Miller's Kaiju Boulevard, making it an international co-production.
When it comes to being animesque, Neo Yokio is one of the more complicated examples. It's usually considered an American production. However, various Japanese anime studios, like Production I.G. and Studio Deen, have worked on it.
Fans of anime will often turn to pirated sources due to both subscription costs and the fact that some shows are either not licensed for distribution through a media service website or are not simulcast.

Yasuke is loosely based on the life of the real-life Black samurai of the same name who fought under his lord Oda Nobunaga. The anime, which premieres April 2021 weaves fantasy into the samurai’s story as he gradually befriends and defends a young girl with magical abilities. A lead performance from LaKeith Stanfield gives Yasuke a guarded and terse sense of gravitas, and Flying Lotus handles the show’s laid-back soundtrack.#N#Watch it if you love: Black Samurai, Michonne in The Walking Dead

The latest work by visionary director Masaaki Yuasa ( Devilman Crybaby, The Tatami Galaxy, Ping Pong the Animation ), the 10-episode series is based on Sakyo Komatsu’s award-winning disaster novel Japan Sinks and updated for the modern day, following a pair of siblings who must escape Tokyo in the wake of a massive earthquake.
The show revolves around 17-year-old shogi player Rei and how he copes with the loss of his family. At various points, Rei is buried under the weight of his emotions, and the art direction depicts his struggle in animation that shifts between clean lines, painterly watercolor backgrounds, decadently saturated multicolor haze, jarring black-and-white sketches, and other stylistic changes depending on Rei’s mood. It can feel more like a tone poem than TV — far from a bad thing.#N#Watch it if you love: Ordinary People; Six Feet Under
A pocket of survivors now lives on a giant floating city called the Mud Whale, and a majority of them developed psychokinetic abilities. Its 12 episodes explore what happens when the Mud Whale encounters another island with very different beliefs, and the conflict that follows. And while that’s all interesting, its stylized animation, watercolorlike backgrounds, and slow pace put the show in a class of its own.#N#Watch it if you love: Dune, Mortal Engines
As it did with Evangelion, Netflix has taken over English- language stewardship of the original Saint Seiya cartoon and re-released it with a new, uncensored dub — and this one’s actually pretty good (and also available in the original Japanese with subtitles). The anime classic, based on the manga by Masami Kurumada and alternately known as Knights of the Zodiac, follows the battles of five warriors who wield magic armor linked to the constellations. They fight valiantly for the Greek goddess Athena and look badass while doing it.#N#Watch it if you love: Wonder Woman; Clash of the Titans
Baki. Like many of the others on this list, Netflix’s Baki series is a long-running franchise that’s been given a refresh, and, like its predecessors, how much you enjoy it will depend on how into watching comically burly men pummel the hell out of each other.
