Is Streaming Killing Nostalgia? A Debate on How to Watch Anime

Has the rise of streaming platforms changed the way we experience anime forever? In this video, we explore whether the convenience of Crunchyroll, Netflix, HIDIVE, Disney+, and Amazon Prime Video is slowly replacing the nostalgic charm of DVDs, TV broadcasts, and fansubs.

We analyze how binge-watch culture, algorithm-driven recommendations, platform exclusives, and content removals affect the anime community. Are we losing something important—rituals, discovery, and emotional connection—or simply evolving into a new era of accessibility?

If you've ever wondered why anime felt different before, this debate is for you.
