It would be a lot easier for me if you imagine there's something funny or interesting here.

Does Netflix have subbed anime?

If that's the case, I'll take it.

Well, considering they do have quite a bit of anime, I'd assume most of the series have Dv Ds with Subs.

Well, then I'll take it. I always feel a bit guilty about enjoying anime over the internet. Would love to do it legally without having to pay 5 euros per episode.

Their selection is decent, but it could be larger. From what I remember, they have at least Comic Party, Black Jack, Angelic Layer, and Gun X Sword. They probably have more, too.

Angelic Layer, Ghost In The Shell Stand Alone Complex, Gun X Sword, Gankutsuou and Last Exile are all available through streaming video. Those are the only five complete ones I know of. Unfortunately, there's no option to change the language on any of them, so you'd have to rent the discs if you wanted to watch them with English subtitles.

@newton: I suggested the same thing when this announcement came up on Kotaku.

Xbox 360 seems to have system-based integration for Netflix as a timed exclusive, as PS3 suffers from the same issue.

Yeeeeah.

Now if only I had a list of their available streaming titles. I am annoyed somewhat by the fact that the official website will only show fifteen at a time per category.

See you in the discussion pages.

wild mass guess And this is why they didn't make the Wii play DVDs

I don't know why I said that. Just upset a little. I hope they let you rent movies with Wii points. Never mind it's unlimited plans.

Why am I not surprised this is the first post in this thread? Sorry if this counts as a necrobump or something.

It's because this forum is infested with disgusting otakus that have the nerve to like anime, is why.

As a loyal slave employee of Netflix, I would like to take the time to remind you not to return the Wii discs or life will be terminated.

By the way, what movies do the clips in the adverts (i.e.: the one with the dog, the fantasty one, the musical, the spy movie with the secret weapon) come from?

I think they're just parodies of popular genres rather than a particular film. Like the fantasy film looks like it's purposefully spoofing Lord Of The Rings and the films that played Follow the Leader with it.

Current project: Cleaning up the Chrono Crusade examples one at a time. God help me.

Disk? What disk?
The new Wii Shop Channel Update lets you watch Netflix without the disk. I guess Malph's warning is well heeded.
