Anime Limited announces partnership with Wakanim.tv • Anime UK News

Today, Anime Limited revealed that they have formed a partnership with the French online anime service Wakanim.tv, who will soon be offering simulcasts and streaming of older titles to the United Kingdom through a dedicated English language website. The new website will launch sometime in the middle of the month, with the first title to be offered being Studio Trigger’s Kill la Kill, which will have its first episode shown on the Anime Limited website in the interim from later today, before the simulcast occurs as normal.

Wakamin will offer both free and premium high definition and standard definition services. When the service launches, episodes will be able to be watched for free for the first month and can be downloaded for free for a period of four days. Episodes will also be able to be rented via access to a premium stream for 30 days for 69p each, or can be downloaded to own for £1.25 per episode. The company has also confirmed that its download-to-own titles will be free of unpopular DRM restrictions.
