For fans of alternate genres like anime, it used to be hard to acquire and you often had to rely on specialized services. While the genre is now more mainstream and has plenty of content on big streamers like Netflix, there is still some value in going to the source for quantity and variety. Enter the service HIDIVE.
HIDIVE is a new(ish) anime streaming service that was purchased earlier this year by AMC Networks. The direct-to-consumer subscription service offers access to over 500 anime series, movies, and OVAs, as well as simulcasts, dubs, exclusives, and even live-action titles.

HIDIVE offers a 7-day free trial, after which it is $4.99 a month or a discounted rate to subscribe annually, for just $47.99.
What’s on HIDIVE
HIDIVE carries hundreds of titles, although not as many of the big name ones as may be common on other services. It does carry several exclusives, such as Battle Girl High School and 100 Sleeping Princes & the Kingdom of Dreams, recent popular shows like the latest season of Lupin the 3rd, as well as original content such as AMC+’s new series Pantheon.
Features include allowing users access to both censored and uncensored content, the ability to change the color of subtitles for easier viewing, and an interactive chat feature for fans to discuss favorite content.
In addition, there is a release schedule calendar, allowing fans to see when new titles will be added to the service.
