Where Can You Watch TBATE?

In many parts of the world, “The Beginning After The End” is now available for streaming on Crunchyroll. As stated on their official website, this includes regions such as North America, Central America, South America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), South Asia/Indian subcontinent, and Oceania.

Nevertheless, it should be noted that Netflix is broadcasting the series in certain Asian regions such as Japan, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, Singapore, and Hong Kong. Interestingly, it appears these areas may not have Crunchyroll streaming the series, as the company isn’t active in some of them.

The scheduling for Netflix Asia might not match with Crunchyroll’s, but it’s worth noting that Crunchyroll is currently the only platform offering dubbing in multiple languages. Therefore, viewers on Netflix will have to make do with subtitled versions.

TBATE Creator Speaks Up About The Anime

Ever since the series premiere, both dedicated followers from the past and fresh viewers have voiced concerns over the animation’s standard. The issue became so prevalent that its creator, TurtleMe, even addressed it on Reddit.

I wholeheartedly agree that everyone is giving their all, and I’ve picked up on hints suggesting my influence in the production isn’t as substantial as I’d hoped. Initially, I was eager to play a more significant role with Studio A-Cat, but it appears the course of events has taken an unexpected turn.

In the course of our discussions, it’s inevitable that varying creative perspectives will emerge, but I truly think that each participant is putting forth their utmost effort and goodwill.

In the world of anime production, it’s uncommon for creators to have much influence on the details when a new anime is born. This was an eye-opener for me because, with The Beginning After the End, I was accustomed to having full control over every aspect.

The Anime Could Make It Despite Everything

Surprisingly, even with numerous complaints, TBATE managed to rank as the sixth most-watched show on Netflix Japan from April 7 to April 13. Last week, it didn’t break into the top ten, but it’s still remarkable how many views the series attracted.

Observing here, it seems despite numerous critiques, the series continues to captivate viewers, generating quite a stir – positive and negative chatter alike. Interestingly, some spectators have voiced their appreciation for the improved animation in Episode 3 compared to the prior episodes. Even suggestions for a remake have surfaced among certain circles.

At a minimum, it indicates that there’s significant potential for the series to thrive if its future episodes align better with fan expectations.

The Beginning After The End is already getting an English dub on Crunchyroll.
