Hidive
Hidive (stylized in all caps) is an American subscription video on-demand over-the-top streaming service owned by AMC Networks. The service primarily offers Japanese anime content to paid subscribers.
The service was launched in June 2017 after the dissolution of The Anime Network's online service, which survived after the liquidation of the former A.D. Vision's assets in 2009.
Hidive and its parent Sentai Filmworks were both acquired by AMC Networks at the beginning of January 2022 and restricted access to English language markets in December 2023. The streaming service offers a number of features, among those include live chat, customizable viewing features, customized profiles and subtitles, and parental controls among other things.
Before the launch of HIDIVE, anime shows that were licensed by Sentai Filmworks were often streamed on Anime Network Online, which once served as the streaming service for the now defunct Anime Network.
The Hidive streaming service launched in June 2017, as Hidive, LLC, a new company not affiliated with Anime Network, was formed in 2017 and shortly after, acquired Anime Network Online's assets and spun them off into the new streaming service following Anime Network Online's discontinuation. Former subscriptions from Anime Network Online were later moved to Hidive.
It exclusively streams select licensed titles from Sentai and Section23, as well as a handful that was formerly held by A.D. Vision, including a small number of titles that were previously exclusive to the defunct streaming channel Anime Strike.
On July 21, 2017, Hidive announced the service would start to offer selected anime titles with Spanish and Portuguese subtitles and began offering "Dubcasts" later in March 2018. Similar to SimulDubs, it competes against FUNimation's SimulDub program. This allows Hidive to stream dubs of simulcast titles approximately two to three weeks after the initial Japanese broadcast.
On October 18, 2018, VRV announced that Hidive would be launching its channel on its service, which replaced FUNimation Now, which left the service on November 9, 2018.
