Netflix approach for Japanese content industry is much meaningful then the rest of Japanese content industry where keep complain about their sales decline and keep blaming on piracy.

Was skeptical with Netflix's version of One Piece, but ended up binge watching the whole thing. Good for Netflix !!

@Sakurasuki Well, the people complaining about piracy are the publishers and the mangaka and rightfully so. They are not in the business of making TV shows or movies. It takes huge funds to make these shows which sometime flop. Netflix has the funds to cover these losses.

One piece by Netflix is good, but Cowboy Bebop was definitely better.
