Studio Ghibli Films Will Remain Off Japanese Streaming Platforms Under Nippon TV's Current Policy
Nippon TV president and CEO Hiroyuki Fukuda addressed shareholder concerns about the streaming availability of Studio Ghibli titles, indicating the studio's films will continue to be unavailable on streaming services within Japan. Ghibli has long maintained a preference for traditional distribution methods, and Fukuda's comments suggest no change to that policy is imminent. The studio appears unconcerned that restricting digital access will diminish its cultural relevance.
