March has been the month in which it was time to talk about streaming video platforms. We started with Netflix confirming that it was closing the faucet on shared accounts and, shortly after, SkyShowtime launched to try to fish in troubled rivers. Now out of nowhere a new platform arrives: AnimeBox. And yes, they have Selecta Visión behind them.
It’s about a streaming service specialized in Anime that comes to make things difficult for Crunchyrroll (the platform par excellence for lovers of Japanese cartoons), and then we are going to tell you everything you need to know about AnimeBox.
What is AnimeBox and on which platforms can it be enjoyed?

There will be both classics and novelties and, in fact, one of the characteristics is that access to simulcasts will be free. Simulcast is called the broadcast of the new episodes of an anime at the same time as the premiere in Japan. For example, when Kimetsu no Yaiba is released, we will also be able to see it here without having to wait.

The simulcasts, yes, will be available in the original version with subtitles.
About the devices, AnimeBox has an app on both Android and iOS devices. However, at the time of writing these lines, the Android app has not yet been released, but it will surely appear in the next few hours. If you want to watch AnimeBox on TV, you can do it through Chromecast or AirPlay.
