BEVERLY HILLS: Netflix is making all episodes of the original anime series Perfect Bones available simultaneously in 190 countries around the world.

Thanks to a deal with Production I.G, the 12-episode series will get a global debut via the internet TV network. Perfect Bones, directed by Kazuto Nakazawa, is set in a future where scientists have tried to create the “perfect human” in hopes of keeping peace in the universe. The scientists send their “new humans” for further training, where they are kidnapped by an evil organization set on using their powers to implement their own concept of a new world order.

“We are incredibly excited to work with Production I.G, who have worked on hit series such as Attack on Titan and Psycho-Pass, in bringing one of the most daring new anime titles produced today to all Netflix members and anime fans around the world,” said Erik Barmack, Netflix’s VP of international originals. “In an era where the internet knows no bounds, we are proud to deliver high quality original anime to fans all over the world, at the exact same time, no matter where they live, whether it be Japan, France, Mexico, the U.S. and beyond.”

Mitsuhisa Ishikawa, the president and CEO of Production I.G, said, “Among all the TV series and films Netflix offers, the titles I personally find the most amazing are Netflix originals. Production I.G is eager to present another impactful title brought through our creators’ passion and imagination. We’re very excited about Perfect Bones!”
