Amazon remains out front with 16.5 million subs and 23 percent of premium video consumption, according to MPA&#8217;s <em>Japan Online Video Consumer Insights &amp; Analytics<\/em> report. Netflix has a 14 percent share of the SVOD market, with Hulu Japan at 6 percent. Other key local players include Abema TV, TVer and U-Next. Disney+ is also gaining ground.<\/p>\n<p>Vivek Couto, executive director of MPA, stated: \u201cThe premium video segment in Japan remains competitive. While Amazon retains a significant lead in the market, we saw material growth in subs and consumption share from Netflix in Q1, driven by the release of new live-action originals and a strong K-drama slate. Acquired and largely non-exclusive anime remains a massive driver of online video demand across platforms, exceeding 50 percent of total measured demand, with titles from ten animation studios capturing 45 percent of anime demand. Live-action dramas are particularly important for platforms like Hulu Japan, which leverages content from parent Nippon TV and others.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As Couto indicates, local anime dominated consumption (51 percent), followed by live-action Japanese titles at 18 percent. American series command a 10 percent share, with U.S. movies and Korean dramas each at 7 percent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The number of SVOD subscribers in Japan hit 48.4 million in Q1 2022, per Media Partners Asia (MPA), driven by gains at Netflix and Prime Video.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":290,"featured_media":6406,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[367,1548,719],"class_list":["post-6405","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-japan","tag-media-partners-asia-mpa","tag-vivek-couto"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Prime Video, Netflix Lead Japanese SVOD Market - TVASIA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/prime-video-netflix-lead-japanese-svod-market\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Prime Video, Netflix Lead Japanese SVOD Market - TVASIA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The number of SVOD subscribers in Japan hit 48.4 million in Q1 2022, per Media Partners Asia (MPA), driven by gains at Netflix and Prime Video.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/prime-video-netflix-lead-japanese-svod-market\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVASIA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-05-24T14:07:17+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2022-05-24T16:29:52+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2017\/07\/AMPD-MPA-Japan-522.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"319\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Mansha Daswani\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Mansha Daswani\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/prime-video-netflix-lead-japanese-svod-market\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/prime-video-netflix-lead-japanese-svod-market\/\",\"name\":\"Prime Video, Netflix Lead Japanese SVOD Market - TVASIA\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2022-05-24T14:07:17+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-05-24T16:29:52+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/#\/schema\/person\/83da304c8bad8bfdb3edd7eb47cfe5ad\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/prime-video-netflix-lead-japanese-svod-market\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/prime-video-netflix-lead-japanese-svod-market\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/prime-video-netflix-lead-japanese-svod-market\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Prime Video, Netflix Lead Japanese SVOD Market\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/\",\"name\":\"TVASIA\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvasia\/#\/schema\/person\/83da304c8bad8bfdb3edd7eb47cfe5ad\",\"name\":\"Mansha Daswani\",\"description\":\"Mansha Daswani is the editor-in-chief and associate publisher of World Screen.
