The anime adaptation of Atsushi Ookubo’s work (Fire Force) hit it in 2008
It is possible that if I tell you about Atsushi Ookubo You may not know which person I am referring to, but I am convinced that at least the names of the the two great manga he created: Soul Eater and Fire Force. Both works had adaptations in anime format, and in this article I would like to inform you On which platforms can we see the first of them legally in Spain?.
Soul Eater was a series animated by Bones (My Hero Academia, Bungo Stray Dogs) which was created in 2008 and which has become very popular among fans of action and fantasy stories. Are you curious to see it? Pay close attention to this information:
Watch anime on Netflix
The truth is that things didn’t start very well. Netflix is a good platform to enjoy fairly renowned anime, however. Soul Eater’s name does not appear in their catalog. The Bones series is neither here nor expected.
Netflix is not worth us.
Watch the anime on Crunchyroll
We’ve improved a bit, but it’s still not enough. Soul Eater appears in the Crunchyroll anime catalog, however its various chapters are not available to watch from Spain. I don’t know if the series can be enjoyed from LATAMbut for the moment here it is impossible.
Crunchyroll is also not a valid option.
Watch the anime on Prime Video
We are with another case very similar to that of Crunchyroll. On Amazon Prime Video it is possible to find the name Soul Eater, but of course it is only available if you have an account in the United States. This regional blocking stuff sucks, doesn’t it?
Prime Video is also not working for us.
Watch anime on AnimeBox
AnimeBox is the newest anime-focused video streaming platform in the industry. This service has the right to distribute quite varied and famous series that are impossible to find elsewhere. Do you have those from Soul Eater? Well, the truth is right now… no.
AnimeBox is not an option.
View anime through Selecta Vision
When streaming services fail to provide us with a specific anime, the physical format usually saves the day. Unfortunately even Selecta Visión does not have products related to Souls Eaterno Blu-ray and DVD packs.
Soul Eater also cannot be seen in physical form.
Disney+, HIDIVE and other platforms
It remains to be seen if Soul Eater is on other services like Disney+, Jonu Media or HIDIVE. After doing a quick investigation, I found that none of these platforms have the rights to stream this anime. The situation is dire.
conclusion
As of today it is IMPOSSIBLE to see Soul Eater legally in Spain. None of the multiple streaming platforms offers the possibility of enjoying this work in good quality, so the vast majority of users interested in seeing it will surely resort to piracy.
In any case, if the arrival of the series is announced to one of the aforementioned services, I will update this article and let you know.
