HIDIVE Launches on Fire TV
posted on by Karen Ressler
Anime streaming service HIDIVE announced on Tuesday that it has launched an app for Fire TV and Fire TV Stick (2nd generation and later) devices.
The HIDIVE streaming service launched last June after acquiring assets previously held by Anime Network Online. The service has primarily streamed titles — including simulcasts and seasonal dubs — that are licensed for home video by Section23 Films and its subsidiary Sentai Filmworks, though it has also added some older titles such as Space Runaway Ideon, Xabungle, and the live-action Lone Wolf and Cub series. Sentai Filmworks president and CEO John Ledford is also the founder and president of HIDIVE.
HIDIVE has since released apps for iOS, Android, and Apple TV. The service launched out of beta with a new pricing plan on Tuesday.
