But by simultaneously", do they REALLY mean that?


Yeah I'm not sure either. Guessing its either they're actually gonna simulcast it or just do what Crunchyroll did with ReLIFE and release it all at once. Betting more on the latter than the former.

I will consider it "simultaneous" only if all Netflix versions (Netflix Japan for example) release this and all those other upcoming releases with 12 hours of the Japanese premiere date. In addition, this consideration applies only when it is a weekly simulcast.

"Worldwide" and "simultaneously" should easily mean every country gets it as a weekly simulcast. However, because of Netflix's binge-watching practices, I doubt that's the case for the USA/Canadian audiences.

I think most likely it will be a true Netflix Original and they'll put it all up at once everywhere. I don't even know that it (and some of the other titles announced) will be broadcast on TV.
