I honestly do not understand. How is a summary of an episode of an anime "news"?
Tomorrow's headlines(?): Keita Embarrasses Self In Front of Fumi In New Youkai Watch Episode People Speak Quickly But Not As Quickly As In Teekyuu! In Military! Episode 2 Aya Hirano Continues To Voice Migi In Parasyte Episode 14 |

What is newsworthy is the streaming itself. This anime series is being streamed by its studio worldwide. However, unlike many series streamed worldwide, it does not have subtitles. ANN added a summary as a service to readers watching the series. |

That makes some more sense, although by following the link I see that the first episode was uploaded yesterday. To me, that sounds like the notable part, yet the article just says that the second episode streamed today and that it began airing on Tokyo MX, seemingly missing the part that's actually newsworthy (they started streaming it worldwide as of yesterday) and just giving a general overview of the show while spending most of the article detailing the events of episode 2.

The anime actually premiered last week, and ANN posted an article about the first episode with a summary then. |

But it says Ajoutée le 13 janv. 2015. Why would YouTube lie to me, in French or otherwise?
I give up. Goodnight, ANN and posters. |

I thought that the summary is for people who can't understand Japanese, since it doesn't have English subtitle. I find it quite helpful when ANN did the same thing in their Donyatsu articles back then.

They have it streaming worldwide raw? Great move to the Japanese companies.

It usually posts in American western time, as I've heard... so no matter what country you post from, it shows that time. I write from Japan, so it's confusing. -_-; Also, it might be because the company posts the episodes one day after they air. That's what happens with Oha-Star programs. |

I wonder why there's a lack of official Eng. subs on these episodes.

Probably these are made for Japanese in mind, not an international audiences. |

The first video's link was originally shared while it was unlisted (only those with a link to it could view it). Youtube changes the publish date from when the video was uploaded to the date the video goes from unlisted to public. This was uploaded/shared as an unlisted video last week, and DLE made it public on the 13th.
Q-Transformers is for a Japanese audience by DLE and Takara Tomy. Hasbro, the western rights holder to the property, isn't involved. |

That's the answer I was looking for, thank you. |
