What it concludes

Netflix's binge release model delays international releases of anime titles compared to their Japanese broadcast.
Netflix original anime productions like Devilman Crybaby bypass Netflix jail by being produced in part by the streaming service for simultaneous global release.
Public data shows that Netflix's release of series like Beastars and The Promised Neverland resulted in significant spikes in search interest and Wikipedia page views.
