About Remow

Remow Inc., established in November 2021, is a company focused on the global distribution and promotion of Japanese entertainment content. The company was founded by Akira Ishii, who serves as the CEO, to address the issue of limited legal access to Japanese content worldwide, which has led to widespread piracy. Remow's mission is to create a robust international distribution network to deliver Japanese entertainment, such as anime and period dramas, to a global audience through legitimate channels.

The firm operates through three main business segments: Distribution, IP Production, and Production. The Distribution arm sells a diverse portfolio of Japanese content to broadcasting and streaming platforms globally. The IP Production division manages the creation and marketing of merchandise, as well as planning events and entertainment facilities to maximize the value of intellectual property. Finally, the Production business is involved in planning and producing original Japanese content, often in collaboration with international entertainment companies.

Remow has developed several branded channels to cater to specific tastes. "It's Anime" is a global brand that delivers the latest news and full-length episodes of popular Japanese anime. For the Latin American market, the company operates "Anime Onegai," a dedicated Japanese anime streaming service offering high-quality Spanish and Portuguese subtitles translated directly from Japanese, along with Spanish dubbing for most titles. Recognizing the global appeal of another Japanese genre, Remow launched "SAMURAI VS NINJA," an entertainment brand that distributes period dramas and movies. To achieve its goals, Remow has secured significant funding and strategic partnerships with major players in the Japanese media landscape, including Shueisha, Sumitomo Corporation, Toei Animation, and others, leveraging their IP and global networks to accelerate its business expansion.
