Netflix & the localization company Iyuno, have at last released statements addressing the recent leaks of the upcoming titles that were set to premiere on the streaming platform later this year.
In their statement, a Netflix spokesperson confirmed that a breach occurred through one of its post-production partners.
While Netflix did not specify which post-production company was affected, the company assured fans that they are currently working to remove the leaked content from the internet.
“One of our post-production partners has been compromised and footage from several of our titles has unfortunately leaked online. Our team is aggressively taking action to have it taken down.”
However, the next day, Iyuno, which is a post production company partnered with Netflix for its localization services, put out a statement on their official website confirming the security breach on their end.
The company stated that they are actively investigating the leaks and trying to find the responsible party.
“Iyuno is aware of a recent security issue, involving unauthorized access to confidential content. Protecting our clients’ confidentiality and ensuring the security of their content is our highest priority. We are actively investigating this security breach to mitigate any potential risks and identify the responsible parties. When there are material changes or information we will make further statements.”
The leaked content included the first six episodes of Dandadan anime, the remake of Ranma 1/2, episodes of Terminator Zero, Mononoke movie, as well as episodes of Arcane.
The leaks had sparked outrage on social media, with many fans criticizing Netflix for failing to protect its unreleased content.
Fans were concerned about the potential impact of the leaks on the series’ future, with fears that such leaks might affect these shows’ viewership.
They also urged everyone to refrain from sharing or viewing the leaked episodes as it undermines the hard work of the creators and disrespects the anime community’s standard of waiting for official releases.
