Let's get straight to the core discussion about the official Japanese movie streaming platforms that you can try yourself. These platforms have a large collection of Japanese movies and continue to grow every day.
Generally the services they offer come in the form of streaming services. And of course, because of its official nature, Vicigers need to spend some money for subscriptions. Here is the list:
Who doesn't know this platform? Netflix is indeed the 'vanguard' for enjoying films from various regions in the world, including Japan. There are a number of famous titles that you can find there.
Starting from titles that have aired on the big screen such as the Rurouni Kenshin series, Hayao Miyazaki's line-up, various anime adaptations/live actions, to exclusive series such as House of Ninjas, Chastity High, etc.
Next up is a streaming platform from a tech giant that started its rise through the e-commerce industry: Amazon! As a business octopus, it’s only natural that this company is also entering the entertainment market.
Currently, Prime (written in lower case) has become a subsidiary of Amazon that is present as Netflix's biggest competitor. You can watch almost all Japanese movies (non-exclusive) on Netflix.
And the final recommendation from VCGamers is an integrated subscription streaming service. Disney+. Unlike the two platforms above, Disney+ looks more like a digital/cable television service with a variety of channels.
There, you can choose channels that are likely to feature Japanese film content. One that is currently getting the attention of film lovers is hulu (lower case) which is famous for its Shogun (2024) series.

The first is Pahe. For those who enjoy pirated content (especially movies and the like), this site is already too 'legendary'. There are many pirated films available there, including those with a 'Japanese' feel.
This is equally legendary, but specifically for the context of Indonesian netizens: Layar Kaca 21. Because it is a 'domestic' product, many subtitles are available in Indonesian, including films with Japanese dubbing.
