Where to watch Death Note (Quick Scoop)

Main streaming platforms

As of recent availability, Death Note (the anime series) is carried on multiple subscription services in various regions.

  • Netflix – Offers all 37 episodes in many regions, including the US and UK, often with both sub and dub options.
  • Crunchyroll – Streams Death Note in supported regions (including the UK and other markets) as part of its anime catalog.
  • Hulu – In the US, Death Note is available with a mix of subbed and dubbed episodes.
  • Amazon Prime Video – In the US, all episodes are on Prime Video; you can stream with a subscription or purchase/rent individual episodes or the full season.
  • Peacock / Pluto TV / Roku Channel / Tubi / YouTube (free with ads) – In the US, there are ad‑supported options that let you watch the series without an extra paid sub, though you may need a US connection.

Because licensing is region‑locked, the exact lineup in your country can differ.

If it’s not available in your region

Some platforms only show Death Note in certain countries (for example, US catalogs versus EU catalogs).

  • Streaming rights are geo‑restricted , so the anime might be on Netflix US but not Netflix in your country.
  • Many guides suggest using a VPN to access US libraries of Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon, but this can violate platform terms of use and may not always work reliably.

The most reliable approach is to:

  1. Search Death Note directly in:
    • Netflix
    • Crunchyroll
    • Hulu (if available in your region)
    • Amazon Prime Video
  2. If it doesn’t appear, check legal aggregators like JustWatch for your specific country to see current official options.

Sub vs dub and buying options

If you care about language options or owning the series:

  • English dub & subs – Netflix, Hulu, Crunchyroll, and Prime Video typically provide both, but the exact mix can vary by platform and region.
  • Digital purchase – You can buy episodes or the full season on services like:
    • Amazon (digital purchase)
* Apple TV / other regional stores (varies by country)
  • Physical media – Blu‑ray and DVD box sets are still sold via online retailers if you prefer owning a permanent copy.

Quick answer recap

  • Try Netflix, Crunchyroll, Hulu, or Amazon Prime Video first for the Death Note anime.
  • In the US, there are also free (with ads) options like Pluto TV, Tubi, Peacock, The Roku Channel, and sometimes YouTube.
  • Use a site like JustWatch for your specific country to see what’s currently available legally where you live.
