U.S. viewers’ interest in Japanese anime and live-action content has soared in the past year, according to a report, as foreign shows find more demand from audiences amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Interest in anime programs gauged from audiences’ behavior online was up 33% in the first quarter from just a year ago in the United States, according to a report by Los Angeles-based Parrot Analytics, a startup that measures audience demand for television content shown on the internet, and market research company Global Connects.

U.S. audience demand for Japanese-language live-action shows doubled in the same period, it said.
