On January 17, 2012, the streaming service Crackle, added Animax to their lineup for the North America region, marking the network's first launch in the United States. Its programming has included for the first time several of Animax's English language dubs, including that of shows that had yet been adapted into English and had only aired in Southeast Asia and South Asia prior, such as "Nodame Cantabile", "Yōkai Ningen Bem" and several others. Towards the end of 2013, the Animax branding was dropped, though Crackle continues to stream anime titles.
