It started five days ago (5th June to 3rd July) but I only just came across it now! Could be of interest to some people here, since we have a few Japanese learners and a couple doing Super Challenges. It's free and it seems to have a good variety of genres, and a few shorts as well as feature-length films. They'll also be showing some TV series in the second half.

There are some geographical restrictions: it's only available in certain countries, and not all films can be watched in all countries.

So this has been a slight disappointment so far: most of the films I'm interested in aren't available in my region, and the player doesn't work on Linux. Hopefully others have better luck!

Darn, I really wanted to watch BL Metamorphosis. Well, "We're Broke, My Lord" looks pretty funny so I think I'll try that and some others too. Thanks for the link!

Was totally unaware of this, thank you so much for the link! Definitely going to watch a handful of these.
