It only lasted one year but it seems the fan backlash was just too great, as Amazon has decided to discontinue its Anime Strike program.  While another company willing to pay for additional anime licenses is certainly not a bad thing, the fact that Amazon required anime fans to pay for Amazon Prime ($99/year or $10.99/month) and then Anime Strike (an additional $4.99/month) rubbed the anime community the wrong way. Now, Anime Strike is no more, and all of the platforms previously restricted anime titles are available to regular Amazon Prime subscribers.

So if you previously missed out on Anime Strike exclusive titles such as Inuyashiki, Princess Principal, Made In Abyss, Sagrada Reset, Re:CREATORS and Rage of Bahamut: Virgin Soul- now is the time to catch up on what the more "affluent" anime fans were raving about.
