Netflix Jail 

Netflix's irritating business practice where they release TV Anime series they Acquired/Co-Produced Internationally, months after its original run on Japanese TV and Netflix Japan instead of Simulcasting weekly.

Episodes of these shows are released on Netflix outside of Japan, either as a full season after its original run or in parts that are released over the following months.

While this release style is acceptable for Netflix's ONA (Original Net Anime) series, this release style causes fans to pirate these anime series on Illegal anime streaming sites during the show's original run on Japanese TV and Netflix Japan.

Notable Examples of TV Anime that were stuck in Netflix Jail: Carole and Tuesday, Beastars and Little Witch Academia.
Person 1: Hey Man, I can't wait for Great Pretender to come out on Netflix!!!
Person 2: Sorry man, but the show is in Netflix Jail. That means that you're gonna have to wait for the show to end in Japan to come out on Netflix.
Person 1: Dammit Netflix!!!!
