I've been using iTunes to subscribe to ANNtv since the beginning.
It's been working great so far where new episodes show up whenever ANNtv makes new ones.
But for some reason last 2 episodes did not show up in iTunes. I've been to iTunes Store to search it manually but last episode to list is "AX08 Cosplay Bliss".

Unfortunately, yes. Maybe there is a change in the iTunes distribution settings from global to US-only?

We've stopped offering ANNtv on iTunes. Every single iTunes download costs us money (bandwidth) and earns us none (no web ads, no video ads).
So we've discontinued the iTunes version in favor of the web version, through which we won't go bankrupt.
Also, for copyright reasons, we don't always have permission to make downloads available for some of the content we sometimes include. This hasn't been a major issue yet, but it remains a potential issue.
If we could get someone to sponsor the iTunes version, we'd definitely put it back for the episodes where we're allowed.

Say what you like about Macross 7, it sticks to its guns from beginning to end with a consistency of tone and intention that’s admirable.― Compared to watching modern anime's shorter single-season lengths, completing a watch-through of Macross 7's fifty-two episodes feels like a real achievement. Forty-nine of those were broadcast on TV weekly, without a break, from October 2004 until September 2005...

Your Forma’s first three volumes are, on the whole, excellent. A perfect blend of science fiction and mystery, the stories deal with strong plots and characters that are constantly growing.― Mystery as a genre doesn't always intersect well with speculative areas of fiction like fantasy or sci-fi. Most people will tell you that's because mystery is rooted in logic and fact-finding, things that can be...

Everything in Mecha-Ude Volume 1 is so close to the anime that, at times, it almost feels like reading through storyboards.― During Fall 2024, here on ANN, I reviewed studio TriF's debut anime series Mecha-Ude as it aired weekly. Overall it was a great 12-episode show, densely packed with enough plot to fuel a series twice its length, elevated by wonderfully kinetic action animation heavily influenc...
Coming to North America next month, reporter Asha Bardon calls the Sailor Moon The Super Live performance a "brilliant" mix of light show, dialogue, interpretive dance, and circus skills.― How do you condense the first arc of a best-selling, beloved magical girl manga into ninety minutes with less than twenty performers and time left for a musical encore? Surprisingly well, actually. English Sailor ...

Sapkowski's The Witcher books acquired adaptations in the form of the CD Projekt Re...
This model of repeated actions on similar environments can work if the quality is there – I’ve certainly enjoyed such games in my time – but usually for some combination of meaningful extrinsic and intrinsic rewards.― SYNDUALITY Echo of Ada is a game which makes a strong first impression before almost immediately nose-diving into humdrum monotony. The bones of the setup are strong enough to support ...
