ABEMA Sets Five-Day Free Run of All 52 YAIBA Episodes from October 28
ABEMA announced on October 27 that all 52 episodes of Ken'yu Densetsu YAIBA will air free in one batch over five days, from October 28 to November 1.

Why it matters
The shape of the offer is the story: a 1993-94 series gets all 52 episodes placed on a fixed five-day grid with a second airing each day, so the whole run is reachable inside a single week rather than dribbled out weekly.

Ken'yu Densetsu YAIBA is the sword-fighting anime adapted from Gosho Aoyama's manga YAIBA, and Aoyama is the author behind Detective Conan.
