Viewster is one of the leading resources of Anime shows and is aimed at the North American and European market.
If you’re outside of North America or Europe then it’s not possible to watch Viewster which if you’re an Anime fan will be disappointing. Another interesting fact with Viewster is depending on if you’re in North America or Europe you get access to different content.
For example, in the UK you can watch Naruto Shippuden but if you try to find this on the US site it doesn’t show up and if someone sent you a direct link to a video it just produces a blank page.
Today I’m going to look at how you can watch Viewster from anywhere in the world and also access different content if you’re in an area that it is already possible to watch Viewster in.
Why is Viewster blocked for me?
You’re probably wondering what stops you from watching Viewster in your part of the world.
When you connect to the internet you’re given a unique identifier called an IP Address. This IP Address is sent to websites when you visit them so they know where to send all the files and videos back to. Unfortunately with an IP Address you can pinpoint what country someone is based in and even the area of that country.
If you visit Viewster from outside of North America or Europe then while you can access the website it won’t let you watch any of the videos and instead throw up an error message.
Standard selection for North America & Europe.
If you don’t receive an error message then you’ll simply not see many of the available videos so will be unable to select the wide content that is available to those in North America or Europe.
The solution to watch Viewster anywhere in the world is to get a service that can change your IP Address to one from North America or Europe and you can do this by signing up for a VPN service.

How to watch Viewster anywhere in the world
A VPN is a small program or app for your computer or mobile device that encrypts your internet connection and also alters your IP Address. They allow you to connect to “servers” which can be located anywhere in the world and when you connect to one of those servers you assume the location identity.
So if for example you connected to a VPN server in the United States you would be able to access Viewster content available to those in the US. Just like if you connected to one in the United Kingdom then you would see the UK Viewster content.
A quick search of Google will throw up thousands of VPN companies all looking for your business. It’s hard to find a good provider that will offer the speeds needed to stream video from overseas so I’ve researched the best for watching Viewster anywhere in the world and put together my top 3 picks to save you time.
Just click on one of the providers names to visit their website.
When you’ve had time to look around and signed up to one of the providers above just keep reading as I’ll show you how to use the VPN to watch Viewster anywhere in the world.
How to use the VPN to watch Viewster
VPN providers offer software for desktop and mobile devices.
Once you’ve signed up visit the provider’s website or check the welcome email for links to download their software or app. Once downloaded you can either connect to a server in the United States or United Kingdom and then visit the Viewster website.
You’ll now have access to the full selection. If you’re in North America and you want to access UK content then simply connect to the UK server and vice versa.
In the screenshot below you can see an example of the VPN provider ExpressVPN being used on a Windows 10 computer. All you have to do with IPVanish is select Choose Location and then United States. After around 15 seconds the software will connect and you’re set to go. Just visit the Viewster website and watch as much Anime and other shows as you want.

Don’t forget you can alternate between different regions of Viewster so it’s worth checking out what the European selection has to offer by connecting to the United Kingdom and what the North American selection has by connecting to the United States.
You can alternate between country options with the one VPN package as many times as you want.
