NHK World Japan isn't a VM exclusive MB, it's on Sky and Freesat.

Re: Changes to Virgin TV (2020)
Pluto TV app now available on Virgin Media:
Quote:
Virgin Media has added Pluto TV to its TV platform which is home to 100s of live channels and 1000s of movies & TV shows on demand.
From 9 July, Virgin Media TV customers will be able to enjoy thematically curated premium channels such as Pluto TV Movies and Nosey with full episodes of The Steve Wilkos Show, The Maury Show and The Jerry Springer Show at no extra costs.
The streaming platform also houses binge-worthy single series channels like FBI Files and Unsolved Mysteries, and a variety of branded channels, curated from the libraries of more than a hundred content partners, including parent company ViacomCBS.
Apart from premium series, dozens of fan favourite movies can be discovered on Pluto TV, such as action drama The Last Knights and Roman Polanski movie The Ninth Gate.
In addition, Pluto TV’s VOD selection spans more than 1,000 titles, with hit series Skins, British drama The Commander and Gordon Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen. Virgin Media costumers might also not want to miss Homes Under The Hammer, Fifth Gear or Derek Acorah’s Ghost Towns.
Pluto TV is the latest app made available to Virgin Media TV customers. Over the past few months, Virgin Media has added BBC Sounds, My5 and All 4 apps to its TV platform.
David Bouchier, Chief Digital Entertainment Officer at Virgin Media, said:
“Pluto TV is a great app that provides a diverse range of programmes from top movies to top TV shows. The good news for our customers is that the app is available at no extra cost and joins our collection of top apps on our TV platform.”
Maria Kyriacou, President, ViacomCBS Networks UK said: “At Pluto TV, we strive to create a new digital TV experience for audiences with an ever-expanding universe of original channels and on-demand programming. Being present on a high-quality platform such as Virgin Media helps us target new viewers and brings us closer to our goal.”

Im surprised Sky Cinema Disney is still on air. I thought it would’ve gone as part of Sky’s new deals with Disney.

The output deal is still running so would imagine it’s not going anywhere until that elapses... on the face of it the new animation channel appears to be the eventual successor for when they choose to shut it down.

The Sky Cinema app is still available to view this content, but Sky is closing the app from Tuesday 11 August, so we'd recommend using Virgin TV Go from now on to ensure you don't miss out.
