Where to watch the TWEWY anime
The World Ends With You The Animation is simulcasted by Funimation in America. Every episode also becomes available for free exactly one week after release. You can either be patient, or dip in with a premium account.
Neo: The World Ends with You, or Neo Subarashiki Kono Sekai in Japanese, will be a sequel to this anime. Set around three years later, with several new characters and returning faces, Neku included. You should definitely keep an eye on the anime. That way, you will be ready for the release of Neo TWEWY on PS4, Switch on July 27, 2021. The game is also coming to PC via Epic Games Store in Summer 2021.
If you'd like to try out TWEWY yourself: if you have access to a Nintendo DS or 3DS, I personally recommend the original game. Else you can try out The World Ends With you Final Remix on Switch, which is easier to get, but has a disappointing battle system compared to the original, in my opinion.
