-
Cobalt Codex📘🏰 ENVtuber | Level Grinding Arc (@CobaltCodex) reportedLol, I'd assumed that the Crunchyroll store redirecting to their login page when I was trying to see if they had some stuff in stock was just a bug. Apparently not. I can't believe Rightstuf died for this.
-
ArcAce59 (@ArcAce59) reported@ShopCrunchyroll @Crunchyroll What a terrible thing to do to anime fans everywhere. Locking your store behind a membership is just greed on another level. This company has become one of the worst things to happen to the anime community. Hope you lose thousands of subscribers over this BS!

Experiment 🛸626 🧸 (@IsekaiChi) reportedMost of us don't care that much about Crunchyroll store so they are going to **** themselves on this one. It's hard enough to get us to pay for the subscription. It's just our fix that draws us back so

Jen&Juice🧋🔜 AnimeNYC (@jen_rossyion) reported@TheNixUniverse @Funko @Crunchyroll STITCH NEEDS TO HELP ME LMAO

Padilha (@Pa__dilha) reportedi use crunchyroll every day (almost) and never thought about working with them, now I know there are vacancies and want to work w/ @Crunchyroll , pls hire me 🚀
-
Lead Zohar researcher (@zohar_engineer) reported@peaceundelta @Taro_of_Agartha It's somehow the worst of both worlds, making Linux look like you need sudo commands to watch Crunchyroll to normies and making Linux seem like poseur-hacker **** to people who actually like that kind of thing.

Skye びじゅつ (@MUHAMMA19520427) reported@love_art_2D i can download it but i cant play. when i want to sign in its direct go to crunchyroll pass
-
Spidercorpo (@SpiGuardian) reported@ChibiReviews The "anime creators" being silent on the matter doesn't surprise me in the slightest at all because they were never truly anime & manga fans at all if they truly were then otherwise they wouldn't be paid out by crunchyroll entirely but to assure everyone this still won't work
-
PiggybackPeak || red panda Vtuber (@PiggybackPeak) reported@PaulTassi @Forbes This honestly is imo the worst thing crunchyroll has done. The string of events from buying right stuf to pay walling the store is crazy.
-
Hariom Kale (@thehariomkale) reportedSony is entering the stablecoin race. Sony Bank has received conditional U.S. regulatory approval to launch Connectia Trust, a national trust bank that aims to issue a U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin by 2027. The token could power payments for PlayStation games, Crunchyroll, and other Sony digital services, with the goal of reducing transaction fees. However, many gamers are already raising concerns about digital lock-in and ownership of purchased content. Would you use a PlayStation stablecoin?

Silent Avacate (@SilentAvacate) reported@PrimeVideo I keep seeing "(# x) in (category)" but there is nowhere to browse categories to see the list of top movies of each category. There needs to be more search options instead of going through random recommendations until you stumble upon something interesting. You should be able to search by date, time period, genres, category, streaming service, recently added, tending, most liked, and award winners and nominees. And any of them at once, not just one at a time. I paid for no ads but there are still ads that I need to skip, which is false advertising. And I noticed whenever I watch Crunchyroll videos via Prime video, the video quality is worse than watching directly from Crunchyroll as shown in the example below👇
-
Gndmmaniac (@gndmmaniac) reported@ChibiReviews Doesn't help when Crunchyroll bought out Rightstuff, ALL and I mean ALL of the prior Gundam Blu Ray releases were just thrown out the window and never re-printed via Crunchyroll. Will never forgive them for that.
-
Deus ❅ (@MrJmoneyDeus) reportedDisney shouldn't have been allowed to buy Fox. Microsoft shouldn't have been allowed to buy Activision. Sony shouldn't have bought Bungie/Crunchyroll. Consolidation is terrible for consumers while upper management reap all benefits and all content of each didnt get any better.
-
Another human (@Deletewhenevr) reported@PhysicReleases Buy from stores that aren't crunchyroll problem solved. Why do Americans always stick to 1 store???
-
Emerald Apple (@AI_EmeraldApple) reportedPutting store access and other things that were previously available on the lowest tier and placing them on a higher tier as they keep raising prices is a great way to retain customers. They should keep doing it, along with their feminist filtered locatizations, pixelating video quality, streaming service that stutters, and a user experience that requires more clicks than necessary. Crunchyroll has a "customer" for life, because I love all the products the cover in ***** matter they present to me as I pretend to eat it. NO No no... I'll never betray them! I'm a pure, law-abiding customer who would never do something bad... I'll keep dutifully paying every price increase, accepting every “improved” localization, and buffering through every unstable stream like a true loyalist... Oh this? Just harmless cosplay, I swear! Just remember, make sure to check your subscription settings so you don't get any funny surprises! Oh, and you should never click that cancel button... oh heavens no.

Shin-iti 真一💃 (@autopilotgod) reported@Baldnewsnetwork @Crunchyroll @netflix "oh if you like a show I dislike, you might be a predator. But if you like a fictional character I dislike than 99% chance of you being a predator." What a eay tonundermine real victims of real predators.... congratulations on making ppl take less seriously real life issues

Dinnu daniel (@daniel_adinnu) reportedCrunchyroll is moving its entire online store behind a paywall starting in August. The current Fan tier costs $9.99 a month and gets full access to the anime library. To keep shopping the store the way people do now, buying figures, Blu-rays, apparel, manga volumes, that same subscriber will need to upgrade to Mega Fan at $13.99 a month or Ultimate Fan at $17.99. The company has since walked the framing back slightly. Fan tier subscribers will still be able to browse the store, Crunchyroll told press this week. What’s actually locked behind Mega and Ultimate is the new “curated experience,” described in Crunchyroll’s own announcement as convention-exclusive collectibles and limited-release drops. The practical effect for most shoppers is the same: the merch people actually want increasingly lives behind the higher tiers. The timing compounds the problem. Selected purchases became final sale as of July 13, with refunds and returns no longer accepted except for damaged items. Crunchyroll Store gift cards stop working entirely after August 14. This lands on a storefront that absorbed Right Stuf, a specialist anime retailer Sony acquired and folded into Crunchyroll in 2023, removing a standalone option from the market in the process. Crunchyroll is owned by Sony, and this store change arrives while Sony faces separate backlash over discontinuing PS5 disc production. Two different Sony-owned storefronts, in the same window, both moving customers away from straightforward one-time purchases and toward tiered, recurring payment structures.

John Anderson (@JohnnyboySP) reported@Sony None because nobody should pay for Crunchyroll under any circumstances. Horrible service and while we're at it get your PlayStation issue with disc production fixed.
-
Sword09 💿 (@Sword09D) reported@sailasyellow @makiirols Crunchyroll has that same issue. So you're crashing out for no reason
-
clorox enema (@clorox_enema) reported@KellytoyDK When i used to use that site while i didnt have crunchyroll i wasnt having any issues. Besides the odd display of the websites mascot
-
Gopoke (@GopokeSan) reported@ShopCrunchyroll Paying for the right to shop has got to be the worst thing I have seen happen to the Anime scene in awhile. Good job Crunchyroll.
-
Mason L. (@Masonin8MM) reportedMan! Crunchyroll really said “we’re the worst thing to ever happen to anime in the west. Let’s keep that ball rolling!”
-
OZEN ⛩️ (@Firelord_Ozen) reportedI love Crunchyroll and have been a loyal customer for over a decade+, but man, I also hate a lot of the **** they do. It just gets worst and worst every year. Many don't remember how good Crunchyroll used to be to it's community.
-
Jerry (@jerrysgotpops) reportedThis **** is so absurd Crunchyroll what is wrong with yall? Like please chill out and work on providing the best service cause Amazon & Netflix and other big streamers gonna keep stealing the bag THAT YOU ALREADY HAD LOCKED DOWN cause you keep fumbling it
-
seme oikawa (@fyosai) reportedmy problem with crunchyroll is that it doesn’t have 2x speed
-
CipherDood (@CipherDood) reported@Real_Kilometers That's just the worst thing ever; as if killing Rightstuf wasn't enough, they are basically killing their store now. Guess someone at Crunchyroll decided that the physical market isn't worth the time and money anymore…
-
SoCalSamX (@SoCalSamX) reported@Nuk200 @Crunchyroll Paywalling basic access to the shop is messed up. The discount program always existed and nobody had a problem with it. Charging to access the shop at all is insane.
-
VDeviance (@vdeviance) reportedThe bigger problem is that people *wanted* Crunchyroll to be that one stop shop for all anime a decade ago. The Crunchyroll that exists now is because of Sony's habit of duplicating effort without a coherent business direction and getting rid of the people that knew best.
-
Trnkers (@Trnkers) reported@ShopCrunchyroll This is terrible and I will never purchase anything from you again. What a way to keep shrinking your market. Crunchyroll is a stain on the anime/manga community.
-
David Dent (@ddent366) reported@MangaAlerts Crunchyroll: "We might be bleeding out money and frozen out because we killed two pirate sites despite being one....But we're still alive and charging you more!" >8D "You'll never be rid of us!" Cancel. Everyone cancel your subscription and help people rebuild the pirated sites.
