Anime Novakai | Anime News, Updates & Leaks (@AnimeNovakai) reported9/ Sony isn't thinking only about subscriptions. Think bigger. They own or work closely across: 🎬 Production (Aniplex) 📺 Distribution (Crunchyroll) 🎵 Music 🎮 Games 🎥 Movies 🛒 Merchandise That's vertical integration.

Jeffrey J. Hall 🇯🇵🇺🇸 (@mrjeffu) reportedChibi Reviews, an American influencer and apologist for the piracy of copyrighted Japanese animation, made a video calling me a "corporate bootlicker" because of my negative reaction to his posts defending a Vietnamese group that made over $12 million running an anime piracy site. Chibi Reviews described US government assistance to shut down such piracy websites as "insanity." We all know that piracy helped made anime and manga popular abroad decades ago (before people could pay for it), but the world is different today. Chibi Reviews also claimed that Dr. Stone artist @Boichi_Bo1 (Mu-jik Park) is also a piracy apologist, when in fact his posts clearly state that piracy is illegal. Cases where people live in poverty or countries without legal access to copyrighted works call for some leniency, but Boichi has referred to monetized manga piracy sites as a "criminal business." I agree that authorities shouldn't focus on poor people consuming content they can't afford or people living in countries with no possible way to legally consume anime/manga. However, many adults outside Japan who can absolutely afford to legally consume anime and manga pirate it while falsely claiming there is no "convenient" way to pay for it. Telling your viewers it's not terrible to pirate anime because you think Crunchyroll is bad will not change the way the Japanese anime industry approaches their overseas audience. They aren't going to bend to the whims of pro-piracy people. Like it or not, Japanese people, Japanese companies, and the Japanese government are not sympathetic to the continuation of the "piracy actually helps Japan" narrative, especially after the development of paid streaming services that make newly released anime readily accessible to most of the developed world.

Not Ten 🥧 (@KissAllFoxGirls) reported@Rainfrog31 Is your internet speed just ****? It takes 30 seconds to download an episode of anime. Are you poor? A 2tb drive is $40. Streaming sites often don't have the show you want, especially ones like Crunchyroll. Also, I'd rather **** in my hands and clap than give Crunchyroll any kind of traffic. Video and audio quality is always higher when processed through local lossless codecs than when streamed, despite the site telling you you're getting "1080p". You can watch offline if your internet goes down, you're not subject to the whims of your ISP. Most importantly, you now own the media. It cannot be taken away from you by the streaming site suddenly getting taken down, which happens often, or them going corporate and deciding to remove a bunch of content or charge for it (crunchyroll). A lot of the same arguments for owning physical game media apply to downloading anime over streaming it. There is no good argument for streaming apart from "it's convenient and I'm lazy".

Adelheid (@adelheidx333) reported@fordemdolphins Not really cause all these sites have worse subs than the ones on pirating sites lol, and sometimes they butcher quality (looking at you crunchyroll or whatever ur called )

#FreePM_Vigilante ⚜️ (@Vigilante_Blade) reportedSony is no longer a gaming company. It is an enemy. We need to make it crash and burn. I will avoid ALL Sony products of any kind, including Crunchyroll. Cancel all subscriptions.

shrimp 🦪 (@ilovTennant) reportedDecided to give crunchyroll a try and I don't think I have ever seen anime in such good quality omfg I feel like my blindness is cured and I no longer need glasses
-
Angus Dobrenov (@ADobrenov) reported@KinglyRed @KevinDThelwell @Crunchyroll I thought the episode was really good and I wonder what Keito would have said if there was an extra scene where Utage, Tamon and Ouri see Keito return to his apartment and he sees that Ouri has broken his door

Saku (@Sakuszczaw) reportedterrible day not to have a crunchyroll subscription

Hotaru (@Hotaru01878) reported@Crunchyroll @AnimeExpo your agent Archana T closed my chat with a robotic excuse. I pay for Premium in Bangladesh, but you block movies like "Weathering With You". Your terrible regional locks force honest fans into piracy. Fix your catalog now! #FixCrunchyroll

This is the part of your statement that I strongly agree with. The unfortunate reality is that there are hundreds of thousands of people who support piracy despite living in countries where legal streaming services are both affordable and readily available. The idea that this particular group believes it's acceptable to consume someone else's work without permission or without paying for it reflects an incredible sense of entitlement. From my perspective, you can't reasonably complain that your favorite anime never gets another season if you weren't willing to support the previous one through legitimate means in some capacity. While purchasing merchandise, Blu-rays, or manga can also support a series, if someone has easy access to legal streaming and still chooses to pirate everything, I think it's difficult to argue they're meaningfully contributing to that series' success. To be clear, I don't currently have any issue with Chibi Reviews, and I appreciate his willingness to push back against what he sees as woke ideology in anime and gaming. That said, I couldn't disagree with him more on this particular issue.

croatian bsd fan (@Jounossloverr) reportedThere's a problem about watching Wan 2....it's ONLY available on crunchyroll, no other payable app/website. And I'm not sure if it'll be available on the other websites immediately 😭😭
-
Jesse Williams (@jesse_rwilliams) reported@Crunchyroll @madeby_bilibili Crowned in a Hundred Days is a fun watch, but no one bothered to check the audio quality before pushing it out. The intro/outro volume is practically twice as loud as the actual content.

B-day🎂🎊 (@Birthdayfreak67) reported@ChibiReviews Bet you its another Crunchyroll leak. Didn't crunchyroll have a sub issue with an anime premier at AX?

Von ➡️ Anime Expo (LA), Japan Expo (Paris) (@vondbz2) reportedIt’s a little sad that despite approaching various times the staff at @Crunchyroll about how to contact their PR team to put in a request for an interview… the pr email still doesn’t work. I left a card, hopefully I’ll hear back, but we need time to prepare questions… RSVP 🙏

BLUDBUNY (@BLUDBUNNYYY) reported@Pirat_Nation they literealy did it better than crunchyroll...people would pay if there was a good place to watch it that wasn't awful and had all the anime instead of randomly getting rid of it

Jayce ˖𓍢ִ໋˚. c1, c2, c3, & weekly cr4 spoilers (@jacynon) reportedWhy does crunchyroll only have up to 123 for detective conan and then the latest like 300 episodes I can't do this **** guys I need my fix
-
Equilat (@the_equilat) reported@Originul_ @animeupdates I understand why they would do their own stuff and it’s a great idea! It’s completely normal. What I am not found of is how they want to do it. They are saying Crunchyroll prize is unfair and does not promote the anime industry well. But their proposal has the same issues!
-
Dugna (@PDugna) reportedIt sucks for the studio and staff involved, I really wish companies would either sue Crunchyroll or stop doing business with them already. It's a nonstop issue with them.
-
Nande (@Nande318) reported@brositah4 It’s complicated, Shueisha, Pierrot, and TV Tokyo own Black Clover and are able to dictate who distributes what in whatever nation. They didnt allow Crunchyroll to even buy the licensing to those 41 countries. Crunchyroll blocked the trailer to avoid legal issues

Robôzao da Furadeira (@pomboshonem) reported@arcticgalaxies @Jonbaruby The issue is that there's no fansub, all subs are taken straight from Crunchyroll, with all the errors alongside them.

APolygons2 (@APolygons2) reported@SiKthYEXP Not to be that guy but how did you NOT know this. Sony buying Crunchyroll and merging it with funimation was THE news when it happened. And people have complained about the problems ever since.
