  I wanted to study English through anime, so when I tried to register for Crunchyroll in the past, I ran into this issue😭 I use Netflix instead, but I found that some episodes don’t have ENG available. I became curious about why certain episodes don’t have an English version🤔

  @OKgamer01 Most of the errors are minor, there are cases where the original meaning gets distorted, but Crunchyroll still tends to have good subtitles compared to other services, especially for languages other than English.

  I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume crunchyroll is likely never gonna hire her again cos it's more trouble than it's worth lol. Sad to see.. Nadolny was definitely one of my favourite VAs.

  @Crunchyroll Dude... You're worth millions being Sony's ***** but you Cannot even get the audio fixed for the English Dub. Also on One Piece Ep 409's English audio is broadcasting a completely different anime called Tonikawa. Fix your audio issue my dude.

  BREAKING NEWS: Upon researching the situation, I have confirmed Crunchyroll is indeed strangling Muse Asia. For those that need an explanation on what this means. Muse Asia is an official company that translates anime with English Subtitles for people can watch for free. Their subtitling work is impressive and leagues beyond CR's. When Re:Zero Season 3 was airing for example, the comparisons between Muse's and CR's was happening weekly. It was outright embarrassing how bad Crunchyroll's subtitles were in comparison. So fast-forward to right now and its clear as day what is happening. First off Crunchyroll is gaining a larger monopoly by the year and taking over the Western Market slowly but surely. Muse Asia is a threat to them especially since they got embarrassed by them. Factor in that Muse Asia offers anime for free legally. That doesn't sit right with a monolithic company as Crunchyroll owned by Sony. Now we get into the issue right now. Multiple big titles like Re:Zero, Classroom of the Elite, and Reincarnated as a Slime are being delayed on Muse Asia's platform by two weeks. This means in those two weeks, everyone will be forced to watch Crunchyroll's version that is paid for. Even if the subtitling work is inferior you can't make a comparison until two weeks have passed. By that time nobody will likely be watching it on Muse Asia's platform to begin with. They are selectively making sure big titles are ripped from them for Muse Asia gets strangled out of the market and viewship. If this isn't a clear case of aggressive tactics to control the market, then I don't know what else could classify as it.

  Crunchyroll gatekeeping and sabotaging Re Zero by abusing their authority as the main distributor is beyond greedy Muse Asia stepped up and provided a superior user experience and now they're being held back 2 weeks bc of corporate greed Vile disgusting practices that doesn't help Re Zero nor the audience, only Crunchyroll's bottome line This is beyond pathetic when a company resorts to suppressing competiton like this rather than improving the product and winning the customer over Capitalism can be beautiful when you have a game where innovation and competiton isn't gatekept by monopolies who don't even try anymore You as the customer can make an impact by choosing not to play Crunchyroll's game Forget about Echidna, this is the greed they talk about in the bible

  @CuteAndFunnyAlt I think you're missing the point.. Geoblocking the country that makes anime should be a problem.. CR is the reason EN versions of anime aren't the same.. it's Crunchyroll who has the market on Western releases.. It's not geo blocked in Japan because there's other companies to distribute it but the distributed EN version is a different version.. That's the issue and saying otherwise is wild regardless Like they're not the same.. Any Author should be concerned about this as altering the work of the author should invalidate the copyright

  @Oxy_FG @Crunchyroll Well the first episode was 90 minutes long so if we do the math we’d have 6 errors in the same length 🗿

  Honestly, fk you @Crunchyroll. First, you EOS'ed my favorite gacha game (Princess Connect) and now you have the fking gall to try and usurp Muse Asia by pressuring them with backhanded tactics, not to mention your absolutely ****** translation quality. Seriously, fk ya'll.

  @ArcherSys @SmashJT @Crunchyroll Nothing. It's licensing issues.

  @Crunchyroll @TheAnimeAwards make sure you fix the UI, it was a sin to put the full-screen button at the top.

  I know some of y’all are slow, but damn. This is how ALL streaming platforms work, not just Crunchyroll. It’s how they manage content licenses for all areas, and make sure that they don’t show in places where they don’t have the necessary licenses. Come on, this isn’t hard.

  Hearing that Crunchyroll is blocked in Japan because wokies who work there know they'd get the licenses for the anime they "translate" (read: butcher and vandalize) revoked and cost them their jobs as me worried for any potential English airing of the Suikoden anime.

  Priception (@Real_Priception) reported 39 minutes ago

  @G0ffThew This whole newest "drama" about Crunchyroll made me realise how dumb the average anime fan is. Like I saw one saying someone should make "the Steam of anime" and when I pointed out it wouldn't work due to licensing he and others just started throwing insults and blocked me.

  @Crunchyroll @TheGuy31692156 Please guys, can you fix the subs that say “city” instead of country? It’s a very big deal that kinda makes everything make very little sense

• 
  Penguin (@kitten_ruby) reported 46 minutes ago

  @Giganta88 @kazgar69 @AyakaMods It's not a controversy. It's just how licenses work. Crunchyroll doesn't have the rights to stream in Japan because the Japanese companies didn't sell them to CR. The kept Japan streaming rights for Japan companies. This is the same with any streaming company.

  @ToonHive Wish Funimation didn’t shut down because we would still have the ability to watch some shows for free with ads and the English Dubs would exist. Funimation getting absorbed by Crunchyroll was terrible. We still don’t have an English dub on SGT. Frog.
