  @peacecommander2 There’s the fact you clearly didn’t understand what I just explained, and then there’s the fact you cannot prove these supposed bots even exist. “A bot costs $10” is not evidence that Re0 fans actually bought any but is just an accusation you invented because the numbers clearly upset you, also crunchyroll likes are one isolated metric on a platform that has repeatedly mishandled Re:Zero through subtitle problems, translation errors, licensing issues and the AI subtitle controversy. A lot of Re:Zero fans simply watch it elsewhere (and even reaction channels that usually only watch Anime on CR watch Re:zero on fan translated episode or Muse Asia for that vert reason) so there is no reason to expect Crunchyroll engagement to perfectly represent the whole fanbase. Re0 tho is ahead across virtually every broader popularity metric people actuall use (even in Japan using Abema, Re:zero blows MT off the surface) and it has won five Crunchyroll Anime Awards while Mushoku Tensei has won none. Those awards are also decided through fan engagement so apparently Crunchyroll users are legitimate when they like an episode but suddenly unreliable when they vote for Re0. You have no evidence of bots, you ignored the platform specific explanation and you dismissed every metric that favors Re0 but are clinging to the one that favors Mushoku Tensei. You’re just coping gang, let it go.

  @lycanoes @icedoll456 RE:Monster has 4.7 stars on Crunchyroll for some reason. I get how an epistolary (work told in past tense in letters/journal entries) works as a book but it needed a LOT of editing to actually work as an overlord esque anime, the day-by-day storytelling got really old really fast

  @dhavu112 @n0velart @HIDIVEofficial Its an alternative to crunchyroll. They pride themselves on good translations , while having a smaller library they try to get high quality content. They also do less censorship.

  @G0ffThew The problem with Crunchyroll is that is a site EXPRESSELY designed for a niche taste. As much as people like anime now, they don't go pay for a anime exclusive streaming site when they can go watch it on Prime or Netflix. Crunchyroll is, ultimately, a niche site for a niche audience. If they're asking money, they better deliver on a boutique treatment, yet, they still don't have something as simple as independent subtitle and audio tracks. They don't tell you when they're going to take down series. They don't even have as good QoL for the same series shared with more generalistic streaming sites.

  @SilentHxH Crunchyroll most recent leak was caused by a synchronization issue with YouTube Primetime involving Fate/strange Fake. Any leaks after that have come from other sources. To be honest, leaks from Crunchyroll itself have been pretty rare over the past few years.

  @alina_archival Simuldub gutted the quality. We used to wait months for thorough English dub/sub DVD releases with bonus outtakes and spoofs. Now Crunchyroll shits out dubs ASAP, so it can be streamed on their ******* site on release. CR does not care about dubs or physical media. they are evil

  @Crunchyroll, I will never pay for your service again. This isn't a demonstration; this isn't a threat; and this isn't an abrupt decision. This is the result of your corporate structure and decisionmaking constantly pushing against your supporting base— your consumers. At every turn, you have undermined the very audience you were supposed to be catering to. Once a pirating site, you now remind people of the days when you used to be useful for the same reasons. My decision to never support you again, despite being a frequent user of your service, is a reflection of how you've failed your core audience. It is a result of countlessly flawed decisions on your part. You have been selling user data, destroying translation veracity, settling for inauthentic fan subs, delisting major series, making users pay an entrance fee to use your half-baked web store, and are now even destroying hopes of collecting the anime films, series, and OVAs that mean so much to us. If you were interested in maintaining a supportive, encouraged consumer base and benefitting your own corporate structure, you would see that me leaving your site demonstrates a total, one-sided failure on your part and your part alone. I would love to have a go-to anime service with a full library and a convenient place to access the media in preferred formats, but your service has outgrown its usefulness now. Why should I pay for a service that won't even properly maintain the sole product it markets? I am never paying for your service again because your service has failed to provide what it should have provided and has promised to provide. This is a business failure that couldn't be any more clearly straightforward. Your company has failed to meet the sole requirement of any business: to properly provide for a consumer's need. If you ever want business in the future, put your consumers first by treating them with respect and caring for the beloved stories you're handling. If this reads as anything else than a collected wake-up-call expressly pointing you to the sole way of fixing your issues, than your corporate model will never succeed. If you can't figure out why people like me are dumping you aside, you'll fade into obscurity.

  @ChibiReviews I always wonder why Crunchyroll has deliberately bad subtitles. What is the purpose? Who does it help? These aren’t even woke they’re just bad

  Sony buying Crunchyroll/Funimation and owning virtually 70% of anime distribution in the West was one of the worst things to happen. And on top of that, anime actors are still underpaid.

  @_ToastedBrioche Understanding doesn't mean you like it. PS Plus is 100% temporary. But people have 100% complained when Netflix loses a show. That's why they've invested in buying so much content outright and making original anime, shows and movies. Gamepass same thing as PS Plus outside of 1st party games you know you have a few months at best. Crunchyroll gave no warning and their entire platform is anime. Now the problem is what people do when this does happen. The industry wants you to pay for anime. But this and missing seasons is why so many prefer underground anime sites. That or you start compiling anime on your own personal server or buying Blu-rays. Anime has a huge fragmentation issue.

  @CipherDood @Crunchyroll Did they actually confirm the Italian subtitles? From what I've seen, all the subtitles come from Toho, which is also why they don't include typesetting. Honestly, that's the worst part.

  NO DISC 💿 NO BUY welcomes ALL GAMERS! Only together can we make our voices heard! We have to keep shouting what this movement is about: CONSUMER RIGHTS - We should be able to buy any game we want, physical or digital! We DO NOT want that option taken away from us! WE WANT TO OWN WHAT WE BUY! - We work hard for our money and its unacceptable that we have to worry about games, films, and anime being ripped away from us because of licence issues or if a live service ends. We DO NOT want an all digital monopoly controlled by SONY. We want competition! We want a thriving 2nd hand market that keeps the industry healthy! We WANT SONY to guve us the respect we deserve and address our concerns! How do we fight? I'll show you: SPEAK DIRECTLY TO PLAYSTATION ON X- Never let them forget that we want PHYSICAL GAMES and that their anti-consumer shenanigans will not be tolerated! CANCEL PlayStation Plus CANCEL CRUNCHYROLL - owned by Sony and they are trying to limit the physical release of anime! DON'T BUY GTA6- why waste $100 on an empty box? NO MORE DIGITAL or NEW PLAYSTATION GAMES - support your local used game store and buy used physical & retro!!! UNTIL Sony reverses course, our PlayStation 5s are closed for business.

  @SilentRadioMist @divinetrickr Crunchyroll literally doesn't hire from unions. They're anti-union. The actual reason is because old dubs took years to make and new dubs are made within weeks of the Japanese, meaning quality is cut to meet demand quantity.
