-
DeadEyeDucky (@DeadEyeDucky) reportedThe problem is IP law. It’s basically a monopoly grant. This is how you end up with **** companies like Crunchyroll being the only outlet for watching these things.
-
seme oikawa (@fyosai) reportedmy problem with crunchyroll is that it doesn’t have 2x speed
-
Anis Mechu’s (@MattTMage) reported@B_Rabbit843 This kind of feels disengenous here. I dont think these points really address the issue with Crunchyroll and how it affects consumers. They’re still making shows under their license hard to obtain through their stores.
-
Chibi Reviews (@ChibiReviews) reported@MadamSavvy The issue is that Crunchyroll has a massive ownership of physical merch. On top of that reminder they are owned by Sony
-
yahallo (@8MTwagq5CLCDO5I) reported@RichardHead4021 @BalazonNathan Where i get my anime fix now for free without viruses, no money for crunchyroll yet. Since its yt it also works on the tv when no one else is using it.
-
NeoGameSpark (@NeoGameSpark) reportedSony buying Crunchyroll is legit one of the worst things to ever happen to the anime industry. MFers gutted Rightstuf for this nonsense

Tucker Britt (@Ctrlzaltdelete) reported@Crunchyroll y’all ever gonna fix the subtitles on SAO episode 25? I’ve been wanting to continued watching it for like 2 months and they’re misaligned by like a minute and a half
-
The_Doom_Slayer (@ThaD00mSlayer) reportedThey just removed #BLACKLAGOON from Crunchyroll with no warning or announcement of when it will be removed from the streaming platform. This **** is a big problem with streaming services. Glad I got this awesome anime on Blu-ray. Always buy physical media.
-
Neo Mikey 🏇⚖️ (@RobinNico9) reportedCrunchyroll news is absolutely terrible btw. Doesn’t even remotely make sense either
-
TBustin79 (@TBustin79) reported@MangaAlerts Crunchyroll and Aniplex are some of the worst with their prices. And the. The CR change coming in August? Are they trying to not sell their stuff?
-
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.

🇺🇸 Guru Of Syrinx 🇺🇸 (@GuruOfSyrinx) reportedThe Physical Copy market is in a CRISIS! Please Share this. Here is why: Say you want to cancel your subscription and buy Blu-Ray discs. Really build up your collection of Anime.. Step 1: Write down EVERY anime you want before Crunchyroll removes it from your personal Crunchylist. Step 2: Create a wishlist to buy them Step 3: Attempt to locate ANY Physical copies that are available, AND compatible with U.S. Blu-Ray players. Sounds simple enough right? Here is what you don't know: After Funimation merged with Crunchyroll, all physcial disc production from Funimation stopped, making the supply for certain anime limited, and demand high. Scarcity drives up the price of these disconinuted copies. Some go for resale between $150 & $500! Newer copies $35-$60. Now. IF you find your physical copy, and buy it, there is a chance it will not work with your Blu-Ray player, because its possible its only compatible with players from Europe and Asia. So theres another $200-$300 for a working Disc player. Now add up the total of your ENTIRE WATCHLIST! Hell, add up ONE 3-season anime,every season is another $25-$35 if its a newer season. You'll spend $90-$100 on just a single anime. In Summary: This is a Monopoly in the works! How do you stop people from buying physical? Increase the cost of physical copies. How do you increase the cost of physical copies? Remove them. Scarcity drives prices up, people stop buying physical, and everyone flocks to digital. This is just one reason. The other? Is convenience. They know they can make production of discs in a single location and by order. They don't need mass production of discs, just a single location that makes discs by the order. The resale market would eventually heal due to a surplus of movies. This is intentional inflation in the media market. Games, Movies, Anime, all of it is at risk if SONY gets their way with the removal of physical copies. It will not surprise me if Sony announces the discontinuation of blu-ray players next.

Pharuhs🐲🗡 (@Pharuhs) reported@aps_twt7 @Crunchyroll the actual work on animation/production has been confirmed to have started work this year..... I forgot where I found that though, so I guess to be safe, take this with a grain of salt
-
MangoNinja (@man84381885) reported@ChibiReviews Quality of service just isn't there, and i remember crunchyroll criticising alot of anime like goblin slayer and shield hero or change subs like one piece or re:zero to suit there agenda Fans just want to watch anime
-
Kougeru 🐉⛩️ (@Kougeru) reported@FoxSTARSVT The issue is that Crunchyroll owns the rights to most anime. Yes, we can order on other sites like Amazon but check the publisher - most stuff from the last 2-3 years is from Crunchyroll (or Aniplex which is also Sony). They'll likely stop selling outside CR store soon...
-
gurt (@edeniahnum) reported@sillyviaonbarou u want my crunchyroll login
-
𝔸𝕔𝕖♠️🇳🇬☠️ 3 KINGS WILL RISE🇧🇫🇳🇪🇲🇱👑👑👑 (@JohnnyACE562) reportedFunimation merging with Crunchyroll is the worst thing that ever happened to this block. Toonami 2.0's days seem numbered. 😔💔
-
kyuu3@Madoka4 Waiting Room (@kyuubethe3rd) reportedWork is still sucking ***, but I won't get into that... Just been having a lot of mental ****, like usual lmao. Sucks I've come back to this place at such a bad time to be a gamer and an anime fan.... **** crunchyroll man, I miss when it was just this quirky indie company...
-
Robin (@Robin87668217) reported@DoesItPlay1 I’m willing to let them burn themselves down at this point. Between physical media and the **** they just pulled with their Crunchyroll stores, they’re awful. Will never stop speaking out though, Sony needs a reality check.
-
Icasaurus (@plzdobruh) reportedWhy is crunchyroll being SO ******* SLOW on my computer it keeps lagging like every two seconds jfc I have high speed internet @Crunchyroll fix your ****
-
Jeffpiatt (@jeffpiatt) reported@Jman88933 @B_Rabbit843 It was annoying they decided to move the cdn under the worse Crunchyroll ui instead of just slapping the brand on the Funimation now site and import to that since the Animelab staff was working on the site to fix its issues.
-
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.
-
Gaming's Finest (@AGSTG6) reported@myretrolifeshow Want to **** with them and keep it? Disconnect from the internet. Its not just canceling PSN, but taking away your data from their servers makes them a less valuable company as user data is the big currency for corps. Cancel crunchyroll as well if you have that. Give them nothing
-
Dreamer (@Snorlhey) reported@Crunchyroll why do you not have slider that lets you turn on and off the shadow that appear over bright scenes for people who don't have problem with glares?
-
AL (@Avalinh) reported@shutterpoint3 @SD_Comic_Con Was hoping for a crunchyroll concert this year too. Seems the possible headliner DOES had travel issues and had to cancel
-
Ria Alexanders, ⚠️Only Back Temporarily⚠️ (@RiaAlexanders) reported@CecilsTrixieJ Crunchyroll has the benefit of not having anime exclusive competitors, but a lot of the other streaming services have a lot of the mainstream anime. The general population doesn't watch the rest of the catalog, so Crunchyroll's vast options isn't going to help then.
-
MemeBean5 (@Memebean51) reportedThis is why I dont use crunchyroll. They were a good pirating site until they somehow became an offical site and then they ******* ruined it with their subscriptions and prices, overall terrible streaming service
-
Neuisho (@neuisho) reportedAmerican anime fandom peaked around this time, around when fansub groups switched to webm. The big reason is you still had to put extra effort into watching anime. You’d have to get a special media player to play webms and then figure out which fansub group was good. Crunchyroll was around but hadn’t sucked all the air out of the room yet. There were other websites you could watch anime but they were all full of viruses and had terrible quality.
