cawcawTV (@cawcawTV) reportedThe most insane and unfair thing about the Bleach Copyright Strike issue is how 1 bad faith contractor can ruin an entire community during the peak of Bleach, and nothing will be done about it @VIZMedia isn't the one issuing these strikes, it's an abuser of the brittle copyright system that uses bots to scrape anything related to their IP and will spam DMCA takedowns, not just on YouTube but across various social media platforms They send emails threatening you with lawsuits and demand a written admission of guilt, and then they use these receipts to approach companies like VIZ to be a hall monitor when VIZ themselves have no idea what's actually happening on the frontline They abuse their authority and issue fraudulent DMCA takedowns envoking VIZ's name Just search "removeyourmedia" on twitter or reddit and you'll find people being harrassed by them for the past decade + If one was leaking and reuploading the anime episodes with 0 transformation to operate under fair use and had the intent of it being a market replacement for the source, that's when DMCA actually would matter However that's not what the vast majority of the Bleach content creators are doing that are targetted by these takedowns I understand how many perceive reaction content to be lazy and parasytic but all it does is actually create more motion for Bleach and acts as advertisement to support the brand even more Why do you think companies like Crunchyroll sponsor big influencers to stream and react to their anime ? It's because influencer marketing is the best form of advertisement for their return on investment The difference is that grassroots content creators advertise and market the anime without being paid by corporations and they still get ****** over because of how easy it is to abuse copyright law The true cancerous parasytes of this ecosystem are the abusers of the copyright system that makes a living off of fraudulent DMCA takedowns which doesn't help Bleach but only serves to fill their own little pockets Ignorant corporations will pay these bad faith contractors to kill the motion for their own product Everything about this process is beyond retarded This is the unfair reality of making anime content

🏝️ enjoy the summertime sun ☀️ and surf 🌊 🏖️ (@Kisuru) reportedSony/Crunchyroll focusing less on physical releases for anime/manga will continue to be a problem for collectors. When they pull several digital titles at once without warning and access is lost, it'll make them wish they had physicals. They did it recently, and it's a headache.
-
Shane Greene (@realShaneGreene) reported@MaximillianLG I would imagine Crunchyroll for the average consumer. For the highest quality search into both Seed of Might and Neo-Raws.
-
Kaiju of the Grotto (@Kaiju_GeekGrtto) reported@MokuMekaPilotVT @PegasusSSK Harmony gold single handedly screwed macross outside of Japan. Also note, Sony is managing the IP for harmony gold (via crunchyroll) so hg is just collecting a paycheck for someone else's work
-
Kaguya_samaa (@TTV_Kaguya) reported@profchise crunchyroll are part of the problem, but the real problem are normies ruining alot of hobbies
-
CJ (@CJFIVEGaming) reported.@Crunchyroll please fix the English audio on the start of SAO Season 3 Episode 7 😭
-
Spidercorpo (@SpiGuardian) reported@ChibiReviews The worst part about this whole thing is the fact that Crunchyroll comes out to be the good guys entirely all because of the fact that they didn't even do anything that ended the drama they only did something that indirectly ended the drama entirely
-
Okeanix (@Okeanix1) reportedCrunchyroll could easily fix this by allowing only paying subscribers to vote, but they don’t. Crunchyroll allows ratings and votes from people who don’t even have a subscription to watch the episode. They use this to their advantage to make platform more valuable (fake).

elianna (@6eatle) reporteddude my tv doesn’t work with crunchyroll😢😢😢i wanna watch. Etalia ok the tv😭😭😭

Mafty105 (@gundam_news105) reportedI won’t stick my head in the sand and say this isn’t a problem or there’s no concern, I’m always wary of the negative western influences on anime. But seeing as it’s an one day event and looks to be a gloried PR event for Crunchyroll, I don’t think anything as nefarious as the “WEF of anime” or the “end of anime”. It might just be “hey James Gunn, you wanna invest in some DCU anime?” Frankly, anime fandom and discourse has been shot since Post-Covid with the influx of hypersensitive larpers. I don’t normally comment on this stuff because I don’t really do the drama thing.

Olivia Chen (@OliviaChen98743) reported@Crunchyroll mained a broken character for months just to watch a patch notes screenshot end it all

Strauss McKai (@Darth_Phantom7) reported@UnpluggedRetro Practical ways people can reduce support and help beyond the PlayStation Blackout. Subscriptions: Cancel PlayStation Plus, any Sony-linked streaming or music services where available, Crunchyroll if subscribed, and related network services. Check account settings on PlayStation Network and other Sony platforms for recurring charges. Social media: Unfollow official Sony, PlayStation, Sony Pictures, Sony Music, and related studio/label accounts across platforms. Purchases, viewing, and listening: Avoid buying PlayStation hardware/software/games, Sony electronics (TVs, cameras, headphones, etc.), new Sony Music releases or physical media, and tickets/merchandise tied to Sony Pictures films or shows. Skip theatrical releases, home video, and streaming of Sony-distributed content when alternatives exist. Stock: If you hold Sony shares (traded as SONY on NYSE or 6758 on Tokyo), you can sell them through your brokerage. Individual retail sales have limited impact on a large-cap company, but collective action can signal sentiment.

ِ (@midollz) reportedcrunchyroll fix this buffering nonsense on the ps5 before i actually kms
-
Vector (@DTR_Vector) reported@Aronstann1 ur reply kinda tells me u do pirate anime cause streaming subscriptions are not no 5 dollars bruh. I would know, I have multiple for netflix, crunchyroll, amazon etc I've put a ton of money into this game anyway, so frankly I think I paid my dues plenty for the creators hard work. Even more so given how predatory the business model is in the first place.
-
Gerard Krupa (@uxian) reported@Favwontmiss I complained to Crunchyroll once about an issue with their app. They blamed it on the number of devices (not the number of concurrent streams which was never more than 1) and told me I needed an upgraded subscription despite their Ts & Cs permitting any number of installs.

fai (@PrinceFaisuka) reportedwow this bleach **** sounds awesome too bad crunchyroll is THE WORST
-
Super Dan # (@SuperGodSnes) reported@HT2487 I found the series on Crunchyroll, but the graphic quality seems different, and I couldn't find that scene in episode 16. Do you know if there's another older version of this anime? Or the screen time when that scene appears?
-
Jens B. (@sJake487) reported@anime_shots piracy was never gone nor weaker at any give time since the mid 90s and always offered the better quality even since crunchyroll existed.
-
PCA Live (@PCALive) reported@PileofAir @AnimeDubUpdates @Crunchyroll Agreed. The worst girl(the most immature one) winning was ****. I dropped the anime as soon as the manga concluded that way.
-
Cunnilinguist (@gourmetmogodu) reportedCrunchyroll is so frustrating why am I logged out and my password doesn't work anymore!?
-
Dad (@ClaymoreClown) reported@betanonbeet I’ve been saying that for years, glad to see there’s more priconne fans that wish crunchyroll the absolute worst
-
Roderick Wigand (@Ricky_Wigand) reportedWhat ******** is your problem?! "Let me buy out RightStuf and then kill physical media!" I would love nothing more than your you and the fuckwits at Sony than to go out of business for actively doing everything you can to kill physical media! @Crunchyroll
-
Riley (@RileyEatsGood) reported@TheNintenDope Ah, the good old days on Anime Planet. Before Crunchyroll came in making their own originals, screwing up subtitles, and inviting the worst of the worst to tell us how much of a “fan” of anime they are. Oh, and for Sony purchasing them and ruining any chances of Blu-Rays.
-
kuzu (@thatskuzu) reportedcrunchyroll on pc web genuinely has the worst interface ever, if you skip forward like more than twice your screen ******* freezes and you have to reload the page 😭
-
Jeff (@The_Jeff_Larson) reported@Pirat_Nation Don't forget @Crunchyroll has basically obliterated their support for customers. Good luck if you have an issue, be ready to chargeback
-
Allen 🇻🇪 (@Allew5717) reported@Okeanix1 If the work is truly so hated, why does it have so few dislikes on official platforms like Crunchyroll, or on trailers from official social media channels? It doesn't make sense.

Ssjtruncks90 (@ssjtruncks90) reported@EmiyaR70 I watch what I want to watch. Don’t really care about scores or the reviews from the news sites. Only exception was when Goblin Slayer first came out. But that because Crunchyroll gave it a kid friendly rating(oops) to start, so I watched to see what the whole issue was about.
-
adnexus (@Adnexus_) reported@OjeenKailon @Thrax117 @anilabz Crunchyroll doesn’t have rating issues like IMDb. You can hate on the platform all you want nobody is glazing it but it’s a bona-fide guarantee that Mushoku has hella good reviews on Crunchyroll
-
Mitch (@MizNizzle) reported@Crunchyroll really need some help cancelling my sons subscription. He can’t log in to cancel it.
