  @Young_Gaki Dude watch for sales on Amazon with the Crunchyroll sets! It’s the aniplex discs so still amazing quality but waaaaay cheaper! I’ve gotten most of them for less than $40

  @Crunchyroll useless ******* company!!! What streaming service can be as broken as your garbage app!!? From skipping to suddenly exiting episodes on its own. What kind of management is this useless to not have simple functions actually work! Time to cancel my subscription!

  They 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 and digital stores. Glad I got this awesome anime on Blu-ray.

  Putting store access and other things that were previously available on the lowest tier and placing them on a higher tier as they keep raising prices is a great way to retain customers. They should keep doing it, along with their feminist filtered locatizations, pixelating video quality, streaming service that stutters, and a user experience that requires more clicks than necessary. Crunchyroll has a "customer" for life, because I love all the products the cover in ***** matter they present to me as I pretend to eat it. NO No no... I'll never betray them! I'm a pure, law-abiding customer who would never do something bad... I'll keep dutifully paying every price increase, accepting every “improved” localization, and buffering through every unstable stream like a true loyalist... Oh this? Just harmless cosplay, I swear! Just remember, make sure to check your subscription settings so you don't get any funny surprises! Oh, and you should never click that cancel button... oh heavens no.

  @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.

  @thomasbland577 @Real_Kilometers This is true but unfortunately they are not combined. With of mercury is a good example, that entire series came out over the course of like 3 months per season, every 4 episodes they'd release 2 blu rays each with 2 episodes and each disk came with stickers and like a booklet. each was 10000 yen. so to get the whole series on blu-ray we are talking like 1000 usd. They do this so the studio makes money, the mid season blu rays help pay for the end season animation and the end season sales of character merch plus blu-ray helps inform the animation committee if they can continue and make a second season. Witch of mercury almost didn't get a second season. Another anime that aired that same year which was controversial was Obama, I think it clocked in at 12 episodes total, and they didn't bother with releasing the blu-ray's separately they had a box set labeled first tier and second tier with 2 disks inside in two separate boxes within a larger collectors box, came with art work, animation cel copies, stickers, a comic, a book cover for the manga, it was a good deal but was 120 usd. If we start buying straight from japan it'll help japanese studios immensely cause the money mostly goes to the studio. How crunchyroll operates is how funimation does, they offer a lump sum to distribute overseas, like, a million bucks mostly less, and they get rights for X number of years. That studio never receives a check again that's why dvds in america like cowboy bebop can have the whole series on it and be 30 bucks at best buy, goes funimation ripped off the studio. Eventually the rights are lost and if not renewed it leaves streaming. We have to stop streaming and order from japan.

  @Crunchyroll YOU ******* IDIOTS. Making a store that even your $10 a month subscribers cant use is stupid as ****. I hope you and Sony crash and burn for hating people who like physical media. Unsubscribing and ive been subbed for over 15 years

  @RandQalan I suppose that is true. I guess I took more issue with the fact that I know most of his stuff even if it has validity he just does for engagement bait and I've seen him made somewhat contradictory points just for the engagement. Crunchyroll definitely is crap.

  @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

  Sony is definitely trying to win worst company of the year. First the announcement to kill off physical games and then Crunchyroll locking their store behind a membership. 🖕

  @SdccStrictly @SD_Comic_Con Still hope for a Saturday crunchyroll event. I think the jrock band that was supposed to headline Friday was DOES and they canceled their event in SD due to travel issues

  @kitty_bit_games Sony: We pissed off everyone with our no-physical media but it has hurt in respect with gamers, how do we fix this? Another Sony Exec: Let's make Crunchyroll store only available to higher tiers so we make....more money! Gamers/Anime Lovers: The hell you morons drinking!?

  The 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.

  Funimation merging with Crunchyroll is the worst thing that ever happened to this block. Toonami 2.0's days seem numbered. 😔💔

  I’m sorry, but the internet is too vast and advanced to be paying for streaming services in 2026 If you unironically use Crunchyroll in this and age, seek help

  I'm saying this if you are okay with Sony's changes with Crunchyroll and see no problems with it. You are the problem, sorry not sorry but this would happen when they took over.

  @GameXverse Buy somewhere else if you can, the only way Sony sees it, is if the wallet doesn’t get fatter, same thing with Crunchyroll unsubscribing Ps+ GTA 6, COD, buy on PC or Xbox (regardless of quality, never thought I say that) Wolverine and other 1st party PlayStation games…at first I was like buy the physical copy…Now I’m just at that point of Anything PlayStation & Sony Don’t buy it

  @BloodVariety I’m a collector, I hit easy, it’s called knowing the ways to minimize errors on there bad website, memberships don’t help, look at samsclub or any other member site, Crunchyroll, etc, they all crash and make it hard to purchase

  The Crunchyroll store functions like the tiny discount section you’d find at the back of a store. The items are limited & all over the place. Worst of all, Crunchyroll's items aren’t even discounted. Why would anyone pay a subscription to shop through them???

  @kalaelizabeth This isn't cool on Sony's part. I'm not buying anything from them for the near future at least. I used to love Crunchyroll, but this action and their removal of select digital purchases and simultaneous removal of physical media is terrible. Shame!

  @Crunchyroll My iPhone version is 16.5, and I can't access the app because of an update that doesn't support it. It requires iOS 17 and above, and I can't update to that version. I hope you can fix this problem and support the latest version. Please.

  @meowndy @SD_Comic_Con @Crunchyroll I hope they still have Saturday crunchyroll at rady. I think Friday is canceled bc their possible headliner DOES has travel issues
