jak (@jakthesac) reported@sskkfan Crunchyroll doesn’t let u screen shot so I took a photo of the screen but my phone camera quality sucks
-
Thisguy (@name15911431) reported@G0ffThew Genuine question at this point what does Crunchyroll offer the anime community that Netflix doesn't? Sub quality is about the same or worse, a very similar anime collection, Similar release schedules.

Zealous Seraphim ☦️ (@ZealousSeraphim) reportedI really want to support their releases of this on YouTube. Because it’s somewhere that’s not Crunchyroll. Plus this show seems to work well with a slower viewing.

lee♡ (@blendermand0) reportedsomeone give me their crunchyroll login PLEASE😭😭😭 I need to watch hetalia so bad....
-
Odd-Eyes (@OddEyesDragoon) reportedSony 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.

RetroGamerKong (@RetroGamerKong) reportedGood Morning, X! Happy Sunday! What are your plots? Your plans? Your plunderings for today? Busy day, gang! Cleaning, Gym, and Retro Gaming!!! I popped in Shadows of the Empire the other day and I fell in love with my N64 all over again! Might pay Rogue Squadron and Pokémon Stadium 2. I might even work on fixing all my cords in the ManCave. My PS2 is calling my name... I also plan on being active on X today. I'll be replying to all the Phils, Lils, and Bills. More importantly, the Sony Sills. ------------- Before I forget, here is a special message for our readers: Daily Reminder on How to Fight Sony PlayStation with your wallet and voice: KEEP HARASSING PLAYSTATION ON X- Keep the community notes coming! People need to be warned if the dangers of an all digital future! Continue to remind SONY that we want PHYSICAL GAMES!!!! 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. NO DISC 💿 NO BUY, MAKE SONY CRY

TaiSho 🇯🇲 🇯🇵 (@Taishoja) reportedCrunchyroll just nah work? It’s been 2 days

Matt is not funny (@JudgementalBear) reported@PlayStation You're canning physical games, your Crunchyroll subsidiary is reducing physicals and paywalling physical anime purchases. You have set fire to decades of good will and you're not addressing anything. Fix your **** please. The idiots you've placed in charge need to go.
-
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?
-
RainyQuot (@rainyquot) reported@MADNESS_NH_97 @Crunchyroll @cg_orange_inc Nightow is open-minded to any interpretation of his work, doesn’t change the fact Orange had 0 respect for his content the way they handled it. The old Trigun anime ironically adapted the original manga better with less budget. 💀
-
Candace Barrow (@Poetic_Aphro) reported@Crunchyroll @OnePieceAnime Help I can’t get the subtitles 🥹🥹 I need to learn Japanese ASAP
-
Chris @ Lumiose (@Tsukento) reportedThe problem stems more with the fact that Sony purchased Funimation, The RightStuf and Crunchyroll, merged them all into one company, and did everything they could to make anime LESS accessible.
-
someone (@Jack85768122) reported@ChibiReviews Sony is a terrible company. Sony owns crunchyroll

peebert (@ErhardtKyle) reported@Crunchyroll @Dexerto Fix your store crunchyroll

Riley (@RileyEatsGood) reported@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.

Drathrouse (@AdamPomeroy16) reported@Crunchyroll I have a fundamental question. Tomb raider King has no English subtitles. I can’t watch it. Also, I became a legend after my 10 year long stand. Episode three has nothing to choose from. I pay a subscription. Hello please fix.

Will B. (@JustWill28) reported@Crunchyroll you need to fix/update ur app the subtitles aren't working for dub shows and the voices are talking ahead of what the characters say. Please fix asap
-
Marshal Amir Grey (@Marshall_A_Grey) reported@iammal @animeupdates The problem with Crunchyroll, however, is that they are worse than what Funimation was, even with all it’s flaws, when it came to keeping up with licenses.
-
DovahKiller Unchained (@DovahkillerU) reported@ChibiReviews I’ll never tire of saying it: Crunchyroll is the worst site for watching anime
-
Flugels Coin (@Trxy02) reported@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.

Franklin Gonzales (@frgonzdev) reported@earth_ish Zen browser is amazing my only gripe with it is not being able to watch copyrighted content like prime video, hulu, and Crunchyroll due to the licensing issue. If it wasnt for that id use that browser instead of any other

Jen&Juice🧋🔜 AnimeNYC (@jen_rossyion) reported@TheNixUniverse @Funko @Crunchyroll STITCH NEEDS TO HELP ME LMAO

Monado Boy 🌹 (@ThePeakEnjoyer) reported@SilentRadioMist @divinetrickr The main anime dubbing companies rn are Crunchyroll (Sony), Aniplex (Sony), Viz Media, and Sentai Filmworks. There’s also Studiopolis, Netflix and Ocean Studios. Sony is super anti-union (even on the Aniplex end), not sure on Viz, and Sentai has always had terrible dubs.
-
Shaun Bizzle (@Shaun_Bizzle22) reported@AssassinBell @Crunchyroll @BangZoom I think that would help the chances of getting Season 2 being dub!

Doom miller game and kay miller 🇬🇩🇯🇲 (@DoomMillergame) reported@Rena_Raiden Netflix better service than crunchyroll and I thing Netflix Only problem is Licensing and sony do not like Shere Netflix and Disney plus and better, everything on multiple platforms and shere
-
Rustle 🐺 (@RustleWolfie) reportedOh **** you genuinely! Blu-rays were my go-to way to watch anime shows I like. Crunchyroll was already getting awful with no restocks or limiting releases in general, but removing it entirely? **** this site and **** Sony!
-
Monado Boy 🌹 (@ThePeakEnjoyer) reported@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.
