Crunchyroll Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Vee_Mix (@VmoneyR) reported@JazzLikesToGame @Crunchyroll @lagoon_revy Good thing I bought the blu ray and dvd set many years ago. Saved myself from trouble there
-
SoCalSamX (@SoCalSamX) reported@Nuk200 @Crunchyroll Paywalling basic access to the shop is messed up. The discount program always existed and nobody had a problem with it. Charging to access the shop at all is insane.
-
Xenasta (@PileofAir) reported@AnimeDubUpdates @Crunchyroll After the terrible ending it’s not worth continuing with this property.
-
Murilo087 (@murilo087_) reported@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.

LowMeHigh (@Witcher_Demon) reported@LeanaLovings It's awful too cause you're a fan of a series and you want to own the dvds then Crunchyroll was one of the few companies that officially licensed blu-rays (which is what Japan typically produced and those sales determined if a new season got made). But now it's basically impossible to collect dvds unless you're importing them with no subs and off a secondary market. When Funimation ended it was signaled the monopoly Crunchyroll has in the western anime market. We don't get to own anything anymore sadly
-
_σ_ (@fnrihU94Nue) reported@JoeLongBalls The video is just ripped from crunchyroll, the program sources the videos from a piracy site. That being said, ani-cli is *** and doesn't work half the time, and torrenting is infinitely superior.
-
Candace Barrow (@Poetic_Aphro) reported@Crunchyroll @OnePieceAnime Help I can’t get the subtitles 🥹🥹 I need to learn Japanese ASAP
-
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!
-
Melo #supportphysicalmedia (@Melothehm) reported@IGN Crunchyroll is owned by Sony who also owns Playstation. Makes sense because they are the worst company on the planet atm
-
🇺🇸 Guru Of Syrinx 🇺🇸 (@GuruOfSyrinx) reportedPhysical. I have a right as a consumer to own what I purchase. If Corporations like Sony eliminate my ability to own my media be it games or anime (crunchyroll) then that should be grounds for a lawsuit. I remember when you could go to the store, got the Blu-Ray, DVD, AND Digital code all for $60 in a BUNDLE. Now look where we are. All sold seperately, or not at all. Subscription only. Digital ownership is NOT ownership. It is simple a corporation giving you permission to watch it on their servers. WAKE UP! Support physicial media while we still can!
-
Kalos Resident Seth Carnes (@seth_man) reportedSony basically controlling all of the anime in the West with Crunchyroll and Warner Bros’ constant financial issues will sadly eventually be the end of Toonami.
-
RetroGamerKong (@RetroGamerKong) reportedNO 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. NO DISC 💿 NO BUY, MAKE SONY CRY

Another human (@Deletewhenevr) reported@PhysicReleases Buy from stores that aren't crunchyroll problem solved. Why do Americans always stick to 1 store???
-
Jacob Lucas (@JacobLu83623033) reported@TMullenixVO @Crunchyroll So this time we got “The Neaty-Freaky Relative”, “The Patriotic Freeaboo”, “The Gentle Giant”, “The Handsy Masseuse”, and “The Coddled Knight”. That relative though may drum up problems pretty quick.
-
UltraAfroman403 (@ultraafroman402) reported@landro1231 Makes me want to say that the FUNImation/Crunchyroll dub would have no problems using original OSTs.
-
Squirrels (@0xSquirrels) reported@An_Awesome_Dude companies only listen when they see that the user base takes a stand and they start having their revenue affected. if you have problems, do something. you can watch anime on other platforms like amazon, netflix, hulu, hidive and you can use piracy sites if people really want to create change, stop your subs crunchyroll has proven time and time again that they have anti consumer behaviors, they sold data without consent, they were hacked so they cant even protect your data/credit card info, they took away peoples purchased content during the merge from funimation, and they have been accused of union busting quite afew times.
-
Spidercorpo (@SpiGuardian) reported@ChibiReviews The "anime creators" being silent on the matter doesn't surprise me in the slightest at all because they were never truly anime & manga fans at all if they truly were then otherwise they wouldn't be paid out by crunchyroll entirely but to assure everyone this still won't work
-
CrashD (@CrashDunning) reported@makiirols This didn't used to be a problem when the people doing the subtitles were fans who actually cared. Now it's corporations like Crunchyroll and y'all refuse to pirate all of their shows so you get what you deserve.
-
𝕄𝕠𝕥𝕚𝕧𝕒𝕥𝕚𝕖𝕕 (@Little_Yamper) reported@ChibiReviews My sole reason for staying subscribed to Crunchyroll is to finish the Devil May Cry series; once done, I’m deleting it. Removing quality shows while retaining mediocre content is utterly nonsensical.
-
Dr. Austin Smith (@defmetal) reported@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
-
Oshu (@Oshu741472) reported@naranciagaming Unfortunately not a MAL issue, on any anime sites that allow comments they'll be full of homophobia and bigotry. I believe that's why crunchyroll took down theirs because it was just vile as ****
-
TheHarshReality (@KingCheesus) reportedCanceled ps plus, canceled crunchyroll, and now with the lack of actual heat being dropped to gamepass I think it might be time to cancel that as well. These sub services go up in price and down in quality and a good game once a month doesn’t justify the service
-
ILOVEPIE (@ILOVEPIEsynergy) reported@Crunchyroll NO DISK NO BUY Fix your customer service sony. I want my games and anime on disk.
-
RetroGamerKong (@RetroGamerKong) reportedGood Morning, X! Its a five alarm fire at work, so I'm not going to be on today, gang. Never fear, I shall return! And remember: KEEP HARASSING PLAYSTATION ON X- What you guys are saying in the comments to those chuckle ***** makes me proud! Keep the heat on! Keep the community notes coming! Ni Mercy! 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!!! NO DISC 💿 NO BUY, MAKE SONY CRY
-
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.
-
Mono (@mono92cham) reported@JatlelGrapploct Sony owns Crunchyroll, & a lot of the issues plaguing Playstation also plague Crunchyroll. Recently, Crunchyroll just paywalled their store thus limiting access to blu-rays, & delisted several anime. Like Playstation, physical option are hit & digital options can be removed.
-
Ashutosh.hl (@AshutoshD2024) reported@Kid_Caution @Crunchyroll Same problem no subtitles. Wth is this experience man .it's ridiculous the latest ep ain't even downloading
-
Tomoyo Kisho 🌌Streaming Hiatus VTuber🌌 (@TomoyoKisho) reported@FenNozaki CrunchyRoll so *** it’s not even available here in Japan. Mostly cause of licensing issues. Not surprised they’re being greedy dumbasses cause they are limited in their reach. Their service still isn’t worth it. Enshitification continues.
-
peebert (@ErhardtKyle) reported@Crunchyroll @Dexerto Fix your store crunchyroll
-
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.
