not_22 (@NotCloch) reported@KilZeroZ It takes me 15 minutes just to open Crunchyroll with a mouse….And that’s if I’m lucky. Such a good work🔥

packergirl (@p9cker_girl) reportedWTF? Did Crunchyroll using MACHINE TRANSLATION ON HANA-KIMI?!!!😱 According to Google Gemini: This is almost certainly a machine translation (MT) error or the result of someone using a basic dictionary lookup without knowing the phrase >Word-by-word splitting: A machine translator often breaks down compound terms into individual components if it fails to recognize the full phrase. It saw チビッコ (chibikko = toddler), missed のど (nodo = voice/throat), and translated じまん (jiman = bragging) >Zero contextual awareness: Any human translator—or even a basic Japanese student—would recognize のど自慢 (nodo-jiman) as the standard Japanese term for an amateur singing contest >Software like early Google Translate or automated subtitle generators frequently fail on idioms and established compound words like this, producing absurdly literal results like "Toddler Bragging."

Mal🎈 (@STYLOUTSYDE) reported@_leavein Outside of the first movie they work better as seasons anyways lmfao. I guess they could have both on Crunchyroll tho

The Interloping Ape (@GiddyOnGaming) reported@RealTankTheta The problem is I DON'T use Crunchyroll. I was looking to buy a physical copy of an anime that was a Rightstuffanime exclusive but Chruchy Roll BOUGHT Rightstuffanime in like 2022. The only way to buy it from Crunchy Roll is if I pay for their membership. Buncha BS.

Windy_Pointz (@windydanchou) reportedWe are finally at the death throes of "hollywood" trying to basically take over anime. Thanks to everyone using Crunchyroll, you are going to see more and more mainstream garbage trying to ride the coattails of what made anime work.
-
Pridom. (@pridom_) reported@anramAlelleT in this context it means "he is using me only for crunchyroll login"
-
yakusou (@yakusou8) reported@zoqxkin I think you just have to let normies be normies. I gave friends access to my plex server filled with anime at bluray quality, dual audio, en/jp subs and all of them prefer to pay for prime, netflix, crunchyroll, etc...
-
FlassMaximus (@FlassMaximusVT) reportedCrunchyroll bugs me to no end sometimes. how are you gunna have S3 and S4 + OVA's of food-wars but not the rest of the seasons!? i wanna rewatch the lot, not start halfway through! I'll tolerate the ****** business practices, the broken UI, the pushy splash cards, but not this.

Nkosinathi Sibiya (@Nkosinathi28182) reported@Visionsaww @zardarky Broh breaking crunchyroll servers aren't even that hard A little bit of buzz breaks that app... Put the same shows to Disney the app won't crash

Hasan AK (@HasanAliKhawari) reported@AnimexTwts Solo Leveling. But for context I was born with dysgraphia and dyspraxia disabilities that made it really difficult to write. Because of that I always had like the worst grades in elementary school because all elementary is, is pretty much drawing, and writing and as a person in a paper based school that’s kind of impossible for me to do so I had horrible grades Then in high school I got something called an iep that waived class requirements like math and physics And then Covid happened where everything went online and i graduated high school, I then signed up for college and I got and iPad with an Apple Pencil to turned out that the friction between the pencil and paper is what stopped me from writing because my fingers are weak I guess lol But on an iPad the Apple Pencil just glides across the smooth surface frictionlessly, this meant that I could write, but because my iep made by my high school never expected me to go to college the classes I skipped in high school I was missing the foundations for college level classes, and my Pell grant is limited so I was worried if I used it on high school level classes I’d run out of money for actual college classes to finish my college degree Then a new system came out called ChatGPT, I started using it during the ChatGPT 3.5 turbo generation and have been using it since now days I use ChatGPT 5.6 sol thinking and I always have the plus subscription and consider it a $20 a month school supply cost and pay for it using the Pell grant All of this is background context now for solo leveling spoilers: I used ChatGPT to tutor myself everyday, when a teacher teaches they need to teach ina generalized way to make sure everyone understands, like if the calculus one teacher goes up to the board and uses ODM gear as an analogy for sin and cos and how they function and only one student in the class watched attack on Titan everyone else wouldn’t understand what he’s saying, so our current educations systems critical flaw is that it generalizes learning. ChatGPT has memory now, so when I fed it my Crunchyroll watchlist it’s able to teach me stuff in a personalized way, like when it taught me the concept of an asymptote it used gojos limitless technique as an analogy and I instantly understood the concepts Normal teachers teach everything in a generalized way from scratch ChatGPT uses memory to teach you new concepts from stuff you already understand in your life so that you’re not learning stuff from scratch. So you learn at an accelerated/faster rate. Then kids started getting caught using ai to cheat and ai got a bad reputation at colleges, i use ai to learn skills that i then use to apply on tests, quizzes, and assignments, the ai doesnt do the work for me all college work is done manually by me but the studying and tutoring is done with the ai as my teacher (the ai being ChatGPT 5.6 SOL thinking with memory and reference other chats enabled) I then even raised my gpa high enough to get honors. Anyway point is: Jinwoos arc is that he lacks a ability everyone else has naturally and then gains access to a computer system that give him power, like me and ChatGPT and my iPad and Apple Pencil, he can’t tell anyone about the system and I can’t tell anyone at college about ChatGPT because they’ll instantly think I’m cheating even though I’m not but the ChatGPT just has a bad reputation at colleges because of the number of people that misuse it. Over time Jinwoo stops feeling satisfied by winning fights because they are too easy, I started to feel this way too, when your used to failing there’s a joy you feel when you get an A+ on an exam, when you spend all day studying and get an A+ you don’t get that same feeling, you just add it to the stack of A+ previous exams you’ve taken, it gives you a feeling similar to what saitama felt in one punch man Jinwoo slowly starts to lose his humanity, everyone around you celebrates when you get a A+ but for you it’s just normal now.

Leaf It (@Leaf_lt) reported@AnimeMatt7 @Crunchyroll It was fun, but it changed so much from the source that a Season 2 is very unlikely. If they did, they'd have to retcon or flash back to a ton of stuff to fix what they changed and skipped.
-
グミ178 (@gumi178_) reported@Vanilla_Inazuma @Crunchyroll I said this a bit ago when Marvel Tōkon got cracked, but I've been noticing this trend where paid, legit services have worse quality than pirate services And after a comprehensive research my conclusion is that we live in hell
-
Priyanshu Bhati (@buildwithpb) reported@Crunchyroll @SonyPictures the glitch aesthetic is perfect for him, but does that mean he’s just a loading screen with a personality?
-
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.

サミュエル・オケーン🌸 (@AquilaSamurai95) reported@max5452o @Crunchyroll No. The site states it won't work on Genshin accounts not on the America server :/

Edw3012 🇩🇴 (@Iloveducks36494) reported@jerkman11 @ChittyBittyBang @Anhiksi How is this cope? You can ask any bleach fan how the marketing was and they'll say it was awful Bleach TYBW would 100% be more popular if it was on Crunchyroll or Netflix, hell even Prime Video.

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.

Pumpkin King 🎃💀 (@Keeloween) reportedI have the fact that you can’t change the video quality on the crunchyroll tv app
-
kinoposting (@Kino_Posting) reportedreally funny to see crunchyroll trying to do the Supreme brand upping the price cause it's crunchyroll with anime merch is really funny. It's anime merch you will find some other brand or artist who put out better designs at better pricing. at worst you deal with bad shipping.

Kyantastic (@kyantastic29) reported@ChibiReviews I think expecting Crunchyroll doing more than 1 good thing was more of a pipe dream Broken clock and all that
-
Spar the Morose (@SparcraftIII) reported@Crunchyroll This anime is ******* terrible.
-
Sora Nai (@Blank_Gaming_) reported@VisionThaGoat @HIDIVEofficial I'm not particularly picky about who gets it. If it goes to Crunchyroll? Great, I've got no issue with that. HiDive just feels like the likely option because of Sentai Filmworks' relationship with the anime adaptation.
-
Jonathan C. (@Jonatha15029413) reported@NinEverything Crunchyroll doesn’t work on Switch 2 anyways unless they somehow make a Switch 2 version of the app
-
VDeviance (@vdeviance) reportedThe bigger issue is that there's layers of internal management and production that completely fell apart and led to this situation. Crunchyroll under Sony is pulling in different directions and one side often isn't talking to the other, which is why this happens.

taino (@tainoix) reportedyo @Crunchyroll fix your **** bro i jus spent 5 minutes tryna put in my password then when i went to reset it yall wanna say some “new password must differ from current password” **** yall

🏝️ 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.

CJ (@CJFIVEGaming) reported.@Crunchyroll please fix the English audio on the start of SAO Season 3 Episode 7 😭
