Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Sleeping Dalmatian (@RSchiltJr) reported@PrimeVideo @Crunchyroll why don't I have access to the new season of Re:Zero through my membership? I am very confused. Please help.
-
WildGorrilla (@gorrillavision) reported@JuanDav63254336 @Mashiro_yuh @luzarak10259 Crunchyroll is awful we have constant complaints here about it. They also barely produce money for the creators.
-
Alexander (@Hassaibi82599) reported@p9cker_girl Imagine paying for Crunchyroll, they were a piracy site first, the worst of the worst. Anime fansubbing was done by groups of people working tirelessly on bringing out episodes for everyone, and they would just remove the credits and add their own.
-
Drag🇩🇪🇮🇱🇺🇦 (@Drag007_) reported@GyaruGlow A website without data issues please. Crunchyroll has most anime on the market but it sucks ;-; Steals and sells data, data breaches, censorship etc ;-;
-
Ice❄️ (@IceGamer495) reported@Crunchyroll Clock is ticking fix the translations
-
Sebas (@UzbekiWindex) reportedPirate streaming sites are so weird because with anime sites, they tend to work even better than paid services like Crunchyroll, whereas western movie sites work like everything is being streamed from some laptop in estonia
-
Mary Alana (@maryag) reported@CCTakato @Crunchyroll I more talking about putting it in theaters. They could easily put it on streaming, but a theatrical... the name would be an issue for Sony itself
-
Kana🇨🇦 (@around40ka) reported@Crunchyroll I had to contacy Crunchyroll to get the code and link. and the link doesn’t work
-
Evilblanketfish (@evilblanketfish) reported@zkurishi also please discipline @Crunchyroll for their terrible translations which often change meaning
-
Deforl (@deforl) reported@LN_Master_Hub @AyakaMods And you are being disingenuous. People keep pointing out the constant alteration of the translation from Crunchyroll. This is just one more point on the graph for them and their constant changes. They alter and insert their own opinions completely changing the work of the artist.
-
Rock Steadfastson (@bugler) reported@mika_nj @sylvvseur Crunchyroll sort of had this.. they had an app for mangas for specific titles that were official. The app was kind of terrible though.
-
SLE (@SLE_aman) reported@LameAdnBlame @azusa_maxima You can tone down the condescending laughing if you don't want to come off as aggressively hostile. Companies work with YouTube now, auto copyright strikes surged, any 20 part uploads fly under the radar with under 50k views while crunchyroll and bandai upload their own series.
-
Yuki 🤎 (@BodySwap) reported@AyakaMods I don't know how but everything Sony owns has been turned into **** lately. Crunchyroll is literally unusable right now, they removed comments, plenty of anime with missing seasons, and AI subtitles or misstranslations all over the site. I've cancelled my sub already.
-
hassan shokr (@hassanshokr6) reported@Crunchyroll Why does Vash the Stampede make a terrible secret agent? Because he's a $6,000,000 (roughly $2 trillion in today's money) walking disaster zone.
-
DrunkenFerret (@Drunk3nFerret) reported@FWKnappIV @ChibiReviews Basically Japan can do what they want but their copy right laws have killed publicity and passion for certain franchises over the years. So many anime and manga get left in the bin because of service issues with lack of middle men and relying on things like Crunchyroll.
-
Chinonyerem-Senpai (@Chi_Chinonyerem) reported@anaero_chukwudi @jewels_uduehi Fair enough, let go pay for Crunchyroll subscription then. I just wanna support their work man
-
SHINIKAZE (@kazeshini_69_) reported@Killjoy3879 @TheNCSmaster That's the problem right there, when Crunchyroll is usually one of the only options 😭
-
blizzardjesus the Red Comet (@blizzardjesus) reported@walpurgisnachti @strikersashi @azukiglg Back then very little anime was available to purchase. We were able to import goods and toys to show support. In modern day Amazon & Crunchyroll have made it easier to watch "legal" Anime. However and issue is the services have bad translations which leads to more piracy.
-
ndjnduidw (@hyuhini987) reported> self censor your work to appeal to wider audience > said audience harasses you anyways that's what happens when you work with the devil (crunchyroll)
-
Futurist Dog (@FuturistDog) reported@yamanakanobody I pay for Crunchyroll in the United States, but they have a partial monopoly on localization of anime. Because of that they can increase the prices and lower the quality without any recourse. If there were competition to them, quality would increase and piracy would decrease.
-
strajk- (@strajk_) reported@raisetom @Marte_Aleks Yes, because it will never be 0. It's a service issue which both of us already agreed on. The best way to combat piracy is to provide a better service, platforms like Netflix and Crunchyroll were the main force in combating pirating because they provided what the consumer wants.
-
viperion (@viperio76050352) reported@Stoopbets @Idontexistalr @Dexerto Look who's yapping. Disposable income doesn't mean anything if there's no quality service. And look, that's where America sucks. Do I need to point out just how bad Crunchyroll is to name but one example? At that point even having no service is better than that service.
-
FantasiaProject (@ProjectFantasia) reportedCrunchyroll is a freaking mess! It causes nothing but problems that localizing here in the US can’t do nowadays.
-
HyMni3 (@hy_mni3) reported@NNook0480757 And the worst part? He dickrides Crunchyroll and libtard translators
-
Master0fNone🇺🇸 (@MasterOfNone428) reportedThis is why I would love for the companies in Japan to ditch Crunchyroll and have them do in house. They would make sure translations are done faithfully. I understand costs are an issue but what are they paying Crunchyroll to distribute their content in America?
-
radionerd (@radionerdxbox) reported@AyakaMods It actually isn’t that bad. It’s two schools of thought. The translator for Muse wanted to keep things literal and maintain honorifics. The translator of Crunchyroll wanted to remove honorifics. The decision to remove honorifics is made at the beginning of the series. While it will work for a majority of the series, when a scene like this comes along, it can throw off the translations.
-
TheFlammifer (@theflammifer) reported@magozone23 We want the work to be faithful to the original. Unfortunately the translators at companies like Crunchyroll are all activists pushing an agenda. It needs to stop and we need the Japanese companies to crack down on malicious mistranslations.
-
Kei (@msj54540) reported@AbyMizuno @AmiPik1118 Crunchyroll does translate on-screen text most of the time, only recent shows have issues due to executive meddling
-
Bunburyōdō (文武両道) (Bun) (@bunburyoudoujp) reported@Smartmouse96 Because Crunchyroll is awful. Why defend them?
-
Yura 「Gozyu Styra」***** (@Ecchi_Zombie) reported@SirZombieCrocs 😔doubt it. TADC/Glitch actively talk to the theatres and made the call to action by telling their fans to try emailing them.... Crunchyroll probably just dumped it to theatres and didnt care about how long they would keep it there.
