  It’d be something if they invested in high quality ANIMATIONS, since that would be directly related to their actual audience. The reason Crunchyroll hasn’t been as successful here is because their animations have been rather mediocre and resulted in poor animations.

  Sony/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.

  Crunchyroll has been one of the worst things that happened to the growth of modern anime. The constant monopolization, the pricing, they don’t pay translators, they suck at anything overseas They’re a soulless corporate Sony puppet that can barely even stand on its own two feet

  @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.

  I blame Crunchyroll & modern algorithms for people thinking the state of anime quality is trash. It's not. The good to slop anime ratio has been consistent for 3 decades. You had to get good anime reccs via old forums or those blue bg white txt "best of" anime list vids.

  The most insane and unfair thing about the Bleach Copyright Strike issue is how 1 bad faith contractor can ruin an entire community during the peak of Bleach, and nothing will be done about it @VIZMedia isn't the one issuing these strikes, it's an abuser of the brittle copyright system that uses bots to scrape anything related to their IP and will spam DMCA takedowns, not just on YouTube but across various social media platforms They send emails threatening you with lawsuits and demand a written admission of guilt, and then they use these receipts to approach companies like VIZ to be a hall monitor when VIZ themselves have no idea what's actually happening on the frontline They abuse their authority and issue fraudulent DMCA takedowns envoking VIZ's name Just search "removeyourmedia" on twitter or reddit and you'll find people being harrassed by them for the past decade + If one was leaking and reuploading the anime episodes with 0 transformation to operate under fair use and had the intent of it being a market replacement for the source, that's when DMCA actually would matter However that's not what the vast majority of the Bleach content creators are doing that are targetted by these takedowns I understand how many perceive reaction content to be lazy and parasytic but all it does is actually create more motion for Bleach and acts as advertisement to support the brand even more Why do you think companies like Crunchyroll sponsor big influencers to stream and react to their anime ? It's because influencer marketing is the best form of advertisement for their return on investment The difference is that grassroots content creators advertise and market the anime without being paid by corporations and they still get ****** over because of how easy it is to abuse copyright law The true cancerous parasytes of this ecosystem are the abusers of the copyright system that makes a living off of fraudulent DMCA takedowns which doesn't help Bleach but only serves to fill their own little pockets Ignorant corporations will pay these bad faith contractors to kill the motion for their own product Everything about this process is beyond retarded This is the unfair reality of making anime content

  @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.

  Nitpicky af but I hate how quality is always (ever so barely) downgraded on any site that isn’t crunchyroll

  I won’t stick my head in the sand and say this isn’t a problem or there’s no concern, I’m always wary of the negative western influences on anime. But seeing as it’s an one day event and looks to be a gloried PR event for Crunchyroll, I don’t think anything as nefarious as the “WEF of anime” or the “end of anime”. It might just be “hey James Gunn, you wanna invest in some DCU anime?” Frankly, anime fandom and discourse has been shot since Post-Covid with the influx of hypersensitive larpers. I don’t normally comment on this stuff because I don’t really do the drama thing.

  @MaximillianLG I would imagine Crunchyroll for the average consumer. For the highest quality search into both Seed of Might and Neo-Raws.

  @KaizokuBalls Worst part is they can't even go back and do it as a general release since Crunchyroll bought and dissolved them. I'm glad I got their DVDs really cheap at least.

  @ChibiReviews Here's the trouble: I've never done anything illegal in my life, and otherwise had no intention of doing so. However, I would totally leave Crunchyroll if I knew where I could find the shows I want to watch in DUB, preferably without having to pay or pirate them.

  @notbl47ze @AnimeSpotlightt That adapted Korean webtoon doesn't belong in Japan, it was adapted by a greedy animation studio that almost went bankrupt adapting the same series @A1pictures Instead of finding and supporting original Japanese animated films to support the Japanese industry, you help promote inventions of Western adaptations from platforms like Crunchyroll
