𝕌𝕟𝕕𝕖𝕣𝕕𝕠𝕘𝔹𝕋: 𝔹𝕃𝕄 ✊🏿 (@B_Rabbit843) reportedI wish people would stop saying this. Look, I get hating Crunchyroll and they definitely deserve smoke for a lot of things, but Sony is the real issue here.
-
Mike! (@beggbiee) reported@Crunchyroll The "new" and "simulcast" views have been broken across the website, mobile app and smart TV app for weeks now, which is making it very hard to find shows from the new season. Is this in the process of being fixed?
-
W33aboojones 🎮🌸 (@W33ab00Jones) reportedYou can't hate Sony and Crunchyroll enough. They saw how much money they could make from anime fans and gamers and instead of working with us they just go straight to ******* up the hobbies and draining your wallet dry harder than a gacha game with their limited time waifu pulls. Never forget that they made these issues with their bad business decisions and are now using the retarded decisions to justify bullshit like this.

Gopoke (@GopokeSan) reported@ShopCrunchyroll Paying for the right to shop has got to be the worst thing I have seen happen to the Anime scene in awhile. Good job Crunchyroll.
-
ʚ₍ᐢ. .ᐢ₎ɞ 🎀 Sylvia the Bun (@NotSylviarill) reported@terremoto_44 @ValhallaOutcast It was not a license issue there, Crunchyroll retains everything. But you cannot access what you had purchased in Funimotion. Which yes, is a loss of a user bought good.
-
Hoagie (@H0ag1e) reported@MangaAlerts Seeing this makes me glad I bought the bluray DVDs along time ago. But still that sucks, Crunchyroll proving they're an awful platform. 😑
-
butai (@butaidesu) reportedI feel like this is a Crunchyroll issue since the blu ray is R16. Its unlikely they would change the rating at this point.
-
Jeffpiatt (@jeffpiatt) reported@Jman88933 @B_Rabbit843 It was annoying they decided to move the cdn under the worse Crunchyroll ui instead of just slapping the brand on the Funimation now site and import to that since the Animelab staff was working on the site to fix its issues.

the gadget guy on wheels 🏴♿️ (@GG_on_wheels) reported“Hey @Crunchyroll , really enjoying the shows but the app on my Fire TV Cube keeps logging me out all the time. Especially after hitting the home button or switching apps. I’ve cleared the cache/data and reinstalled but no dice. Any known fix for this? Thanks

the gadget guy on wheels 🏴♿️ (@GG_on_wheels) reported“Hey @Crunchyroll , really enjoying the shows but the app on my Fire TV Cube keeps logging me out all the time. It happens randomly, even in the middle of watching or right when I open it. Especially after hitting the home button or switching apps. I’ve cleared the cache/data and reinstalled but no dice. Any known fix for this? Thanks
-
schizography (@schizography_) reported@OG_OnePiece @Dexerto Funny you say this because most people experience more quality dips on Crunchyroll than on these piracy sites. And you could just download the media to your computer, and then you'd never get the problem you could see theoretically on both.
-
GMLM (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (@ladymulti) reported@AzurenTheGamer Sony owns Crunchyroll = getting **** on for bad subtitles and raising prices for poor quality... Sony Gaming drives away collectors; drove away people who have been subscribed to PS+ since the dawn of its creation to cancel (mine ends 7/26... feels...strange). they're rough.
-
Adelheid (@adelheidx333) reported@fordemdolphins Not really cause all these sites have worse subs than the ones on pirating sites lol, and sometimes they butcher quality (looking at you crunchyroll or whatever ur called )
-
Ryoko Panic (@RyokoPanic) reported@Ringo3911 @Toasterctrdge Well most good figures are now over 100 bucks and its 100 bucks to fill up a gas tank to get to work to just be house poor. Figures are the next industry to bellyflop with streaming services and gaming. Noone can afford this ****. I tried to take a loan out to fix a roof and i was, for the first time, asked if i had subscriptions and how many I had and what services so they could calculate them like credit card bills. HAVING STREAMING SERVICES negatively impacts your credit score now. So if you want to watch the biggest anime this season Chainsmoker cat Netflix GITS Amazon Avatar movie paramount+ Botan crunchyroll
-
Lee Smith (@LeeinND) reported@mrjeffu That there isn't a single good value proposition for watching anime in America is the issue. Crunchyroll is the only site that has most anime, but the service and people who work there are garbage is ridiculous. Should not be this hard to convince netflix/d+/prime to carry it.
-
Silent Avacate (@SilentAvacate) reported@PrimeVideo I keep seeing "(# x) in (category)" but there is nowhere to browse categories to see the list of top movies of each category. There needs to be more search options instead of going through random recommendations until you stumble upon something interesting. You should be able to search by date, time period, genres, category, streaming service, recently added, tending, most liked, and award winners and nominees. And any of them at once, not just one at a time. I paid for no ads but there are still ads that I need to skip, which is false advertising. And I noticed whenever I watch Crunchyroll videos via Prime video, the video quality is worse than watching directly from Crunchyroll as shown in the example below👇

Canti99 (@DotHacker12) reported@buddertroll1 @Chaoskiller2000 @Anime Semantics doesn't help you. Funimation wasn't like this. Its either Sony or Crunchyroll pulling the strings
-
Hariom Kale (@thehariomkale) reportedSony is entering the stablecoin race. Sony Bank has received conditional U.S. regulatory approval to launch Connectia Trust, a national trust bank that aims to issue a U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin by 2027. The token could power payments for PlayStation games, Crunchyroll, and other Sony digital services, with the goal of reducing transaction fees. However, many gamers are already raising concerns about digital lock-in and ownership of purchased content. Would you use a PlayStation stablecoin?
-
🌙Sailor Suibian🪷 (@SailorSuibian) reported@ShopCrunchyroll @Crunchyroll As usual, you charge more for the shittiest service instead of fixing anything. Your customer service has been awful for years. I stopped buying from your store after several different shipments took months to ship after the release date. Oh and you lost one in your warehouse.
-
Chidoki Collections (@ChidokiTV) reportedI’m not particularly a fan of the Crunchyroll store itself gives me problems. Also cuz I’m in Canada so it’s another headache when I try to place a specific order.
-
Jerry (@jerrysgotpops) reportedThis **** is so absurd Crunchyroll what is wrong with yall? Like please chill out and work on providing the best service cause Amazon & Netflix and other big streamers gonna keep stealing the bag THAT YOU ALREADY HAD LOCKED DOWN cause you keep fumbling it
-
yaya (@yanadnadya) reportedI gen wanna jump onto Witch in Mongol so BAD but crunchyroll is NOT accesible here.. 😭 help a WNI out..
-
AL (@Avalinh) reported@shutterpoint3 @SD_Comic_Con Was hoping for a crunchyroll concert this year too. Seems the possible headliner DOES had travel issues and had to cancel
-
fis ⛷️ (@fisphophyllite) reportedDude in high school was like hey want me to share my Crunchyroll account information I was like no dude i just pirate **** and the concept of not paying for anime baffled him. Awful mentality
-
Mikerow🦎🐻 💨🟠 🐧 (@Mikerow01) reported@KaiAnitwt The problem with @Crunchyroll is that they don’t have every anime. You would think an anime platform would have them all most piracy sites would have them all
-
CipherDood (@CipherDood) reported@Real_Kilometers That's just the worst thing ever; as if killing Rightstuf wasn't enough, they are basically killing their store now. Guess someone at Crunchyroll decided that the physical market isn't worth the time and money anymore…
-
🥦💥Bakudeku and Shiguang📸⏳ (@dkbk_shiguang) reported@yingying2xx But like… How does it work? It’s my first time watching Link Click while releasing. Doesn’t come out on Crunchyroll as well on August 14? Or the Bilibili’s subscription makes you watch it before? Bcs I, too, was thinking about buying it and I was afraid about the eng/otherssubs
-
gyroz (@gyroz333) reported@SWortenUwU @KaiAnitwt For every single anime that I and BILLIONS of others have already seen crunchyroll has ALWAYS been **** so **** to the point i didnt even know that lame *** app was even a pirated site aswell (at some point)… the WORST place to watch GOOD anime…. 🤮🥀

Tommy Hunter (@Tommy_H3_) reported@bradsmithVR The merging of Funimation & Crunchyroll was terrible. I waited multiple years for dubbed anime to come over. It never did with a lot just completely gone. Cancelled my Funimation/Crunchyroll folded account
