  @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.

  @Crunchyroll @madeby_bilibili Crowned in a Hundred Days is a fun watch, but no one bothered to check the audio quality before pushing it out. The intro/outro volume is practically twice as loud as the actual content.

  Genuine question, currently I live in Japan, how am I supposed to watch anime? Crunchyroll doesn't work unless I have a VPN, but I ain't going to pay for all dat. I do have Netflix, but it doesn't have those specific anime that I want to watch.

  Let’s not forget that time crunchyroll tried to soft launch ai dubs with this show and it sounded so ******* awful they removed it completely.

  Reminder Crunchyroll owned by Sony has been allegedly rumored to be phasing out Physical Manga on their store soon too. At least for "unpopular" work for a bit now. This rumor was circulating before the announcement of Physical Game discs would cease production for PlayStation.

  Sony will run things into the ground trying to make things work the way they want it to. Then blame the employees or customers when it does not work. Look at the Crunchyroll mess as a whole.

  @MarshPlaza @gen__wealth @AnimexTwts Issue is that media is hard to find or completely inaccessible. Like the winner of Crunchyroll 2026 romance anime isn’t even on Crunchyroll. You’d need both a Netflix and Crunchyroll sub and even those are missing a quarter of the content. There are a bunch of reason to pirate but that’s a massive one for millions of people worldwide. On top of region locks for media that you’d need a vpn subscription for to even watch. That’s now $50 a month for something you’ll never own. Even then, a Cr subscription is a lot of money for third world countries. This take pure privilege and inconsideration for anyone living in any other circumstance than your own.

  @MegaSaidIt @AnimexTwts The problem isn’t the subscription it’s the the fact that i can look up 20 different animes on my watch list and somehow almost every one of them aren’t even on Crunchyroll lol dog **** website honestly

  @SiKthYEXP Pretty greedy **** move to two guys who were big time fans and supported the crunchyroll merger, and always Playststion and Sony devices, and was going to buy a PS5 until that happened. And if they will do that to fans without a sorry or fix, they will screw over mom and us.

  Hey @Crunchyroll please fix the audio for the dub of SAO alicization. A lot of the audio are out of sync

  @Crunchyroll why have you not bothered fixing the playback skipping issue on your app? It’s been happening for months since I’ve subscribed.

  @MangaAlerts Crunchyroll and Aniplex are some of the worst with their prices. And the. The CR change coming in August? Are they trying to not sell their stuff?

  @ShopCrunchyroll This is terrible and I will never purchase anything from you again. What a way to keep shrinking your market. Crunchyroll is a stain on the anime/manga community.

  @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

  @SiKthYEXP Not to be that guy but how did you NOT know this. Sony buying Crunchyroll and merging it with funimation was THE news when it happened. And people have complained about the problems ever since.

  @AnimexTwts Piracy is a service issue. If the Crunchyroll platform wasn’t so ****, people would seek them out first. Has no one in their camp thought to consider what hi anime was doing right?

  @mrjeffu "I agree that authorities shouldn't focus on poor people consuming content they can't afford or people living in countries with no possible way to legally consume anime/manga. However, many adults outside Japan who can absolutely afford to legally consume anime and manga pirate it while falsely claiming there is no "convenient" way to pay for it. Telling your viewers it's not terrible to pirate anime because you think Crunchyroll is bad will not change the way the Japanese anime industry approaches their overseas audience. They aren't going to bend to the whims of pro-piracy people. Like it or not, Japanese people, Japanese companies, and the Japanese government are not sympathetic to the continuation of the "piracy actually helps Japan" narrative, especially after the development of paid streaming services that make newly released anime readily accessible to most of the developed world." This is the part of your statement that I strongly agree with. The unfortunate reality is that there are hundreds of thousands of people who support piracy despite living in countries where legal streaming services are both affordable and readily available. The idea that this particular group believes it's acceptable to consume someone else's work without permission or without paying for it reflects an incredible sense of entitlement. From my perspective, you can't reasonably complain that your favorite anime never gets another season if you weren't willing to support the previous one through legitimate means in some capacity. While purchasing merchandise, Blu-rays, or manga can also support a series, if someone has easy access to legal streaming and still chooses to pirate everything, I think it's difficult to argue they're meaningfully contributing to that series' success. To be clear, I don't currently have any issue with Chibi Reviews, and I appreciate his willingness to push back against what he sees as woke ideology in anime and gaming. That said, I couldn't disagree with him more on this particular issue.

  How is it Sony is able to making ******* awful decisions with both PlayStation and Crunchyroll?

  Putting store access and other things that were previously available on the lowest tier and placing them on a higher tier as they keep raising prices is a great way to retain customers. They should keep doing it, along with their feminist filtered locatizations, pixelating video quality, streaming service that stutters, and a user experience that requires more clicks than necessary. Crunchyroll has a "customer" for life, because I love all the products the cover in ***** matter they present to me as I pretend to eat it. NO No no... I'll never betray them! I'm a pure, law-abiding customer who would never do something bad... I'll keep dutifully paying every price increase, accepting every “improved” localization, and buffering through every unstable stream like a true loyalist... Oh this? Just harmless cosplay, I swear! Just remember, make sure to check your subscription settings so you don't get any funny surprises! Oh, and you should never click that cancel button... oh heavens no.

  @Crunchyroll so now you are not translating people talking in your anime? "I Became a Legend after My 10 Year-Long Last Stand" has parts that you forgot or your people was to lazy to translate in episode 2 between the Vampire and the main character. or are you doing threw AI and no one checked it's work???

  This is one of the issues with Japan, especially for the Tenchi franchise. They've always ignored everything outside of Japan. Kajishima-sensei is guilty of this too. And places like Crunchyroll don't help either since they dropped OVA 1/OVA 2 from streaming and won't release it on BD.

  @Crunchyroll My iPhone version is 16.5, and I can't access the app because of an update that doesn't support it. It requires iOS 17 and above, and I can't update to that version. I hope you can fix this problem and support the latest version. Please.

  @AnimexTwts probably the worst thing to happen was crunchyroll becoming legit, lowered their quality by a lot.

  @mrjeffu I don't like that these guys have made $$ from others' work but Crunchyroll has made it very difficult for me to support them. I was a CR subscriber for years, & pulled the plug very recently. I wish they didn't have an almost complete monopoly on anime streaming in the west
