Corey Lee 🦅 (@4xcut9999) reported@Crunchyroll please fix the ******* lag on the One piece audio. Thanks.
-
kvothe (@83434df) reported@Japaota2025 @Mashiro_yuh Some of the anime sites did it, Crunchyroll was a piracy site before, Funimation too but Crunchyroll bought it just to eliminate competition and in manga there's mangadex who was a piracy site and is the process to become legal but the problem with all of them is that when they+
-
Fafthriech (@fafthriech80117) reported@Thomaskliptoman @C11_Hallo_World @yamanakanobody Their competition is crunchyroll who never does maintenance on their servers and never upgrades them so it shouldn't be hard other than dealing with insane japanese laws.
-
ayydinn (@ayydinnobs) reported@yamanakanobody streaming service with better catalogue and subs than Crunchyroll would work or a steam like to buy/rent movies tho I doubt renting each anime episode would work
-
Sabin Ghimire (@Saw_Bean223) reported@Crunchyroll If I don't get the full anime from the official app itself then why won't I look for an alternative?It's not like I wanted to but it's what you made me do. So maybe just maybe fix your own website first and also research why do people not use your website first to satisfy payers.

Dom | 🖤❤️ (@5andthen6) reported@NamiNagisaKawa Crunchyroll only ever has the most popular stuff it's so awful Also off topic but that room is what I strive to have one day
-
CyanBH 【Vtuber】 (@Cyan_with_a_bh) reported@NCyotee Crunchyroll was a pirate site. A third party. With established capability to host anime. Struck a deal and became legal with the help of publishing gients. You are either downplaying how it became legal or missing the point that making something up in your mind.
-
TheSlavicGerman💂🏼♂️ (@WanshaerTv) reported@BlaqqCherii @AnimexTwts If you can’t afford less then 20$ a month, I feel you have bigger problems then buying crunchyroll
-
Huey (@huey_ytofc) reported@mikey_bellamy @Crunchyroll It's an adaptation of a work published by Kadokawa, but the anime is not produced by them
-
CowboyFox (@PassionOwl263) reported@Audbih @AnimexTwts No. Crunchyroll is a monopoly and they know it so they make it impossible to watch anime legally without paying an arm and a leg or watching a ridiculous amount of ads. Until these problems are solved im not paying for **** and im not watching ads either
-
🐝Suzume Bachi🐝 (@TheMenyaHime) reported@TylaferPage @AnimexTwts Crunchyroll has continually put out incorrect subtitles, poor localization, and just work that is completely wrong lately. Telling people to pay for a flawed product is crazy
-
MEME (@TICCOIN1b) reportedthe other day, our favorite anime websites is getting taken down. What if we get rid of the problem and take down Crunchyroll instead? think about it.
-
The Goat (@Ec_supreme) reported@Horrormovie317 @status_is_down Delete Crunchyroll then redownload it I had the same issue as you on my iPhone so I deleted it and reinstalled it and now it works perfectly fine I told someone else to delete it and reinstall it and it worked for them
-
LTDBrandon (@ltd_brandon) reported@oblivibum @MosIIey Also, if you have the mkv files you can upscale then to 4k in real time. Huge quality difference when viewing on a 4k TV. But you need a good enough GPU. I use an RX 6600 and it's at 50% usage when upscaling. I still pay for crunchyroll for the convenience though.
-
🌸Sam🌸 (@Kabukimononoke) reportedanytime im talking to my coworkers about anime and they find out the show im watching isnt on crunchyroll or netflix the convo just ends regardless of if they were interested in the work or not, deeply incurious and opiated generation raised on instant streaming gratification
-
Dubious1ty (@Dubious1ty) reported@yamanakanobody Piracy is on the upswing in the US again because everything is fragmented across multiple streaming services which keep raising their prices. Along with the general terrible state of our economy. Otherwise people used to prefer paying for subscriptions like Crunchyroll.
-
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)
-
P (@PheoGotMo) reported@TylaferPage @AnimexTwts Crunchyroll is a terrible company that doesn't even allow a comment section or have the decency to have the correct subtitles ontop of the fact they don't have nearly as much anime as a random site
-
Wintersong Games (@WintersongGames) reported@Khirassj @CharmandAznable Crunchyroll: Doesn't have a working search feature They forget to add anime to lists so they're not searchable, period Steals fansubs Misspent funds then tried to hide it with a truly terrible show Doesn't pay the creators Why ******** would I pay for Crunchyroll?
-
TheSlavicGerman💂🏼♂️ (@WanshaerTv) reported@tbhimjustyk @DerpressionNaH @theotakuinsider Yeah no, I didn’t state that at all Lol. But okaye whatever makes you feel better. And what do you mean *******? Crunchyroll has the most catalog out of any app there is. Look it up. The only things that outdo crunchyroll is illegal sites that pirate them. So 1: No, never stated that you can watch crunchyroll on everything. It’s quite the opposite and that’s with EVERY streaming app. Netflix, Hulu, hbo, prime. Tubi, it’s all a monopoly my friend. There’s also a thing called licenses. There’s a reason why shows get taken off or added. Licenses expire this isn’t anything new. Stupid and ignorant kids just come to Twitter to ***** when this is just how it works. Not saying it’s perfect. But blaming crunchyroll, your best legal option to watch anime is just futile and stupid, and contradictory to any streaming app. Keep pirating then it’s not my problem. If you can’t afford 14$ a month I’m afraid you have bigger problems.

STRACKY (@strackmal) reported@Crunchyroll Fix the app
-
Cyphre (@DireCyphre) reported@yamanakanobody We already do. The problem now is those companies taking charge (Crunchyroll for example) are also bad at their job. If they somehow got a hold on more properties, it would be worse than it is now.
-
Akame (@akamebigtits) reportedissue is streamers/youtubers/twitter it self. anime has grown too big and now normies are spreading the word. Soon you have to suck it up and pay for crunchyroll. as for me, I buy anime blu rays
-
Turtle Island (@TurtleI86650749) reported@Audbih @AnimexTwts Crunchyroll anime is broken for some episodes you literally have no choice but to go off platform for a service that should be complete. **** subscriptions and the monopolies they hold on the people
-
BadRedMan (@Milquetoast4u) reported@yamanakanobody I would certainly pay. I currently pay for Crunchyroll, but it's awful. I want something better.
-
DyrianAr (@CraftPhinox) reported@KyokoSo2J @Crunchyroll Part 2 even though it says you've purchased it, if you can't access 100% of the game, it basically means you're only "renting" it. The problem is, even if you buy a physical game copy, if the game is online-only and the servers shut down, you won't be able to play it anymore.
-
Coral Yumi (@Sammyz91099599) reported@grimsikk @AnimexTwts Crunchyroll has had a long list of issues with the way they treat their customers and workers with distinct that it is not even worth supporting even if it's the morally best way most of the time.
-
FerntheStoryteller (@Feroftheroad) reported@yamanakanobody It fully depends on the quality of the translation and localization. In the 90s and early 2000s we had 4kids which butchered iconic series like Pokémon. Even today we have crunchyroll which has a new problem every other week
-
f (@FS3___) reported@yamanakanobody I do pay for Crunchyroll, my country supports artist copyrights! The only problem is that the manga prices are way too high ( is it normal to pay 3600¥ for one chapter?)
-
glory (@Glory_fL) reported@Crunchyroll fix yo damn site first
