Crunchyroll Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Munk (@Munkieezy) reported@ShaunTheCHB The most insidious part is that the blurays on sale now in the US were published by Funimation which is now Crunchyroll and they have in the past allowed blurays to go out of print. They still come with Digital Codes that no longer work.

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.
-
Panda (@wil3681) reported@MattTMage Crunchyroll doesn't care about preserving the original art, and they definitely don't care about the fans. Their history of heavy-handed censorship and terrible pay for translators predates Sony by years.
-
Zealous Seraphim ☦️ (@ZealousSeraphim) reportedI really want to support their releases of this on YouTube. Because it’s somewhere that’s not Crunchyroll. Plus this show seems to work well with a slower viewing.

Skye びじゅつ (@MUHAMMA19520427) reported@love_art_2D i can download it but i cant play. when i want to sign in its direct go to crunchyroll pass
-
Kougeru 🐉⛩️ (@Kougeru) reported@FoxSTARSVT The issue is that Crunchyroll owns the rights to most anime. Yes, we can order on other sites like Amazon but check the publisher - most stuff from the last 2-3 years is from Crunchyroll (or Aniplex which is also Sony). They'll likely stop selling outside CR store soon...
-
PiggybackPeak || red panda Vtuber (@PiggybackPeak) reported@PaulTassi @Forbes This honestly is imo the worst thing crunchyroll has done. The string of events from buying right stuf to pay walling the store is crazy.
-
FireHero (@Hero_Of_Fire_42) reported@lycanoes @icedoll456 RE:Monster has 4.7 stars on Crunchyroll for some reason. I get how an epistolary (work told in past tense in letters/journal entries) works as a book but it needed a LOT of editing to actually work as an overlord esque anime, the day-by-day storytelling got really old really fast
-
DovahKiller Unchained (@DovahkillerU) reported@ChibiReviews Crunchyroll: The worst place to watch anime
-
S.M.C 👑 (@ssvegeta3000) reported@Dexerto I paid for super fan for 2 months waiting to receive the bag that came with it and nothing, crunchyroll is actually terrible
-
sanstastic (@GEGOREIGN) reported@Dexerto crunchyroll has the worst overlay for years now with the horrible continue watching section that shows stuff i already ******* watched and can't REMOVE or delist without deleting the whole watch history. This ******* service is getting worse and worse every year.
-
Zero (@penguindayzero) reported@MangaAlerts What a terrible company. Barakamon is peak content. I'd say this is why you always buy physical but they're doing their best to get rid of that too. @Crunchyroll
-
Mr.Teatime (@MrTeatime10) reported@RandQalan I suppose that is true. I guess I took more issue with the fact that I know most of his stuff even if it has validity he just does for engagement bait and I've seen him made somewhat contradictory points just for the engagement. Crunchyroll definitely is crap.
-
Morindacil (@Morindacil) reported@RileyEatsGood Can I ask who's the CEO of Crunchyroll? The reason these terrible Indian English voice actors are appearing is because the CEO is most likely an Indian firing professional voice actors for cheap labor TEMU types from India.
-
LowMeHigh (@Witcher_Demon) reported@LeanaLovings It's awful too cause you're a fan of a series and you want to own the dvds then Crunchyroll was one of the few companies that officially licensed blu-rays (which is what Japan typically produced and those sales determined if a new season got made). But now it's basically impossible to collect dvds unless you're importing them with no subs and off a secondary market. When Funimation ended it was signaled the monopoly Crunchyroll has in the western anime market. We don't get to own anything anymore sadly

Zach 🇺🇸 (@VegetaReese) reportedThe day Crunchyroll uploads a One Piece on time and without issue will be the day Hell freezes over
-
Robin (@Robin87668217) reported@DoesItPlay1 I’m willing to let them burn themselves down at this point. Between physical media and the **** they just pulled with their Crunchyroll stores, they’re awful. Will never stop speaking out though, Sony needs a reality check.
-
Gamegodtre (@Gamegodtre76161) reported@G0ffThew Before funimation crunchyroll never had a problem with licenses.....
-
Shredder - Mass Effect (@Shredder1400) reported@RileyEatsGood The other problem with subscription services is they don’t keep up some of those favorites due to licensing and royalty fees. HBO Max took off so many classic cartoons recently, and Crunchyroll just took off Black Lagoon and others. With physical or piracy, you keep what you want

Chibi Reviews (@ChibiReviews) reportedIMPORTANT BREAKING NEWS!!! I need to raise awareness of this situation ASAP. There's a massive breach that has been happening and its currently being ignored. It can lead to serious issues in the future if left unchecked. Please share this tweet and like it for the higher ups can fix this serious issue. Now onto what is going on. I have been contacted by a very credible source confirming the origin of the leaks for multiple anime lately and recently "Mushoku Tensei Season 3 Episode 4" that started to appear on Reddit. Turns out it's not Crunchyroll causing the leaks. It's actually the Japanese VOD platform "b-ch" B-ch is a Japanese VOD site ran by Bandai Namco. Yes, the same Bandai Namco with OPM. This is their @/BandaiChannel on Twitter Now how did the Leak even happen? Here's the details and me explaining everything as best as possible. In the left image I have attached to this post, is how the episodes are leaking. The highlighted reference id is Mushoku Tensei's reference id aka episode 4 on Bandai Namco's platform. It shows the VOD container for the leaked episode opening and from there someone can use some simple tools to download the leaked episode. Basically they are accessing their site that has a clear vulnerability "I know this is technical if you don't know what you're looking at or understand stuff like this" However this is what has been happening and the reason so many episodes have been leaking lately days before the official release. Apparently the platform was contacted after episodes started to leak, but they didn't take the warning too serious which led to Mushoku Season 3 Episode 4 being leaked along other new anime shows

MemeBean5 (@Memebean51) reportedThis is why I dont use crunchyroll. They were a good pirating site until they somehow became an offical site and then they ******* ruined it with their subscriptions and prices, overall terrible streaming service
-
Thisguy (@name15911431) reported@G0ffThew Genuine question at this point what does Crunchyroll offer the anime community that Netflix doesn't? Sub quality is about the same or worse, a very similar anime collection, Similar release schedules.
-
Zahrik 🪩 (@zahrikd) reportedWhen im TRYING to watch anime legally by paying for crunchyroll but it always has an issue with my card.
-
Paul Mcmillin (@paulmcmillin5) reported@SiKthYEXP I figured it was coming when they banned my Crunchyroll account the only place I had any real money in digital, before Sony got ahold of them. And Crunchyroll went downhill in quality after Sony.
-
Murilo087 (@murilo087_) reported@SilentHxH Crunchyroll most recent leak was caused by a synchronization issue with YouTube Primetime involving Fate/strange Fake. Any leaks after that have come from other sources. To be honest, leaks from Crunchyroll itself have been pretty rare over the past few years.

-
Matt is not funny (@JudgementalBear) reported@PlayStation You're canning physical games, your Crunchyroll subsidiary is reducing physicals and paywalling physical anime purchases. You have set fire to decades of good will and you're not addressing anything. Fix your **** please. The idiots you've placed in charge need to go.

Vee_Mix (@VmoneyR) reported@JazzLikesToGame @Crunchyroll @lagoon_revy Good thing I bought the blu ray and dvd set many years ago. Saved myself from trouble there
