Crunchyroll Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Jedi Joker (@stumpf_john) reported@Crunchyroll a glitch is happening, where the subs are popping up on a different episode. This has happened a few times. I tried closing the app and restarting it on my TV, but it still keeps happening. It’s the subs from a previous episode.
-
Luxi (@AExquisiteGamer) reported@Crunchyroll FIX YOUR CONSOLE SERVERS! THEY’VE BEEN DOWN SINCE THE LATEST UPDATE. MULTIPLE PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE! THANKS

-
Nero (@nighttime1998) reported@p9cker_girl Can Y'all actually read the articles before you post them for once? This was a subsidiary of the company in Japan. Crunchyroll overall has seen rapid growth in the last several years. Going up nearly 4x since 2022 from ≈5 million to 21m+ Seeing just last year, an additional 4 million subscribers. Like they have issues, and call them out. That is perfectly fine. But stop making up false narratives in the name of hating just to hate. You lose any relevance you actually have towards the argument when you do stuff like this.

Nightowl (@Nightowl_85) reported@CletusT1986 I think both were a consequence of having 2 large of a block with too many premieres. Just other shows could’ve been shifted down instead As for MHA, this “Sony Pictures Television” workaround for Blue Lock and Tokyo Revengers may help them bypass Crunchyroll
-
Kieron Davies (@KieronDavies16) reported@TheGriftReport I'm sorry but if the only thing I watch anything on is netflix and crunchyroll, which I pay for already, you better believe I'm not also gonna pay on top of that just to have the right to watch the things I already pay for. It's already awful, and doing this makes it worse
-
Re: Zero News by Ice (@rezero_ice) reported@DekuTier14598 If this is the case, and the same for all affected regions, Crunchyroll is having licensing issues with them mid-season. Which is just pure, ******* incompetence.
-
『piaatsey』 (@piaatsey) reported@Crunchyroll @Crunchyroll_de I LITERALLY PAID 4 TIMES FOR YOUR 3 MONTH SUBSCRIPTION PLAN, EVERY PAYMENT WENT THROUGH BUT YOU KICK ME EVERY 5 MINUTES? WHAT ******** IS YOUR PROBLEM BRO I JUST WANNA WATCH RE ZERO
-
Matt (@Kedrael) reported@Crunchyroll Fix your @Xbox servers, it’s been 24 hours
-
chay (@innercourtnotes) reportedQue mierda es Crunchyroll why do I pay for this **** if it doesn’t work
-
Gamer_Gator (@_Gamer_Gator) reported@RealAF_Patriot Case & point: if Digital ID verification gets its way, & given the history of breaches like discord, crunchyroll, sony, etc. chances are it not only censors criticism of unethical actions by corrupt governance, but also entraps kids who do use Digital ID. ID theft is a problem.
-
ShadowTheRanger ~ Chaotic Gremlin (@DemonCosplays) reported@Crunchyroll can you please actually have a working app if you are trying to charge terrible prices, videos pausing and stuttering on high speed broadband, can't even remember where the last episode in a series is.
-
Will-o'-the-wisp (@_Follow_The_) reported@fearbehere @satorukun_0530 A lot of people watch it subbed for preference or not wanting to wait months for crunchyroll to care, is it suddenly an issue for them to use the name they're familiar with because the dub ended up changing the name
-
Lukas (@lukas_ngrl) reported@TMarino302 @KuroSekaiAnime Hard work is what the fansub does, they work for free and have a quality so superior to crunchyroll that the company should be ashamed.
-
💜 Lilith House ❤️ (@Mawilemaxxing) reported@AlbarnsDemon No, they PARTNERED with Crunchyroll to produce a series the same way other companies will partner with each other, that doesn’t mean Glitch was given funding by them, and they had to give thanks to epic fir using their engine
-
カリスト (@calistraal) reported@ForzaHorizon @Crunchyroll worst collab
-
AlliRu🍉 (@AlliSenpai15) reported@Thy9 Yes it is in crunchyroll. IkIK am currently watching about 8 series and only 2-3 are on dub latino. Rest is Japanese, no problem at all.
-
㊝Kakarotto㊝ (@SebastinPortals) reported@YourStarOnFlag Of course not, breaking the internet isn't what you see these days, breaking the internet is what Dragon Ball Super did, (the one and only so far) These days they tell you that like 20 anime series broke the internet by taking down Crunchyroll, when Crunchyroll's servers are crap.
-
ً..? (@xexair) reportedm old enough to have existed before wattpad became unusable with ads and when crunchyroll was still a pirating site 😕
-
reactguides (@reactguides) reported@Sage2612 Awful communication to users from @Crunchyroll too. Quite a few people were caught in the middle of the season or intending to watch it. Warning some days/weeks beforehand, is something any other streaming platform does at least.
-
Ricardo Torres (@rtorres_brz) reported@crtosko @KuroSekaiAnime I can guarantee they enforce the max. devices policy because three days ago I got a glitch on my Chrome browser and Crunchyroll started to block me saying I was trying to use more than one device.
-
michael b mcclain (@DJMM32Mcclain) reported@AniRave Well to speak truthfully Crunchyroll has two major problems. One: Crunchyroll should have known their high numbers was only temporary 2020 wasn't going to last forever. Two: they made more bad mistakes than good especially when it comes to people's personal data.
-
David Sam (@DavidSam181) reported@SelflessGiftx Crunchyroll provide highest bitrate ever piracy sites quality plus bitrate are worst, you should watch it on crunchyroll
-
vik (@bitesiz3) reportedi’m sneezing and crunchyroll is not working i hate it here
-
💫lavender🌙 (@pettyfuriosa) reported@vmohv Listen guys i watched through crunchyroll and i don’t understand the anime pacing issues people have because i would just fast forward 5 seconds if a frame held for too long or if they did a flashback again and that worked perfectly fine for me.
-
YuYu HakuHorrè 🇯🇲 (@ProblemticPanda) reportedCrunchyroll is really the worst app I’ve ever had the displeasure of using 😣😣
-
nana 🍊 (@nanasanhq) reported@Crunchyroll not every episode of one piece is back, fix it
-
Ray Gibson (@zdub200) reported@Crunchyroll on @XBOX isn’t working, fix it please
-
DUNGEON-00X (@Dungeon00X) reportedThis is not even a rights issue, this is Sony being Sony again. They own A-1 Pictures, Aniplex AND Crunchyroll, so this coming shitstorm is all on THEM! They did this with Expelled From Paradise and they're doing it now, screw Sony. Cancel your Crunchyroll subscriptions.
-
curtis osko (@crtosko) reported@rtorres_brz @KuroSekaiAnime Okay. Fair enough. You can’t have expected me to know that you aren’t in a first world English speaking country though. Honestly I can’t speak on the state of crunchyroll where you live because I obviously know nothing about the pricing or the quality.
