  Lightrex @ JINX IS MY LIFE (@The_Jinxinator) reported 6 minutes ago

  The PS6 generation will be absolutely terrible - Will have no discs - Will most likely be $1000 - Games will be $80 slop - I can imagine them making a PS plus subscription mandatory at some point to purchase in the digital store just like what Crunchyroll is doing to their store

  @ChibiReviews My sole reason for staying subscribed to Crunchyroll is to finish the Devil May Cry series; once done, I’m deleting it. Removing quality shows while retaining mediocre content is utterly nonsensical.

  @SilentRadioMist @divinetrickr Crunchyroll literally doesn't hire from unions. They're anti-union. The actual reason is because old dubs took years to make and new dubs are made within weeks of the Japanese, meaning quality is cut to meet demand quantity.

  @andresarawr @Orihime_chan0 By supporting Crunchyroll you: 1 - Don't support the artists 2 - You like censorship 3 - Enjoy low quality subtitles 4 - Support Incorrect Localization 5 - Love Removal of anime with no announcements etc

  @lookingnerdy @Zennyboi4 Quality wise, the leaked version was decent enough as it was leaked directly from Crunchyroll server. I don’t know how’s that a bad thing? As well as they respected Ufotable enough to upload it on the day they got officially released too.

  @GenePark I guess the push comes after games like Silksong didn't help them to rise the overall game price They want to increase with no possible comeback, like it happened with Crunchyroll, by starving all possible sources

  @JatlelGrapploct Sony owns Crunchyroll, & a lot of the issues plaguing Playstation also plague Crunchyroll. Recently, Crunchyroll just paywalled their store thus limiting access to blu-rays, & delisted several anime. Like Playstation, physical option are hit & digital options can be removed.

  The Xbox Series X the ultimate “Game Pass Machine” just makes more sense right now. -Runs whisper quiet. No jet engine whine while you’re trying to game or chill. -Stays cool under pressure with far fewer overheating issues. -Disc drive included. -Stronger firstparty momentum and a rapidly improving lineup. -Game Pass is the undisputed king of subscriptions: day one releases, massive library, PC + console, and better overall value for most players. -Committed to physical games long term unlike PlayStation, which is ending production of new physical discs in January 2028 and pushing everything to digital codes. -quick resume -dynamic backgrounds/themes -point/rewards system -looking for group -backwards compatibility -cloud gaming -Microsoft isn’t actively trying to kill the used/physical market like Sony’s direction suggests(PlayStation x Crunchyroll) At this point the main reasons left to grab a PlayStation is to play Spider Man or ride the remaining hype wave. But that wave has been slowing for a while. especially with Xbox gaining serious sales momentum in key markets and delivering better ongoing value. Next gen will be an entirely different ball game. Where tradition and anti consumerism fall too pro consumerism and innovation.

  @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

  Good Morning, X! Another day of wine and roses... What are your plots? Your plans? Your plunderings for today? Happy Monday, Gang! It's that time again, work and trolling PlayStation! Work is going very well, and sonia the trolling, hahaha. Hopefully, I have some time today to play more N64 games (on an actual N64) and Final Fantasy X in my Switch 2. I'm addicted to both! Been playing a lot of Smash Bros classic and Rogue Squadron. Rogue Squadron still looks and plays great! The ship details are still fantastic. Oh, before I forget: ---------NoDiscNoBuyALERT----------- How to fight SONY: SUPPORT #PSBlackout ! - No SONY purchases, log ins, or play sessions on any of their platforms starting Aug 23rd - 30th. You can start closing your wallet now! LFG! KEEP HARASSING PLAYSTATION ON X- Keep the community notes coming! People need to be warned of the dangers of an all digital future! Continue to remind SONY that we want PHYSICAL GAMES!!!! CANCEL PlayStation Plus CANCEL CRUNCHYROLL - owned by Sony and they are trying to limit the physical release of anime! DON'T BUY GTA6- why waste $100 on an empty box? DON'T see SONY films in theaters - Sorry Spider-Man and Resident Evil, I'm not seeing you in theaters or buying you new/digitally. Used physical or not at all for me. NO MORE DIGITAL or NEW PLAYSTATION GAMES - support your local used game store and buy used physical & retro!!! UNTIL Sony reverses course, our PlayStation 5s are closed for business. NO DISC 💿 NO BUY, MAKE SONY CRY ***This is not a purity test, only a guide on how to fight back. I can only control my wallet, and it's closed to SONY. At the end of the day, you do you and do what makes you and your family happy*** I'll be your voice in this battle, it will be an honor.

  @autopilotgod And I do think it's a rarity when you got a platform that doesn't promote crap that butchers everything it touches Plus Crunchyroll has the worst track record known to mankind. It's funny how you treat my words like gospel but truthfully I'm a nobody. 😐

  @peacecommander2 There’s the fact you clearly didn’t understand what I just explained, and then there’s the fact you cannot prove these supposed bots even exist. “A bot costs $10” is not evidence that Re0 fans actually bought any but is just an accusation you invented because the numbers clearly upset you, also crunchyroll likes are one isolated metric on a platform that has repeatedly mishandled Re:Zero through subtitle problems, translation errors, licensing issues and the AI subtitle controversy. A lot of Re:Zero fans simply watch it elsewhere (and even reaction channels that usually only watch Anime on CR watch Re:zero on fan translated episode or Muse Asia for that vert reason) so there is no reason to expect Crunchyroll engagement to perfectly represent the whole fanbase. Re0 tho is ahead across virtually every broader popularity metric people actuall use (even in Japan using Abema, Re:zero blows MT off the surface) and it has won five Crunchyroll Anime Awards while Mushoku Tensei has won none. Those awards are also decided through fan engagement so apparently Crunchyroll users are legitimate when they like an episode but suddenly unreliable when they vote for Re0. You have no evidence of bots, you ignored the platform specific explanation and you dismissed every metric that favors Re0 but are clinging to the one that favors Mushoku Tensei. You’re just coping gang, let it go.

  Sony buying Crunchyroll/Funimation and owning virtually 70% of anime distribution in the West was one of the worst things to happen. And on top of that, anime actors are still underpaid.

  @ASaundercock @Crunchyroll I get your point, but isn't there any way to implement this feature without causing those problems?

  Beatslars (@beatslars) reported 33 minutes ago

  Sony might be selling off assets a little bit at a time. Starting with licensing acquisitions, physical anime on their store they probably don’t think sells. scaling back. It’s a pretty awful move. They did recently sell their tv division to Chinese company TCL. #Crunchyroll

  @AlexisXelasix @Okeanix1 The entire re zero fanbase hates crunchyroll If u are even present in the fanbase for bit u would realize how much it's hated For every episode of season 3 it had terrible mistakes Not just minor but big mistakes Most fans use pirated sites Or fans subs of people like NotNikSmh

  @MentisWave I had a Crunchyroll membership for a while. It was nice having a legal option that had everything on it (or almost everything, with HiDive taking some shows). But the translation (or, rather, localizer) issues got to be too much, not to mention the security breach. Time to sail!

  APolygons2 (@APolygons2) reported 41 minutes ago

  @ChibiReviews The problem is, without real competition, not supporting them just reads as "less interest in anime" to the dumbass higher ups. Funimation and Crunchyroll merging is the real cause of these issues. We need Hidive to get bigger.

  @dragonfires2810 @NetflixAnime I’m not in Asia right now, or anywhere the movie streams on Netflix. Here it’s only on Crunchyroll. Video is good/fair, but audio doesn’t do justice to actual quality used in the movie

  The video quality is better than Crunchyroll (expected). I just need to check if I can find a subtitles file. VLC player supports the audio format for me.

  Rambling on Deck (@RamblingOnDeck) reported 50 minutes ago

  @johnny_univo And they are trying to kill off physical for anime as well. Bungie, Crunchyroll, Bluepoint. Insomniac has been losing quality per games, and House Marque's latest game was a flop. Bought Nixxes just to not stop doing PC ports. Is waste, after waste, and mismanagement after mismanagement.

  @alina_archival Simuldub gutted the quality. We used to wait months for thorough English dub/sub DVD releases with bonus outtakes and spoofs. Now Crunchyroll shits out dubs ASAP, so it can be streamed on their ******* site on release. CR does not care about dubs or physical media. they are evil
