Lesbionic Republicunts (@dervishmandala) reported@Crunchyroll yo, can you guys take a look at the multitude of errors in your English subtitles? I'm watching Psycho Pass and it's getting so many words and names incorrect. Feels like the captions are AI generated. Please... one human could fix this in a day...
-
Chris St.Germain (@KanekiSno_) reported@CTMT03K64 They don't steal Voice Actors considering they work with damn near every anime studio there is. Crunchyroll is used as their main hub and both studio & Crunchyroll work on the voice actor casting together. As for the selling ppl info there's still no proof about that. Just claims
-
XToxic_AssassinX (@XToxicAssassinX) reported@animeupdates It be funny if it turned out crunchyroll was using the pirate website servers to stream their stuff 💀
-
Amaar Ahmed (@ammar_o11) reportedJust woke to hearing that AnimeKai got taken down. What in the world is happening to the anime sites. Someone legit has burn down crunchyroll servers atp
-
docsre (@MSredharan) reportedDoes anyone else has premium activation issues with @Crunchyroll ? Their customer support has been super unhelpful even after sharing all the payment details.
-
abhisek (@Abhisek026) reportedHey @Crunchyroll, I purchased the Premium subscription and the payment has already been debited from my account, but my premium access is still not activated. Please help resolve this issue. #Crunchyroll
-
nnnnm (@Ilyholl34) reported@mabdooi Yeah I heard the dub is getting recorded at some moments and obviously the subs will be fixed on other sites as time goes but it's disappointing how crunchyroll manages to make a major translation error every episode
-
Glov (@xgoglov) reported@Geo_AW Crunchyroll is gabrage. Regional locked shows, lack of shows in general, forced sub/dubs, terrible service so on and so on. Just stick to one piece bro
-
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.
-
Mona🚫 (@ankowaifu) reported@cannab1senjoyer all of these sites use the same servers for streaming, and they have ton of mirrors, so yeah ... but this inconvenience makes some cave and pay for garbage like crunchyroll and that's exactly what they want going after these sites
-
DVP7 (@ChaosTriforce7) reported@SheeGee @B_Rabbit843 Crunchyroll is a terrible company.
-
Spanzx (@urcheapo0o) reported@onepirateking1 To all anime web makers out there. Stay strong and keep retaliate harder by making more webs. Also, **** crunchyroll. Worst web I’ve ever used.
-
sleeping Dragon King Chronicles (@animekatexxx) reported@Crunchyroll it's lovely how you try to get people to subscribe to your system but here's the problem with you you it says dubbed you cook on it instead of being in your language it's something from Europe or the Middle East **** you
-
The Protagonist (@dgitalstuntman) reportedCrunchyroll still one of the worst streaming platforms out there.
-
㊝Kakarotto㊝ (@SebastinPortals) reported@Bitsuda The Jin Woo vs Beru fight didn't break the internet, but it did crash Crunchyroll, which is saying something. This fight is like 10 times bigger than the Jin Woo vs Beru You may like Solo Leveling more or less, but one thing you can't deny is its popularity and impact.
-
Az_Raz_Mataz (@StygiScream) reportedHey, @Crunchyroll why are your servers so ****?
-
Crawl 🐶 (@asdcrawl) reportedA-cat should go down as the worst animation studio to ever be made and Crunchyroll should be ashamed of themselves for using them TBATE, the TBATE anime doesn’t exist! Please PLEASE go read the manga it’s fantastic don’t let the anime be how you know it
-
kitasan (@snotTaylor333) reported@rezero_ice To me, it felt like the use of "Fairies" here was meant to be mocking the spirits in a way. Like calling them weak or delicate. Not trying to defend crunchyroll or anything they still suck, but i didn't see it as much of an error compared to previous translations.
-
Kev (@Kev57382523) reported@Crunchyroll The worst high pitched male voice. Insufferable. Turned a nice watch into something unbearable. Whoever cast the MC in English must be fired
-
Rikai (@ImRikai) reported@DlerAccount You see, the real issue is that most anime is not available on streaming platforms, specially since the licenses are per-region, so pirating is just the only option for a lot of people. I paid for Crunchyroll before, but everything I wanted to watch wasn't available so I left.
-
Josh Gojidile (@DrummerGoji) reported@milkynoe God I wish crunchyroll wasn’t blocked at work 🥲
-
Anime Spotlight (@AnimeSpotlightt) reported9/ People pirate less when: • Simulcasts are fast • Apps work well • Libraries are huge • Dubs/subs are localized • Quality is high • Watching legally becomes easier Spotify reduced music piracy. Netflix reduced movie piracy. Crunchyroll is slowly doing the same for anime
-
Rob Pereyda (@rpereyda) reportedWhen everyone moves in one direction, look the other way. Not to be contrarian — but because “market consensus” is often just a fancy term for the status quo. In 2008, I was told I’d “ruin my career” if I joined Crunchyroll. The company had just closed its Series A, but no one in the industry took them seriously. Anyone with “real” licensing experience wanted nothing to do with them. I joined anyway. Five days after my first call with the founders, I was on a plane to Japan. While the rest of the industry played it safe, I built the foundation of anime in the West: • The first anime SVOD model — from scratch. • Revshare formulas that gave licensors real upside for the first time. • The first 60 licensing deals that proved it could scale. This alignment is what made the platform work. It’s what turned a “career-ending move” into Sony’s $1.2B acquisition. Don’t just follow deal flow. Find the gaps where everyone else is afraid to go. That’s where the real opportunities hide.

Oliver Flask (@OliverBuildsAI) reported@testingcatalog I'm sorry but that anime sample is goofy as all hell. The timing, pacing, placement, framing, and effects work is all so disjointed that if any anime looked like this on Crunchyroll it would have a 2/5 rating for sure.
-
Hellsing Organization (@Homo_sapien21) reported@onepirateking1 But what about quality, these piracy site sure has 1080p but not real 1080p, their bitrate is very low and they have compressed videos (1.5gb --> 250mb) so HELL NO Either CRUNCHYROLL or TORRENT But never use these cheap sites like Hianime, Animekai, Animepahe etc
-
SkagthePrinceofHell (@SkagthePrince) reported@Cody87146068 @GoddessCatto Yeah, service problem because CRUNCHYROLL WAS THE ONE THAT BACKED IT.
-
I LOVE YOU SUNSET SHIMMER (@Royal_Thorn) reported@PLUTOXDpspspsps I dont think pirating would work anymore because of crunchyroll and also my parents would never get me a subscription cuz im the only one watching anime
-
Aditya Chaudhary (@userAdityaa) reported@Itstheanurag @Crunchyroll crunchyroll is one of the worst platform to watch anime from, not even lying. Try animekai.
-
DVP7 (@ChaosTriforce7) reported@MakiNami244 @B_Rabbit843 No. Crunchyroll is really terrible as a company.
