Crunchyroll Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
NagaBruh (@NagaBruh) reported@nobarevy Crunchyroll has the worst localisers in the business, not surprising
-
manganime2025 (@manganime2025) reported@OtakuSpirited They pay the most for buying streaming licenses and they pay for production costs of many anime, judging from end credits(I can read Japanese). So, without Crunchyroll earning enough, anime industry can fade = lower quality + small number of anime. So, I support for Crunchyroll.
-
Zamarripa🇲🇽 (@Eldezacatecas27) reported@DBSuperUniverse @Crunchyroll @hulu Terrible powerscaling.
-
Kuro (@kur01ya) reported@Edo_Kaden Sora was a failure since the beginning. It was literally floptok lol, not a good example. Hope you are right about crunchyroll. But them being a monopoly gives them to much power, if they reduce their prices that will just give them the excuse to reduce their service quality too.
-
Haremiel (@eggydoge) reportedCrunchyroll please fix your servers dawg I swear it is down degraded almost every week
-
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.
-
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
-
Sean (@Sean09711499) reported@yankeesabc @KilZeroZ Crunchyroll messed up by even making A-cat studio a choice for turtleme to begin with I can't fully blame turtleme, since the director did say he was a "fan of his work", and i don't fully blame A-cat either because a bag is a bad Almost all fault fell on Crunchyroll😭
-
a_salamence | #TENOÍ (@makima_best_gal) reported@glitchshay my prediction is that ep 1 will break crunchyroll servers and people will be upset about the animation being too good, lets see how it goes
-
geuperhalleberry (@jaegeripsum) reportedWhy is it only possible to use English subtitles with Japanese dub. I want to watch a series with Italian dub and English sub. Can you please fix this @Crunchyroll #crunchyroll
-
Edo Kaden (@Edo_Kaden) reported@kur01ya I don’t know where sora came into this but ok? And if Crunchyroll does lower prices and quality, it’s just gonna be worse for them. Piracy exists and Netflix and other company’s are doing a way better job with anime. I would even bet someone might launch a new service.
-
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.
-
カリスト (@calistraal) reported@ForzaHorizon @Crunchyroll worst collab
-
Kolton (@Kole4560) reported@Crunchyroll A big ole nothung burger, literally got no response from an actual reprenstive about the issue. Instead your so fixated in taking down websites you are neglatcing your actual consumers and this is gonna come back and bite you. Me personally im done with this serivce forever
-
Moxy (@GottMoxy_) reported@chocoratto77 It's a shame, but there's the issue of the translators overseas (specifically the US/English dub) mistranslating in favor of pushing certain ideals (instead of being accurate to the source) or sites like Crunchyroll overcharging more and more on top of the insane amount of ads.
-
Eric Hall 🇻🇦🇺🇸 | 🇮🇱🇬🇾 (@EricHall4) reported@ringingbl00mm I think the worst part is the actual anime studios see next to nothing of the millions of dollars of profit crunchyroll has
-
ᴸᵒᵛᵉʳˢ ᴬʳᵉ ᵀʳᵉᶰᵈʸ ᴮᵃᵇʸ (@DandyInLuv) reported@Crunchyroll fix ur subtitles, they are incorrect. Even one piece? why am I - a non native, understanding the flaws/cracks in translation. Please.
-
ShawnTayWise (@KyoAlexiel) reported@Demonslayer877 @RockemmGG @AnimexTwts It's not crunchyroll. Wanna know a truth alot of people not aware of? All social media is military controlled. It's all on the servers now even if you delete it at this point. Naming these websites on any social media expose them.
-
Re: Zero News by Ice (@rezero_ice) reportedChecked on a Thai VPN. Same issue. If users from these regions could also further confirm, that'd be helpful. I had one guy from India (without VPN) confirm Re: Zero Season 4 wasn't available on Crunchyroll anymore.
-
Riley (@RileyEatsGood) reported@Gw2Mike @Ex_Soldier23 You’re not wrong, but it’s also worth mentioning that the license to Eighty Six wasn’t taken away, the individual services decided to not renew. We need more data to know why it’s happening, but as a consumer, it’s natural to be upset at Crunchyroll for not working a deal out.
-
geuperhalleberry (@jaegeripsum) reportedHey @Crunchyroll can you fix your application?
-
Chris St.Germain (@KanekiSno_) reported@animeposts All of y'all getting mad at crunchyroll for removing anime of their platform when it's not their choice. Once the contract from Studios are up they cant do nothing about it if the studios dont wanna renew those contracts. It's a licensing issue
-
Jt 🦌 (0-0) 🐏 (0-0) (@lovebreaddd) reportedImagine using mid in 2026 couldn’t be me and if u actually defend Crunchyroll please bro block me ain’t no way u defending that ****** *** site and don’t say oh u broke? Im not if they were actually a good provider i probably would pay for it but no they aren’t they are awful
-
Jojonathan (@Keruiwa) reportedThe worst, cruelest, torturous death to Crunchyroll 🙏
-
DVP7 (@ChaosTriforce7) reported@SheeGee @B_Rabbit843 Crunchyroll is a terrible company.
-
MaskTheta ✝ (@RealTankTheta) reported@animeposts I'm glad. Crunchyroll got too greedy and too intrusive with awful dubs, a clunky website and garbage projects funded that actively tried to poison the industry. They deserve this fall. Should of happened sooner tbh.
-
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...
-
Shadow The Wise Wolf🐾💜🦴⚔️ (@ShadowWiseWolf) reported@Sareniia Dead *** I can’t, it’s my login to Crunchyroll
-
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.
-
gammongaming (@gammongaming) reported@p9cker_girl good, **** crunchyroll. they provide a terrible service. if they were closer to steam, people would subscribe, but they are actually terrible.
