Kikurikick Appreciator 🐔 (CR: idk tbh) (@kfp_prophet) reported@ALTA_smile @TonalWeaver It varies but most companies don't really care about their customers beyond profit Crunchyroll, which essentially has a monopoly over anime distribution overseas, is infamous for cutting costs, poor quality service and AI translations,

Crutch (@Crutch37257774) reported@kyuusyuha_001 Our corporations **** with customers, so we don't want to give Netflix or Crunchyroll any money (people that have money at all). Your corporations **** over the creators by not paying them, that's why you want to support the artists. The issue is that our goals are different.

Ice❄️ (@IceGamer495) reported@bob_mcblob @JanchoRZ @Crunchyroll Dude have you not realized the people who do the translations at CR are the reason why ep 2 has no errors also they already noticed the mistakes and are fixing them

Mary Alana (@maryag) reported@CCTakato @Crunchyroll Well I shouldn't say not but I'm guessing the name "Assassination Classroom" is an issue and the fact its with kids.

-
TheFlammifer (@theflammifer) reported@magozone23 We want the work to be faithful to the original. Unfortunately the translators at companies like Crunchyroll are all activists pushing an agenda. It needs to stop and we need the Japanese companies to crack down on malicious mistranslations.

WildSouls (@wildsoulest) reported@kaminarumono77 1. Would you then argue that things like netflix or crunchyroll are unecessary then, because they serve the same purpose as steam does as a third party middle man between the consumer and the producer. Also what would be the proposed solution to account for not having a third party? 2. A manga version of steam is globally available and actually serves regional pricing, refunds Using Bookwalker as an example which suites for all of them on average , a large category of the selection is region locked, and gives zero option for regional pricing, offline support is limited with drm not making it available for for Ereaders so if you need a Ereader due to a disability your **** out of luck. While steam gives all of that, and more. 3. How is that steams fault in anyway that they can prevent or fix? Are we going to say that Sony, Microsoft, or Google are contrived/convuluted because they make to much profit off their store. Steam obviously invest that profit back in to company by improving the store, SteamOs, the steamdeck, the vr, making games etc.

BloodBlossom (@BloodBlossom1) reported@p9cker_girl @MofuMofuDraws Its time for crunchyroll to shut down…. If they cant remain faithful to the original, then they dont deserve any work
-
skeeper (@skeeeperr) reported@AyakaMods Not everything needs localization. Anime fans know what kun and san mean. Whoever made the Crunchyroll subtitles just complicated their own work for no reason and got worse results
-
Royal_Stray (@StrayRoyal) reported@Mashiro_yuh Crunchyroll is a company many people lost respect for, not only because of their awful translations that are done on purpose. But also because staff was reported openly talking down about otaku and anime in general, saying some pretty cruel things about people using Crunchyroll
-
Rustle (@teahorses) reported@nanasamib The distribution options for Americans support terrible companies like Crunchyroll who deserve death.
-
Iftekhar Ifty (@Ifty2006) reported@NightWalke72639 @Tipsall001 Theaters cannot be crashed r u okay bro? Also Infinity Castle movies won't crash Crunchyroll since all of them will be theater exclusive for very long time and then before official release majority will pirate so official streaming release won't have much hype
-
Soul58 (@bardocksaiyanZ1) reported@AmbroseJSerra @Crunchyroll the worst girl
-
Deforl (@deforl) reported@LN_Master_Hub @AyakaMods And you are being disingenuous. People keep pointing out the constant alteration of the translation from Crunchyroll. This is just one more point on the graph for them and their constant changes. They alter and insert their own opinions completely changing the work of the artist.
-
Yura 「Gozyu Styra」***** (@Ecchi_Zombie) reported@SirZombieCrocs 😔doubt it. TADC/Glitch actively talk to the theatres and made the call to action by telling their fans to try emailing them.... Crunchyroll probably just dumped it to theatres and didnt care about how long they would keep it there.
-
hassan shokr (@hassanshokr6) reported@Crunchyroll Why does Vash the Stampede make a terrible secret agent? Because he's a $6,000,000 (roughly $2 trillion in today's money) walking disaster zone.
-
Suvikyi (@suvikyi) reportedI used to volunteer as a timer for fansub groups, back before Crunchyroll got big. I was one of those pirates that helped anime which did not have an official translation or license overseas find fans. I despise these people. These people who cannot respect cultural differences, who think the world should bow to their own views, who loudly proclaim indecency while being indecent people themselves. I have a strong detest for these people. I sometimes look back now and think that it wasn't worth it. Why did we put in all of that work only to have those efforts turn into something where Japanese creators are attacked by the people here? It's depressing.
-
Preston (MR. TDX) (@MR__TDX) reported@Sagesaga Yeah it was on Crunchyroll, i genuinely hope they fix it because it generally made me upset when i watched the episode.
-
DarkRoastWeeb (@TouhouPrisoner) reportedAs someone who pays for Crunchyroll (I'm not teaching my 71 year old mom how to pirate when I still help her with CR), it's an ****** company. CR is a multi billion dollar company but offers services that it should be embarrassed about.
-
viperion (@viperio76050352) reported@NAFCA_official I do what I can by buying manga and dvd's of anime when I can, but when it comes to those "legitimate channels," a lot of work is needed. Crunchyroll is a terrible service and not worth paying. I hope to see good services in the future that are actually worth paying.
-
MikuXLegend (@mikutweets4ever) reported@animetv_off I want Crunchyroll to have it please or at least an option to buy it digital that’ll work too 🥺🥺
-
avi (@nektworks) reportedSeems like Crunchyroll is changing their web video player for the worse: 1. No longer uses SubtitlesOctopus for *** subtitles, instead using hardsubs. Note that hardsubs were already used on the TV/mobile version. 2. No more direct quality selection.
-
strajk- (@strajk_) reported@raisetom @Marte_Aleks Yes, because it will never be 0. It's a service issue which both of us already agreed on. The best way to combat piracy is to provide a better service, platforms like Netflix and Crunchyroll were the main force in combating pirating because they provided what the consumer wants.
-
siccentry (@siccentry) reported@Zilnado @WildG_Jeff Yeah, people like supporting creators. Steam solved the games problem. Spotify solved music. Crunchyroll (mostly) solved anime. These are overwhelmingly popular compared to piracy.
-
Ice❄️ (@IceGamer495) reported@JanchoRZ @Crunchyroll They been notice that they gonna fix it
-
Ranra0211486 (@Ranra0211486) reported@CrossFMP @VOLCHITO_ Yeah I'd never tell a manga artist I pirated their work. It's not shame. Moreso that there is no happy outcome from saying that. You know stuff like Crunchyroll, very little money goes to voice actors or animators? Pretty sure same goes for VIZ, publishers get the money.
