  @yamanakanobody The problem is this. I watched "Sweetness and Lightning" with my wife years ago. Loved it. Now I want to watch it again, it's not available anywhere. Crunchyroll refused to renew its license. So its not on streaming services. I went to buy the DVD/Blu Ray. But this happens a lot.

  @yamanakanobody I have a few shows where I've pirated them just to get a good fan translation that is faithful to the original intentions of the work. I will absolutely pirate an anime if my only other option is paying Crunchyroll or Netflix or something like that.

  @StuckOn150 @SelflessGiftx @ZealousSeraphim I'm from Venezuela, my guy. There are pirating streaming services people pay for, and in exchange, you get access to everything on netflix, amazon, hulu, crunchyroll, etc. For less than it would cost to be subscribed to all of them. It's always a service issue.

  @Crunchyroll If I don't get the full anime from the official app itself then why won't I look for an alternative?It's not like I wanted to but it's what you made me do. So maybe just maybe fix your own website first and also research why do people not use your website first to satisfy payers.

  @TylaferPage @AnimexTwts Crunchyroll is crap. They don't have many many series. There's back log of anime that span older then crunchyroll existence. If it ACC had the library then maybe it would be alright. Their quality control is doodoo

  Localization accelerationism: the year is 2030.... the "Crunchyroll Nagatoro incident" turned even the worst normie into patriotic animejugend. The English language and all gaijin media are banned. Listening to VTuber streams in a lucid REM state before reading doujin to increase

  There is one major reason why anime fans choose pirated sites over official platforms like Crunchyroll. These sites have almost every anime and are well structured, so I can easily find and watch shows. I can also download episodes to watch later. On the other hand, Crunchyroll has only about 10% of the anime available compared to pirated sites. So imagine paying money to watch a series that doesn’t even exist on the official platform. There are more issues too - some anime are exclusive to Netflix or Amazon Prime Video, so you can’t watch them even after paying for one service. But on pirated sites, you can watch everything easily with a single click. Before shutting down sites like 9anime, hianime, Zoro to, and others, official platforms should at least add 50% more anime to their libraries, because most people can afford a dollar a month.

  @BlaqqCherii @AnimexTwts Is it really that hard to buy crunchyroll?? I mean yes, most of the older anime aren’t there but there still a huge part. It’s just so much easier to watch. All those sites are super laggy and worse quality. Crunchyroll you can watch on tv, high quality and rarely lags. 1/2

  @yamanakanobody Brazilian here, If there was a decent service with a huge catalog of anime, a decent video player to watch on, and a fair price, I would gladly pay for it. Unfortunately, Crunchyroll is terribly bad, despite being cheap, it has several problems.

  @ChibiReviews @ChibiReviews is it just me or are the localizers ******* **** up every time something happens? Because I only use the prime video subscription of Crunchyroll on the tv (because there is still no Crunchyroll app on my tv) and today everything that I have been trying to watch with English subtitles is ******* up. One series has the English subs literally ****** up and stop working half way through the episode and I don't even have English subs for other series as if they don't exist. I literally have to use the phone app and hook it up to the tv to watch my specific episodes. Is anyone else having these problems with Crunchyroll?????? Because I think that they are doing this to us on purpose, especially after what happened.

  @yamanakanobody It fully depends on the quality of the translation and localization. In the 90s and early 2000s we had 4kids which butchered iconic series like Pokémon. Even today we have crunchyroll which has a new problem every other week

  @Japaota2025 @Mashiro_yuh Some of the anime sites did it, Crunchyroll was a piracy site before, Funimation too but Crunchyroll bought it just to eliminate competition and in manga there's mangadex who was a piracy site and is the process to become legal but the problem with all of them is that when they+

  @embermaker2500 @AnimeSpotlightt Reading the information seems more a problems in distribution and rights, @Crunchyroll should have enough to fund the complete season without bat an eyebrow I read the original, some of te manwhua and up to date the animation, btw: I do believe it's better than many from JPN

  CowboyFox (@PassionOwl263) reported 42 minutes ago

  @Audbih @AnimexTwts No. Crunchyroll is a monopoly and they know it so they make it impossible to watch anime legally without paying an arm and a leg or watching a ridiculous amount of ads. Until these problems are solved im not paying for **** and im not watching ads either

  @Crunchyroll @netflix if your going to shut down pirating websites can you add these show then. I would love to keep paying you but you don't have the shows I want. Patlabor: Tv series Lupin the III movies Detective conan rest of the series. etc Infinite money glitch I promise

  It would be funny that anime becomes niche again and lose billions because pirate sites got taken down. There are no good anime streaming providers. Netflix, Hulu, Disney, Amazon, are for casuals and not anime focused. Crunchyroll is a terrible company all around.

  @Horrormovie317 @status_is_down Delete Crunchyroll then redownload it I had the same issue as you on my iPhone so I deleted it and reinstalled it and now it works perfectly fine I told someone else to delete it and reinstall it and it worked for them

  @yamanakanobody I do pay for Crunchyroll, my country supports artist copyrights! The only problem is that the manga prices are way too high ( is it normal to pay 3600¥ for one chapter?)

• 
  Rakka! (@gilgameshishere) reported 50 minutes ago

  @yamanakanobody its tricky right? I shell out the cash if it goes to original authors of the work, like manga I get a friend to buy takobon in japan an mail it to me, same as dvd or blueray. but paying companies like crunchyroll who employ people that ruin the authors intent is a no go for me

  @oruyu_dxrk @ZealousSeraphim It depends. I watch anime on my PC. PC has no native Crunchyroll app so I have to use the web app. And this is a well known problem on web app.

  hot take i dont think artists need to be inherently FOR not making money yes, i support piracy. i pirate all the time. i started getting into this SERIES by pirating before i had access to crunchyroll but its understandable she wouldnt approve of it. its HER work.

  @fool44922022 @Mashiro_yuh Subtitles aren't that hard to make and they are normally paid pennies for that kind of work. You have a ton of translators who are willing to do the job profesionally. Netflix figured out subs years ago. Or crunchyroll which was before a pirate website
