  @KyokoSo2J @Crunchyroll Part 2 even though it says you've purchased it, if you can't access 100% of the game, it basically means you're only "renting" it. The problem is, even if you buy a physical game copy, if the game is online-only and the servers shut down, you won't be able to play it anymore.

  @fearlessxz @AnimeSpotlightt Yes, it's true. "Release That Witch" (the 2026 donghua) was cut short after Episode 8 due to funding and production issues with the distributor. It aired weekly on Crunchyroll from March 2 to April 20, 2026, but was originally planned for a longer first season (some reports say 12–24 episodes) before cuts. No Season 2 is confirmed yet, though fans have started a petition.

  The quality of anime on streaming services is so ******* bad sometimes I can't even believe how bad the audio for Dragon Ball is on Crunchyroll and I don't want to hear how "it's always like that" because it's not nearly as muddy on my DVDs from the 2000s, thanks

  @tbhimjustyk @DerpressionNaH @theotakuinsider Yeah no, I didn’t state that at all Lol. But okaye whatever makes you feel better. And what do you mean *******? Crunchyroll has the most catalog out of any app there is. Look it up. The only things that outdo crunchyroll is illegal sites that pirate them. So 1: No, never stated that you can watch crunchyroll on everything. It’s quite the opposite and that’s with EVERY streaming app. Netflix, Hulu, hbo, prime. Tubi, it’s all a monopoly my friend. There’s also a thing called licenses. There’s a reason why shows get taken off or added. Licenses expire this isn’t anything new. Stupid and ignorant kids just come to Twitter to ***** when this is just how it works. Not saying it’s perfect. But blaming crunchyroll, your best legal option to watch anime is just futile and stupid, and contradictory to any streaming app. Keep pirating then it’s not my problem. If you can’t afford 14$ a month I’m afraid you have bigger problems.

  I cannot think of a more clear metaphor for how Crunchyroll treats anime. All of the ACTUAL anime characters are ACTUALLY drawn by ARTISTS, then Crunchyroll lazily inserts their empty mascot with AI while taking all the credit for the real work.

  @SeehIsMe And Crunchyroll is a terrible service anyway, they want you to pay? Make a service worth paying for then.

  @mohammedjrpg That is a good question. I would like to know too. I also want to preorder. It seems weird that I can't. A licensing issue is likely. I see similar things often with anime when the dub vanishes from a streaming site like Crunchyroll but the original remains.

  @bonevoid I'd rather continue pirating than give Crunchyroll a dime Piracy is a service problem Used to have Funimation as an alternative but you'll never guess who bought/owns it :)

  I'm so happy they didn't get it before the rebrand, that crunchyroll design was awful

  lotmsarvin (@lotmsarvin93142) reported 24 minutes ago

  @NoNamesSong @Suzain77 Either way. Does jp help with popularity? Yes. But that's not the reason why I said this. This is for people who think everything needs to be in Japanese. What kind of reason is that ? Tbhx is the second most popular donghua in Crunchyroll behind lotm. But what did it take? It literally got promoted as an anime by Crunchyroll and all of them watched it in Japanese dub, when the Chinese dub just got ignored. Lotm is the way for other people to get used to donghuas and to get popular in the anime community

  @Dexerto Both are terrible for anime though. Netflix obviously has a much larger subscriber base to begin with so they're more likely to carry a higher number. But their selection is spotty and seasonal. Crunchyroll has a better library, but they sell data and create cruddy localizations.

  Titanism (@Titanism69) reported 28 minutes ago

  @yamanakanobody Depends on the service quality of the official services. For example, Crunchyroll is a popular site, but has a bad service. If the service is good, I am willing to pay.

  Sony Group have the anime platform = Crunchyroll and some anime studios, which is well known, however, many people tend not to recognize they are paying a lot to make the quality of anime higher. Now I've got to feel it's unfair some weird people keep blaming Crunchyroll overly.

  @AnimexTwts Crunchyroll would be great if they could sort out the localisation and if everything was on there, turn comments back on, fix the boot up to not auto play what you last watched. And **** off hiring people with agendas to translate the subs.

  @Crunchyroll Good day. I had an account 3 years ago but due to financial problems I had to close it. Now I am try to open it again using the same email and it says I have to enter a valid email address. Funny thing I've been getting emails from you using the very same email

  holysmokes (@holysmokes_84) reported 36 minutes ago

  @SeehIsMe The service itself is ****. Crunchyroll tries to force you into watching dubs because their subtitles have an error where they go out of sync. I can't think anything more disgusting than trying to force people to watch dubs. What kind of nomie **** is that?

  @grimsikk @AnimexTwts Crunchyroll has had a long list of issues with the way they treat their customers and workers with distinct that it is not even worth supporting even if it's the morally best way most of the time.

  @ChibiReviews Whoa, whoa, don't smile too broadly there, Chibi. It's NETFLIX! Sure, Crunchyroll deserves to crash and burn after all it's done, but Netflix are very close to being just as bad.

  @Shadaya_Knight I'm an anime fan and I only use Crunchyroll when I absolutely have to. Netflix's UI isn't a ****** broken mess, so yeah when possible I use it.

  @yamanakanobody Piracy is on the upswing in the US again because everything is fragmented across multiple streaming services which keep raising their prices. Along with the general terrible state of our economy. Otherwise people used to prefer paying for subscriptions like Crunchyroll.

  @Dexerto I have plenty of problems with crunchyroll but I doubt netflix would be better long term and also at this time their offerings are much more limited.

  @ChibiReviews Both have their issues, but I'll take Crunchyroll over Netflix any day tbh. They actually offer multiple additional benefits while still being cheaper.

  @Mashiro_yuh It is a legitimate problem with crunchyroll and netflix, that their translations tend to essentially add out of nowhere comments, or completly change entire word exchange for no good reason. Crunchyroll even releasing unfinished versions of anime. Im not gonna pay for more ofTHIS
