Crunchyroll Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
🐝Suzume Bachi🐝 (@TheMenyaHime) reported@TylaferPage @AnimexTwts Crunchyroll has continually put out incorrect subtitles, poor localization, and just work that is completely wrong lately. Telling people to pay for a flawed product is crazy
-
Dubious1ty (@Dubious1ty) reported@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.
-
Cruxador (@Cruxador) reported@Mashiro_yuh Yes, Crunchyroll also has streaming. This is why piracy in anime has decreased a lot. But the quality and accuracy are often worse than pirated versions, since those are made by volunteer fans.
-
Manolo 🇧🇷 (@omanoloneto) reported@GodListens777 @m90w09m @Mashiro_yuh Yes, there are cheaper plans in some cases, but they usually come with important limitations — for example, mobile-only access, only one user, and ads. Crunchyroll also has lower-cost options depending on the market. And that actually proves the point: when anime is officially available in Brazil in an accessible way, it is usually much less targeted by piracy. The titles that are most often pirated are usually the ones that are not officially available anywhere in Portuguese. So for many people, the issue is not “I refuse to pay.” It is often “there is no realistic official option in my language.”

Bruce Wayne (@TheRealShangaan) reportedMy boy calls me saying he’s bored, he needs movie recommendations... Shap, I say “you’ve got my CrunchyRoll login, go watch JJK.” And this mf tells me that he can’t be watching cartoons as a grown man. Go watch a documentary then wtf!? 😭
-
Aizen (@TechyAizen) reportedThere 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.

Leon Nabura D'Vine Runeheart/💜🪽💫/🤍⚙️/❤️🔥🐗 (@LeonDVine) reported@Audbih @AnimexTwts I'll spend it when I find a service that dwarves every pirate website out there in terms of everything, including but not limited to: >Content >Ease of use >Translation quality >Streaming quality Can you recommend me one? Crunchyroll clearly doesn't have that.
-
Speeginator (@Speeginator) reported@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.
-
Antonino Zotoro (@DavidJa71760997) reported@Crunchyroll aye, I dunno how yall rocking over there but, fix ya **** *** system. I can’t recover my ******* account nor log in. You hoes been charging me monthly and I assume let some hacker get my account!… aye you ****** are gonna have to answer ASAP
-
Harman (@Harman17548094) reported@mixmuses @LOTM_WORLD Yes. Beside the historical beef, another reason the lotm team may not want a Japanese dub is due tocrunchyroll labelling lord of mysteries as Japanese. Of course this isn't a problem now and crunchyroll has gotten around to advertising it more by releasing date on special ep date
-
Spellbook Janna ⛈️ (@MonsoonMommy) reported@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 :)
-
Exodus (@Keyblader007) reported@weebscript_ @Crunchyroll Sadly I was too OCD to give up and I wanted to see what was going to happen with the genie guys. It wasn't what I expected but not terrible. Thank God there was no guys kissing or anything. For me that would be a big turn off.
-
Becca (@phantomsoups) reported@Crunchyroll fix the season 3 dub you ruined i still haven’t forgiven you💔
-
Laapchau (@OhLaapchau) reported@SeehIsMe Also, Crunchyroll is part of the localizing problems.
-
🌸Sam🌸 (@Kabukimononoke) reportedanytime im talking to my coworkers about anime and they find out the show im watching isnt on crunchyroll or netflix the convo just ends regardless of if the were interested in the work or not, incurious and opiated generation raised on instant streaming gratification
-
Troy Osinoff 🕺 (@yo) reportedWorst inventions ever: • atomic bomb • leaded gasoline • dedicated buttons on the TV remote that open “Sling” or “Crunchyroll” against your will
-
Uncultured (@Uncultured91) reported@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.
-
Goldship 💛 (@thisappisass69) reported@MHALoreMaster @MHAOfficial @Crunchyroll Lmfao go face ur anger to real problems getting this upset is genuinely pathetic I know I’m above you so I don’t even have to insult you dub watcher 😭
-
MikeyL (@m1k3y_l) reported@Crunchyroll episode 394 to 405 and the story of Brooks life before turning skelly, the English dub audio is delayed, you need to fix that ****. I missed the punch on the dragons and the fight before the Amazon lily arc
-
Isaac Mena (@Lucky7saac) reported@Crunchyroll service is worst by the day. Now I can't play English dub with English sub.
-
Akame (@akamebigtits) reportedissue is streamers/youtubers/twitter it self. anime has grown too big and now normies are spreading the word. Soon you have to suck it up and pay for crunchyroll. as for me, I buy anime blu rays
-
IzGreen_ 🇮🇪 your local 🦝 disappointment (@ThatGuyGreen_) reported@motjinx @KuroSekaiAnime **** no Of all places, definitely not Crunchyroll for all the terrible **** they do alongside all of the horrible localization that just ruins the anime
-
𐔌 ᛝ Oli .ᐟ 𐂯 (@stxrrys0ul) reportedIs this my sign to actually watch mha again even tho I don’t have a crunchyroll login anymore
-
[Hondunu] (@Hondunu) reported@SeehIsMe Crunchyroll will keep making the service WORSE for everyone. It has massive playback issues from what I've heard. I stopped using it when I found out that they lied about the money going DIRECTLY to the Japanese companies that hire those GREAT animators. It went to HGS.
-
Sabin Ghimire (@Saw_Bean223) reported@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.
-
Kevin penayo (@Kevinpenayo6) reported@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
-
Uriel_dArc_Angel (@Uriel_dArcAngel) reported@SeehIsMe If crunchyroll actually cared avout providing a quality service, I'd use it, but they don't so outside of the few shows who get a few seasons here or there licensed for apps that do actually work, I'm basically forced to sail the high seas to watch...
-
Death Cab For Kyubey (@KeikakuKat) reportedI 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.
-
Gujim13 (@Gujim13) reported@Crunchyroll @crunchyroll_la Help!!! I need help! I've been trying for 2 months to get an answer. I can't access my account, and I have the MEGA FAN plan!!!!;
-
MEME (@TICCOIN1b) reportedthe other day, our favorite anime websites is getting taken down. What if we get rid of the problem and take down Crunchyroll instead? think about it.
