Dexout (@Dexout_Official) reported@Crunchyroll Two full episodes behind on the dub I truly wish there was an alternative to your service. Nothing but issues getting episodes out regardless of what show it is.

-
sunday🫧 (@cheerupdks) reportedMy sis gave me her crunchyroll login we up
-
Royal_Stray (@StrayRoyal) reported@B_Rabbit843 If people want to use Crunchyroll that's perfectly fine obviously. However that doesn't mean that we should pretend there aren't any issues with it. It doesn't mean we shouldn't aim for a better standard or companies who genuinely care to deliver the best product possible.
-
Satomi The Red Fox (@theonlyredfox1) reportedPlease everybody cancel your crunchyroll subscriptions. We dont need @Crunchyroll and never have. The library is terrible the UI is terrible. And they don’t care for the customer
-
Gowrav Singh (@gs8553307) reported@Crunchyroll worst experience today! Bought a premium subscription, and the payment was not reflecting, when checked with the support team, they are casually asking to wait for 24 hours, really? That's ridiculous! I bought the subscription because I wanted to watch something now!
-
💫lavender🌙 (@pettyfuriosa) reported@vmohv Listen guys i watched through crunchyroll and i don’t understand the anime pacing issues people have because i would just fast forward 5 seconds if a frame held for too long or if they did a flashback again and that worked perfectly fine for me.
-
kelio (@Kelio420) reported@RockemmGG @AnimexTwts Thanks you for the new list , if there get shutdown or their servers get caught on fire within the next 24 hours, I’m going to say that I’m the problem and I will join the dark side and buy a crunchyroll subscription 🥲
-
Bones and Meat (@BonesinsideMeat) reported@Crunchyroll Hey if I sit down with my food to eat and watch T.V. I dont want to have to relog in because you guys can't protect your servers Literally unsubbing because you guys suck..
-
misfit marla (@misfitmarla) reportedhubby just asked if i can login to crunchyroll and allow 18+ content .......
-
Chris St.Germain (@KanekiSno_) reported@CTMT03K64 They don't steal Voice Actors considering they work with damn near every anime studio there is. Crunchyroll is used as their main hub and both studio & Crunchyroll work on the voice actor casting together. As for the selling ppl info there's still no proof about that. Just claims
-
Arden (@mrownersan) reported@B_Rabbit843 People let the internet formulate their opinions for them. Like who ******** actually cares about the crunchyroll anime of the year. Using that to start a hate campaign is ridiculous. I don't care for Solo Leveling but that doesnt mean the team didn't put in good work.
-
㊝Kakarotto㊝ (@SebastinPortals) reported@Bitsuda The Jin Woo vs Beru fight didn't break the internet, but it did crash Crunchyroll, which is saying something. This fight is like 10 times bigger than the Jin Woo vs Beru You may like Solo Leveling more or less, but one thing you can't deny is its popularity and impact.
-
Joe Salavics Jr (@Javics67) reported@Crunchyroll need some help - watching anime series and the app will not play the final episode. Delete & reload, clear cache, restarting the app, no changes... phone app, Windows PC, & Smart TV. Happened on 2 series so far. Apothecary Diaries and High School DXD. In Maryland
-
reactguides (@reactguides) reported@Sage2612 Awful communication to users from @Crunchyroll too. Quite a few people were caught in the middle of the season or intending to watch it. Warning some days/weeks beforehand, is something any other streaming platform does at least.
-
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.
-
Danny Masterton (@DanMaster94) reported@V4MPIR3__ @Crunchyroll "production issues" likely aren't on the side of the people doing the dub. if the episode itself comes in later than expected then it delays translation, which then delays having a script for the actors. sub can be on time because writing is quicker than recording/editing audio
-
pachimomo♕ (@xxldumbass_exe) reported@junosdeviI i deadass think the same + if a big *** company like crunchyroll is being seriously threatened by a piracy site bc of their range of content then that’s literally a skill issue💀😭
-
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.
-
Kalos Resident Seth Carnes (@seth_man) reportedSo I said this in response to what was happening with Animekai today as I thought Crunchyroll was taking it down, but apparently their servers are on literal fire and they lost everything. RIP to a great anime site for mobile users 🫡
-
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
-
Supparisarja (@supparisarja) reported@MLVLDec Where did you watch it? Its not on crunchyroll and the other sites dont work
-
Jon Carlos Hardwick (@JonHardwick98) reported@Darksergex @TemplarsRoar It’s the role he’s most known for and he’s made a **** ton of money off of it and he’s drawn long lines at conventions for it. Yes he did lots of stuff for 4Kids back in the day and he’s done other work for Funimation, Crunchyroll and NYAV Post but when people think of him they always point to Goku.
-
Crawl 🐶 (@asdcrawl) reportedA-cat should go down as the worst animation studio to ever be made and Crunchyroll should be ashamed of themselves for using them TBATE, the TBATE anime doesn’t exist! Please PLEASE go read the manga it’s fantastic don’t let the anime be how you know it
-
aasaa_ (@ArthurN37229758) reportedAnother reason why Crunchyroll is the worst anime streaming service
-
hi (@cannab1senjoyer) reported@Monke_Genius I hope crunchyroll has another massive data breach so people can finally stop using that God awful company
-
Re: Zero News by Ice (@rezero_ice) reported@DekuTier14598 If this is the case, and the same for all affected regions, Crunchyroll is having licensing issues with them mid-season. Which is just pure, ******* incompetence.
-
stubby (@stubbyfps) reportedpeople say this forgetting that crunchyroll took away comments, in 3 months you are paying their overpriced prices, ai generate subtitles (just gets them wrong at times), and has awful selection (Bleach nor Baki is on CR) Cost aside, crunchyroll sucks with crap selection.
-
Kenny (@agni_kenny) reported@Geo_AW I pay for the crunchyroll but still using alternative sites.... Website quality or the anime quantity is absolute sh*t..... No body like crunchyroll other than you
-
Mickey_32_bit (@MickeyStews25) reported@Geo_AW Your retarded ragebating doesn’t work here. I bet you don’t even use Crunchyroll to begin with.
