Canti99 (@DotHacker12) reported@buddertroll1 @Chaoskiller2000 @Anime Semantics doesn't help you. Funimation wasn't like this. Its either Sony or Crunchyroll pulling the strings
-
gyroz (@gyroz333) reported@SWortenUwU @KaiAnitwt For every single anime that I and BILLIONS of others have already seen crunchyroll has ALWAYS been **** so **** to the point i didnt even know that lame *** app was even a pirated site aswell (at some point)… the WORST place to watch GOOD anime…. 🤮🥀

Mason L. (@Masonin8MM) reportedMan! Crunchyroll really said “we’re the worst thing to ever happen to anime in the west. Let’s keep that ball rolling!”
-
Gaming's Finest (@AGSTG6) reported@myretrolifeshow Want to **** with them and keep it? Disconnect from the internet. Its not just canceling PSN, but taking away your data from their servers makes them a less valuable company as user data is the big currency for corps. Cancel crunchyroll as well if you have that. Give them nothing
-
Gaming's Finest (@AGSTG6) reported**** @Sony Don't just cancel your PSN disconnect and take yourself off their network. Don't allow them to have your data. That will help bring down their value. Cancel your @Crunchyroll subscription too. Look at how they did Lt. Tsurumi himself @DavidWald_VA That is all
-
Deus ❅ (@MrJmoneyDeus) reportedDisney shouldn't have been allowed to buy Fox. Microsoft shouldn't have been allowed to buy Activision. Sony shouldn't have bought Bungie/Crunchyroll. Consolidation is terrible for consumers while upper management reap all benefits and all content of each didnt get any better.
-
🌙Sailor Suibian🪷 (@SailorSuibian) reported@ShopCrunchyroll @Crunchyroll As usual, you charge more for the shittiest service instead of fixing anything. Your customer service has been awful for years. I stopped buying from your store after several different shipments took months to ship after the release date. Oh and you lost one in your warehouse.

Jeffrey J. Hall 🇯🇵🇺🇸 (@mrjeffu) reportedChibi Reviews, an American influencer and apologist for the piracy of copyrighted Japanese animation, made a video calling me a "corporate bootlicker" because of my negative reaction to his posts defending a Vietnamese group that made over $12 million running an anime piracy site. Chibi Reviews described US government assistance to shut down such piracy websites as "insanity." We all know that piracy helped made anime and manga popular abroad decades ago (before people could pay for it), but the world is different today. Chibi Reviews also claimed that Dr. Stone artist @Boichi_Bo1 (Mu-jik Park) is also a piracy apologist, when in fact his posts clearly state that piracy is illegal. Cases where people live in poverty or countries without legal access to copyrighted works call for some leniency, but Boichi has referred to monetized manga piracy sites as a "criminal business." I agree that authorities shouldn't focus on poor people consuming content they can't afford or people living in countries with no possible way to legally consume anime/manga. However, many adults outside Japan who can absolutely afford to legally consume anime and manga pirate it while falsely claiming there is no "convenient" way to pay for it. Telling your viewers it's not terrible to pirate anime because you think Crunchyroll is bad will not change the way the Japanese anime industry approaches their overseas audience. They aren't going to bend to the whims of pro-piracy people. Like it or not, Japanese people, Japanese companies, and the Japanese government are not sympathetic to the continuation of the "piracy actually helps Japan" narrative, especially after the development of paid streaming services that make newly released anime readily accessible to most of the developed world.

CipherDood (@CipherDood) reported@Real_Kilometers That's just the worst thing ever; as if killing Rightstuf wasn't enough, they are basically killing their store now. Guess someone at Crunchyroll decided that the physical market isn't worth the time and money anymore…
-
Immortal_2023 (@Immortal_hxh) reported@Crunchyroll For those wondering, no, the 4kids dub is not on Crunchyroll and honestly? Thats for the best, because aside from the dub VA's, everything else done in the dub was just awful and people are better off seeing the uncensored sub version instead
-
Solomon Scrottle (@CorvusCav) reported@jacksettleman The big problem is it's on Apple TV. No amount of advertising is going to overcome that. might as well be on Crunchyroll.
-
m3rtkillzz (@skibididoert) reported@KaiAnitwt Holy **** these anime fans are retarded. Crunchyroll literall got bought by sony noone who was on the original crunchyroll dont work there. And its sony decision like how hard is it to understand?
-
stubby (@stubbyfps) reported@MarshPlaza @gen__wealth @AnimexTwts Issue is that media is hard to find or completely inaccessible. Like the winner of Crunchyroll 2026 romance anime isn’t even on Crunchyroll. You’d need both a Netflix and Crunchyroll sub and even those are missing a quarter of the content. There are a bunch of reason to pirate but that’s a massive one for millions of people worldwide. On top of region locks for media that you’d need a vpn subscription for to even watch. That’s now $50 a month for something you’ll never own. Even then, a Cr subscription is a lot of money for third world countries. This take pure privilege and inconsideration for anyone living in any other circumstance than your own.
-
Fries Guy (@Iam_best_dev) reported@KaiAnitwt also Crunchyroll is the worst streaming service that I know or as bad as Netflix. Their quality is bad, their audio is bad, their subtitles are terrible and overall pretty unprofessional. But they don't have any sort of encryption so pirates still love them lol
-
Schaeman (@Schaeman2021) reported@largehotcoffee No because somehow crunchyroll was the one that consumed funimation, despite funimation being the one that bought crunchyroll… so it looks less like funimation that was the problem and more crunchyroll, which regardless isn’t surprising because both are pretty awful…
-
Saku (@Sakuszczaw) reportedterrible day not to have a crunchyroll subscription
-
Asura🇿🇦 🕷️ (@mrmvffins) reported@c_toxic62895 The fact that Sony is the one who is mainly pushing for this all digital future and they're the ones who own Crunchyroll just proves why it's a terrible idea and why we need physical media
-
ZoidVHS🔞 (@ZoidVHS) reported@ChibiReviews Japan declared that they were going after piracy websites months ago and of course they're going to have the U.S to help them! I understand both sides of the situation but I do prefer to buy physical discs of anime that I enjoy. But at the same time it sucks that Crunchyroll is the only legal platform to stream new releases of anime in the west.

Dbzkcraigo (@craigs68) reported@ShopCrunchyroll @Crunchyroll This is awful
-
Chris @ Lumiose (@Tsukento) reportedHow is it Sony is able to making ******* awful decisions with both PlayStation and Crunchyroll?
-
Hariom Kale (@thehariomkale) reportedSony is entering the stablecoin race. Sony Bank has received conditional U.S. regulatory approval to launch Connectia Trust, a national trust bank that aims to issue a U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin by 2027. The token could power payments for PlayStation games, Crunchyroll, and other Sony digital services, with the goal of reducing transaction fees. However, many gamers are already raising concerns about digital lock-in and ownership of purchased content. Would you use a PlayStation stablecoin?

zoey♡ 🏳️⚧️aa 🤍 (@nagehan62261163) reported@Crunchyroll Ten years later and I'm still waiting for my psychic powers to finally work, but at least the feels are strong enough to levitate my couch.
-
Saint Tyrone 🍙🎮 (@SaintTyroneRSGG) reported@GhostofMimikyu The hilarious irony about Piracy = Virus spew is that most folks are radio silent about how Crunchyroll got one of the worst data breach this year. I'm talking stolen 8 million support tickets containing names, usernames, 6.8 million unique email addresses, IP addresses, & partial credit card info. It's remarkable. lol

Chara459 (c0mmissions open) (@Charamander459) reported@MangaAlerts Between Crunchyroll and Sony idk who makes the worst business decisions

the gadget guy on wheels 🏴♿️ (@GG_on_wheels) reported“Hey @Crunchyroll , really enjoying the shows but the app on my Fire TV Cube keeps logging me out all the time. Especially after hitting the home button or switching apps. I’ve cleared the cache/data and reinstalled but no dice. Any known fix for this? Thanks
-
ReifuTD (@ReifuTD) reported@ChibiReviews Crunchyroll used to be free with ads, I feel like ever since they changed it feel like the company been bleeding money and anime developers willing to work with them. And the Free with ads model works look at Tubi, great place for old anime and some of the newer stuff.

leni ♡ (@lenisadventure) reportedhmm for some reason tokyo ghould aint on crunchyroll and my pc mouse is broken so now imma watch Spiritpact whatever that is cuz i said so
-
Casko (@CaskoReal) reportedThe cringey crunchyroll hype show before the mob psycho panel really solidified my disdain for how corpo ax has become it was so awful
-
👑🇵🇸🇨🇩The Fallen King of Fanfiction🇳🇵🇸🇩👑 (@_TFKOF) reported@LuffyVL_56 @/ascinhiding “Crunchyroll” it’ll help clap back. Also when the article made by that one guy comes up, and they use that he’s an OP fan, tell them that journalism requires higher ups for approval, therefore Crunchyroll agrees that on+

Chris (Sonic101YT)🦔🇺🇸 (@Braindeadfellow) reportedIt doesnt help that crunchyroll, the inly legal anime centered streaming services only carry is one of the worst things mankind has ever created.
