@AniRave I honestly don't get why people pay for Crunchyroll as its always been a dogshit service. Website is terrible, App is worse, overpriced especially now with less features, subtitles done by people who hate anime, they used money on their own shite animated series etc etc

@AG64_RX Same. Hard to believe Mike McFarland was one of the very first VAs at funimation and continued to work even after funimation merged with Crunchyroll until last year. The very first English dub from funimation was dragon ball: sleeping princess from Devil’s Castle.

@Crunchyroll your app update today bricked the app, not a good look to increase prices and then release app updates that make it unusable and then the only form of support is chat agents that copy/paste the support steps.

Say what you want about the quality of FunimationNow, but not once in the 5 years I was subscribed did they ever increase my rates. Crunchyroll has now done that THRICE since I transferred. I love having less options 😒

REALLY bold of Crunchyroll to charge $2 extra a month for garbage captions that don't work among other issues with how the company is run.

@ChibiReviews If anyone is the real pirate it’s Crunchyroll. You want people pay for **** service when we can get better service for free. Piracy is not a morale issue, it’s a service issue.

@animeupdates @Crunchyroll SCREW YOU! I just literally got this so I could watch some anime on the go. Well, not if you raise the crap price! Maybe if you weren't a **** platform that's trying to be a second-rate Netflix, you wouldn't have money issues! You don't even allow picture-in-picture!

I agree with the Denpa criticism although from what I've been told about one of their titles, it's not their fault at all. The other titles, yeah. It's the printing that's the problem, from what I've gathered I don't really agree with Crunchyroll being important to ->

@thierryntoh23 @themajor88 @animeupdates But having a sub would only help the titles I like a little because crunchyroll distributes the money I pay them to many various animes (idc bout most) and then they only recieve a little of their total profits from crunchyroll. Should I just buy merch for my fav titles instead

@AnimeDailyRepz A METI report estimates that online piracy alone caused ¥5.7 trillion ($37–38B) in damage in 2025 or lost 0 and they cause the problem, piracy solves the problem these companies create or never fixed still.. like Crunchyroll creating pirates

@regularaugust Doesn’t help that @ToeiAnimation just posts clips of their mecha anime here and on Insta that aren’t even on crunchyroll. I ain’t trying to watch that on Apple or Amazon prime either bro. I remember they posted a clip of Getter Robo 1974 as if there’s any legal way to watch it.

@grof142007 @Crunchyroll In the end its just them trying to get more money to help with server cost and licensing an anime

@ShopCrunchyroll --reason I should have to wait for an order to encounter a processing issue to change my payment method. With Rightstuf the customer service could update them all in about five seconds, but Crunchyroll customer service is also unreachable and unhelpful. I could go on and on, but-

@AprileAttilio @Zerodaim @iamwilsxn Removal of community tools like comments, inconsistent quality checks like with the recent jjk, added preroll animation that are essentially a 5 second ad for Crunchyroll, the service I pay for already, and funds the CR Store that has a league of issues on its own. Sony will live

@Pirat_Nation Crunchyroll has worse subtitles and audio quality than most pirate sites. Until they fix that I’m never paying for it again

@ItsMeBenChan @iamrollandex Bro they the ones cheating. CrunchyRoll used to be free for everything. Then they started charging. Then they keep raising prices while offering nothing additional & worse quality.

@Crunchyroll basic plan going from $8/mo to $10/mo. That's a 25% increase. I wouldn't mind it so much if the quality of their services and products had been improved by 25%. Instead we get more late releases, incorrect episode subtitles, activist localizers, and other problems

@Crunchyroll Expect a TON of cancellations including mine after an email announcing the huge price hike. People are massively pissed on reddit. We are OVER it. $$$ reduced subtitle quality poor customer service low res/bitrate removal of free ad supported shows unstable app

@iamwilsxn Not only that, but let's say everybody succeeds in killing off crunchyroll by pirating anime. We're gonna rely on fan subs. Okay, that was common in the past. No more official dubs. Putting actors out of work. Thousands of employees four of these companies.

@zoezoezoee Im not bragging about anything though? I just stated a fact to show that there is worth in me being verified since your comparison made no sense And my point has nothing at all to do with Crunchyroll being too expensive. The entire point is that what you gain from those $10 is worse than what you could easily obtain for free elsewhere. If you are spending money for a worse service, I think thats incredibly dumb since you can experience better quality without doing so
