Crunchyroll Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Titanism (@Titanism69) reported@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.
-
🌸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 they were interested in the work or not, deeply incurious and opiated generation raised on instant streaming gratification
-
L_Adz (@L_Adz786) reported@TylaferPage @AnimexTwts Crunchyroll is crap. They don't have many many series. There's back log of anime that span older then crunchyroll existence. If it ACC had the library then maybe it would be alright. Their quality control is doodoo
-
Rexxy (@RexxyPlus) reported@yamanakanobody I have a few shows where I've pirated them just to get a good fan translation that is faithful to the original intentions of the work. I will absolutely pirate an anime if my only other option is paying Crunchyroll or Netflix or something like that.
-
Chimurry Al (@Chimurry_Al) reported@sudotadashi Partially wrong, IE: @Crunchyroll did use many fansubs helping lowering costs and time, they approached the issue were many had failed, they didn't fight the fans, they used a long ever standing position "fans to fans", meaning: no lucrative from the groups doing the translation
-
DyrianAr (@CraftPhinox) reported@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.
-
Yuuki Shio 🏳️⚧️ (@YuukiArikawa) reported@Khirassj @CharmandAznable I'd rather pay for a flight to Japan than use Crunchyroll. If watching anime legally really helps, support other platforms, not the Star or UNESCO monopoly. That's preferable to having to endure the worst dubbing in history.
-
Jielhar (@Tozrok) reported@yamanakanobody As Gabe Newell from Valve put it, "piracy is almost always a service problem". Gamers largely buy their videogames from Steam because it's legal and convenient, and many paid for their anime on Crunchyroll when it was a good service. Without a good legal option, we turn to piracy
-
𝓦𝓮𝓷𝓭𝔂 "Mercy Manic" (@MercyMacabre) reported@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.
-
Miros (@Miros_Amon) reported@minamonomomiji @kutsuzawa55 Buying legally outside Japan is a mess Sites like Crunchyroll don't pay jp creators fairly, censor content, and have translations so bad even basic Japanese speakers spot the errors For manga is even worse, legal sources have the same issues as above plus they're months behind
-
CyanBH 【Vtuber】 (@Cyan_with_a_bh) reported@NCyotee Crunchyroll was a pirate site. A third party. With established capability to host anime. Struck a deal and became legal with the help of publishing gients. You are either downplaying how it became legal or missing the point that making something up in your mind.
-
Cyphre (@DireCyphre) reported@yamanakanobody We already do. The problem now is those companies taking charge (Crunchyroll for example) are also bad at their job. If they somehow got a hold on more properties, it would be worse than it is now.
-
MAF (@95Fayaz) reported@oruyu_dxrk @ZealousSeraphim It depends. I watch anime on my PC. PC has no native Crunchyroll app so I have to use the web app. And this is a well known problem on web app.
-
restarzzoficial (@restarzzoficial) reported@KEI_URANA In your case you are "lucky" because your work is good and you have gotten an anime that has been published by crunchyroll globally, which has allowed many people to buy your work because they liked it, not everyone has that global publicity.
-
Sertesh Sardrakal (@sertesh) reported@kazakura_22 Your best bet is to cut off overseas distribution and run overseas distribution through domestic distributors preferably like a hybrid of steam and crunchyroll. As long as they avoid the problems plaguing crunchyroll. Piracy would decline.
-
malucolele (@malucolele41219) reported@shoindokazui @wildwilly888 Im just saying that this aproach will never stop piracy...Since official streamings like Crunchyroll became a thing, piracy for anime or even western shows dropped by a lot. Piracy at its core is and always will be a service problem not an economic one.
-
Handsome_t0x (@t0xicc0ma) reported@SeehIsMe So i was in a hotel for the last week. And their wifi wouldnt let me use my typical anime streaming site. So i used the free trial for crunchyroll. WORST EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE!! Never again will i use crunchyroll.
-
Sleeping Dalmatian (@RSchiltJr) reported@PrimeVideo @Crunchyroll why don't I have access to the new season of Re:Zero through my membership? I am very confused. Please help.
-
Quinn (@InputVoid) reported@yamanakanobody There’s an extra problem for us. Our anime licensing is so split up that to watch everything you want, you’d be paying close to $50 a month to have access to every service. That’s Netflix, Hidive, Crunchyroll, Ocean Veil, and Prime Video. And that’s only if they get licensed…
-
Legion (@WeAreLegion86) reported@Chimurry_Al @threenotes_jp Right. But if Crunchyroll were smart, they could act as a central "hub" for pirate sites, instead of trying to fight it. I know it's probably more complex than that, but it'd solve the quality/library issues in my mind.
-
I hate you all (@SLupine6818) reportedCrunchyroll needs to be broken up like wtf..
-
StableSalto (@SaltoStable) reported@DemoKnight422 @Crunchyroll Clear your app’s cache or uninstall and reinstall (if you are on iPhone) I had this issue show up today, uninstalled and reinstalled and it works now.
-
bunies (@buniesinfernal) reported@yamanakanobody long as the quality was good and it was not monopolized by one source everyone hates like crunchyroll then then yes most people would pay
-
𝖀𝖑𝖖𝖚𝖎𝖔𝖗𝖗𝖆 ☥ (@ulquiorrajr) reportedThey can take down all the anime sites, but I can tell you I will never pay for an anime-based subscription again, especially Crunchyroll. That **** is awful.
-
Gluttony (@Glluttonous) reported@Crunchyroll day 147 of telling @Crunchyroll to stick with aegisub instead of ooona stop using ai to translate your animes fix the translation errors in sub and dub for rezero season 3 and season 4 #FixTheSubs
-
Ice❄️ (@IceGamer495) reported@JanchoRZ @Crunchyroll They been notice that they gonna fix it
-
Dakota (@Cooltreeman) reported@yamanakanobody Sure. I don't have a problem paying the creator of a product to enjoy what they made. However, I won't pay to have media altered for policial views, content I've paid for taken from me, security breaches, and more just to enjoy SOME content on places like Crunchyroll
-
Holdenthebuilder (@Holdenthebuild3) reported@CowMFM @silliestsiffrin You choose to continue to give money for an inferior product that costs more. It's funny how sites like crunchyroll has worst security for their paying customers than piracy sites do for people who use them for free.
-
Leungfish (@GLeungfish) reported@InfamousLooney @Crunchyroll Same issue here!!
-
Ice❄️ (@IceGamer495) reported@bob_mcblob @JanchoRZ @Crunchyroll What we got from someone on the production team they will fix anything for future episodes before airing but we don’t know if they ever gonna fix ep 1 ever also season 3 errors were fixed in dub
