-
Kevin Pascarella (@silverkevin17) reported@ConnerAllisonVA @Crunchyroll @KinglyRed Brilliant job this week. I’m really liking how even when he’s in downer mode I can tell how hard Tamon is trying. Like when he tried to defuse the situation between Utage and Ouri. Plus you continue to make his negative spirals hilarious to hear. Great work.
-
Smalls (@AnglisGreenleaf) reported@KuroSekaiAnime Thats one branch but Crunchyroll profitability is higher than ever as subs eclipsed 21 million. Its gotten so big they've had to upgrade servers and they spend more than ever so yeah short term profits might be low but that is temporary
-
Ricardo Torres (@rtorres_brz) reported@crtosko @KuroSekaiAnime I can guarantee they enforce the max. devices policy because three days ago I got a glitch on my Chrome browser and Crunchyroll started to block me saying I was trying to use more than one device.
-
JeenWeen (@Jorphe1979) reportedAnybody know how to fix Plex not grabbing subtitles on iOS? I can usually download (crunchyroll ew) them per episode, but I would like to use the (fan translated) subtitles that came with the files I have. my assumption is it’s a transcoding issue and I might just need to switch to jellyfin or something
-
𝔢𝔴𝔬 (@ewo999) reported@Crunchyroll Yall going fix your app on the Xbox I literally can’t open it without it saying some dumb shi
-
Potential (@BestBoievar) reported@rezero_ice That's ******* awful and completely unnecessary. Is there a fan translation out there? I already know what happens in Arc 6 but it seems all the sites are using Crunchyroll subs.
-
(8/100) seibaa.bsky.social (@SeibaaHomu) reported@BigEvilCamillo We have Sugoico which is where a lot of the people who got fired from Crunchyroll work at. Unfortunately now is probably an incredibly bad time to launch a physical media company so I doubt we'll get much else
-
baldnews (@Baldnewsnetwork) reported@Malikrevs @AnimeSpotlightt Another apology - I’m good you don’t have to keep apologizing you were wrong we both agree on this and it’s okay for you to be wrong. We know the you work for Crunchyroll you admitted it so no problem 🏆
-
Jason Lee (@JasonLe02433378) reported@Crunchyroll you app on Roku really ****** Sucks !! it does not work correctly at all and lags out and freezes up and can't select episodes on some of the Anime series !! and half you anime crap does not even have English Dub and 90% of English people don't do Subtitles !!
-
Jakegotti (@de91779602) reported@Crunchyroll This is the worst anime ever the person who drew this you’re disgusting in the second episode this man rapes him just to find out that you can heal him normally just fine and you have kids watching this ****. He took his **** without consent, again you’re disgusting.
-
💜The Virtual Celebrity💜 (@Official_TVC) reported@Skullsforu That's why I put indie in quotes. They still premiered under a company and had financial backing. But if I remember correctly they also had a shoe string budget, ran the show independently, and Crunchyroll at the time was like current day Glitch Productions. Big but not big boys.
-
Macadav (@DavidDa00361728) reported@THe0GAmer @animeupdates I agree that the frieren loss was questionable, but crunchyroll preferring hype over quality is not entirely true, because if that were the case then MHA S2 would’ve won in 2018, but it didn’t
-
DiabolicDuke (@Diabolic_Duke) reported@0takusociety Doesn't help that 98% of the Isekai category on crunchyroll is just copy and paste garbage. There is only like 3-4 decent alternatives in the whole library of isekai.
-
Michelle (@michelle_tan101) reported@NicoleMarg51114 If there’s one thing I’m glad on is they at least will try and fix things when enough attention has been thrown at them on it. But I honestly still think Crunchyroll has always been taking on too many things at once to the point they can’t do a good job at all of them
-
Nick Cunningham (@Sergeanta7xlive) reportedWhy is crunchyroll broken on Xbox?
-
Miyazaki Kiyomi (@MiyazakixKiyomi) reportedBig question for you @Crunchyroll can I please know why the warrior Princess and the barbaric King English audio is coming out in Japanese no matter how much I refresh select back-and-forth logout log back in. It’s not in English. Can you help a girl out?
-
michael b mcclain (@DJMM32Mcclain) reportedWell to speak truthfully Crunchyroll has two major problems. One: Crunchyroll should have known their high numbers was only temporary 2020 wasn't going to last forever. Two: they made more bad mistakes than good especially when it comes to people's personal data.
-
Theleux 🧊 (@Theleux_) reportedThat's gotta be the worst Crunchyroll Anime Awards yet.
-
Ryan Sciog (@squishy11114) reported@Crunchyroll you know it would be great if you could make some kind of announcement about the issues currently affecting your platform. The @XBOX app has been down for a week with zero public acknowledgement.
-
Lukas (@lukas_ngrl) reported@TMarino302 @KuroSekaiAnime Hard work is what the fansub does, they work for free and have a quality so superior to crunchyroll that the company should be ashamed.
-
Travon L (@middlenameDon) reported@RDCworld1 @TheAnimeAwards @Crunchyroll These are some of the worst candidates for BAOTY ive seen I think
-
rachel (@shmudkip) reported@LimboTheLost @LoonaINK + crunchyroll’s subs make some lines from the manga (especially richeh’s line about how she hates adults who treat children like things) sound incredibly clunky and unnatural :( the dub stays much closer to the manga in that regard (crunchyroll sub issue but still)
-
ash (@witchrivs) reportedcrunchyroll anime awards has got to be the worst anime awards out there… in what world does chainsaw man not win film of the year
-
Psycho Mantis (@MarkSparks718) reported@LisTham_ @hulu Just looked it up and a bunch of other people had this same issue lol. You either have to continue watching it on Crunchyroll because Hulu got rid of it. Or it’s a system error. Most likely the former
-
Dman (@DmanUnt2014) reportedI really need to work on growing a brand, man. What do mean there's an #ad for Lego Batman? Crunchyroll Partner? Now hold on. 😭 I'm going to get to it this summer, man.
-
Yassin 105 FM (@Midnight_Dasher) reported@thysss50227967 It really doesn’t need that much homework. Just the first movie and maybe CCA. Which is actually part of the problem from how licensing deals make it impossible to do any homework. Hathaway 1 is on Netflix but CCA is on crunchyroll. Physical media is also out of print.
-
mensis 🍉 (@ohio_gooncel) reported@Crunchyroll your console peons have been without service since Monday of this week. Please fix soon...
-
Jancho (@JanchoRZ) reportedGENUINELY ONE OF THE WORST MISTRANSLATIONS BY @Crunchyroll EVER BECAUSE IT IMPLIES THE LITERAL OPPOSITE OF SUBARU’S THOUGHTS. #FixTheSubs
-
Rokan (@_Rokan__) reported@Crunchyroll Bro fix youbshit on xbox

Danchou’s Hideout | MSG U.C Rewatch (@WeeklyOrochi) reported@scratchthatout you can tell who is stuck on iseaki and shonen very easily. crunchyroll is the problem
