『piaatsey』 (@piaatsey) reported@Crunchyroll @Crunchyroll_de I LITERALLY PAID 4 TIMES FOR YOUR 3 MONTH SUBSCRIPTION PLAN, EVERY PAYMENT WENT THROUGH BUT YOU KICK ME EVERY 5 MINUTES? WHAT ******** IS YOUR PROBLEM BRO I JUST WANNA WATCH RE ZERO
-
Raizen❤💜💙🦭 (@Raizen1229) reported@Konbu_No_Mori I took a nen personality quiz on Crunchyroll a bit ago and I would apparently be a manipulator, after that I've been ruminating what I would do with that while at work
-
🔞 Pixel Sira 🔞 (Comms Open!) (@PixelSira) reported@ViolettBelle I'm watching it on Netflix! Crunchyroll doesn't work in Japan, haha
-
AlexTheGreat (@Mastergamer812) reported@snacks_fruity2 Honestly that sucks but it was also taken off other places too so probably licensing issues but that doesn’t mean Crunchyroll is dogshit. still one of the cheapest subscriptions out there and there‘s still so many shows on it but some of the complaints like ai subtitles are valid
-
manganime2025 (@manganime2025) reported@OtakuSpirited They pay the most for buying streaming licenses and they pay for production costs of many anime, judging from end credits(I can read Japanese). So, without Crunchyroll earning enough, anime industry can fade = lower quality + small number of anime. So, I support for Crunchyroll.

Melisa (@NguyenMelisa) reported@Jordan00007054 I would say to support all of the other booksellers that have those volumes in stock. Yes they are more expensive without the crunchyroll discount. But at least they are available elsewhere and you can support their businesses. The issue here is the availability of the Anime.
-
SpankySenpai (@Spanky_Senpai) reported@B_Rabbit843 Crunchyroll caused significant problems to both producers and viewers for years until they recently became slightly above ****. I’m assuming you don’t know that because you started watching in 2020, stay in your lane retard.
-
Luxi (@AExquisiteGamer) reported@Crunchyroll FIX YOUR XBOX CONSOLE SERVERS! THEY’VE BEEN DOWN SINCE THE LATEST UPDATE. MULTIPLE PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE! THANKS
-
Chidoki Collections (@ChidokiTV) reported@A1_Dandy I heard the original back in the ‘90s so I was shocked to see the song changed in Crunchyroll. But it is a licensing issue because it’s only licensed in Asia and not outside.
-
Matt (@Kedrael) reported@Crunchyroll Fix your @Xbox servers, it’s been 24 hours
-
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
-
Chris St.Germain (@KanekiSno_) reported@OneEyedSoloKing @AnimexTwts God you are stupid as ****. Crunchyroll is literally the most used platform right now for all the anime studios streaming platform. Crunchyroll is the main hub for anime studios to release their shows on. However it becomes an issue with licensing because of yall
-
Haremiel (@eggydoge) reportedCrunchyroll please fix your servers dawg I swear it is down degraded almost every week
-
Buttons (@buttonspony) reported@Crunchyroll - Can you please fix your damn website? You keep signing me out in the middle of a show. Idiots.
-
mensis 🍉 (@ohio_gooncel) reported@Crunchyroll your app on xbox has been broken for at least the past 12 hours
-
Bruce Bochy the Rock! (@aleril_a) reported@RoisinGalaxy It wasn't even the worst Crunchyroll Original show! (That was easily EX-ARM)
-
Quinten Lujan (@KingQLujan) reported@KuroSekaiAnime Genuine question, I like anime a lot. But I’m new as hell so I stuck it out with crunchyroll despite knowing how bad they suck. Where do people usually watch anime now that doesn’t cause problems?
-
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 !!
-
MaskTheta ✝ (@RealTankTheta) reported@animeposts I'm glad. Crunchyroll got too greedy and too intrusive with awful dubs, a clunky website and garbage projects funded that actively tried to poison the industry. They deserve this fall. Should of happened sooner tbh.
-
Zerift (@Zerift_1) reported@Crunchyroll gonna be real honest, I wish i could remove the manga and games from my subscription. They offer no value to me. Gotta admit ever since @Sony bought you lot, the service is getting lower in quality.
-
britt (@raikoben) reportedalso why is it available on prime with a crunchyroll subscription but it’s not on actual crunchyroll i’m going to crash out @Crunchyroll please fix this. either put cardcaptor sakura back on cr or let me link my existing cr sub to my amazon acct 😭
-
Jedi Joker (@stumpf_john) reported@Crunchyroll a glitch is happening, where the subs are popping up on a different episode. This has happened a few times. I tried closing the app and restarting it on my TV, but it still keeps happening. It’s the subs from a previous episode.
-
Jt 🦌 (0-0) 🐏 (0-0) (@lovebreaddd) reportedImagine using mid in 2026 couldn’t be me and if u actually defend Crunchyroll please bro block me ain’t no way u defending that ****** *** site and don’t say oh u broke? Im not if they were actually a good provider i probably would pay for it but no they aren’t they are awful
-
Kristen (@uahkristen) reportedAnyone else having issues with @Crunchyroll loading episodes in sub, but when you change to dub it loads fine? What the heck Crunchyroll…
-
Gamer_Gator (@_Gamer_Gator) reported@RealAF_Patriot Case & point: if Digital ID verification gets its way, & given the history of breaches like discord, crunchyroll, sony, etc. chances are it not only censors criticism of unethical actions by corrupt governance, but also entraps kids who do use Digital ID. ID theft is a problem.
-
Rush Dojima (Jeanne D'Arc Husband ❤️🖤) (@wdymyloveme) reported@ohio_gooncel @Crunchyroll I saw you twice today cus I have the same issue 😭
-
Moxy (@GottMoxy_) reported@chocoratto77 It's a shame, but there's the issue of the translators overseas (specifically the US/English dub) mistranslating in favor of pushing certain ideals (instead of being accurate to the source) or sites like Crunchyroll overcharging more and more on top of the insane amount of ads.
-
The Ezra Miller Stan Strikes Back again (@ItXddd) reported@piropoi The worst one by far was the Crunchyroll one, the idiots at the Company made her the ""girlfriend"" of their mascot, just as a way to get people supporting them despite being total frauds
-
EMP 🖤 (@BloodMagicSpell) reportedCrunchyroll been moving like King Von lately I'm not buying the whole "it's just a coincidence that AnimeKai servers burnt down" skit
-
michael b mcclain (@DJMM32Mcclain) reported@AniRave Well 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.
