bored by this nonsense (@god_damn_1t) reported@kanonchu00 @AyakaMods Its like Netflix but anime, but it jacks up prices, had ads, and maliciously ***** up translation and dubs and so many other thing wrong with the company. you get a better quality overall just going to a pirates site then crunchyroll
-
Noodle (@iloveNoodlez) reported@Crunchyroll The way the link was embedded in the email could've been better. On Android no issues the link opened Ticketmaster but on Apple - it kept opening the Crunchyroll app for my friend so he had a hard time getting around that to buy tickets. Even though he got an email + code lol

Webbster64 (@webbster64) reported@p9cker_girl and yes these are just a few examples of @Funimation aka @Crunchyroll sloppy work,

Verratus_Dominatu โ๏ธ๐๐ (@Verratus_Speaks) reported@animetrends Also secondary point I just realized. People used to consume products like this all the time for free on TV. Anime doesn't typically air, especially not super commonly in the US on any particular TV channel, or other free service. The closest is Crunchyroll for a paid subscription, but they suck for a dozen different reasons. Maybe stop bitching about the pirates and go ***** about Crunchyroll, Netflix and other streaming services and their God awful business practices that drive people towards piracy instead of legitimate consumption Through a convenient and well priced service. Or you can go to war with pirates, which you have no way of ever actually stopping in. Will only serve to upset your fan base, and also, if anything, make you either more hated, less popular, or make less money from people who otherwise would have given it to you. You can try that strategy too. It's an interesting one. We'll see how it works out. Historically? not well.

Chimurry Al (@Chimurry_Al) reported@sudotadashi @Crunchyroll The fans itself is trying to use licensed anime or merch, many don't like groups selling or charging fees, but somehow the Companies just don't get the message or the idea, they need to evolve, otherwise keep losing and unfortunately, the creators get the worst

Kibble =^.^= (@Next_Jen) reportedCrunchyroll having mad sync issues lately.

Drag๐ฉ๐ช๐ฎ๐ฑ๐บ๐ฆ (@Drag007_) reported@GyaruGlow A website without data issues please. Crunchyroll has most anime on the market but it sucks ;-; Steals and sells data, data breaches, censorship etc ;-;

๐ซ๐ฆ๐ ๐ฌ (@moritetakayan) reported@Crunchyroll if someone has an extra presale code PLS help
-
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.

็ฌ (@NotNikSmh) reported@bruhmomentgg27 crunchyroll does less than the minimum amount of work ๐ญ๐ญ its so ****** that people get confused when watching their subs

nini๐เฑจเง (@ddreamrlly) reportedif any of you fw me fr you would give me your crunchyroll login details so i can rewatch aot

Chinonyerem-Senpai (@Chi_Chinonyerem) reported@anaero_chukwudi @jewels_uduehi Fair enough, let go pay for Crunchyroll subscription then. I just wanna support their work man
-
Suvikyi (@suvikyi) reportedI used to volunteer as a timer for fansub groups, back before Crunchyroll got big. I was one of those pirates that helped anime which did not have an official translation or license overseas find fans. I despise these people. These people who cannot respect cultural differences, who think the world should bow to their own views, who loudly proclaim indecency while being indecent people themselves. I have a strong detest for these people. I sometimes look back now and think that it wasn't worth it. Why did we put in all of that work only to have those efforts turn into something where Japanese creators are attacked by the people here? It's depressing.
-
SUPER7X (@_SUPER7X) reported@ryuseihashida HIDIVE localielizes things when they feel like it just like Crunchyroll, so you can only wait and see. Could be fine, could be terrible.
-
viperion (@viperio76050352) reported@NAFCA_official I do what I can by buying manga and dvd's of anime when I can, but when it comes to those "legitimate channels," a lot of work is needed. Crunchyroll is a terrible service and not worth paying. I hope to see good services in the future that are actually worth paying.
-
ImperialStoic (@ImperialStoic) reported@zt5019576939774 I agree. It is morally wrong to pirate. I do wish there was a better way to do it, but overseas partners like Crunchyroll have a lot of control. I wish anime creators to be well paid, and for overseas fans to enjoy their work too.
-
Jonathan Saint Fong (@thegreatestjc) reported@Dexerto Tbh. It is what it is. I would just be happy if people enjoyed my work regardless. I'll still make money. Look at what crunchyroll is charging their users.....who's gonna stay loyal for long? Probably not a lot of people.
-
Winterclaw42 (@winterclaw42) reported@rcharios2 I think part of the problem is western distributors aren't selling things. I'd love to buy anime DVDs but they aren't being made as much anymore. It's mainly streaming and crunchyroll is bad and changes stuff.
-
boogey (@bogusofthedeep) reported@Fred1532556133 @meinyaaaaaaaa @p9cker_girl brother, what is your agenda? do you get paid by crunchyroll, or do you just think it's a trivial issue to provide a subpar product?
-
Rustle (@teahorses) reported@nanasamib The distribution options for Americans support terrible companies like Crunchyroll who deserve death.
-
ๆฐธ้ ใฎ่ณ็ฆ (@ieatoldfood) reported@Crunchyroll fix your app Error code 6 5 and 2
-
Yura ใGozyu Styraใ***** (@Ecchi_Zombie) reported@SirZombieCrocs ๐doubt it. TADC/Glitch actively talk to the theatres and made the call to action by telling their fans to try emailing them.... Crunchyroll probably just dumped it to theatres and didnt care about how long they would keep it there.
-
Justis Hicks (@HicksJustis) reported@animeupdates Im preachin to the quire, I know we know this and corporate dont. Its just so amazing that thry try to find ways to fix this with"experts"when all it is atleast for crunchyroll, bring back comment section,be serious in preserving anime and not removing them,better translatlations
-
Raine // Mimileaks (@RealMimileaks) reported@kiyuri_P I think Funimation being dissolved into Crunchyroll doesn't help either with the dub situation. Because it vanished shortly after that. I think Niji Season 2 was the only thing to happen afterwards.
-
Miros (@Miros_Amon) reported@MadamLaconic @MadamSavvy "rest of your point doesn't matter" it absolutely does. the complaint is Crunchyroll treating SUBS like dubs by removing honorifics that defeats the purpose of having subs vs dubs as separate options you're deflecting from the actual issue
-
๐๐ฅ๐ (@CuentaRandom999) reported@PiiNyan2 @AmiPik1118 The majority of gundam on Crunchyroll has them, I heard it was something with licensing issues with the artist but at least for me that sounds stupid, why subtitling a song would have licensing issues, if it's true please tell me
-
Ranra0211486 (@Ranra0211486) reported@CrossFMP @VOLCHITO_ Yeah I'd never tell a manga artist I pirated their work. It's not shame. Moreso that there is no happy outcome from saying that. You know stuff like Crunchyroll, very little money goes to voice actors or animators? Pretty sure same goes for VIZ, publishers get the money.
-
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
-
SHINIKAZE (@kazeshini_69_) reported@RX_9999_2 In my opinion, piracy is mostly a service & pricing issue. Outside of Japan, anime/manga aren't easily accessible, you'd need to have multiple subscriptions to really consume more anime/manga. Sites like Netflix wont even have every season of a show too. Even crunchyroll don't-

TexasBreadstick (@nylaporp) reported@its_hipolita Crunchyroll has this same exact problem for some reason, itโs really annoying especially because the subtitles for dub are just wrong a lot of the times
