Crunchyroll Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
strajk- (@strajk_) reported@XperiARM @andipyon How do I pay the creator if the publisher won't sell it to me? Piracy is a service issue, look at Crunchyroll, Mangadex, Netflix and Steam, thanks to those platforms piracy has decreased, Crunchyroll and Mangadex in particular were initially pirate websites that became commercial
-
Marcin Chojnacki (@Zankierka) reported@TheFanaticLive @kirawontmiss I was paying customer of Crunchyroll - but what is the point of paying for it if I can't watch shows I want to see? Sure similar issue is with other providers... But some shows can't be found at all on any provider at the moment...
-
G_PHA18 (@G_pha108) reported@p9cker_girl This is why, I never watch Crunchyroll again. trying to watch some good anime. But people like this is why we have problem like this. Also, they don’t even have any of the older anime. Man, I remember my good experiences for watching Anime in my 20 year age back in the 2000s.
-
Bob Mcblob 🎀🍫🔪 (@bob_mcblob) reported@IceGamer495 @JanchoRZ @Crunchyroll EP1 had an error that was known and called out MONTHS in advance. And they somehow did not fix it. That being Anastasia saying city instead of country. Not to mention every single episode in s3 having errors. Going one episode without errors is the bare minimum.
-
Gust (@thisgust_) reported@Crunchyroll bring back the manual quality settings i'd rather watch a constant 1080p with some buffering than a pixelated mess that keeps going
-
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
-
Selphares (@Selphares1) reported@SilentHxH @yamanakanobody @JustAniceCat It is no lie crunchyroll does a horrible job and pays its people awful.
-
Lionel (@LIONELEP1) reported@Catherine_Duan No seems like everywhere is saying the same issue. I think crunchyroll ****** up….
-
Frieren Mensageira da Opressão (@FrierenOpresora) reported@origuchi123 @AdmantASC @isawmydevil Platforms like Crunchyroll already exist, but THERE’S ANOTHER PROBLEM!!! The Japanese industry, and, with all due respect, a good portion of the population as well, just look at the aggressive comment, seems to care only about the money.
-
Stark (@1024adomin) reported@pEPgbD5YTx11090 @AratisIs @VeteranAnon I pay for Crunchyroll and the service is terrible. They steal user data every week, the subtitles are AI-generated, and I still haven't been able to watch the older anime I want because Crunchyroll refuses to add them. What can I do to watch them legally?
-
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.
-
The Goat (@Ec_supreme) reported@Horrormovie317 @status_is_down Delete Crunchyroll then redownload it I had the same issue as you on my iPhone so I deleted it and reinstalled it and now it works perfectly fine I told someone else to delete it and reinstall it and it worked for them
-
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.
-
bingoze (@bingoze_) reported@SeehIsMe i would have no problem paying for crunchyroll or whatever other service if they werent just abysmal. the websites have more shows in better quality with better subs, just overall a better experience. make the paid services worth paying for and ill pay
-
roy || #TENOÍ (@shougaze_) reported@Crunchyroll @aniplex_info look at the money you are missing out on by not dropping the movie digitally you got insane fans who are gobbling up the ****** leaked version with that terrible bitrate and all y'all are doing is nothing wake up, drop the #infinitycastleondigital
-
YaNATO (@RomNace) reported@Tomoejp1236 I think that, with some initial support from the government while the service is in its infancy, an “Anime Steam” could be profitable very soon. The real problem I see is the licensing of the anime. (You can’t have the Netflix and Crunchyroll stealing the deals).
-
Leminala 🇯🇵 (@leminala) reported@animeheadsretro Crunchyroll buying rightstuff really has been one of the absolute worst things to happen to the industry
-
ayydinn (@ayydinnobs) reported@yamanakanobody streaming service with better catalogue and subs than Crunchyroll would work or a steam like to buy/rent movies tho I doubt renting each anime episode would work
-
ito🎸 (@ilikelatinas02) reportedsome of you weirdos dont understand that wed be using crunchyroll if it actually had a good list of animes. its like every other anime isnt on there. netflix and other streaming services arent better. the licensing issues & missing seasons are so annoying.
-
Kevin penayo (@Kevinpenayo6) reported@fool44922022 @Mashiro_yuh Subtitles aren't that hard to make and they are normally paid pennies for that kind of work. You have a ton of translators who are willing to do the job profesionally. Netflix figured out subs years ago. Or crunchyroll which was before a pirate website
-
Fafthriech (@fafthriech80117) reported@Thomaskliptoman @C11_Hallo_World @yamanakanobody Their competition is crunchyroll who never does maintenance on their servers and never upgrades them so it shouldn't be hard other than dealing with insane japanese laws.
-
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
-
Víctor Gálvez (@Ishidakunnin) reported@yamanakanobody I'd pay in a heartbeat. In my country the only oficial anime site is Crunchyroll and it's awful
-
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.
-
Turtle Island (@TurtleI86650749) reported@Audbih @AnimexTwts Crunchyroll anime is broken for some episodes you literally have no choice but to go off platform for a service that should be complete. **** subscriptions and the monopolies they hold on the people
-
Potte (@pottetan) reported@Crunchyroll we had to scramble and ask for someone to send their link. Hopefully that does not give issues to our tickets because of your incompetence in forgetting such an important part of the presale process. Many people used links from Reddit.
-
ForgeThought (@Forge_Thought) reported@yamanakanobody The problem is this. I watched "Sweetness and Lightning" with my wife years ago. Loved it. Now I want to watch it again, it's not available anywhere. Crunchyroll refused to renew its license. So its not on streaming services. I went to buy the DVD/Blu Ray. But this happens a lot.
-
Alexander (@Hassaibi82599) reported@p9cker_girl Imagine paying for Crunchyroll, they were a piracy site first, the worst of the worst. Anime fansubbing was done by groups of people working tirelessly on bringing out episodes for everyone, and they would just remove the credits and add their own.
-
Kyle (@Kylurum) reported@yamanakanobody I pretty much only do it if its an anime thats exclusive to netflix. Cus netflix is way to expensive for a streaming service and im not getting Netflix just for anime cus Crunchyroll is better for that in pretty much everyway possible. Hidive is the worst but its also very cheap
-
Sean Burke (@SeanBurke644006) reported@tengudosyobo I think the issue ppl can be asking with Crunchyroll and official liciences why hasnt the money gotten better to creators, animators or vas. For example one of the voice actors for demon slayers only got 145 dollars for the first film
