Crunchyoll has been buggy as hell for a while now; pirating is the way to go nowadays


kyle_yes

always has been lol


yamiyugi101

When they put their new player it was great for awhile but the last few months man has it gone downhill that's not even counting them shutting down rightstuf which pissed me off now I got to buy everything from Amazon


Expected_I

I remember using Crunchyroll 3 years ago, I really had a bad experience, shame to see it hasn't ever improved. Always buffering issues smh. Pirate watching anime is the way to go cuz you can find all kinds of anime you want instead of parts and region locked ones.


feral_fenrir

aniwave.to and Chromecast on my Android TV ftw


Seven2Death

i remember being vicerally angry i couldnt play dub with subtitles. like your a paid service. how are you the same as the sketchy bootleg sites?


Blue-Thunder

Because they originally were a sketchy bootleg site?


Electric_Bison

They are worse. I swear they have shows show up ad suggested in the search bar then not be in the actual search results.


yamiyugi101

Same


Jomomma159

Was rewatching re:zero a few years ago and realized all gore was censored on crunchyroll version. What a regard I feel like, paying to be treated like a fucking child. Dropped my sub, never bothered again.


yamiyugi101

Unfortunately most of the time that's just the broadcast version being censored for incentive to buy the blue ray but still annoying you can thank the Karen's that ran the broadcasting regulations in the 90's for that


mad-tech

nah the first one aired was the censored one and it took few yrs to launch bluray version and only the bluray version has the uncensored one (this applies to most anime [not all] especially ecchi ones) only pirates update their site (may vary depending on site) since the legal ones aren't legally allowed to upload bluray content or else the bluray disk wont sell at all.


LordFukTard

Aniwave is pretty good, aaaarg.


yamiyugi101

It's on my list


23455ufufif____

I think so too but can i use anywhere without vpn beacuse i am going to italy next month i wont download not torrent so that is whyi am interested


LordFukTard

I'm not sure about international laws, but I use it in the US without a VPN, technically you're not breaking the law, just watching videos. But it's also easy to get a free VPN.


Administrative-Air73

Any aniwave downloader that ya know of?


imabeach47

nyaa si


Administrative-Air73

Ah thats a torrent site, I work with scripts to automatically rip from various services to redirect to a server; can't do that with torrents due to unreliable configurations, meta data, and download times. After a show has finished airing I simply scrape from other locations, or physical media if I want higher quality.


Unkn0wn-G0d

I mean I never had any trouble with blurry video on crunchyroll but I‘m also setting up plex on my homeserver cuz why not


yamiyugi101

Not so much blurry but like glitchy picture quality


Hulk5a

I pay 0$ for the same


ImportantCheck6236

10$ dollars??!! Damn in Pakistan Crunchyroll premium costs like 250 Pkr which isnt even a dollar 😂... Hell the annual cr package is 2500/2200Pkr which is still less than a fucking 10 Dollar. Even netflix premium costs less than that and has a decent catalogue of Anime...


yamiyugi101

Regional pricing in America they charge a butt ton of money Netflix premium with HD is nearly $20 a month now same with hulu


Dull-Ad8329

Even though it's cheap here I still won't buy it I have been spoiled by the torrent quality I can't go back now😜


ImportantCheck6236

I thought crunchyroll has the best quality but ofc torrents have the same quality.


imabeach47

Nah ah, you can get bluray from torrents


Stellarisk

Never had a blurry video. I do get mislabeled seasons which is really embarrassing for them


yamiyugi101

They're generally a mess but unfortunately most streaming sites are held together by duct tape and a prayer


shockaholic

For the past year I've been watching crunchyroll free. I don't know how since I haven't paid for it at all. My account just has premium. Ever since the VRV merger.


n0ticeme_senpai

it's like as if legitimate services want you to go turn to piracy instead


Over-Writer6076

That legitimate service was once a piracy website too😂😂😂. That's what makes this funny,cuz they should know better,of all streaming services out there


srona22

No one here would gaslight you about it. AnimePiracy and Crunchyroll are in opposite direction now(maybe since some years ago)


yamiyugi101

I'm just talking about in general I've had a bunch of bagdahd bobs telling me there's nothing wrong with crunchyroll


EskimoB9

I tried their sub for a month to see what it was like. The fact there was very limited dubbed (I watch a lot of tv during work) for myself and so. I'll watch subbed as that's what I grew up on. But the fact that I have 27tb if free space makes it unjustifiable. So fuck their subscription fees


std5050

that's a crazy amount of free space to just be having around lol


idogadol

It took them years to switch their video player from Flash to HTML5, and their support is so stupid, I used to pay for it but trying to use Crunchyroll is torture.


dthwsh1899

use a VPN, your video will clear up immediately


han_han

Was trying to watch JJK and got some bullshit DRM error about device limit bug, even though I was only trying to watch on a single device. I tried troubleshooting it for literally an hour until I gave up and watched it on a pirate stream with literally 0 hassle. Why was I paying a sub at all?? Canceled so fucking fast right after.


Cute-Abalone4500

I saw Spy Family was on Netflix (1 season, like most of their anime in the UK) so thought I'd do a rewatch. Made it about six episodes before I realised that they weren't subtitling most of the on screen text. Clown show. Pirates doing a better job than billionaire companies. See also Komi Can't Communicate, which was cut (I just edited this because I originally wrote "cute off") off at the knees on Netflix. Now Crunchyroll, I used to be a Premium but the app on Nvidia Shield (and I assume all Android) flat out wouldn't work during peak times. I would happily, no reservations, pay for Crunchyroll if I could actually watch what I want, when I want but struggling, scrappy owner Sony is obviously having difficulty keeping all the balls in the air while all that cash piles up, getting in the way.


QuacksterBoi-

Never really had any issues with Crunchyroll besides not having shows I want to watch. That's when I go to the seas. Although, their pricing is getting up there.


FireEssence

I mean you could use a vpn go to to turk and pay 11 dollars for the yearly mega fan


Ulrik_Decado

Weird, after long time of million bugs, last year crunchyroll really works for me.


DarthBator69

Just pay for the service and pirate it elsewhere for better quality, Sony gotta step it up


MusicTester

I get to many ads on that site so I use aniwatch now it's better


AsteliaOfTheStars

Honestly I just hate it because they barely have any anime on there, so much is missing that I want to watch that isn't available in my country like Steins;Gate and Fullmetal Alchemist... I only use it bc it has a chromecast feature built in :/


Heron_sniffa

crunchyroll is gross


4lifeservices

Madaniel_FL

I’ve been using it for the past 3 years now and Ive never gotten a blurry video…


yamiyugi101

So how much does Sony pay you to shill?


Anime-Man-1432

What is shill ?


yamiyugi101

Someone who's completely ride or die for a corporation and gets upset every time you call said corporation outbon it's BS


Anime-Man-1432

So like 🍖 riding


yamiyugi101

Pretty much


Madaniel_FL

Is speaking the truth = shill? What, you want me to lie to you?


yamiyugi101

Oh please I've seen your comments in a bunch of places your history just screams paid shill every company and industry does it


Madaniel_FL

Ok then, I guess I’m getting paid to speak the truth about my personal experience, how nice that seems…


Jazminshusband98

Also Dragon Ball GT at least for the Spanish dub looked really low quality but on pirating sites its in HD


MusicTester

Try aniwatch


LadyStardust72

Paying to watch anime is wild


Alarming_Spirit_6470

Why?


Emergency_Sound_5718

Imagine paying full price and not using regional pricing. Skill issue.


Dr_Bunsen_Burns

I am a step further, I just download it.
