I wonder, are dubs licensed differently compared to the original Japanese cast on Anime shows? Like I have found a few shows now on HIDIVE that have English dubs and the same show are on Crunchy Roll but with no dubs, or is Crunchy Roll just dropping the ball here?

Crunchyroll is raising prices because of course they can since there is hardly any competition

I wonder if this also have to do with them having to pay out the settlement :bunhdthink:

I finally got the settlement check from the Crunchyroll lawsuit, for like $31. I guess it covers part of the yearly plan I have with them.

Mais bon, même s’il n’a rien fait lui-même, et même en tenant compte des circonstances, on est d’accord que le Sasaki a maintenant du sang sur les mains (en tant que complice), hein ? :/

AI Subs vs Human Subs: Sailor Moon Edition!

If you want to know what Crunchyroll may be promising with its AI subtitles in the future, this is what it could look like:

Ma se i siti pirata sono più veloci a pubblicare puntate anime sottotitolate meglio senza IA, perché diavolo pensate che una buona soluzione sia far sottotitolare (forse) più velocemente ma (quasi) sicuramente peggio da una IA?

Investire in più esseri umani per fare un lavoro migliore e più rapido, no? Le IA vi hanno dato alla testa.

"You will own nothing and we will be happy". Kiss your digital library goodbye.

I'm worried about how this nightmare is going to affect . I'm paying 5€ per month and I'm not a fan of a price hike, or even worse, ads in the lowest tier (which is a pretty good deal).

@test

Una pagina di supporto sul sito Web di Funimation afferma che il servizio trasferirà automaticamente gli abbonati esistenti a Crunchyroll, sottolineando che il trasferimento "può variare a seconda della piattaforma di pagamento specifica, del tipo di abbonamento e della regione". Ma la pagina – inutilmente – non dice quanto gli abbonati dovranno pagare dopo la transizione, solo che gli abbonati legacy vedranno un aumento di prezzo. Dovrai controllare la tua email per vedere quanto dovrai pagare.

"Sony just raised the price of anime and left American otakus with few other options. The company’s anime streamer, Funimation, is officially shutting down on April 2, according to a press release on Wednesday. Crunchyroll, Sony’s other anime service it acquired in 2021, sent an email to subscribers that prices will soon be raised from $55 a year to $100 a year."

> Crunchyroll will not support Funimation's digital copy content. Funimation provided digital copies as part of some home video DVD or Blu-ray Disc purchases.

RIP digital copies. If you want them, don’t buy digital unless you can download anything without DRM attached. Always get physical copies of what you want to own.

They sold out of the Gojo drink but the guy was so nice to me he let me have the Gojo sleeve and sticker. Also my blind coaster purchase was Gojo. The drinks were actually really good!! Better than the Honkai Star Rail Sunright collab. That one required you to buy the set to get any goods.

4 year ago I had never read a manga or watched an anime.

Now I'm debating a Crunchyroll premium subscription and just bought my second manga series off kobo.

The "fanservice" aspects of anime/manga kept me a way for a long time. I'm deeply uncomfortable with how femme characters are handled. BUT I have found some truly lovely stories that are so much more sweet and slice of life than anything in live action.
