Give Me 5 Good Reasons to Not Cancel Zelma's Friend's CR Account - Shadow Administrator Drei - 09-03-2018
Crunchyroll is a blight upon the anime industry and supporting it financially is just encouraging the same boring, inane waifu bait to come and go each season. So little new and exciting content is made, and that which is is slow to arrive because the funding is so directed to people pretending to have a voluptuous or literal child significant other, or pretend to have a controlling power on those they deem lower than then when they're really just NEETs.
The premium streaming quality is supremely low, especially for lower priority content.
Subtitling is not customizable, so if the subs they have were sloppy or if there's egregious rights issues ala JoJo, you're stuck with suffering.
You can only search for the English title, and usually only the dubbed name instead of, say, any fan-common transliteral name. If I search for Psalms, I don't get the Eureka Seven series, which in the Japanese title translates to "Psalms of Planets: Eureka Seven."
They still use Flash as their video delivery, and IIRC aren't even actively testing a beta of HTML5 anymore for the Premium Plus members.
Show tracking is lacking, forcing you to use third party services to keep a catalouge instead of being convenient and having an in-service one that you can export from.

Tell them to use Nyaa
Also CR still using flash is a JOKE.

Hey now.
Reported for flaming Stir. We are all allowed to have our own individual opinions and we all like anime so we are all lit.

My problem with Crunchyroll is absolutely the ad servers. If you want me to watch ads, fine, but the ads actually have to load first!

Honestly Crunchyroll has a great library and even brought over some older anime that we probably wouldn't have seen come outside of Japan before. Hell, I was pleasantly surprised when they had the Akagi live action drama (though I don't think they've gone past season 1 yet, unfortunately.).
It is a shame they started out as a site that stole fansubs and then became legitimate overnight and I can't really disagree with anyone who has it out for them because of that, but imo that's water under the bridge at this point.
If you don't want to watch anime (or whatever else they offer), then yeah there's no need for Crunchyroll, but if you're into any of those genres their library is hard to beat.
