Educate me on the Crunchyroll Question.
Why does everyone hate them?
Never gave enough of a shit to look into it before and didn't think it was important since I'll never pay for streaming services when I can get everything for free.
Educate me on the Crunchyroll Question
WEST BAD
>paying for anime
>paying for a shitty stream of an anime
>paying for jews to buy streaming licenses for anime (which are what? $2k a pop?) and dubs (LOL)
>or don't pay and watch for an even shittier stream
There, now you know better.
>inb4 muh support the industry!
Buy BDs or merch then you spastic.
>Why does everyone hate them?
Because the profits they make from subscriptions goes directly to Crunchyroll while the production team that makes the anime in Japan get a very small portion of the profits.
Bad translations, Western Political agendas, paying to a company which wastes that money instead of supporting creators as advertised. Better to torrent and see if the content is worth buying to support.
They're an invasive western company that forced themselves into the anime scene. They do nothing but grab content and force others to pay for it. They're not a middle man in this either; as the other anons pointed out, the money goes to CR, not the people that matter. If you remember 4kids, then it's basically like them but worse.
funding censorship
They were a pirate site that made money off fansubs. They wanted "donations" for downloads or something. Then they went legal, and plagued us with shit subs and bad video quality.
And now, CR is one of the least worse streamers. But still shit.
Bad quaility streams, almost everything of the sub goes to them instead of the OG creators, shitton of shows are REGION BLOCKED.
Just torrent or use shady streaming sites with adblock and if you liked a show, go support the creators DIRECTLY isntead of giving money to these parasites.
You got any sources on that?
I read an ANN article saying how crunchyroll is funding entire productions and I didn't buy it for a second but I'd like proof to the contrary.
