  • Why do folks hate crunchyroll here so much? I’ve been torrenting anime before like everyone else, but a couple years gap later I have found it more convenient to pay $9/mo or whatever and watch shows interchangeably on TV, PC, tablet and phone. I get it, I could do this using self-hosting with various tools, but all those have an upfront cost for a media server and time invested in figuring out how I can make it all work seamlessly on a 2017 LG TV, an iPhone, Linux and a shitty Samsung tablet, plus potentially subscription fee for seed box and/or VPN as well. Whereas crunchyroll just works and if I get tired of anime again, I’ll just cancel the service.

    The only thing I don’t like about crunchyroll is the lack of dubbed kids shows.
