| Crunchyroll is good for me because I'm a privileged North American and I get basically every show on there, it doesn't lag for me when I use firefox or console/mobile, they have good technical support and the quality is definitely higher than kiss, but not torrenting, but more convenient definitely, makes it actually possible for me to watch long running shows because of autoplay feature. If OP isn't in NA or UK than probably not worth it, but if you just want to support the industry like me and get a few benefits as well, then I recommend it. First person to redeem my guest pass for Crunchyroll gets a 48 hour pass because I'm not gonna use it anyway, HGWHCTWFFKE |

| My problem with legal streaming sites like crunchyroll is that they sometimes cut scenes from the episodes YES, they really do that. For example, there was an anime where an episode had a certain song in it, and apparently it´s lyrics resembled copyrighted music, so they just cut the whole part with the song in it. I don´t want to see a butchered ersion of the original. It´s disrespectful towards viewers and content-creators. And I like even less that they don't inform the viewers that the episode has been cut. It's the same as with steam. Only reason why I have crunchyroll is because it does support a few anime a season. For the rest, I just use kissanime and if I like a show, I buy the dvd/blu-ray |

| My deciding factor for this is if Kissanime gets shutdown once the Pirate hunter starts. If it does than I will do it. For all I know it might not get shutdown at all or it might get shutdown temporarily. I am not exactly impressed by how much anime CrunchyRoll has compared to kissanime. I don't want to subscribe to it only to get disappointed. I won't get CrunchyRoll unless I am absolutely forced to. |

ultravigo said: their video player sucks it freezes every 40 sec. for me. I tried watching several times in their website still they don't seems to improve their laggy and slow as hell video player Is not their player, is your shitty internet connection. I have no problems even on the 1080Hp, but my country's internet infrastructure is top quality. |

That Japanese announcement of taking down pirating was only for those in their own country providing raw rips, kissanime gets 90% of their streams from ripping Crunchyroll/Funimation subs and video, so they won't lose their sorce provider. And Kissanime is based in the .to domain, so they can't take them down through just Japan. |

| yes crunchyroll is good quality I used it more often. Yosh, i heard that rumors. Japanese hiring hacker to shut down those website. |
 u'll never understood how the feel to be me. When the boundaries limit me to express or share my feeling. When u want to explain the truth but you are not allowed to. When u need someone to talk but u can't say anything |

Kissanime getting shutdown is pretty much out of the question though Right? |

They'll still likely be available on the direct fansubber's sites, kissanime just hosts them, even in the incredibly unlikely scenario it does get taken down another site will be made similar to it and the content will be moved to there, kiss has already been shutdown once by the way, hence why they aren't .com anymore. |

| Well Crunchyroll is good except for the ones who don't live in the US or UK thanks to bullshit licenses. Daisuki also has some shows in their catalogue that CR doesn't have. Although it might be the best to just buy the blu-ray if you can afford it. |

addioo12 said: What show/episode was that? Before blaming CR, I'd blame the absurdities of international music rights licensing. It's quite possible that the Japanese producers were able to license the song for a reasonable price in Japan, but the North American reproduction rights were prohibitively expensive.

| If you live in the USA it's worth it, they pick up a lot of good shows each season. Anywhere else, probably not. chruncyroll is shit, you got advertisment beore the opening, after the opening, half of the show, before the ending, and after the ending. What's more annoying is that after an ad the video will go buffer again That's the free service, there are no ads for Premium members who pay a subscription. Unless you're talking about the cellphone Ap, I don't use that very often so I can't say. I do recall it having a log in though so if you are a premium member it should work like the website. |

The problem isnt just that they cut it, but that they don't inform you that something was cut and why it was cut. I don't remember what show it was, and I don't really care either, but what if they start cutting other stuff as well? You wouldn't know, since they don't tell you, so you might miss out on important things or little details that set the right mood for the series. And steam is absolutely the same. They censor games that are intended for 18+ audiences. Why the hell would they do that? The target audience is old enough ti see nudity and extreme gore, so why censor it? Not everyone is tech-savvy enough to patch his censored games to get the real game-experience. Just fucking steam |

Ratchetdude231 said: Out of fear of all this bullshit about Japan shutting down our favorite illegal anime streaming/downloading sites I am considering investing in CrunchyRoll's premium service. Interestingly enough I thought the premium service costs 11 dollars a month but it turns that an entire year of Premium only costs 60 bucks. I have the money to spend but is it worth it and how much anime is on CrunchyRoll does it at least come close to being as good as Kissanime and those illegal sites. Crunchyroll used to be better than most: quality and they weren't so harsh on adblocker too. Now, it seems that they are trying to be more strict on adblock, so yea, kissanime or animeshow would be good alternatives. |
