| Well, this thread sure has escalated to the morals of pirating vs not pirating rather quickly. On the flip side, oh look, a winter simulcast list, yay! |
 Just this once, I'll fulfill whatever your wish is. |
| *hopes for Senran Kagura to get a simulcast* Needs more exposure so we can get the anime licensed and the games here. |
 |
| So in conclusion, we're both just awful. |

| So in conclusion, shit's being simulcasted. Or is it still just simulcast? shymel said: I hope Crunchyroll picks up Amnesia and Chihayafuru season two. I can almost guarantee they'll get Chihayafuru. |

|
| I pay for CR. But, I still dl & watch Fansubs. This way, I'm 'supporting' the industry and getting decent subs at the same time. So, this news doesn't really concern me *-* |
| YES YES YESSS! Crunchyroll is streaming Achiga-hen :D :D :D :D |
 |
Hoppy said: *hopes for Senran Kagura to get a simulcast* Needs more exposure so we can get the anime licensed and the games here. I imagine that somebody will simulcast that. Obviously, Crunchyroll streaming it would be better since CR's streams are quite good and usually covers at least major English speaking countries. I wouldn't be surprised if Funimation got it though. |
 |
| Ideally, you'd pay for Crunchyroll and then download fansubs so that you can actually enjoy what you're watching in actual English, with at least an effort at typesetting. Look at Commie, they just use Crunchy's scripts and add karaoke, typesetting, and usually, some semblance of life to the robotic subs CR puts out. I legitimately feel bad for anyone who exclusively watches anime on Crunchyroll, it's like getting half of a fansub. Not that Commie is your best bet, but they're almost always better than HorribleSubs. Protip: Downloading a fansub isn't hurting anyone, but watching lesser-quality subs is hurting someone, namely yourself. Do whatever you need to do so that you can sleep at night, but don't fool yourself into thinking that Crunchyroll is ever your best choice. |

Do whatever you need to do so that you can sleep at night, but don't fool yourself into thinking that Crunchyroll is ever your best choice. You guys take this stuff too seriously. I mean, whats the real difference? Slightly better picture quality or a bit different translation? Who cares unless you're just obsessed with staring at the picture to find minor faults or if you know Japanese itself to be able to tell the differences in whats being said. Crunchyroll is fine for what I want out of my anime watching experience. I'll watch fansubs for stuff Crunchy doesn't have, but unless its like a week late on Crunchy, I'll just watch it there instead of getting fansubs. |
 |
| People who think CR isn't good enough need to step back on the self-entitlement. What's with this need to have dancing karaoke, over-styled subtitles, and layering English text over Japanese signs? I remember when anime fans got mad at that last one. Sheesh. |

| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| How come there's suddenly a whole load of idiots like the one above me on this thread? (note: referring to anonymousca4 sorry) Most fansubbers have much worse releases than CR. Sure, there are a few exceptions, but that is the way it goes, not the other way around. I have never seen anything on CR that is actually painful to watch, whereas every other release from fansubbers fall into that category. Shonen filled lineup? lol? Sure, the most watched series on there are shonens, as they are everywhere else. CR bids for every series, and gets a broad variety of stuff. Saying stuff like "their shonen filled lineup" only serves to weaken your point as it shows that you don't really know what you're on about. Oh and want the original product? Just right click and turn the subs off then. NO subs - fansubs or CR subs or funimation subs or whatever else - none of them are "the product the original studio intended to sell", and if the studio actually does have a preference on how something is subtitled, it is far more likely to show up in CR's releases than in a bunch of people with no connections to the studio of any sort illegally sticking their own subs on a show. And the second paragraph of that post is just laughable. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| I have a feeling Anonymousca4 has never watched a CR stream, possibly never even seen the website. |
Redfoxoffire said: I have a feeling Anonymousca4 has never watched a CR stream, possibly never even seen the website. I suspect that as well. Yeah, I sure watched a boatload of shounen when I watched the Spring 2012 lineup where I followed Nyarko-san:Another Crawling Chaos, Fate/Zero, Dusk Maiden of Amnesia, Kids on the Slope, Yurumates3Dei, Space Brothers, the second half of Bodacious Space Pirates, and the 2nd cour of Knight in the Area and had to put Upotte and Medaka Box on my backlog. /sarcasm tag just in case. For the record, my favorite show of Fall 2012 which had a lot of popular shounen shows is Girls Und Panzer. I don't think anybody associates GirlPan with shounen(I really have to finish watching the original Saki soon. I love that, and think I'll love the Episode of Side-A spinoff) |
|
| Well, I hope to see some good shows picked up by Crunchyroll. I like their system and it's convenient for me to stream on my ipad. I only download anime when I want to make gifs (which means I really love the series). :/ |

Yes, Crunchyroll! Best streaming site IMO, comes through again! I usually prefer no subs at all and I can turn them off with Crunchyroll. |
| Sentai might pick up Love Live for DVD. |

Hoppy said: Sentai might pick up Love Live for DVD. http://www.crunchyroll.co.uk/love-live-school-idol-project Publisher: NIS Though they also says its demographic is Shoujo, so maybe Crunchy has no idea what they're talking about with the publisher. |

NIS America is a great fit for Love Live! Maybe if the premium box of this sells well for them, they can then license The Idolm@ster. And I also agree with Ryan, hopefully this Winter, we all be in Idoltown on Crunchyroll (Puchimas is one of more anticipated shows) |

| I like my idols not quite as much as everyone else, but damn, is this becoming a big trend in Japan or something? Or has it always been and I'm late to the party? |

|
jmal said: Both are guaranteed watches for me, but I'm still bitter about Yama no Susume being short episodes. Yeah that was disappointing for sure. |
|
| Only short I'll be watching is Puchimus. Other than that, shorts are generally a waste of time since you can't really do anything in that limited timeframe. |
|
RyanSaotome said: Only short I'll be watching is Puchimus. Other than that, shorts are generally a waste of time since you can't really do anything in that limited timeframe. I disagree, I enjoy shorts. Chitose get You, Teekyu, Poyopoyo recently have been quite fun. You have to work quickly but it is something which long anime makers could relearn. Some short episodes have more in them than full length ones... |
jmal said: Oh hell I didn't realize Mangirl was 5 minute shorts too. What the hell. There are like 8 five minute or less shorts this season. These are the true cancer that are killing anime. |
|
jmal said: RyanSaotome said: There are like 8 five minute or less shorts this season. These are the true cancer that are killing anime. Feels like walking in a minefield. I think I see a number of shows with really interesting premises, and as soon as I get close, boom, no real episodes for me. Blah, I'll still watch some of them (not Oosaka Okan, bleh flash anime) because I've liked ones like Morita-san and Yurumates, but both Yama no Susume and Mangirl would have made for shows I'd love in full size and will only consider a mild fun diversion at best in short format. And I can't see myself ever importing a short-format show either. But you get the entire season on one disc! I have preordered Teekyuu ... |
RyanSaotome said: jmal said: Oh hell I didn't realize Mangirl was 5 minute shorts too. What the hell. There are like 8 five minute or less shorts this season. These are the true cancer that are killing anime. Even worse is that they don't sell either resulting in little profit to whatever studio animated them. Although Puchimas may sell due to being in the Idolmaster Franchise, merchandising may suffer from the rest, if any is made (I don't own any figures from a 5 minute anime so far). |

Still would be funny for a short to sell 4 times what the Idolmaster fanfic mecha show did though. |

melina_putri said: Hoping Cuticle Tantei Inaba, Hakkenden and AMNESIA getting simulcasted. These series are unlikely being fansubbed by existing fansub groups. Like everything outside of maybe the shorts will get fansubbed. You might just have to wait a couple days or take a Hadena style release. |

That's like half of my PTW that's projecting to sell and I'm glad Senran Kagura is in there, licensor when and where? |

melina_putri said: CR add another title: http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2012/12/27-1/crunchyroll-to-stream-ai-mai-mi-anime All 3 series announced today are shorts. And 4 of the 5 total shows announced so far. It almost feels like false advertising if they boast their large amount of shows they will be simulcasting if half of them are 3 minute shorts. |

Interesting. |
| Love Live, Mangirl, and ai mai mi... Where are the other 2 school series? From what I can gather, the Osaka one isn't. The achiga-hen specials don't take place in a school except for a couple of short flashbacks (despite being the only one of the six that is given a "school" tag on MAL), and Yama no Susume sure doesn't look like it takes place in a school. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| Hey, most of the simulcast of crnchy are 3 to 5 minutes per episode. Maybe I watch some of them. |
| CR, those 2-5 minute shows won't even sell on any market or get licensed in the West, and they didn't even get Puchimas, something that's the same length but has a decent chance of selling and maybe even get licensed (sentai got one of the Idolmaster anime), please get more stuff that someone can license and has a decent chance of selling. You started off great, now you're declining. |
