  @BananaDnG Hypothetically, Yes. If whichever streaming service you have allows you to "screen record" your shows. Crunchyroll specifically prevents you from doing this. You would think that its common sense. The problem however, is licensing and distribution. None of which is possible if EVERYONE does what you suggest. The problem is this: physical copies already give you permission to watch what you have. Streaming services do that without the physicality, but with these servers. Taking away the physical data creates a direct conflict between you the consumer, and the ability to watch what you want to watch. That is all. So yes. You can do what you clalim in your intiial comment, but there are concequences. One being the inability to own what tou watch.

  @Maclovesmanga @Crunchyroll Ngl I think the main issue here is not that crunchyroll dropped the license (things were always going in and out of print all the time), but that scalpers will always fly in like vultures the instant something goes oop

  @DoesItPlay1 I’m willing to let them burn themselves down at this point. Between physical media and the **** they just pulled with their Crunchyroll stores, they’re awful. Will never stop speaking out though, Sony needs a reality check.

  @LeanaLovings It's awful too cause you're a fan of a series and you want to own the dvds then Crunchyroll was one of the few companies that officially licensed blu-rays (which is what Japan typically produced and those sales determined if a new season got made). But now it's basically impossible to collect dvds unless you're importing them with no subs and off a secondary market. When Funimation ended it was signaled the monopoly Crunchyroll has in the western anime market. We don't get to own anything anymore sadly

  @MangaAlerts What a terrible company. Barakamon is peak content. I'd say this is why you always buy physical but they're doing their best to get rid of that too. @Crunchyroll

  It has been 2 weeks.. However, the issue hasn't been resolved w.r.t forceful logout of our devices.. It asks for login everytime. @Crunchyroll you should guys invest on technical team instead of spending on advertising

  @thomasbland577 @Real_Kilometers This is true but unfortunately they are not combined. With of mercury is a good example, that entire series came out over the course of like 3 months per season, every 4 episodes they'd release 2 blu rays each with 2 episodes and each disk came with stickers and like a booklet. each was 10000 yen. so to get the whole series on blu-ray we are talking like 1000 usd. They do this so the studio makes money, the mid season blu rays help pay for the end season animation and the end season sales of character merch plus blu-ray helps inform the animation committee if they can continue and make a second season. Witch of mercury almost didn't get a second season. Another anime that aired that same year which was controversial was Obama, I think it clocked in at 12 episodes total, and they didn't bother with releasing the blu-ray's separately they had a box set labeled first tier and second tier with 2 disks inside in two separate boxes within a larger collectors box, came with art work, animation cel copies, stickers, a comic, a book cover for the manga, it was a good deal but was 120 usd. If we start buying straight from japan it'll help japanese studios immensely cause the money mostly goes to the studio. How crunchyroll operates is how funimation does, they offer a lump sum to distribute overseas, like, a million bucks mostly less, and they get rights for X number of years. That studio never receives a check again that's why dvds in america like cowboy bebop can have the whole series on it and be 30 bucks at best buy, goes funimation ripped off the studio. Eventually the rights are lost and if not renewed it leaves streaming. We have to stop streaming and order from japan.

  @Sony None because nobody should pay for Crunchyroll under any circumstances. Horrible service and while we're at it get your PlayStation issue with disc production fixed.

  @ChibiReviews The "anime creators" being silent on the matter doesn't surprise me in the slightest at all because they were never truly anime & manga fans at all if they truly were then otherwise they wouldn't be paid out by crunchyroll entirely but to assure everyone this still won't work

  @NegiKitsu TBH not only did he want to retire I'm pretty sure Rightstuf was struggling post covid because they always struggled to fill stock between manufacturing issues and just how hard specialty retail is and somebody at Crunchyroll and took it as an opportunity to kill a competitor

  @Nuk200 @Crunchyroll Paywalling basic access to the shop is messed up. The discount program always existed and nobody had a problem with it. Charging to access the shop at all is insane.

  @ChibiReviews Crunchyroll is the worst site for watching anime

  @Dexerto crunchyroll has the worst overlay for years now with the horrible continue watching section that shows stuff i already ******* watched and can't REMOVE or delist without deleting the whole watch history. This ******* service is getting worse and worse every year.

  Most of us don't care that much about Crunchyroll store so they are going to **** themselves on this one. It's hard enough to get us to pay for the subscription. It's just our fix that draws us back so

  @Maclovesmanga @Crunchyroll Just how things work. Super Sentai is going through a smiler things as the company won’t make any more and no more streaming sites. On eBay one is going for over $500.
