Crunchyroll buying out and shutting down Funimaton, deleting everyone’s purchased copies, and then hiking up their prices by 200% is just another example of why you should buy physical media. If you want to buy things you actually own, don’t look to streaming.
As an older(?) Anime fan, I am continuously amused when I spot anime in the wild.
I mean, look at this advertisement. No explanation, no tag line. Just Loid Forger.
Pretend for a second you know nothing about anime or Spy x Family.
Without context, what would this mean?
Who is this? What does he do?
Irrelevant, says Crunchyroll. Look at this man. He's Loid. Spy x Family. What is that? A show? A movie? Who cares. Watch it on Crunchyroll. Is that a channel? An app?Doesn't matter. Look at this handsome man. You want to see more of him. Locate the Crunchyroll. Consume Spy x Family.
The thought & painting process behind this painting I got to do for the Attack on Titan: Final Season! Still feels surreal to be able to say that I got to make a painting for such a popular anime series, but here we are

it's fucking bizarre to me that while every app is turning into a subscription plan they're also simultaneously removing all functionality from the apps to cancel your subscription. how the fuck is it legal to start charging someone monthly for something but then immediately after they sign up you take away the button to say "hey I'm done paying for that"???
this is fucking evil. "Hey I know we're tripling our prices soon but you can't cancel the membership in the app, but you could delete your account! but actually if you do that we're still gonna keep charging you money anyways :)"
I know they were very badly run behind the scenes especially the last few years but FUCK man.
A whole part of my teen years was influenced by RT. I feel like I'm losing a High School friend. Sure I hadn't checked in in a while but I still cared.
No matter how you feel about Crunchyroll I hope, I beg of them to pick up RWBY. Heck anyone who will appreciate it. RWBY is one of my all time favorite shows. It saved me from giving up art in HS because of a shitty art teacher. RWBY speaks to and connected to me in a way that is core to my being.
Montys dream shouldn't not be finished because of mismanagement or greedy fucking David Zaslav
