So here's my honest take on Crunchyroll. I've tested a bunch of anime streaming apps and this one's probably the best. The selection is unbeatable, with thousands of shows to choose from. The app itself is pretty well-designed and easy to use. But it does have some issues - the ads can get really intrusive if you don't pay, and the recommendations aren't always on point. Still, if you're a diehard anime fan, Crunchyroll is probably the way to go.

Description

Been using Crunchyroll for a couple months now. It’s basically an app where you can stream tons of anime shows and movies, both new releases and classic favorites. Pretty solid if you’re into anime and manga.

Here’s what you do: you browse their huge library, add shows to your watchlist, and just start streaming. There’s also a cool community feature where you can chat with other fans. And the app has good quality video and works well on my older phone.

Look, if you’re a big anime fan, you’ll probably love this. It’s not perfect – the ads can get annoying if you don’t pay for the premium version – but overall it’s a great way to watch anime legally and for free. Worth checking out for sure.

I've had an account for a few years now. It's a great service, interface design, and large library. Recently they started playing ads. I pay for a fan subscription. That...

Has most of the anime you want. Occasional censoring, subpar translations, slowing, and/or freezing are frustrating and happen way too often. The search is suboptimal, to say the least. I've...
