LOVE IT!!!! Yes there are ads, but if you've watched Crunchyroll on any other device you should be use to it. Adding this app has completed my Crunchyroll addiction. I have the site on my Roku player and on my computer as well, so I was happy to learn that there was an app. The quality of the shows is great, and I kind of prefer watching this way as opposed to on my TV or computer. Well worth getting it. Who needs game apps when you can spend your free time watching anime?

Yay! Finally running smooth! And by this, I mean through Chromecast. I prefer to cast to my TV because I find it easier when I just want to pop it on without pulling out remotes and controllers, like I have to for my PC and PS3. I open the app on my phone, hit the cast button, TV turns on like it's supposed to. No muss, no fuss. My PC and PS3 are a little too old, and simply are not set up for that. I would like to see better video controls in the app while streaming. Just something as simple as how many minutes/seconds of video go by when you move the slider would be great.

I don't get it. This is a great app. Well, a great app to watch anime on. If you can't afford the premium why complain about the ads? Just watch 1 minute and 30 seconds of ads. It's about a third of tv commercials. That's hardly anything to get upset about. And I'm pretty sure If the app decided to skip intros and outros then you'd miss some important pieces. Some anime have clips in the beginning before the intro. Others have a tiny nugget of video after the outro that isn't "next time on" so watch them.

Littered with ads An amazing app for anime, great quality, tons of shows. But there are a lot of flaws too. First and foremost, the ADS, tons of 'em, 3 at the beginning, 6 in the middle and 3 to get to the next episode. Also, there is no option for dub or sub , and you have to pay to get episodes were free services (kissanime) have them for no charge. In addition there is a void of popular, great animes.

Would love to give a 5, but.... Keeps crashing on my Android running nougat. Since I mainly run it on my phone and not my iPad I deduct 1 star. I deduct another star for selection with the paid app. Meaning, crunchy roll has about 60 - 75% of the anime that I want to watch and when they become available. Other than that, great app and great video quality.

Way to many ads I understand that ads are a must to keep the app free, but are you kidding me?! I had to watch 3 ads before the episode started (2 of which you can skip after 10 secs and 1 full ad you cant skip). During the same episode I had to sit through a total of 15 ads! That's just to many imo.

I had to watch 3 ads before the episode started (2 of which you can skip after 10 secs and 1 full ad you cant skip). During the same episode I had to sit through a total of 15 ads! That's just to many imo.
Didn't even get to watch a show After the initial ad it looked fine the intro played and then at the next ad interval it it kept giving me ads. I had stopped counting at the 46 ad and went off to go eat some chips for 10 minutes because of one ad and it was still at the same interval. After that I closed it and I submitted this, I didn't even get to watch past the opening sequence, wth is the problem crunchyroll?
premium is the go best site for anime on the net. anime being one of the best forms of entertainment anywhere: with some of the best and the worst story telling in bite sized chunks. the video player is very basic though. its why i dont give it 5. i watch the opening and closing titles once per series; i dont need to watch them 24 times or so. fast forwarding past them is a pain
App not working I keep getting server error for the past 20+ minutes. I would love to watch dinner anime, but the app is NOT WORKING. Plus, when it thinks it wants to work I get way too many ads. I am OK with one or two, but 4 and 5, really guys. Are you that desperate for people to buy premium?
Limited anime I'm new to this app. I don't know if it just me but it seems the anime library was very limited and all of the anime were quite old. Should I refresh the library or something? Or the latest anime only available for premium? The ads though, super annoying when its in the mid part of story.
"there was a problem playing the video" This error has existed since 1.1.5, and in the most recent version (2.0.6) it is still here. I have followed everything on the support page including changing to both opendns and Google dns, but it still shows up. If fixed will update to 5 stars, but I can't watch videos on the app anymore.
How to be a weeaboo! Awesome app! Has everything I wanted to watch. There are ads, but compared to cable tv, the ads are barely there. The ads seem to be on a timer, so skipping through the ads constantly can hit you with around 6 ads, but if you let one run then it could be just one ad. If they are too annoying then you could just pay the $7/month. Tv hits you with more ads and costs wayy more than $7, so..
Awesome It's the only app I use to stream my favorite anime. I love having the option to watch both the current season of anime and the seasons of years past. Many people complain about the ads in the free version however those ads help support the industry so it's give and take honestly. By paying the low fee to be a premium member you can say goodbye to all of the ads and enjoy quality anime non stop. I have an unlimited data plan so I can honestly say that you can binge watch as much as you want. It's worth it.
It's one of the best service for anime/manga you can get, It's cheap (4.99€ monthly), legal and has a great selection plus it helps the creators. The only negative is that there are way to many ads for free users and the region restrictions. I personly find it worth paying for!
Although the app is good, it still slacks. Some things being such as some shows not having many episodes on there because you don't add them. And some of those shows are still on here. If not, all. And there's also the fact the episodes will go from ascending to descending order, which is mainly helpful if you're nearing the completion of the shows. And, of course, there's other stuff still need to be fixed.
Good shows but.... There's an excessive amount of ads I can't watch anything with that amount of ads regular t.v. doesn't have that many ads I just can't watch crunchyroll cause of it and I refuse to pay $15 a month on top of everything else I've got going. Every time I see an ad I stop watching for hours. Put less ads and maybe I might give you a better rating but you truly do not deserve even 3 stars.
Obscene amount of ads I just had to sit through 20 ads to watch a single episode of anime. 20! How is this even a thing? I have never in my life had to deal with such an extreme amount of obtrusive ads. I will never use this app for anything more than an anime list after this terrible experience.
Good, but too many ads. Ads are necessary to profit, I understand that, but when you have to watch six ads three times per episode, it gets stale. My suggestion? Make it one ad before the episode, an ad at the middle of the episode, and an add towards the end. That way, you get ads, but we don't have to watch so many that it's longer than the episode.
I would give it five because it has a great variety of shows and is well played out to make it easy to find what you're looking for. However I can't currently afford premium, the problem isn't that I have to watch adds it's that it doesn't work, for me at least, with adds and I have to come out of the app then go back in and resume watching, this gets to be quite annoying. Other than that there is no real issue and if you can get premium there's really no issue.
Needs more titles I truly love this app. The quality is great and I never have streaming issues like I do on funimation. I enjoy watching anime on this app very much with my premium membership. The only problem is that there need to be more titles. If you do that, then I won't have to resort to different apps for the other titles I watch. Cough cough funimation
Way too many ads I love the idea of this app and I know you need ads to run however, when I'm trying to watch a very intense scene in one of my favourite animes I don't need 3-4 Google adverts, all at 30 seconds long ,that can't be skipped. Honestly, the ads have ruined the app for me.
Overall great This app does have ads if you don't have membership however this money so]org the community that I love so I don't mind paying monthly. There is a great selection and the team running the site has good judgment picking recommended good shows that are coming out and good older shows as well.
It could be way better!! The ads are out of control!! 6 30 ads right after the opening and then another 4 10 second skipable ads with 2 30 second ads then midway 2 30 second ads followed by another 2 skipable and 3 nonskipable ads at the climax of the episode. Do not use this unless you are on Wi-Fi! The ads are seriously ridiculous!!
Premium is mandatory I've had it where I cannot watch certain episodes as the app tells me "they're for premium members only". This is quite annoying as you can imagine since it locks me behind a pay wall for a free app. I'm hoping it's just a bug but if it isn't this is serious BS.
Not consistant Works at times but crashes at others. Forces you to watch the commercial than does not play video. I find myself having to close app and restart way too many times. There are no issues when I use other similar apps... Just this one.
Still awful Crunchyroll is still an unusable disaster. Avoid this app if you can! Better off using Netflix. It shows ad after ad after ad. It literally showed the same ad 3 times in a row before even starting the episode, then more ads after the opening.
Omg the ads... I can understand an ad or two at the beginning and middle and end. But each group has 5-6 ads??? I love my kdramas and they have ads but this takes it a little excessive... However the anime collection seems impressive. I'll try watching a few more times but I don't think I can keep this with that many ads playing everytime.
Great app I like this better than the actual site online tbh. Runs well too. I just wish you could organize your queue. Im a bit OCD. I have to move them around by removing and re-adding them which takes forever since my list is so large
Surprised All the reviews I see are to many ads then get premium and or watch on another third party source. There are options I watch on this and other sites so I know how the ads can be annoying but I pay 7 or 5 dollars a month to avoid them. Easy said. Don't complain on reviews it's a great app if you don't mind spending the Extra dollar on quality but then again this app does have its flaws not going to say it's perfect.
Ads play on repeat with no break My Moto G3 will only play videos for a few moments before repeatedly playing ads. I had this same issue 4 years ago and it's very disappointing that's its still prevalent today.
Awesome Got it for DragonBall super. Works great no issues, good quality, and alot of comercials. I'm just a little upset it said that episodes 31-46 would be added for weeks now and no sign. Still love the app though.......I want my tournament episodes.
What's with all the ads I get that for free users there is going to be ads but I just watched 10 ads in a row and another came on so I just deleted the app. I can see if 2-3 or something but my god. Simmer down on the ads for free users and maybe I'll redownload
Way too many adds Literally watched 4 mins of a show and got bombarded with 10 ads back to back. Maybe if they only have one ad at a time, ill give 5 stars.
Doesn't work I'm not sure why but just recently I haven't been able to watch a single show, even without that very annoying restriction which is Canada specific. The video won't load, and says there's an issue playing the video. This is very annoying because usually crunchyroll is my go to source for anime.
Can't upgrade I already used up my free trial so when I went to upgrade to premium it kept giving me an error message. Won't let me upgrade and I refuse to watch 4 ads at a time during my show. Outrageous
Leaps ahead of your PC steaming. However the ads have become overwhelming. For a 25 minute episode I have to watch 4 sets of 3 ads. Each add averaging 30s long. That's 1 1/2 minutes of ads for every 4 minutes of anime... I can't be alone inthinking this is a bit over the top. Everything else seems to be working well.
Great for any anime fan! If you're using the free version, yes the ads can be super annoying, but it's just like watching TV, ads come on there. The paid version really isn't that much and it's worth paying just to get rid of the ads lol!
Keeps crashing when I try to open - no update since last use, so???? Great app, if you pay for early access or use an adblock. Otherwise those get a bit annoying, but the selection kinda outweighs that too. Just please fix the crashing!!
Bug The app is great and has many choices but more times than not after an advertisement it pulls up an error message. I have to shut down he entire app and rewatch the ads all over again.
Too many video playback problems I've encountered so many times the video will just not play after an ad section. The ads play just fine but ruins any chance of watching anything. Check your video player. The coding is messed up if ads are the only thing actually playing rather than the show.
