If you’re still using Crunchyroll after its AI subtitle fiasco and subsequent price increase, there’s a new way to watch. The anime streaming service is now available as a channel in the Apple TV app.
That means you can subscribe and stream your favorite anime titles, all within Apple’s video app. No need for the Crunchyroll app or a separate login. (Your Apple account handles your subscription using this method.) 9to5Mac notes that this is the first significant new channel added to the TV app in some time.
Crunchyroll starts at $10 per month, after the platform raised all of its monthly subscription prices by $2 earlier this year. That may be a hard sell for fans frustrated by the platform’s direction.
Last year, months after the company president enthused about the potential for AI subtitles, fans noticed something fishy. The German subtitles for Necronomico and the Cosmic Horror Show included one that began with “ChatGPT said…” Crunchyroll pinned the blame on a third-party vendor and promised it would work to “rectify the error.”
