How to watch Crunchyroll from anywhere: cheapest subscription prices, plans, streaming devices (2024)

Since combining forces with Funimation in 2022, Crunchyroll has become the planet's dominant force for anime streaming. Having already built up a loyal following since it was founded in 2006, the niche streaming platform now has upwards of 10 million paid subscribers who are able to access a dedicated anime library of more than 1,000 titles.

Name an anime show and there's an extremely good chance that it's included in the Crunchyroll catalog, and new content is being added all the time. The likes of Attack on TItan, Spy x Family, Jujutsu Kaisen, My Hero Academia and Demon Slayer are all there. But they're really the tip of the iceberg.
