An American distribution, publishing, production, and licensing organization with a concentration on streaming anime, manga, and drama are called Crunchyroll, LLC. Over 100 million registered users worldwide receive content through Crunchyroll’s distribution channel and partnership program, which was founded in 2006 by a group of the University of California, Berkeley, graduates. As a division of AT&T’s Otter Media, Crunchyroll collaborated with Funimation from 2016 to 2018, and after Sony acquired Crunchyroll in 2021, the two brands would eventually combine in 2022. Through a partnership between Sony Pictures and Sony Music Entertainment Japan’s Aniplex, Sony presently owns the business.
Over 1,000 anime programs, more than 200 East Asian dramas, and about 80 manga titles are all available to users on Crunchyroll, albeit not all content is accessible internationally owing to license limitations. In February 2017, Crunchyroll attained one million paid subscribers, and by 2021, it had over five million. Additionally, Crunchyroll makes home video releases, either directly or through its distribution partners for some anime titles.
Anime enthusiasts in India have a lot more to look forward to shortly, according to a recent announcement from Crunchyroll, the world’s top anime website.
As the subscription tiers change to 79 INR for the Fan subscription tier and 99 INR for the Mega Fan subscription tier, the cost of a Crunchyroll Premium membership is getting cheaper in India. In addition, rather than being charged in dollars, fans will now be charged in local currencies. With today’s price cut, Crunchyroll memberships will be consistent across all platforms, including online, mobile, and living room devices, and more content will be available for anime fans to enjoy.
The almost 5,500 anime episodes available on Crunchyroll in India include 1,000 hours of English-dubbed content. In addition, My Dress Up Darling and Ranking of Kings, two incredibly popular series, are now accessible in Hindi on Crunchyroll, with more to come.
“There is a big appetite for anime in India with a growing number of fans who are craving more of what they love,” said Rahul Purini, president of Crunchyroll. Our staff has been working hard to improve our service by adding more content and dubs at a lower cost.
One of around 100 price reductions across all of Crunchyroll’s international markets is for India.
The Fan and Mega Fan Premium subscriptions are available from Crunchyroll. The Crunchyroll Fan subscription enables ad-free viewing, access to Crunchyroll’s collection of anime dubs, as well as access to Crunchyroll manga and series that are simulcast on the same day as their Japanese premieres.
All the advantages of Crunchyroll Fan are included with the Crunchyroll Mega Fan membership, including offline viewing of anime and simultaneous four-stream streaming of Crunchyroll.
