Fans created fan content and sent it addressed to voice actor David Wald to Crunchyroll. Instead of forwarding, they opened the package and put the stuff on a freebies table for employees to take.

Dear friends: if you sent me anything care of Funimation or Crunchyroll in the last 5 years, I apologize, I didn’t get it. I learned yesterday that @Crunchyroll opened my private mail, threw away your letters, and passed out any included items to their staff.

Dear fellow workers at @Crunchyroll - below is a photo of the complete contents of one of the packages addressed to me that was opened and distributed to employees. If you ended up in possession of any of it, I would very much like it returned to me.

According to his tweets, he received two items that were still on the freebies table.

A follow-up tweet of his voices further, broader dissatisfaction:

Me, thinking: “…Jeez, it’s a good thing I didn’t tell them about the gay discrimination. Or the medical discrimination. Or the union busting. Or the continuous culture of fear. Or the hostile workplace environment, or…”


I can’t navigate or see Twitter unfortunately, but apparently; The disappointed fans commented as well. And other voice actors also vented some of their frustrations in interacting with Crunchyroll.

    Man, why is Twitter X so popular. I hate the closed platform, unordered tweets and replies, no contexts on tweets, segmented content and texts. Otherwise I would have explored and added more links and context.

      Replace “x.com” in the URL with “xcancel.com” to see context, replies, chronological user tweets, etc. It’s a Nitter instance that still works.

        Ah, nice, thank you. I looked at other nitter instances but those were down or did not work.
