    On February 7, 2024, it was announced that the Funimation app and website would shut down on April 2, 2024, and that all Funimation subscribers could choose to migrate their account data to Crunchyroll until then. As part of the merger of services, legacy Funimation subscribers would see a price increase and users would lose access to their digital library. Following complaints from users, Crunchyroll president Rahul Purini stated that the company would work with customers to provide “appropriate value” for their digital copies.

      They just raised the price of Crunchyroll again. I’ll probably cancel next month once I’m done catching up on a couple shows

      Damn, that’s underhanded. I know every purchase is a license to view the material, not own it, but come on!

    I run an ad blocker and watch through HiAnime.to, so I haven’t worried about a subscription in a long time. I started and am now caught up with One Piece because of this site
