Thread: Fuck crunchyroll

    I was thinking that fansubbing's strong points would be for archival purposes.

    So people would watch shitty CR rips for immediate satisfaction and go back and archive the slower but better fansubs if still interested?

    Then you don't really like the series that much, so why bother archiving it.

    Well I'm all about buying the manga. But I can't get myself to support Viz and funimation.
    I hate the way that they water down the series to make it more accessible to younger and broader audiences. So, I really rely on teh fan subs to get the experience I want.

    Lol, you're so full of shit... it's fine to admit you're just not willing to fork up the money you know?

    You can be as antagonistic as you want but it doesn't change how I feel, if money was the issue I wouldn't buy the manga.

    I would happily buy some smut, but apparently they don't sell that in America?!

    Okay I was lying I wouldn't buy smut, but I would read it at the bookstore. If someone sees me doing it, doesn't that count as IRL exposure? XD

    I see Cal's points though. While raping the original product might please the moms and dads of the west, it can't be doing much for the hardcore fans who are actually willing to cough up a lot of money for merchandise. The happiness is almost mutually exclusive.

    Hey man, calm the fuck down. I agree with Cal_kashi, they do water down the translations so that the series are enjoyable for younger audiences. It's not a matter of money, I'm still want to buy all the volumes of One Piece, but I do enjoy the translations in the scanlations a good deal more.

    Crunchyroll to Simulcast Bleach TV Anime on June 8

    ANN | CR

    It's official.

    Quote Originally Posted by Crunchyroll
    All episodes will be available to all viewers, with the latest simulcast episode available for Premium Members one-hour after TV broadcast in 480p and 720p, then available for all viewers one week later.

    For subtitles, since BLEACH is already licensed by VIZ Media in the US, VIZ Media will continue to provide the official translation and subtitling for the newest episodes as well.

    Starting next Tuesday, June 8th at 2:30am PDT (yes that's AM), the latest arc beginning with episodes #266-#273, and the latest simulcast episode #274 will be available for Premium Members. Tentatively, the following week on June 15th, episodes #270-#274 will be available to all viewers, and the latest simulcast episode #275 will be available to Premium Members. Every Tuesday at 2:30am PDT, we'll be adding the latest simulcast episode immediately after Japan TV broadcast, and one week later for all viewers.

    It still only broadcasts in SD so it will just be an upscale

    Then why don't you support crunchyroll by purchasing their service? You are aware that some of the money goes back to the creator yes?

    I think Divine from RandomC sum it up best

    The anime industry is suppose to be in a rather bad shape right now also.

    I won't fall for your kuboing.
    Bleach's canon parts are worse than their filler ones.

    He`s right though, seeing the magnificent Arrancar arc bringed to life by only the best of the best artist out there brings a nerdgasm in me each and every second, i am of course, kidding.
