Crunchyroll

Crunchyroll is an American subscription video on-demand over-the-top streaming service owned by Sony Group Corporation. The service primarily distributes films and television series produced by East Asian media, including Japanese anime, and is headquartered in San Francisco, California, with a Japanese branch located in Shibuya, Tokyo.

Launched in mid 2006 by a group of University of California, Berkeley, graduates, the service has over 120million registered users worldwide. Crunchyroll was previously a subsidiary of AT&T/WarnerMedia's Otter Media, and from 2016 to 2018, the service partnered with Funimation, which Sony acquired in 2017 and would eventually merge into its brand in 2022 after Sony acquired Crunchyroll from AT&T in 2021.

Crunchyroll is a member of The Association of Japanese Animations (AJA). "Crunchyroll-Hime", also known as "Hime", has been the official mascot of Crunchyroll since June 2013.

Crunchyroll offers over 1,000 anime shows, more than 200 East Asian dramas in over 18 languages, and formerly offered around 80 manga titles as Crunchyroll Manga, although the number of available shows varies by each country due to licensing restrictions. Crunchyroll passed one million paid subscribers in February 2017, and has over 15million paid subscribers . Provided by Wikipedia
