This does not mean TL merged with CR. CR is sponsoring TL.

It's mostly a streaming service for Japanese Anime and you can also read some Manga as well. With the 1-month free subscription you will have 1080p stream access to any of the shows that they offer, and there will be no ads.

Nothing is changing afaik. CR is just a new sponsor they will presumably give us money for advertising their service

what a limited point of view you have..

one piece takes the cake by far and large in terms of plot, character development, etc. there aren't wrong or right opinions but my opinion is that your taste is terrible if you're steering people away from one piece. of course, the popularity of one piece speaks for itself

"better anime", lol. then you recommend neon evangelion, which i'd only recommend watching if you're into edgy stuff which barely makes sense at all

can vouch for cowboy bepop, it's quite good.

but one piece for 15 year olds? lmao man, how stuck up can you get. for the record one piece is the first anime i'd ever watched and introduced me to the genre and honestly none of anything i've ever read / watched since has come close to one piece. to say one piece is bad means that you're that guy who has sophisticated taste who knows better than the rest of us amateur, tasteless plebs. that's exactly how you come off with comments like that

like seriously, the one piece discussion thread on tl.net has seen it all. everything from morals and ethics to physics have been discussed to death in the thread. you're telling me it's for 15 year olds? what a meme

only kingdom comes close, which is also by the way absolute insanity. by far my second favorite manga

good work on the collab, but crunchyroll sigh ;;;;


Whats wrong with Crunchy?


their subs.



Exactly. I don't even watch anime and I know this.

I'm not sure partnering with these guys is a good idea professionally.

I hope you're being sarcastic. If you don't watch anime, you're working with some very dubious secondhand information. Crunchy does a pretty damn good job with their subs considering the time frame they have to work with (they typically only have a few hours between when they get the RAWs and when their simulcasts go up). Apart from a few minor translation or localization issues, their subs are pretty high quality.

Also, they just made a deal with their primary business rival Funimation through which they get the licenses to most of Funi's subtitled catalog, and to most subtitled simulcasts moving forward, so they've just gained almost a monopoly on subtitled anime. Seems like a pretty great idea to partner with them professionally at the moment.


Crunchy has improved a lot over the years. They used to be pretty bad but are good for what they do now. The only thing I dislike is the white subtitles with almost no border/shadow that in some bright series are hard to read.


CR's subbing quality has gone from laughable to not-really-tolerable (passable on their best days, which means their Rozen Maiden team isn't working on it). For an organization that hires professionals, they're still worse than what fansubbing was five years ago.

Good thing for them that fansubbing is essentially dead now.

People, as you know, are super attached to the TL community, when you make an announcement that kinda reads like a merger people get very scared very fast.

To me you either you make a funny announcement where you know some people will whine or you make sure there's absolutely no misconceptions. You did the first thing (which I like) but i dont get how you can be surprised by some of the community reaction then.


I think people are just misunderstanding the wording with "fusion". It was a joke referencing what is seemingly an obvious anime meme, but the confusion is understandable--hard to determine this when you are on the inside.

Crunchyroll sponsors TL would be more clear, but less topical and fun. There is a trade off, you're right. Hopefully it's more clear now though!
[...]I was definitely in the camp that had no idea what any of it actually meant ^^.

I thought they would actually merge. With myanimelist having entered the streaming business some time ago, it wasn't unthinkable.

Great timing! Seeing all the Japanese reading manga in the subway got me thinking about watching some anime when I'm back home. I'll definitely check this out

So you say it's too late to start with One Piece? What's other "must see" that is more accessible?


Don't watch One Piece, unless you're maybe 15 years old, then you might enjoy it (especially if you haven't watched better anime first). It's a waste of time anime.

For anime, I suggest (watch all subbed):
- Berserk (dark fantasy, more mature, cult anime. watch the old version, not the new "movies")
- Neon Genesis Evangelion (cult, watch the old series. there are 2 endings, don't remember which one is better to watch first)
- Golden Boy (comedy, only 6 episodes, watch the dubbed version, this is one of the rare dubs that's actually better than the japanese voices)
- Akira (anime movie, dystopian future, cult anime)
- Hellsing (old one, the new is also not bad)
- Cowboy Bebop (more mature than most anime)
etc.

Nice to see this partnership!

Can agree with that, though, Golden Buy is more for perverted people who like comedy.


:D

Nah, I don't care about the perverted stuff in it. Study Study Study!

doesn't matter, neither ending makes sense


I actually prefer the first ending, the low budget psychological one. For me it kinda made sense, but yeah, I know what you mean.

I was too lazy to explain since I don't like posting long posts over the phone.

Let's get some things straight first. Are you serious? You're saying it isn't aimed at 15 year olds? Get a grip. It might have evolved some, but it certainly did start as a young teenager anime, and probably still is. I bet if you checked its demographics, it'd be mostly people under 20. I'm not saying some adults can't enjoy it, though.

I can understand the bias since it's your first anime, but if you haven't seen any anime that comes even close, you need either a reality check, or to watch more and deverse anime.

You're basing the quality of anime on popularity? Please.
  1. Kids and young adults make a vast majority of the anime-watching-population, and this anime is aimed at them.
  2. It's a long-running *active* anime, so people can get into it and follow their favorite characters for the long haul, gathering more watchers along the way. Long anime = many older fans, AND new blood watching it, hence the popularity (and then it grows exponentially).
  3. Young people haven't watched many anime yet, so they can get fanatical/biased about the few they have watched, especially if it's their first one, like in your case.
  4. There's not many long and *active* anime for young people, so the few that exist get all the attention.

THAT'S why it's popular, not because of its quality (even though the quality isn't bad).

I've watched it because of all the hype; then when I wanted to drop it, I watched some more just to make sure I wasn't missing something - because so many people can't be wrong (and because some anime start being better after the story unfolds a bit). Nope, it was a chore watching it (maybe it would be better with less fillers, don't know), so I dropped it.

Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad anime at all, it has some great moments/features, but it's not what I'm looking for these days. I might have enjoyed it more when I was 15, and before I watched other anime. After some time of watching anime, anime like these get boring, especially when you grow up. It might sound condescending, but it's the truth. (boring =/= bad)

I've watched my fair share of DBZ and even some Naruto when I was younger (I'm not saying they're the same as OP, but they're not that different either). I love DBZ, but if you asked me to rewatch it, I'd rather bash my head against the wall (because of the content, as well as length/fillers - if I enjoy the content, though, length is not a problem).

The content of the OP thread matters, why? With pretty much any long-ass-thread, discussion tends to veer-off to various topics at one point or another. When you have a lot of people participating, it's bound to go to many different topics (especially since some of them are now going to college or finished it). Nothing about that proves anything.

I'll take a look at Kingdom, but knowing your tastes, I'm not sure it's going to fit my bill.
Edit: The anime could be good, but I'm unsure if I'd enjoy the theme/plot, seems it'll be a hit-or-miss. Will check a few episodes when I get time. Thanks.

I knew someone will comment on NGE, that's why I was reluctant to put it on the list. Then I said, fuck them, it's a cult and revolutionary anime, and it's quite good, especially for its time.

I know it's a teen-angst thing, but I don't care. It's very multi-faceted, even though it can be kinda black-and-white regarding some things. I like the story and the atmosphere, even though I've kinda outgrown some of the teenage things in there (some of them still resonate though). For some of us NGE makes more sense than others, we're all different, everyone has his/her cup of tea. So no need to get upset and personal over an OP comment, even if I could have worded it a bit differently to not upset some poor souls.

Anyways, if you would like to continue this discussion, we can do it over PMs, since this isn't an anime discussion thread. But I'd prefer if we didn't.

Those anime are often made to sell Blu-Rays by showing nude parts and exciting situations. Kind of like soft porn. Mangas of that type also tend to have the motivation. I assume it is more popular in Japan due to the censorship laws forced on them after WW2.

See stuff like the following on how common it is it is:
https://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?tagid=2856&show=tag&orderby.ucnt=0.2&orderby.name=1.1&noalias=1&cat.minweight=6
The more popular series also has a secondary redeeming feature that makes them good in general.

A similar example to this might be Queen`s Blade where they fight using weapons but all fights end up nude and often with compromising holds.

What kind of of scam is this?

I cancelled my sub after the test period.

Then they booked me

Then i cancelled again

Now they booking me again??? Seriously? And I have to fill a survey to cancel?

Edit1: And now they wont't accept my survey. My sub can't be cancelled at this time... what???? Are you kidding me?

Thank you for your response!
You may not cancel your membership at this time.
