I think that Crunchyroll is not great on dubbing anime, and it should be much better. This is particularly in reference to Kingdom season 4 and 5 that are not dubbed. But also there are a bunch of anime on there that looked to be very interesting anime that are not dubbed. There are so many anime that are not dubbed and some people have issues with reading or trying to read subtitles takes away from being able to pay as much attention to what's going on in the story. It would be very much appreciated by so many anime fans if the animes can get English dub. Thank you and I hope you listen.
James, supported: Demand crunchyroll to dub kingdom season 4 and season 5As a teen librarian, I can attest to the power of Library Anime Clubs. I've seen shy teens connect with others over anime, and now my library's anime club is a giant, tight-knit friend group. My library is small and cannot afford to license shows and movies, so Crunchyroll's library program has been a lifesaver and helped make the club a success. Now is the time to be supporting libraries that are under attack, not withdrawing programs.
Brandi, supported: Bring Back Crunchyroll's Library Outreach Program - Save Library Anime ClubsI started our anime club about fifteen years ago. I followed every rule, even filled out the surveys asked for, so our patrons could enjoy the shows we were provided. Crunchyroll became such a huge part of the club in the past few years, giving us access to a lot of shows but also blanket permission, saving us time & uncertainty about our schedule. I have no problem paying for an account if that's what Crunchyroll wants, but I NEED that permission or our club is essentially dead after fifteen years. I'm already scrambling about what to do next week... if there IS a next week. I don't know if Sony / Crunchyroll understand how important these clubs are to certain kids, teens, & adults who have trouble interacting or finding friends. It's a welcoming place for them, and they learn to socialize through programs like this. This is an absolute nightmare and a blow to our community.
Jacob, supported: Bring Back Crunchyroll's Library Outreach Program - Save Library Anime ClubsWhen I was in college 10 years ago (RIT!), I was an active member of the anime club and even took on leadership roles in it. Every week, the club would gather to socialize and try a sampling of an anime or two, streamed from a legitimate source. These very club meetings led me to some of my best friends and greatest life experiences. I've even stayed involved with the club as an alumni! Unfortunately, that involvement has meant I've had the displeasure of watching corporations in the industry remove accessibility and butcher the anime/fandom culture I love. Netflix and Amazon never offered licence/streaming options to clubs, so they were always out of the question. Funimation was destroyed by SONY's acquisition. For the last couple of years, that just left Crunchyroll and Hidive as available streaming options- and I'll admit my faith in Crunchy started dying since back when they began ghosting conventions. It's a shame to see that Crunchyroll has become so greedy and against the very culture that allowed it to become so big in the first place. I hope that they come to reverse this shameful decision.
Allister, supported: Bring Back Crunchyroll's Library Outreach Program - Save Library Anime ClubsI work at a library directly across from a middle school. Having access to Crunchyroll was vital in building a club in which all teens were comfortable to chill and be themselves. This is incredibly disappointing.
Melinda, supported: Bring Back Crunchyroll's Library Outreach Program - Save Library Anime ClubsAs an anime club director, ive seen how the change has impacted my own small library and how limited we are in being able to view and show movies and TV shows in the anime realm. Its incredibly disappointing that they have decided to do this, but I hope that our signatures can help bring anime back into libraries and broaden what we can do with our clubs.
Cadence, supported: Bring Back Crunchyroll's Library Outreach Program - Save Library Anime ClubsI'm a librarian and Crunchyroll's Library Outreach Program was one of the few ways we could easily feature anime in our programming!
Charles, supported: Bring Back Crunchyroll's Library Outreach Program - Save Library Anime ClubsI'm a librarian in a small town and Crunchyroll's outreach program has been absolutely vital to the survival of my nearly 20 year old club. We started when anime companies would send screener DVDs out every month to libraries that requested them. When that faded away Crunchyroll was there to fill the gap.
Now I'm unsure how my club will survive. Teens can't afford to get their own accounts and don't want to use the free one based on the title restrictions and the same ads repeating on a loop for 90 seconds every 5 minutes.
Out of all my ongoing programs, anime club has the most consistent attendees. Yes, anime is more mainstream these days but they have found a home in library anime clubs.
I'm lucky because I know that my library would be able to pay for a subscription...IF we were allowed to have public performance rights for it.
I really hope Crunchyrolly changes their mind rather than destroying library programs all over the country
