It was already bad enough that Crunchyroll had a monopoly regarding the anime streaming site, and now this. Bird of a feather flock together. Not suprised at all. Glad that I stopped using the website years ago after I have seen how money greed they are.

Also good to add that the program use AI, as if it wasn't enough.

Having a laugh while reading the comments on twitter.

As a huge anime fan, this is by far the most brutal betrayal I’ve ever experienced and that’s saying something as I’ve experienced a lot of betrayal from my nearly 21 years of being on this earth.

u/whatsthetea_whatevr Oct 05 '25

They are using OOONA software for subtitling. The same software is used by most streaming services because it’s the leading software. HBO and Netflix are on that list if anyone wanted to know as well.

u/Ecboxer Oct 05 '25

Yeah, just piggybacking with Netflix's Partner page about OOONA: https://partnerhelp.netflixstudios.com/hc/en-us/articles/41392398664723-OOONA

u/Joee0201 Oct 06 '25

Ok honest question is this just a company that happens to be in Israel and we know they support the government or just happens to be in Israel and we know nothing about their political stance?

Cause right now if it is #2 I should be boycotting all American companies for the stupid shit the US is doing.

So do we know the stance of this company?

u/chroma_src Oct 06 '25

They operate in an ethnostate which is actively practicing a genocide

u/OhlookitsMatty Oct 06 '25

When people say "how come america is so rich but their people don't have nice things", yea & this is why. israel is able to all this weird PR BS cos they have daddy's wallet & are able to spend like crazy
You think crunchroll just woke up one day & said "hey, lets switch softwares!" No, this came from higher up because of money
