More ways to save at Crunchyroll

• Crunchyroll runs sales during major anime premieres, seasonal events, and its annual Ani-May event each May. During Ani-May, new and returning eligible subscribers can get the Fan plan for $1.99/month or the Mega Fan for $2.99/month for the first three months through Amazon Prime Video channels.
• Crunchyroll offers a 7-day free trial on any of its three premium plans for new users. The trial gives full access to ad-free streaming, simulcast episodes, and offline downloads depending on the plan tier you choose. Cancel before day seven to avoid being charged; note that canceling mid-trial ends access immediately rather than at the trial expiry date.
• Sometimes, Crunchyroll partners with other platforms, like Funimation or VRV, to offer bundle subscriptions. If you’re a fan of multiple streaming services, these bundles can save you money compared to subscribing separately.
• Subscribing to an annual plan saves roughly 16% compared to monthly billing. The Fan annual plan runs $66.99 per year, which works out to about $5.58/month. Annual plans are available for all three tiers.
• Premium membership tiers include ongoing store perks at the Crunchyroll Store. Fan members get a 5% discount on products, Mega Fan members get 10% off and free US shipping on orders over $50, and Ultimate Fan members get 15% off all products with free US shipping on all orders. Standard free US shipping for non-members requires a $75 minimum order.
• Sometimes, Crunchyroll partners with other platforms, like Amazon Prime Video or Walmart Plus, to offer bundle subscriptions or extended free trials for new subscribers. Check Crunchyroll's official Limited-Time Offers page and your existing subscription platforms for active partner deals.

About Crunchyroll

Crunchyroll is a subscription streaming service specializing in anime, manga, and Asian dramas, founded in 2006 and headquartered in San Francisco. Sony acquired Crunchyroll in 2021 for $1.175 billion, then merged it with Funimation, its existing anime subsidiary. Funimation shut down as a standalone platform on April 2, 2024, and its full library, including classic English dubs for Dragon Ball Z, My Hero Academia, and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, was folded into Crunchyroll. The combined catalog gives Crunchyroll one of the largest English-language anime libraries available, with over 1,000 titles, 40,000+ episodes, and simulcast access to new Japanese episodes typically within one hour of broadcast. The service is available in over 200 countries.

Netflix often features exclusive anime productions, while Hulu provides a broad library including simulcasts. GrabOn offers both Netflix coupons and Hulu promo codes that help you save more on your plans and subscriptions.
