deafmic Follow Honestly the fact that Crunchyroll intentionally removed all closed captioning options for their tv app should be f------ criminal. You can only get subtitles if you watch the subbed Japanese version. If you watch dubbed anime and you're Deaf or HOH, Crunchyroll intentionally removed all closed captioning support. There is no work around. deafmic Follow asharka · 2y There isn't any closed captioning on Crunchyroll. You can only get subtitles with Japanese language audio. To quote a staff member's post a while ago in the forums over there: "We are an entertainment service, not a language learning service". I'm not kidding when I say that this should be f------ illegal. the-final-sif Follow So, I did a bit of research, and from what I can tell this is actually illegal. Crunchyroll is a streaming service, and closed captions for all video content have been upheld as a requirement of the ADA. The courts determined this back in 2012 with Netflix, when they got sued by NAD and as a result had to add closed captioning for all their programs. It looks like if people would like to file a complaint about this lack of accessibility, they can do so with the FCC here: https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov/hc/en-us/requests/new? ticket_form_id=36040 There's an option for "Lack of closed captioning over the internet", so you would want to select that and then explain the issue.

Award winning anime director (from Net-juu no Susume) blows the whistle on Crunchyroll's “charity fraud" 柳沼和良 @yaginuma_san Follow 【日本のアニメ関係者、ファン絶対読んで!】海外のアニメファンの方が、西洋のアニメ配信を一手に引き受けているCrunchyroll (クランチロール)を問題にしています。 DBFOR @yaginuma_san · Aug 30 アニメ配信サイトはいくつかあり、CRIに作品がまとまって視聴者は見やすくなったというのは有るのだが。 t7 66 O 58 0:2¥0R @yaginuma san · Aug 30 CRは大問題が有る。。しかし、海外の人の話を聞いていたら、日本側も変であります。 People involved in the anime industry and fans, please read! The foreign anime community is having a problem with anime-streaming website Crunchyroll. ※深い政治的な話はいきなり理解無理だから、アニメを作るにとに直接ありそうな部分を抜粋。 O 1 ta 66 O 57 H0ZIOR @yaginuma_san · Aug 30 日本のアニメの予算がハリウッドより通かに低いのは、日本人は1億人。米国は3億で、そして世界中で商売になるからですが。海外の人達がこれだけ見るようになった今現在、海外の人達も大きなお金を出してくれています。 Because it is complicated, I won't delve right into the politics of things. I'll explain the direct effects on the anime making process. 9:19 AM - 30 Aug 2018 Crunchyroll makes anywhere from $30,000 to $200,000 per anime title. Crunchyroll expanded its demographics by telling consumers that they will give the money they profit to poor anime companies. 1,355 Retweets 1,173 Likes crunchyroll 話の条件、定義が既に変わっています。 O 13 t7 1.4K O 1.2K ta 92 O 81 ... This is obviously NOT the case! 0:ZIOR @yaginuma_san · Aug 30 CR(クランチロールの略)は、日本のアニメタイトルー本に付き、300~2000万の収入があります。CRIは貧乏なアニメ会社ににのお金を贈ります、と言って、お客を沢山集めました。 10ZIOR @yaginuma_san Aug 30 アニメ制作会社には基本DVDの売上が、作品の制作費を上回った場合に発生する。アニメで売れているのはグッズなど他の物という、いつもの話がありますが。海外のアニメファンには、知ったこっちゃないのです。アニメを作ってくれた人に、お金を手渡したいのです! Currently anime aired on TV is made at around $120-150,000, there is multiple problems with topping that with another $30,000 to $200,000. Note: $30,000 is bare minimum, $200,000 is for popular titles. ta 92 O 84 If CR was paying money, it would be for the streaming rights. In Japan there is Kadokawa, Shogakukan, Bandai Namco, Toei holds those powers, and there is no way they'd let them stream without a contract. 0ZOR @yaginuma_san · Aug 30 アニメ配信サイトはいくつかあり、CRIに作品がまとまって視聴者は見やすくなったというのは有るのだが。 0ZFOR @yaginuma_san · Aug 30 みんな、よく考えてくれ。今、知っている情報まとめてみた。、2エでムついい場日、日しIG、Xに1度に付 -へついいいばさいと思われる。日本動画教会にはカドカワ、小学館、バンダイナムユ、東映などの辞々たる力のある企業があり、未契約で配信させているなんてことは絶対ありえない。 I CR was paying for the streaming rights to those companies it might be legal. But Crunchyroll customers are told that the money is going to the anime creators! As a tip for the anime that they enjoyed watching! t7 66 O 58 H0ZOR @yaginuma_san · Aug 30 CRIは大問題が有る。しかし、海外の人の話を聞いていたら、日本側も変であります。 Plus, the Crunchyroll subtitles are horrible to the point of changing the message. In the past avid anime fans made amazing fansubs for free, but Crunchyroll is making poor quality subs even with huge money. ta 100 O 83 0ZFOR @yaginuma_san · Aug 30 CRが、お金を払っていた場合、配信放送の権利を持つ所に入っていれば、法律上は問題ないのかも知れない。しかし、CRIに沢山の海外のアニメファンが沢山集まった理由は、アニメ制作会社、その中のアニメの作り手の人達に、楽しませてくれたお礼のお金が入る、それだけである! Q 1 ta 66 O 57 There is conflict for other alternatives, however with CR, money will not go to the creators. Subtitiles is just PR. Clearly, Crunchyroll is just killing off and demonizing competitors so they can hog all the money. 0BIOR @yaginuma_san · Aug 30 日本のアニメの予算がハリウッドより通かに低いのは、日本人は1億人。米国は3億で、そして世界中で商売になるからですが。海外の人達がこれだけ見るようになった今現在、海外の人達も大きなお金を出してくれています。 There are multiple streaming website other than Crunchyroll, but Crunchyroll has the most titles and sure, anime is now easier to access. ta 100 O 83 However CR has a huge problem. Hearing the foreigners stories, there is also a problem going on in Japan. 話の条件、定義が既に変わっています。 t7 92 O 81 :ZF0R @yaginuma_san · Aug 30 CRが作ろうとしたアニメのPR動画があって、それが移民推進のプロパガンダであり、大きな国を超えた政治の暗部にもつながるのです。西洋は移民問題で凄く困っており。日本はまだ殆どの人が気づかない。そっちの方の説明もしたいのだが…。 DZOR @yaginuma_san · Aug 30 みんな、よく考えてくれ。今、知っている情報まとめてみた。 The reason Japanese anime budget is way lower than Hollywood is because Japan only has a one hundred million, while America has three hundred million and the entire world as the market. However in modern times anime has grown and now foreigners also contribute a significant amount for the anime industry. と思われる。日本動画教会にはカドカワ、小学館、バンダイナムユ、東映などの辞々たる力のある企業があり、未契約で配信させているなんてことは絶対ありえない。 The conditions have changed. ta 100 O 83 Anime makes a profit when the total DVD sales make more than the production costs. There is also stuff on the side such as merchandise, but that's irrelevant for foreign consumers because they want to give the creators the money! 10:ZFOR @yaginuma_san · Aug 30 CRが、お金を払っていた場合、配信放送の権利を持つ所に入っていれば、法律上は問題ないのかも知れない。しかし、CRIに沢山の海外のアニメファンが沢山集まった理由は、アニメ制作会社、その中のアニメの作作り手の人達に、楽しませてくれたお礼のお金が入る、それだけである! br5if) @21karaagebo · Aug 30 日本に移民を入れるのは更なる奴隷制度に繋がって賃金が安くなる悪循環ですからね。 I have summarized what I know. 日本は島国だから移民問題は起きにくい国ですが、国を挙げて結麗事並べてそれをやろうとしているのは怪しいですね。 t7 100 O 83 Plus this ->RT: Crunchyroll lied to its customers that they will support foreign customers, and used that profit to make their own series. 0ZFOR @yaginuma_san Aug 30 それブラス、CRのネット配信の字幕は酷すぎて話が崩壊レベル。今までの違法配信時時代に、有志のアニメファン達が付けていた字幕の方が遥かに良い。大きな収入があるのに字幕は前壊、日本のアニメの作り手には金を払わん… Crunchyroll's inner workings, this is important: link 日本全体のアニメ業界化が進んでる O 2 ta 105 O 86 0ZFOR @yaginuma san Aug 30 CR以外の配信サイトでやってはと誘論が有るみたいだ。しかし、CRIは、日本のクリェイターにはそれではお金が入りません字幕なんてものはそんな物とPR. 違法サイトを根絶した企業と自社を宣伝。 …これ、自分たちで利益を独占したいだけだよね? :ZFOR @yaginuma_san · Aug 30 アニメの大手制作会社の中には、移民推進の会社があります。右も左も分からない、海外の人にいきなり各話制作やらせます。ジャニカ問題でよく出てきた名前の社長さんが居る会社… Does this problem boil down to the fact that 独占企業化。 Crunchyroll has basically commited a type of charity fraud? t3 88 O 75 O 1 7 5 Crunchyroll has also DZFOR @yaginuma_san · Aug 30 アニメ配信サイトはいくつかあり、CRIに作品がまとまって視聴者は見やすくなったというのは有るのだが。 decided to use the customers' money to make left-wing propaganda CRUNCHYROLL paTh(0-y-) @Daisuke_Yasuda Aug 30 Replying to @yaginuma_san そもそも元達法サイトのクランチが始めるまで、無料でSD見れて、800円で放送波より高画質なアニ同日配信されるサービス無かったし、変に利権掲げて販路改革してに HIGH GUARDIAN SPICE PROMOTING FEMINIST AGENDA
