[anime] so. Looks like Sony is phasing out Funimation.

Starting today all Funimation titles start migrating to Crunchyroll.
Ken
Starting next season all acquisitions are on Crunchyroll.
Ken
It makes sense because CR has more traffic, is international, and has a frankly much better website and functioning apps.
danael
does cr have 2fa yet
Ken
And yeah I know big corporate mergers are bad and I agree but the boat sailed on this one a long time ago and I spent enough time grumbling about it then.

I've never used Funi but if Crunchyroll's got the more functional apps, my gosh...
RobotApocalypse
huh. well considering how bad the funi app is for watching shows i guess this isn't a loss really
Ken
danael : I am. Not sure to be honest.
Ken
danael
worth checkin out i guess
Quinn Angstrom
one less sub to pay, for me
Ken
What’s funny for me is that shows which were in my watchlist from many years ago n their previous collaboration all of a sudden reappeared like they never left.
Quinn Angstrom
my main beef with crunchyroll is the thing it does where each dub counts as a different season, in random order
Quinn Angstrom
finding new episodes of demon slayer is a nightmare
Ken
Oh that’s a pain on the TV apps when the shows title is long.
Ken
So I get that
Ken
Sadly Funimation’s drop down menu of choosing the language often just didn’t work also, for me.
Quinn Angstrom
oh yeah, we were watching paranoia agent the other day and some episodes are deadass just
Quinn Angstrom
option 1: english dubs with dub subtitles
Quinn Angstrom
option 2: english dub with JP track subtitles
Ken
Weirdly at least Cowboy Bebop has no Japanese language track at all from shows that migrated today. I wonder what’s up with that.
Quinn Angstrom
then the next episode had the japanese language track but only had subs for it in spanish and portuguese
Ken
This does not appear to be the norm across other shows brought over.
Ken
...also that sounds like a nightmare but exactly what I expect from their site
Ken
This sort of simplifies questions season to season of where shows are going though, I guess.

As it’s now basically just, “is it CR or Netflix”
Haze Arquebus
i'm just having a good laugh over it
Haze Arquebus
i figured funi's app might eventually go bust but i never thought they'd come crawling back to crunchyroll
Ken
That’s what happens when a company buys two competing services where one is miles away better
Haze Arquebus
oh right my brain glazed over the "sony is consolidating" part, whoops
