What to look for with Crunchyroll deals
Annual payments offer the best savings
As with many streaming services, if you know you’re in it for the long haul, skipping the monthly bill is the best way to save. Paying upfront for a full year of Crunchyroll costs about 16% less than paying month-by-month. Real anime heads who want to watch long-running series or multiple seasonal slates have no reason not to snag savings by paying for the yearly sub, IMO.
Crunchyroll offers some gaming and merch perks, too
Although some Crunchyroll games are available to all subscribers, if you upgrade to the Mega or Ultimate Fan tiers, you’ll get access to the Crunchyroll Game Vault, which is full of exclusive games only available to these higher tiers. With Ultimate Fan, you’ll get access to Crunchyroll’s manga library, too.
And if you’re an avid collector of figures, apparel, or physical manga, the discounts on Crunchyroll Store products (and free shipping with certain tiers) can make your premium Crunchyroll sub extra worth it.
Keep offline viewing in mind
If you catch up on your anime backlog during your morning commute or while traveling, pay attention to the Crunchyroll package deets. Offline downloading is supported across all three tiers (score!), but the base Fan plan caps sync to one device at a time. Upgrading to a higher plan will give you unlimited offline downloads across multiple mobile devices.
