What anime is that? Pretty sure I’ve watched, but can not remember
Looks like Bodacious Space Pirates.
Fun fact - I visited Tokyo years ago when I had a friend living over there teaching English as part of the JET program. When I visited Ueno Park, there was a group of cosplayers in the park all in costumes from this show doing a photoshoot. I had no idea what show it was at the time, but figured it out years later when I came across a random image in a thread like this one and was able to piece it together.
Mouretsu Pirates, AKA Bodacious Space Pirates, I think.
Probably shouldn't have sold out to Sony and sold my data like twice and then given away data in obviously avoidable breaches.
I cancelled my subscription when they went to Israeli ai subbing tools. Sucks since I would like to watch lots of their shows
Shouldn't have fucked your customer base then
That's the fucked-up thing, though. Their subscriber count has almost doubled since 2024—yet they are hemorrhaging money like this. Smells like hookers and blow in here.
100% agreed here. It’s their own fault for being too greedy.
Crunchyroll is a scourge on the Anime industry. The earlier it falls, better services can take its place.
The link gives me a 404.
don't see the article anywhere on the site
I guess it must've gotten taken down.
