About Crunchyroll Guide 2026
Our Story
Crunchyroll Guide was born from a simple frustration: back in 2018, we found ourselves constantly searching through scattered forums and outdated articles to answer basic questions about Crunchyroll. How much does premium cost? What's the difference between plans? Can I use a VPN without getting banned?
After years of being Crunchyroll subscribers ourselves, navigating VPN restrictions during travels, helping friends choose the right plan, and tracking every seasonal anime lineup, we decided it was time to create the comprehensive resource we wished existed.
Today, Crunchyroll Guide has helped thousands of anime fans worldwide discover new series, troubleshoot technical issues, and make informed decisions about their anime streaming subscriptions. We don't just report information - we live it.
