Crunchyroll is an American subscription video on-demand over-the-top streaming service owned by Sony Group Corporation. The service primarily distributes Japanese anime television series and films, as well as other East Asian media, with the service also hosting anime content from other providers, content add-ons, live events, music, video games and video channels. Launched in mid-2006, the service has more than 120 million registered users worldwide. Crunchyroll was previously a subsidiary of Otter Media, itself a subsidiary of AT&T's WarnerMedia, and from 2016 to 2018, the service partnered with Funimation, which Sony acquired in 2017 and would eventually merge into its brand in 2022 after Sony acquired Crunchyroll from AT&T in 2021. Crunchyroll is a member of The Association of Japanese Animations (AJA). "Crunchyroll-Hime", also known as "Hime", has been the official mascot of Crunchyroll since June 2013. Crunchyroll offers more than 1,000 anime series, more than 200 East Asian dramas in more than 18 languages, and formerly offered around 80 manga titles through its Crunchyroll Manga anthology, although the number of available titles varies by country due to licensing restrictions. Crunchyroll passed one million paid subscribers in February 2017, and has more than 17 million paid subscribers as of 2025.
