If you’re struggling to find your next binge-watch, you can’t go wrong with anime. For the holidays, you can save on a Crunchyroll subscription, giving you access to its vast library of anime series to watch. Through December 29, you can sign up for an annual Fan subscription for $67, down from the usual $80, or a Mega Fan subscription for $100, down from $120.
While both the Fan and Mega Fan plans are ad-free, you do get some different benefits depending on which you decide to pay for. Fan subscribers get full access to Crunchyroll’s library, new episodes “shortly after they air in Japan” and five percent off select purchases in the Crunchyroll Store. Mega Fan subscribers get all those benefits, plus the ability to stream on four devices at the same time, download HD quality episodes and movies to view offline, play games from the Crunchyroll Game Vault and receive 10 percent off select products in the Crunchyroll Store.

A year of Crunchyroll’s Fan subscription is $13 off through December 29.

Notably missing from either subscription is access to Crunchyroll’s new Manga service, but unless you’re specifically looking for reading material, you’ll get plenty of entertainment out of Crunchyroll’s video library. Outside of Netflix, which produces and licenses its own growing collection of anime, Crunchyroll is the de facto place to watch Japanese animation in the US. You’ll find long-running series like One Piece and newer hits like Spy X Family, alongside hundreds of more niche series.
Crunchyroll has its issues, of course. Since the streaming service was acquired by Sony, it’s been particularly interested in using generative AI to subtitle shows, which has already produced poor results. It’s hard to beat Crunchyroll’s library, though, and for as little as $65, you’ll get more than your money’s worth.
