MOD: We have received a take down request from Crunchyroll, claiming circumvent their regional pricing is against their terms of use/service.

For fans of Anime!

Also Crunchyroll Premium Fan Level Subscription: AR$99/Month (~A$1.38)

Not much to say, it's pretty straightforward. Firstly you need to get a hold of a VPN and connect to the Argentinian servers. Click on https://www.crunchyroll.com/premium_pick_plan?membership=fan and it should show these prices in AR$. Add a payment method (I've noticed Paypal doesn't really work, but adding a credit/debit card works), and purchase the membership at the AR$ prices. The VPN is only required for signing up, not for viewing. When entering your card details, select Australia, not Argentina, and enter details as usual.

If you get Unauthorised Request error, try adding your card details in your profile settings first then clicking in link above.

I have noticed that if you have a membership already, say a Fan membership, it won't upgrade. I had to create a new account and this time round selected the Mega Fan Annual and it worked using my debit card.

Original prices are:

Fan $7.99
Mega Fan $9.99 (Same as Fan with the ability to stream on 4 simultaneous devices instead of just one, and ability to download for offline viewing on mobile apps)
Annual Mega Fan $99.99

Thanks to u/GoonSack69 posting this in the comments a while back, and thought it deserved its own deal.

As above, if you're going to sign up, I'd recommend the yearly, as upgrading the account seems to be problematic unless you create a new account. If you’ve had premium before, you may get a payment error. Create a new account to solve the error.

      How do you skip the trial with the new account? I got "Failed to check out. Please look over your credit card info and resubmit."

      and it shows:

        After landing on the page under the monthly sub option its says 'Looking for a different subscription plan? Go back.'

        I tapped on Go back. button just to browse and it showed all the plans..

        I saw this and tapped on skip free trial.. And it charged me straight away for the year.. Hope it helps..

        • vitawheat on 04/10/2021 - 21:13

          This needs to be added to the description. The link should update to this page and emphasis the "Skip free trial"

        Click on the link in this post again and your CC info should appear (as although it says it fails, it still saves it on your profile), and select the card and process. Should work

  • hate on 04/10/2021 - 15:51

    I prefer torrenting over streaming, but this would be great for early access to seasonals.

    Any differences with Funimation? I got that subs and Fun brought crunchyroll

    • Faris on 04/10/2021 - 16:31

      I think CR has less content.

    • Big Sexy Unit on 04/10/2021 - 17:57

      Can use JustWatch and select both sites for a full library. I'll hook ya with the counts for both/

      Funimation: 679 TV Shows, 49 Movies
      CrunchyRoll: 797 TV Shows, 0 Movies

      • Zachary on 05/10/2021 - 12:18

        sign up, then download all 797 shows and then cancel your membership. Now can watch those downloaded 797 shows whenever you please, though I guess if anything new comes out, you obviously will need to do it again or maybe actually pay for the membership to download the videos….

    • kandaichus on 04/10/2021 - 19:06

      Aside from the user interface (UI) of their libraries and video players, there's a noticeable difference in the content available on each.
      Funimation will have some shows that Crunchyroll won't, and vice versa.
      I have Funimation already, but at this deal's price, I'll definitely enjoy having both and their respective libraries.

      If it helps, you can always start a trial for both or either of them, and search to see which of the platforms host any specific anime, movies or series you want to watch :)

  • lothus777 on 04/10/2021 - 16:41

    Used paypal but haven't gotten charged

    • Psygnosis on 04/10/2021 - 20:12

      You’re probably on the two week trial first, then you’ll get charged. Check your account settings, does it show you’re on premium, and with AR$ currency?

      • lothus777 on 05/10/2021 - 08:45

        shows my next billing date is 3 oct 2022 AR$ 1,250.00 :/

    • vitawheat on 04/10/2021 - 21:16

      If you go back to the "All Plans" page, you can skip the free trial and sign up for the annual cost straight away. You'll have to create another account. Otherwise wait for the free trial to end and hope it still works.

      • sh4hp on 10/10/2021 - 14:16

        So I have to skip the trial for this to work?

        • vitawheat on 10/10/2021 - 17:56

          If you skip the free trial, it is a guarantee that the annual plan will start and the renewal date will be 2022. Whereas I am not sure if the pricing will still be the same or what will happen after the free trial.

    I'm getting a "A system error occurred. Please contact us for help." When creating a new account using Nordvpn. Any ideas?

    • Psygnosis on 04/10/2021 - 20:06

      Maybe try not using a VPN while creating an account, and only turn it on after having added your card details and are ready to buy from the link above.

    • howlongxiaolong on 04/10/2021 - 20:40

      same for me, using NordVPN it keeps crapping out with the captcha
      tried also logging in without vpn first, but the session still keeps the aus location

      • Psygnosis on 04/10/2021 - 20:47

        Give Tunnelbear free a go. I’ve noticed, even with VPN, it doesn’t always show the AR$ price, but keep refreshing and it should work in time.

        • howlongxiaolong on 04/10/2021 - 22:19

          Tunnelbear worked! cheers

        • tkboi on 04/10/2021 - 22:26

    Would these guys still be around in a years time? App would likely be merged into Funimation app.

    • Psygnosis on 04/10/2021 - 20:08

      I assume they’d figure out a way to integrate and take CR members over, or maybe they’d keep it seperate. Can you imagine how many people who are on the annual membership and the outcry that would come out if they don’t actually carry people over?

  • MagicTsukai on 04/10/2021 - 20:13

    Although the deal is very good.
    I still don't think I can get value out of it when I have adblock.
    Could be good for those watching on mobile devices.

    • Psygnosis on 04/10/2021 - 20:16

      If you watch on the computer, I guess not, but I like watching on the go, and on my Apple TV and Xbox, so it’s more about convenience for me.

      You also get access to Crunchyroll Manga if that’s your thing (with Megafan)

    • Ventak on 04/10/2021 - 21:03

      Yeah for PC anime viewers, the only major thing is you get to watch day 1 releases instead of waiting a week (not that big a deal). Offline viewing on phones is nice though (did that with AnimeLab - RIP).
