    The video is basically “wow anime is really popular right now” rather than a history of how Crunchy Roll became an animal streaming empire.

    I remember when Crunchyroll was a pirate site just like all the others. This was many many years ago now. Kinda reminds me of the start of Hollywood in a way.

      It even still has some old fansubbed episodes from the pirate era. For example, if you look at the early Gintama episodes on CR, they’re actually subbed by Rumbel Subs.
