When and Why has Funimation ended?
The Funimation mission was always to provide fans with an exceptional streaming experience and access to the largest anime library in the world. On April 2, 2024, the Funimation website was closed. The collaboration between Funimation and Crunchyroll allowed us to continue delivering on that mission and bring you what you deserve: unlimited access to the absolute best anime content.
Is all the Funimation catalog available on Crunchyroll?
Great news, most of the content has been migrated already! Please keep an eye on our news page and Anime Lineup for further updates. Our team is working daily to bring more amazing content to all of our fans.
Can I transfer my Watch History and queue from Funimation to Crunchyroll?
Unfortunately, Watch History migration from Funimation to Crunchyroll is no longer available.
Please note that the ability to log in to Crunchyroll using Funimation credentials will be discontinued soon for users who have not yet used this method to access Crunchyroll.

What happened to my Funimation digital copies?
We understand that you may have concerns about your digital copies from Funimation. These digital copies were exclusive content available in DVD and Blu-ray form directly purchased from Funimation's former platform.
Please note that Crunchyroll does not currently support Funimation Digital copies, which means that access to previously available digital copies will not be available. However, we are continuously working to enhance our content offerings and provide you with an exceptional anime streaming experience. We appreciate your understanding, and encourage you to explore the extensive anime library available on Crunchyroll!
Is my Funimation subscription going to be transferred to Crunchyroll? Will the price of my subscription change?
Your Funimation subscription will be automatically transferred to Crunchyroll, and subscription fees will be reflected through the Crunchyroll billing cycle.
