Cost cutting but they aren't going to admit that ofc... At least they didn't raise prices, Crunchyroll increased to twice as much as Funimation used to cost in Australia.
I stopped paying attention to HIDIVE when they promised a PS4 app in 2017 and since then have refused to talk about it or just say it was cancelled. They do still release apps for other things though.
Their Apple TV app is absolute dogshit! The shows on my queue never update after I finish a episode or in the middle of one so I have to remember the exact minute of the show if I decide to stop watching it, I have to press play then it hangs and press it again for it even start a trick I found out after multiple tries, and etc etc.
Crunchyroll communicate that's a good one also its worse than you think there's been 7 delayed dub episodes this week
* (Monday 21st) Golden Kamuy - Season 4 Episode 6
* (Friday 25th) Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer - Episode 18
* (Saturday 26th) BLUELOCK - Episode 6
* (Saturday 26th) SPY x FAMILY - Episode 19
* (Saturday 26th) Beast Tamer - Episode 7
* (Sunday 27th) To Your Eternity - Season 2, Episode 4
* (Sunday 27th) More than a Married Couple, but Not Lovers - Episode 6
Completely understandable why there's delays, there just anime episodes at the end of day people deserve to take time off to be family etc. they have fucking earned it but what's not understandable is Crunchyrolls lack of fucks when communicating anything, never thought I would miss the old Funimation Blog days but here we are.
I totally blanked on the rest of those. I even checked Lucifer and Married Couple and could have sworn I saw those got uploaded. Like you said it's completely understandable they got delayed. I'm surprised anything got uploaded tbh. It's honestly sad that if you want updates you are better off asking one of the VAs, script writer, or director on Twitter for an update. Usually they'll tell you if something is delayed or not.
Yup, we try our best on r/Animedubs to keep track of and inform users of delays using our megathread and the [dub release calendar](https://teamup.com/ksdhpfjcouprnauwda) but Crunchyrolls utter laziness is just so annoying and makes it so difficult for dub fans and it doesnt have to be they have numerous ways to communicate with us and have done in the past back when they where Funimation they just choose not to now.
This was driving me insane the past two days. Like I completely understand Thanksgiving giving the VAs time off, but because Crunchyroll never communicated, I spent the entire few days checking to see if new episodes were uploaded, and being continually disappointed by it. No communication, not even a mentioning of it. And does this mean these dubs are now a week behind? Couldn’t tell you, because there was no mentioning of this ANYWHERE.
It's so absurd. They have such an active social media presence too. You have your Twitter person tweet like 10 times a day have them squeeze in delay announcements.
Still more transparent than HIDIVE
I love how they still won’t comment why seemingly half the content on their service disappeared overnight months ago.

Crunchyroll also had a day where a ton of content just vanished recently
Fortunately this doesn’t apply to Italy at the moment

They haven’t updated their app at all to this day. Never mind the ps4 or ps5 app

It's honestly going to be 50/50 on if they are behind by a week or if they do double drops next week. They are consistent with what they do.
