Is There a Crunchyroll Price Increase in 2024?

Funimation announced that it will shut down on April 2, following the official announcement of its merger with Crunchyroll in 2022. Does this mean there will be a price increase for Crunchyroll subscribers? Here is a guide on whether there will be a price increase in 2024 for Crunchyroll, following the Crunchyroll and Funimation merger.

Is there a Crunchyroll price increase in 2024 after the Funimation merge?

As of writing, there is no Crunchyroll price increase for 2024.

Funimation customers and current Crunchyroll subscribers might be confused about whether there is a price increase or not. According to a service update from Funimation, the price for a new Crunchyroll plan will increase from $54.95 a year to $99.99 a year starting January 28, 2025. This is for Funimation subscribers who were grandfathered in with the old yearly prices, which were around $7.99 to $9.99 a month. Current Crunchyroll subscribers are unaffected.

Those with existing Funimation subscriptions will have their subscriptions moved to Crunchyroll. With that, the fees for your next billing cycle through Crunchyroll will follow Crunchyroll’s pricing. If you have a Funimation subscription but a free Crunchyroll account, your Funimation subscription will move to Crunchyroll as well.

For more information regarding moving your Funimation data to Crunchyroll and other concerns, refer to Funimation’s end of services article.
