Will Sony buy Crunchyroll?
The Chunchyroll platform is a streaming service with a focus on anime, which is something that could come in handy for Sony! Being a Japanese giant, whose Japan is world famous for the amazing production and patent of anime, it would be very handy if Sony buys Crunchryroll, which is also world famous for streaming anime legally.
The streaming platform Crunchyroll was founded in 2006, and according to information provided by it, it already has more than 70 million non-paying subscribers and about 3 million paid subscribers. In 2018, the company AT&T joined the service that finally gave more strength to the platform.
Sony and crunchyroll!
If Sony buys the rights to the Crunchyroll platform, it will in a way be able to almost control the most popular anime streaming platforms in the world. The Japanese company has been looking to expand its growth in the sector since 2019, including exponential growth in the consumption of this type of work.
However, some fans are not very happy with this possible acquisition. This is due to the fact that many users and subscribers of Chrunch claim that they have a certain fear that Sony might do something harmful, as it would have a much larger 'slice' of this market.

The options are many, it is worth from person to person to have their own opinion on the subject. So, leave your opinion on what you think if Sony happens to buy Crunchyroll and if it would improve its anime catalog even more, and who knows if it gets as big as the funimation?
