TL;DR

  • Crunchyroll has reportedly announced that it will end its free, ad-supported streaming plan.
  • The free tier will apparently be discontinued on December 31, 2025.
  • This comes after services like Hulu and Peacock ended their own free plans in recent years.

Hulu and Peacock both discontinued their free, ad-supported plans in recent years. Unfortunately, we can add another streaming service to the list of companies that have ditched their free plans.
