Crunchyroll store moves behind a paywall, charging fans to browse the merch
Crunchyroll’s store overhaul will require a paid subscription to browse the shop, with reports of a $14 monthly access fee and Ultimate subscribers at $17.99/month receiving manga-library perks; the change aligns with Sony’s broader push away from physical goods, and is accompanied by a temporary 50% off sale and new final-sale terms as the store transitions, even as some inventory appears missing.
