If the seasonal anime is not made by a specific streaming service, then it's bound to end up on Crunchyroll.
And the year 2024 has started with a bang for this platform and provided us with lots of new shows that we can enjoy almost anywhere in the world.
Crunchyroll has a pretty fun history: what started as a pirate site then began licensing some of the works while still providing illegal download links and only after that became fully legal, with some help from Sony (that acquired the platform) and, later, Aniplex.
Now Crunchyroll has become almost a monopoly in the world of non-Japanese anime lovers, a place that we automatically turn to when we want to watch something. Thankfully, its catalog is huge enough and gets updated almost simultaneously with the new releases from Japan, so we're never going to run out of the things to put on and indulge in.
This February gave us access not only to the new seasons of the shows that we were already engaged in — Crunchyroll also licensed Studio Bones' anniversary series Metallic Rouge and the anime adaptation of the best-selling manhwa Solo Leveling, both of which were extremely entertaining to follow.
