    Are they a monopoly because of shitty business tactics (notwithstanding any shitty practices they do because they are a monopoly), or just because no other services outside of Japan wants anything to do with anime?

    Who do I actually have to blame for Crunchyroll being literally the only streaming service that is serious about anime?

      Cr bought Funimation, Sony bought Cr, then Sony bought Rightstuf.

      There’s a few other anime localizers left, but they aren’t big or have good streaming libraries.
