Has anyone used it before?

Never bothered with CR, specially since their subbing can be lazy or bad.

Tbh I don’t think it’s really that bad, and the vast majority of people whining are people who don’t know Japanese and tend to openly admit to playing a game of telephone

It is interesting when people who know Japanese are usually nonchalant about translation accuracy, but the people who don’t know it make a huge fuss about it.

I'm not fluent, but a lot of stuff people make a huge deal about is a mountain out of a molehill.

There’s also the irony of people protesting CR for their alleged sub quality by watching the fan subs, but ironically the vast majority of the fan subs are just CR rips. So it begs the question of what the point was.

My and many others anger stems from the botched work on the symphogear series CR did some years ago, didn't translate the songs which is the point of the anime!

So they “ruined” one show and you swore off the entire service?

oh, not me, never used CR. But when you pay to get subbed anime and they fail to sub it, then why use the service?

The point still stands. It looks like you’re saying “they ruined one show, I refuse to use this service ever”.

You do realize that those anime licensing companies that make the Blu-ray’s you’re watching don’t have a perfect track record and also use CR subs right? You might as well get rid of them all with what you’re telling me.
