I purchased the all acces membership a day ago with the 2 weeks free trial but so far I don't see any changes in the shows . Basically all the shows are still the same as It was before I purchased the all access plan. Out of curiosity I checked the plan comparison page to see if I did a mistake in purchasing then I noticed it says that I am Ineligible for the trial. Does that mean I have to wait for the trial to end?

Same compared to the trial, or the same compared to the free membership?

The amount of shows won't change (except for a couple exceptions, like Fairy Tail which is premium only). What changes is the amount of episodes (Some shows, like Bleach, have certain episodes only available for premium users), early access to simulcast episodes (free members have to wait a week), no advertisements, HD video, and a few other things.

If you purchased a membership, that replaces the trial membership. What you should have done is used the free trial for the entire two weeks, and then purchased a membership when the trial expired.

Ohhh ok. Im really new to crunchyroll so still confused on some stuff. I just realized that there's region lock for some shows that's why i don't have sword art online on my account. . I am currently in Kuwait and there are a lot of shows that are not licensed for the country so I was wondering when I get back to my home country Malaysia will shows like sword art online appear in the crunchyroll app or will it also be locked?

Sword Art Online is available in America (North, Central and South), UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. Sorry, don't see Malaysia on the list.

There are region restrictions because this is a legal streaming site, so they must obtain rights to stream the shows and cannot always get those rights in every country.

If you look at the list of anime it will only show those that are available in your region. Also, when they add a new show they will specify what regions it will be available in on the Site News post about that show.
