Crunchyroll will soon have new ways for anime fans to experience its constantly expanding library, with the addition of new membership tiers. Combined with additional platform features—including offline viewing—it will soon be even easier to enjoy anime anywhere and at any time. 

Here's a breakdown of the new membership tiers:

Free

Crunchyroll will continue to be available for free with ad-supported streaming access. New simulcast episodes will be available for free users one week after the initial premiere. 

Those who sign up for a Premium membership can now choose from different tiers, including:

Fan - $7.99/month

Enjoy an ad-free experience, with full access to Crunchyroll's library along of over 1,000 titles and 30,000 episodes, including simulcast series that premiere day and date with Japan. You'll also be able to access Crunchyroll's library of digital manga.

Mega Fan - $9.99/month

In addition to all the above perks—ad-free viewing, full access to library and simulcast shows, and  access to digital manga—the Mega Fan tier introduces offline viewing and access to four concurrent streams. Members will also receive a special benefit for the Crunchyroll Store that provides $15 off a purchase of $100 every three months.

Ultimate Fan - $14.99/month

Sign up for the Ultimate Fan tier and you'll get the biggest package of features yet: Ad-free viewing, full access to Crunchyroll's library and simulcast titles, access to Crunchyroll's digital manga library, offline viewing, and access to six concurrent streams. You'll also receive an annual Ultimate Fan member swag bag, member-only access to the purchase of exclusive merch, and a special benefit for the Crunchyroll Store that provides $25 off a purchase of $100 every three months.

If you're all signed up and don't see the new features yet, hang tight! Updates will be rolling out to the Crunchyroll Android and iOS apps this week, and all new benefits should be available to fans around the globe in early September.
