Crunchyroll and Telus have announced a partnership allowing anime fans in Canada to sign up for the streaming platform from their Telus account. Telus is the first Canadian provider to allow its subscribers to add Crunchyroll as an add-on. Telus is also bringing the anime streaming platform to its sub-brand, Koodo, expanding access to anime to even more customers across Canada.
Notably, Crunchyroll is not part of Telus’ Stream+ bundle.
Crunchyroll offers hit series like Solo Leveling’s second season, Arise from the Shadow (which you can learn more about from my interview with Aleks Le), and some of my favourite shows, including Jujustu Kaisen, Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End and Blue Lock. You’ll also get access to new series like The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World and Dragon Ball Daima.
Crunchyroll is also available on iOS, Android, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, Android TV, Chromecast, Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV and more.
In Canada, Crunchyroll offers three subscription tiers: ‘Fan,’ ‘Mega Fan one-month subscription,’ and ‘Mega Fan 12-month subscription’ for $9.99, $12.49, and $124.99, respectively. Crunchyroll also offers a 14-day free trial with unlimited anime, no ads, and new episodes as early as one hour after release in Japan. Users can also create a free account on Crunchyroll and stream with ads, though the free tier doesn’t offer the platform’s complete catalogue.
At the time of writing, Telus’ website only listed the Mega Fan one-month subscription option.
