More and more people are fond of the world of anime and manga in Spain . The anime – or Japanese-translated animation – are animated series for both young and old. The variety is many, therefore, people can choose their favorite themes among all types of series.

In Android, we have some options to follow the best anime streaming websites but, this time we will analyze one of the applications, now multiplatform. This is Crunchyroll , an application that allows you to watch anime series on both Android and Chromecast .

What is chrunchyroll?

Crunchyroll is a platform that basically brings the anime and drama from the east to adapt them to European languages. This is achieved through written translations in the series. This means that we will see the series with Japanese audio and subtitled translations into Spanish or other languages . We can enjoy current series such as Naruto, Shokugeki no Souma or Fairy Tail among others . In addition, many other titles are in your library with enough categories to see.

The Android application is quite simple. Upon entering it, we found two tabs. Namely start and queue . The start tab is the main one in the application. In it we will find several options, including the login ones that will help us keep our account up to date. The queue shows the series that we have added to watch later (including the new chapters).

Therefore, registering is a great option to be able to enjoy the options that the application brings.

Simultaneous emissions. Watch your series an hour after leaving in Japan

One of the great advantages of Crunchyroll, is the ability to watch simultaneous series an hour after having left in Japan . If there is a series that you are watching and you can’t wait to see the last chapters, why wait? You can see it simultaneously thanks to Chrunchyroll.

To view simultaneous broadcasts, you will need to be subscribed . The subscription has a monthly price of 4.99 euros although, thanks to register, we can try 14 days of free premium .

This subscription does not see ads . It also allows us to play videos in higher quality and, of course, the simultaneous broadcast (which appears in the form of a crown in the series).

This is what they say in the Play Store of the subscription.

With a Premium subscription, you will enjoy the following features:

No advertising

Enjoy the most recent episodes 1 hour after its premiere in Japan
Access to videos in HD quality and DVD
Enjoy them on PS3, PS4, PS Vita, Wii U, Xbox 360, Apple TV, Roku and more

Take up your series once started on Chromecast

After its great catalog, there will be many series that we want to see and little time we have. Chrunchyroll allows us to retake a chapter or restart it once started thanks to its option . Therefore, we can go outside and then return to resume the series where we had left it without having to bother to find the muinuto we had stayed in.

On the other hand, we know perfectly well what series we have seen and how many chapters because they appear in an orange strip that indicates the state of reproduction .

Thanks to this, we can enjoy our series on the smartpone or tablet although we can also use Chromecast’s built-in function to play the chapters on the TV. To this, we can add the automatic playback function that will be responsible for moving on to the next chapter without us having to select it which is perfect to be able to visualize the content we want in a very comfortable way.

Is Crunchyroll a bet to watch anime on Android?

Crunchyroll is a great option to watch anime. The truth is that its interface is clear and in it we can see the information of the series or retake those we are seeing. Thanks to your subscription we can watch the series simultaneously and, for those who do not have patience (as is my case) it is a great option. The substitutions are very clear and, the perfect translations, so you will not miss a detail of what they want to say and, if you are interested in Japanese, you can learn words.

In my case, I tested the application the 14 days of testing and after the trial period I liked it and continued enjoying them . But I would only do that with the simultaneous series (if they have not finished). At the moment that the simultaneous series that interest me end, I would leave the subscription.

Another problem is that, there are some non-complete series , which put you for example chapters or seasons only and you cannot watch a series completely (I suppose for broadcasting rights).
