Crunchyroll Cuts Fan to $1.99 as Ani-May Hits Twitch Tv

Crunchyroll is using twitch tv to push three months of discounted anime subscriptions, with Fan at $1.99 per month and Mega Fan at $2.99 per month through Thursday, May 21. The promotion is open to new and returning members in more than 35 countries, including the United States, while the top-tier Ultimate Fan plan sits outside the deal.

Fan and Mega Fan prices

The Fan plan normally costs $9.99 per month, so the Ani-May rate cuts the entry price by 80% for three months. That tier includes ad-free anime viewing, offline viewing, and 5% off select products in Crunchyroll's store, making it the cheapest paid route for members who want the basics without the full bundle.

Mega Fan drops from its regular $13.99 monthly price to $2.99 for the same three-month window. It adds streaming on four devices at a time, 10-15% off select store merchandise, free shipping on select orders, access to the Game Vault, and early access to deals, so the promotion pulls more value into the mid-tier plan at a sharply lower entry cost.

Ani-May discounts widen

Crunchyroll is packaging the offer as part of Ani-May, and that matters because the platform is not just discounting a subscription line; it is using the month to move price-sensitive viewers into paid tiers before the deadline. New releases such as Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc, Witch Hat Atelier, and Daemons of the Shadow Realm sit alongside Crunchyroll Anime Awards standouts including Solo Leveling, Apothecary Diaries, My Hero Academia, and SPY X FAMILY in the same promotion window.

For viewers deciding whether to upgrade, the practical read is simple: the Fan deal gives the lowest-cost way into ad-free streaming, while Mega Fan is the better fit if multiple devices, store discounts, and Game Vault access matter more than a slightly higher monthly bill after the three months end. The offer disappears after May 21, and the Ultimate Fan plan remains a separate $17.99-a-month option with a seven-day free trial rather than a discounted Ani-May price.
