What Happens After You Cancel Crunchyroll?
Premium access continues until your billing date
Crunchyroll does not cut off access immediately. You keep all premium perks, including ad-free viewing, offline downloads, and the full anime library, until the end of your current billing cycle.
You drop to the free ad-supported tier
After your premium expires, your account reverts to the free tier. You can still watch a limited selection of anime with ads, but you lose access to the full premium library, simulcast episodes, and offline downloads.
No refunds for partial billing periods
Crunchyroll operates on a strict no-refund policy. Even if you cancel on the second day of your billing cycle, you will not receive a prorated refund for the remaining days.
Your watchlist and history are preserved
Crunchyroll saves your watchlist, viewing history, and account preferences after cancellation. If you resubscribe later, everything picks up where you left off.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I get a refund if I cancel Crunchyroll?
No. Crunchyroll does not issue refunds for partial billing periods. Your premium access continues until the end of the period you have already paid for, and then it reverts to the free ad-supported tier.
Can I still watch anime after canceling Crunchyroll Premium?
Yes. Crunchyroll offers a free ad-supported tier with a limited selection of anime. You lose access to premium-only content, offline downloads, and ad-free viewing, but you can still stream a subset of the library with advertisements.
Why don't I see a cancel option on the Crunchyroll website?
