Enacting a policy of delisting items from the Crunchyroll Store. A policy known as "slow sellers" as they focus on "fast sellers." A policy that is not completely transparent...

✨So What Now? ✨

Here's a few:
Alibris
Barnes & Noble
Books-A-Million
InstockTrades
Local Comic Shop
Local library
Merry Manga Co
Amazon (But if you're boycotting them then that's valid)

Some publishers have started to sell their own books such as TokyoPop & Yen Press with pretty generous discounts

If you have not had an issue with Crunchyroll or the Crunchyroll Store up to this point?

Great! Hopefully it continues to work out for you and no issues happen to you!

Otherwise? Just take your business elsewhere that's going to treat you like a valued customer

✨Bonus Story Continued✨

Based on what's publicly available, the situation appears to have been "resolved" but now it brings up this question:

If this happened with him, what about the other publishers in the same boat? Have their issues been resolved? or are they still not being paid?

✨Bonus Story ✨

I was recently made aware of this one by my publisher contact (which surprised me on how I somehow missed it)

• Back in early 2025, Founder of Star Fruit Books Matt Haasch (Rest in Peace) reported that the Crunchyroll Store hasn't paid him for the books they purchased on wholesale

Side note: This move also potentially puts smaller publishers at risk because how are they going to have the confidence to know their products aren't going to be delisted? Or prevent new publishers from being added because "they don't have fast selling IPs"

Which speaking of Small Publishers...

Which to add, I would have rather you not make those promises if you weren't going to keep them. At this point I'm not just mad, I'm just extremely disappointed with this whole situation to be honest

• It does not generate good PR or attract more business to your store when stories like this are the ones being circulated

• It doesn't help current relationships either as now you passed the burden of incompetence to your partners instead of upholding the promises you made

If this policy change is true? This is honestly the worst ones I've seen come out of Crunchyroll

• While I understand that there are business needs? You need to start communicating these changes to the public instead of having people (like me) be the one to report on it

While everything up to this point is "alleged", it does line up with what was previously reported in the Bloomberg Article by Cecilia D'Anastasio and Takashi Mochizuki reported about the CR Store which you can view the article here:

(Tbh I don't think they would give me a statement anyways because prior to this, I was removed from their affiliate program after I reported they quietly reduced discounts on their store for paying subscribers without telling anyone & previous attempts to reach out were null)
