Looking for free Crunchyroll alternatives? Check out Samsung TV Plus

One of the world's most popular anime streaming channels, Crunchyroll, is ending its free streaming service soon. And if you were using that service, you might be disappointed and looking for free alternatives. You should check out Samsung TV Plus, which offers a good collection of anime content.

Samsung TV Plus offers free, ad-supported round-the-clock anime content, giving Crunchyroll fans a place to continue to watch their favorite anime for free. It has the Crunchyroll Channel that shows popular titles from Crunchyroll's library in an old-fashion TV (linear programming) way. It means you can't pause, skip, or go back, but it is better than not having anything to watch at all.

It also has the It's Anime! channel, powered by REMOW, which offers a mix of rare gems and rotating premieres, including Shueisha-licensed series. Its content includes My Deer Friend Nokotan, Kuroko’s Basketball, REBORN!, TOUGEN ANKI, Umamusume: Cinderella Gray, and YOUR FORMA.

Samsung TV Plus is Samsung's free and ad-supported linear and video-on-demand streaming service. It is available on all Samsung smart TVs launched since 2020 and on Galaxy phones, Smart Monitors, and tablets. It is also available on the company's Family Hub series refrigerators.
