As we all know, Crunchyroll is the world’s top anime streaming platform. It offers the world’s largest anime collection and a wide variety of features and content. Despite its global availability, Crunchyroll automatically sets English as the default language for subtitles. However, it allows you to change the subtitle language as per your wish. So, in this article, we explain how you can change the language on Crunchyroll.
Updating the display language on Crunchyroll does not automatically change your audio and subtitle language, as seen on other streaming platforms like Netflix. You will have to change the subtitle language individually. Below, we have compiled a step-by-step guide to help you change the Crunchyroll subtitle language on Android, iOS, TVs, and desktop computers. That said, let’s dive in:
