Crunchyroll is the West's very own T-Series: both had their origins in dealing with pirated media.

(Crunchyroll used to be an Anime pirating site, T-Series used to be Music pirates)

I remember Crunchyroll was just a cool pirate fansub site for like one summer then it went legit and has been bad ever since.

i know nothing about crunchyroll's business because i use a guy's account who i don't even know

I just use stremio with the torrents add ons (mainly torrentio) I have no idea what all these names are
