Crunchyroll has a wide variety of anime shows and movies available to stream. As Crunchyroll doesn't have a watch-party feature, you can use Discord to share your screen with your friends. You'll just need to load the movie or show in a browser and add it to Discord as a game. Make sure to stay updated on Crunchyroll's Terms of Service to ensure you're not violating any copyright agreements. This wikiHow will show you how to stream Crunchyroll on Discord using your Windows or Mac computer.

  • Open Crunchyroll in a web browser, then add the browser as a game to your Discord. Stream your browser to your server, and then play the video.
  • Friends can watch your stream using Discord on desktop or mobile.
