# CrunchyRoll.js
|
|
|
|
*CrunchyRoll.js* is capable of downloading *anime* episodes from the popular
|
|
*CrunchyRoll* streaming service. An episode is stored in the original video format
|
|
(often H.264 in a MP4 container) and the configured subtitle format (ASS or
|
|
SRT).The two output files are then merged into a single MKV file.
|
|
|
|
## Motivation
|
|
|
|
*CrunchyRoll* has been providing an amazing streaming service and offers the
|
|
best way to enjoy *anime* in a *convenient* and *legal* way. As a streaming
|
|
service, video files cannot be downloaded and watched offline. Understandable
|
|
from a business perspective and considering possible contract implications, but
|
|
annoying for users. This application enables episodes to be downloaded for
|
|
offline convenience. Please do not abuse this application; download episodes for
|
|
**personal use** and **delete them** if you do not have an active premium
|
|
account. Continue to support *CrunchyRoll*; without our financial backing their
|
|
service cannot exist!
|
|
|
|
## Legal Warning
|
|
|
|
This application is not endorsed or affliated with *CrunchyRoll*. The usage of
|
|
this application enables episodes to be downloaded for offline convenience which
|
|
may be forbidden by law in your country. Usage of this application may also
|
|
cause a violation of the agreed *Terms of Service* between you and the stream
|
|
provider. A tool is not responsible for your actions; please make an informed
|
|
decision prior to using this application.
