Crunchyroll, LLC is an American entertainment company. It currently operates the anime-focused eponymous over-the-top subscription video on-demand streaming service. The company was founded as Funimation in May 1994 by Gen Fukunaga and his wife Cindy in Silicon Valley, with funding by Daniel Cocanougher and his family, who became investors in the company. The company then relocated to the Dallas–Fort Worth metropolitan area, first to North Richland Hills, then Flower Mound and later Coppell. Funimation was acquired by Navarre Corporation in May 2005; in April 2011, Navarre sold Funimation to a group of investors that included Fukunaga for $24 million. The company was acquired by Sony Pictures Television in 2017 and rebranded to Crunchyroll, LLC in March 2022 after acquiring the eponymous streaming service in August 2021. The company also releases titles on home video either directly (with distribution by Sony Pictures Home Entertainment since 2024) or by having select anime titles released through its distribution partners (Sentai Filmworks, Viz Media, Discotek Media, Aniplex of America (Crunchyroll's corporate sibling) and United Kingdom's Anime Limited).
