Crunchyroll and Delta Airlines join forces for anime streaming in the above the clouds, your next flight just got a whole lot more exciting. Crunchyroll, the go-to hub for all things anime with a massive library spanning thousands of episodes, has inked a deal with Delta Airlines to roll out its content on flights across the U.S. and beyond. This means passengers on Delta’s whopping fleet can dive into hit series like Naruto and Naruto Shippuden while soaring through the skies, marking a big win for anime’s mainstream push. With Delta operating thousands of daily flights to over 50 countries, this collab could introduce anime to travelers who’ve never dipped their toes in before.
Why This Crunchyroll-Delta Partnership is a Game-Changer for Anime Lovers
- Huge Library at 30,000 Feet: Forget scrolling through the same old movies—Crunchyroll’s catalog packs over 50,000 episodes and films, letting you binge fresh hits or classics mid-flight without needing your own subscription upfront.
- Exclusive Perks for Frequent Flyers: SkyMiles folks score that free trial via Wi-Fi, turning layovers or long hauls into prime viewing time and potentially hooking new fans to Arcs they have to finish before they even land.
- Anime’s Mainstream Takeoff: Anime along with K-pop, are increasing more and more as far as popularity across the globe. There was a time where some people would call it “weird” to watch anime. Nowadays it is a normal thing that is talked about regularly, for a decent amount of the population
Final Thoughts
There could only be a couple downsides to this(depending on who you talk to). One: you end up missing your flight because you still haven’t seen Naruto become Hokage. Two: another person is watching hentai(or borderline) that you really are not about. Seriously though, this is an awesome win for many anime fans and hopefully many future anime lovers to come.
