As someone who enjoys anime, I myself  also wonder: Does Crunchyroll have a free trial? How long is Crunchyroll free  trial? To figure it out, I decided to try it myself. The answer is YES, but  there are a few important details. In this guide, I will share my full  experience\u2014how long the trial lasts, methods to get Crunchyroll for free, what  happens when it ends, and how to cancel it easily.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"template-navigation\">\r\n    <p class=\"template-navigation-title\">Quick Navigation<span>CLOSE<\/span><\/p>\r\n    <ol>\r\n        <li><a href=\"#part1\">Crunchyroll Free Trial: What\u2019s Included<\/a><\/li>\r\n        <li><a href=\"#part2\">How to Get a Crunchyroll Free Trial<\/a>\r\n            <ul>\r\n\t\t<li><a href=\"#part2-1\">Method 1 &#8211; Through the Official Website <\/a><\/li>\r\n\t\t<li><a href=\"#part2-2\">Method 2 &#8211; Via Partner Platforms <\/a><\/li>\r\n\t\t<li><a href=\"#part2-3\">Method 3 &#8211; Method 3 \u2014 Promotional Offers <\/a><\/li>\r\n            <\/ul>\r\n        <\/li>\r\n        <li><a href=\"#part3\">Can You Watch Offline During Free Trial?<\/a><\/li>\r\n        <li><a href=\"#part4\">What Happens When the Free Trial Ends?<\/a><\/li>\r\n\t\t<li><a href=\"#part5\">How to Cancel Crunchyroll Free Trial<\/a><\/li>\r\n\t\t<li><a href=\"#part6\">FAQs<\/a><\/li>\r\n    <\/ol>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h2 id=\"part1\" class=\"tem-h2\">1. Crunchyroll Free Trial: What\u2019s Included<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">Crunchyroll used  to offer a 30-day free trial. But when I signed up, I found the Crunchyroll  30-day free trial is no longer available; it is limited to 7 days now. Here\u2019s  what I enjoy.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"tc2\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.com\/knowledge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/crunchyroll-free-trial.jpg\" class=\"highslide\" rel=\"highslide\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.com\/knowledge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/crunchyroll-free-trial.jpg\" alt=\"crunchyroll-free-trial\" width=\"650\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-136102 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/475;\" \/><\/a><\/div>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n    <li>I  streamed anime completely without ads. It\u2019s so much smoother and more immersive  compared to the free version.<\/li>\r\n    <li>I  watched simulcast episodes shortly after they aired in Japan. This is something  I couldn\u2019t do on a standard free account.<\/li>\r\n    <li>Its  full content library is so huge! You can literally find all anime series, movies,  and dubbed versions.<\/li>\r\n    <li>I  can shop in the Crunchyroll Store, but the feature is available in the U.S.  only.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">Overall,  during my trial, I received full access to the Premium experience, which  honestly felt like using a paid subscription.<\/p>\r\n<h2 id=\"part2\" class=\"tem-h2\">2. How to Get a Crunchyroll Free Trial<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">Want to get a  Crunchyroll free trial like me? According to my experience, you can make it via  3 approaches, and they are: <strong><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<h3 id=\"part2-1\" class=\"tem-h3\">2.1 Method 1 &#8211; Through the Official Website<\/h3>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">The first and  simplest way to get a Crunchyroll free trial is via its official website.  Here\u2019s how. <\/p>\r\n<div class=\"tem-step step1\">I visited the official Premium Free Trial Offer page. Then I select a subscription plan (Fan or Mega Fan).<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"tem-step step2\">I clicked on the Start 7-day free trial button. Now I need to create a new account first. <\/div>\r\n<div class=\"tem-step step3\">Now select the payment method and proceed to check out. You won\u2019t be charged anything. <\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"tc2\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.com\/knowledge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/crunchyroll-free-trial-payment.jpg\" class=\"highslide\" rel=\"highslide\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.com\/knowledge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/crunchyroll-free-trial-payment.jpg\" alt=\"crunchyroll-free-trial-payment\" width=\"650\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-136102 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/342;\" \/><\/a><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 id=\"part2-2\" class=\"tem-h3\">2.2 Method 2 &#8211; Via Partner Platforms<\/h3>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">I  found that some channels also provide a Crunchyroll free trial. Yet the billing  is handled through the platform, not Crunchyroll. This setup feels more  convenient if I already use these services for subscriptions<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\"><strong>Amazon Prime  Video Channels<\/strong>: I used  my Prime account to add Crunchyroll as a channel. I simply went to the Prime  Video store, selected Crunchyroll, and started the free trial. Billing and  cancellation are directly managed through Amazon, which made the process very  streamlined.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"tc2\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.com\/knowledge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/amazon-crunchyroll-free-trial.jpg\" class=\"highslide\" rel=\"highslide\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.com\/knowledge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/amazon-crunchyroll-free-trial.jpg\" alt=\"amazon-crunchyroll-free-trial\" width=\"650\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-136102 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/370;\" \/><\/a><\/div>\r\n\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\"><strong>Roku Channel<\/strong>: I also tried accessing Crunchyroll through  Roku. As a new user, I was able to start a 7-day free trial directly from the  Crunchyroll app on my Roku device. <\/p>\r\n<h3 id=\"part2-3\" class=\"tem-h3\">2.3 Method 3 &#8211; Promotional Offers<\/h3>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">One great  offer I came across was the Crunchyroll x Walmart+ promotional offer. If you  are a Walmart+ subscriber in the US and new to Crunchyroll, you will redeem a  30-day free trial of the Fan plan, along with a small cash-back reward.<\/p>\r\n<h2 id=\"part3\" class=\"tem-h2\">3. Can You Watch Offline During Free Trial?<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">Yes,  according to my experience. Offline downloads are available during the free  trial on Premium plans. You can download episodes and movies in HD for viewing  without an internet connection. However, the offline download feature is  available only for higher-tier plans, for instance, Mega Fan and Ultimate Fan. <\/p>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">In my  experience, if you want even more flexible offline playback beyond the official  app limits, I recommend CleverGet Crunchyroll Downloader (a dedicated module within  Moyea Video Downloader).<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"template-window\">\r\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/cleverget.org\/images\/products\/windows\/cleverget-crunchyroll-downloader.jpg\" class=\"highslide\" rel=\"highslide\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" title=\"CleverGet Crunchyroll Downloader\" alt=\"CleverGet Crunchyroll Downloader\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cleverget.org\/images\/products\/windows\/cleverget-crunchyroll-downloader.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\">\r\n    <\/a>\r\n    <div class=\"template-window-list\">\r\n        <p class=\"template-window-title\"><a title=\"CleverGet Crybcgtroll Downloader\" href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/crunchyroll-downloader.html\" target=\"_blank\">CleverGet Crunchyroll Downloader<\/a><\/p>\r\n        <ul>\r\n            <li>Download Crunchyroll anime at up to 1080P resolution.<\/li>\r\n            <li>Convert Crunchyroll video to MP4\/MKV with original quality.<\/li>\r\n            <li>Download Crunchyroll episodes across seasons in batch.<\/li>\r\n            <li>Reserve a selected subtitle and audio track.<\/li>\r\n            <li>Download Crunchyroll anime with ads removed.<\/li>\r\n        <\/ul>\r\n        <div class=\"template-window-btns\">\r\n            <a class=\"win\" href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/downloads\/video-downloader.html?utm_source=leawo.com.com&#038;utm_medium=20260506_crunchyroll_downloader&#038;utm_campaign=1426\">Download<\/a>\r\n            <a class=\"mac\" href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/downloads\/video-downloader-mac.html?utm_source=leawo.com.com&#038;utm_medium=20260506_crunchyroll_downloader&#038;utm_campaign=1426\">Download<\/a>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">It helps me  download episodes for offline viewing in formats like MP4 or MKV, keep  subtitles and audio tracks, and store files locally so I can watch them on  different devices without relying on an internet connection. Moreover, it supports  a handful of streaming websites. So it would be quite handy if you have  multiple subscriptions to other services. <\/p>\r\n<h2 id=\"part4\" class=\"tem-h2\">4. What Happens When the Free Trial Ends?<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">How to get  Crunchyroll for free? I have listed the steps and channels to get offers. But  what happens when the Crunchyroll free trial ends? If you don\u2019t cancel in time,  the trial automatically converts into a paid subscription at the end of the  7-day (or promotional 30-day) period. Your saved payment method will be charged  the full monthly price of the plan you chose.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"tc2\"><a href=\"\/images\/knowledge\/icon\/example.png\" class=\"highslide\" rel=\"highslide\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/images\/knowledge\/icon\/example.png\" alt=\"7-day-crunchyroll-free-trial\" width=\"650\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-136102 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><\/a><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">To avoid any  billing, I recommend you cancel before the trial expires. Crunchyroll usually  sends reminder emails, yet I always set a personal calendar alert to stay safe.  Canceling on time means you enjoy the entire free period without any charges. <\/p>\r\n<h2 id=\"part5\" class=\"tem-h2\">5. How to Cancel Crunchyroll Free Trial<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">If you decide  to cancel the Crunchyroll free trial just like me, here are the steps I  concluded based on my experience. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"tem-step step1\">Go to  account settings. Open Membership Info.<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"tem-step step2\">Disable  auto-renewal or cancel subscription.<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"tem-step step3\">Confirm  cancellation to end your free trial.<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"tc2\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.com\/knowledge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cancel-crunchyroll-free-trial.jpg\" class=\"highslide\" rel=\"highslide\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.com\/knowledge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cancel-crunchyroll-free-trial.jpg\" alt=\"cancel-crunchyroll-free-trial\" width=\"650\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-136102 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/502;\" \/><\/a><\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"template-tips\">\r\n    <div class=\"tem-tips-title\">Note:<\/div>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">If you cancel too early, it might immediately end premium access in some cases. So I usually wait until the last day or two if I want maximum free.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h2 id=\"part6\" class=\"tem-h2\">Part 6. FAQs<\/h2>\r\n<h3>Is Crunchyroll free without a subscription?<\/h3>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">Yes, we can  all use Crunchyroll for free, but the limitations are that we have to deal with  ads, limited access, and no premium features.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Can you get multiple free trials? <\/h3>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">From what I  tested, NO. I could only use the free trial once per account.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Do you need a credit card? <\/h3>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">Yes, I had to  provide a payment method to activate the trial. However, Crunchyroll won\u2019t  charge you immediately until the trial ends. <\/p>\r\n<h3>Can you change plans during the trial?<\/h3>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">Yes, you can  usually upgrade or switch plans via account settings while the trial is active.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Does the trial include all content?<\/h3>\r\n<p class=\"tem-p\">Mostly yes. I  can access the full Premium library, but some content still depends on region  or release timing.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summary: This blog will introduce how to get Crunchyroll for free with a 7-day official trial and tips to save anime for offline viewing.
