If you ever need to satisfy your hunger for anime, check out Crunchyroll. The streaming service has been supplying the public with a massive roster of Japanese animation. It even offers a variety of video games and merchandise in its online store. Most content is available with a subscription, but many argue it’s worth it. Another thing Crunchyroll does is recommend shows for holiday viewing and host correlating sales. And with Valentine’s Day on the horizon, what will the public see on display?
Crunchyroll During the Holidays
Due to being around for so long, Crunchyroll gathered many types of anime programming. There are shows for fans of romance, comedy, mecha, horror, action, and adult situations. This selection also means there are episodes for special occasions, including holidays. It will offer people lists of programs ideal for holiday viewing. For example, the service presented a lineup of series appropriate for Halloween in 2024. It included choices such as Attack on Titan, Overlord, Chainsaw Man, Tokyo Ghoul, and Berserk.
Even if Crunchyroll doesn’t offer a lineup, it’ll do some to commemorate the occasion. It showcased an extensive gallery of festive artwork for the 2024 Christmas season. Another thing the streaming service does for holidays is host a special sale. During 2024’s Halloween, the online store offered a variety of ideal merchandise. It presented over 200 items, such as clothing, figurines, and Funko POP! goods. They were related to the corresponding shows, and most were on sale for reduced prices.
The New Lineup for February
Crunchyroll’s tradition of offering selective programs continues as Valentine’s Day approaches. Numerous romance anime will be available in the free-to-watch category. The list includes:
- A Couple of Cuckoos

And that’s just the tip of the romantic iceberg presented by this streaming service.
Various video games, including massively multiplayer online titles, will also be available. And, of course, Crunchyroll will conduct a sale for those looking for an ideal gift. It’ll be called the Lovestruck Loot sale and run from the 5th to the 14th. Items like disc sets, clothing, books, and figurines will be up to 30% off. Customers can even grab the special Blu-ray Edition of Naoko Yamada’s A Silent Voice. Romance is in the air, and this popular streaming service will make it soar.
Final Thoughts
Crunchyroll presenting a selection of anime for Valentine’s Day is quite intriguing and convenient. No doubt couples looking for something to watch for the occasion will appreciate this list. As for the roster itself, I assume the shows are appropriate for the upcoming holiday. I’m not a devoted follower of romance anime since I’m more attracted to action. But don’t let my tastes in entertainment affect yours if these shows interest you. They’ll be free to watch throughout February, so don’t miss your chance.
