🚨BREAKING🚨

Crunchyroll has allegedly rolled out a new "Slow Sellers" policy for the Crunchyroll Store in which products that fail to meet internal sales expectations are flagged, leading to order cancellations and delisting of the product to prioritize other products that are considered "fast selling" (Popular IPs, Trending Emerging IPs, etc)

In addition, it's also alleged that publishers are not notified if & when Crunchyroll decides to mark one of their products as a "slow seller" or if the product is delistedImage ✨Background Context✨

• Back when Crunchyroll announced their merger with Right Stuf, they released a FAQ in which they committed to customers their open orders will still be processed and fulfilled by Right Stuf

• For those who've never used Right Stuf prior to the merger, the website allowed you to place a backorder on

- At the time, if enough backorders were placed -> this would allow the distributor to suggest a reprint to the publisher to fulfill those orders

Side note: Ultimately "it is" up to the publisher if they decide to order a reprint of a specific series/volume. However placing a backorder would help increase the justification of a reprint to the publisherImage
