# CrunchyRoll.js *CrunchyRoll.js* is capable of saving *anime* episodes from the popular *CrunchyRoll* streaming service. An episode is stored in the original video format (often H.264 in a MP4 container) and the configured subtitle format (ASS or SRT). The two output files are optionally muxed into a single MKV file. ## Motivation *CrunchyRoll* has been providing an amazing streaming service and offers the best way to enjoy *anime* in a *convenient* and *legal* way. As a streaming service, video files cannot be saved and watched offline. Understandable from a business perspective and considering possible contract implications, but annoying for users. This application enables episodes to be saved for offline convenience. Please do not abuse this application; save episodes for **personal use** and **delete them** if you do not have an active premium account. Continue to support *CrunchyRoll*; without our financial backing their service cannot exist! ## Legal Warning This application is not endorsed or affliated with *CrunchyRoll*. The usage of this application enables episodes to be saved for offline convenience which may be forbidden by law in your country. Usage of this application may also cause a violation of the agreed *Terms of Service* between you and the stream provider. A tool is not responsible for your actions; please make an informed decision prior to using this application. ## Status ### Implemented * Subtitle decoding. * Subtitle converter for SRT subtitle output. * Video streaming. * Episode page scraping with subtitle saving and video streaming. * Add ASS support. * Add muxing (MP4+ASS=MKV). ### Pending Implementation * Add series API to save an entire series rather than per-episode. * Add batch-mode to queue a bunch of series and do incremental saves. * Add authentication to the entire stack to support premium content. * Add CLI interface with all the options. * Enjoy beautiful anime series from disk when internet is down. ## Work In Progress Open an issue or e-mail me directly.
