How to Get Real-Time Subtitles for Crunchyroll
Crunchyroll is one of the most popular platforms for watching anime, but language barriers can get in the way. Seagull adds real-time translated subtitles to Crunchyroll on your desktop, so you can follow along in your language without missing a word.
Why you need subtitles for Crunchyroll

But when the audio is in a language you do not speak, some shows lack subtitles in your language or release them on a delay.
