That is dumb, it is fine if the release it a few days after. Management is horrible in Crunchyroll, fun fact though crunchyroll used to be a pirate site.

I remember that. They actually had quite a bit of trouble when they first tried to establish as an officially licensed company because of the fact that their initial user base was sailing the seas.
