SEATTLE — Anime-Planet, the world's most reputable recommendation database for anime and manga that serves 500,000 users a month, now supports in-depth Crunchyroll video integration.

As Crunchyroll is an industry leader in bringing anime to the masses, and as Anime-Planet shares Crunchyroll's desire to give fans an easy way to find new anime via the recommendation database, it was a perfect fit for partnership,” she said.
