The leak is from Nikkei AsiaSony reports that Sony has exclusive rights to negotiate a potential acquisition, the value of which could exceed $ 950 million. Crunchyroll is based in the US and has a large library of anime content, including a relatively new list of original shows.
The anime market is hotter than ever, and interest is growing from streaming services like Netflix, which has released a number of its own original anime shows and films in recent years. Sony’s acquisition of Crunchyroll would make it a major competitor in the streaming market, at least in the anime genre.

Crunchyroll is known for its worldwide subscriber base as well as its millions of paying subscribers in addition to its free users. The service has a library of more than 1,000 movies and TV shows and recently added premium features like offline downloads to its platform for those willing to pay.
