Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Crunchyroll at Free against Jumpy Cat's $2.99. Crunchyroll also leads on ratings volume (857 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Jumpy Cat's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (100% vs 82%). On rating, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
