Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Crunchyroll at none against Punch TV's shown. Crunchyroll also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Punch TV's advantage is ratings volume (304 vs 2) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Punch TV sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and Crunchyroll sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $13.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Crunchyroll holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Punch TV has 304 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 64% of Punch TV's written reviews are positive against 71% of Crunchyroll's.
Punch TV ships an update every 10 days, Crunchyroll every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
