Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Crunchyroll at none against Hostage Evac's shown. Crunchyroll also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Hostage Evac's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
