Crave just made Canada a much better place to be an anime movie fan.
The Announcement
Crave has added 14 anime films to its streaming lineup in Canada, giving subscribers a sizable batch of modern theatrical favorites and high-demand franchise entries to watch at home. The headline grabs are three movies that many fans still associate with “event” theatrical runs: Dragon Ball Super’s film Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, Jujutsu Kaisen 0 (the blockbuster prequel to Jujutsu Kaisen), and Makoto Shinkai’s Suzume.
According to Anime News Network’s report on the update, Crave’s new additions include Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, Jujutsu Kaisen 0, and Suzume, among other titles in the 14-film set. [1] For Canadian viewers who’ve been bouncing between rentals, limited-time digital storefront deals, and fragmented catalog availability, this kind of “movie bundle” drop is the practical win: one subscription, a bunch of big titles, and (ideally) fewer hoops when friends ask “where to watch” these anime films.
Details & Availability
Here’s what fans in Canada need to know about where to watch these titles and how to plan your viewing.
- Platform: Crave (streaming)
- Region: Canada
- What’s been added: 14 anime films, including:
- Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero (from the Dragon Ball Super franchise) [1]
- Jujutsu Kaisen 0 [1]
- Suzume [1]
Crave’s update is specifically framed as a Canadian availability expansion, so if you’re outside Canada, you should expect different “where to watch” results depending on your territory and existing licensing deals.
How to find them on Crave:
- Use Crave’s search and try both the English title and franchise keywords (for example, “Jujutsu,” “Dragon Ball,” or “Suzume”).
- If you’re hunting the right Dragon Ball entry, it helps to know the franchise structure: the film is tied to Dragon Ball Super, which follows after Dragon Ball in the broader canon.
Sub vs. dub: Anime News Network’s item confirms the films added, but it does not detail sub/dub options for each title in the article itself. [1] Because audio and subtitle availability can vary by platform and even by device app version, the best move is:
- Open the title on Crave and check the audio language and subtitle toggles.
- If you’re watching with friends, confirm dub availability before movie night—especially for popular picks like Jujutsu Kaisen 0 and Suzume.
Practical takeaway: If you’re in Canada and already paying for Crave, this is a low-effort catalog upgrade. If you’re not subscribed, it may be worth comparing the cost of a month of Crave against the price of renting or buying multiple films individually.
What to Watch
If any of these titles are new to you, here are the three biggest “start here” recommendations from the announced lineup.
-
Suzume: A modern fantasy road movie with disaster-myth vibes and that signature Makoto Shinkai emotional sweep. It’s a great pick even if you don’t watch much TV anime—easy to recommend to newcomers who want a standalone film experience.
-
Jujutsu Kaisen 0: A prequel film that expands the world of Jujutsu Kaisen with high-impact action and character groundwork that hits harder once you’ve seen the series. If you’re series-curious, this can work as an entry point, but it also rewards existing fans with context and big-screen energy.
-
Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero (franchise context: Dragon Ball Super and the broader Dragon Ball legacy): A modern Dragon Ball movie built for fans who want slick fights and a fresh spotlight on familiar faces. Even if you’re not fully caught up, it’s a fun “popcorn anime” night.
Otaku Insider's Take
Crave picking up a 14-film anime package is exactly the kind of licensing move that makes a platform feel relevant to anime fans—especially in Canada, where “where to watch” answers can be more limited than in the U.S. The inclusion of recent, high-profile movies like Suzume and Jujutsu Kaisen 0 suggests Crave isn’t just padding the catalog with deep cuts; it’s investing in titles people actively search for.
That said, the user experience will live or die on execution: clear listing pages, consistent subtitle/dub options, and stable availability. If Crave can keep these films accessible long enough for word-of-mouth to do its thing, this drop could turn the service into a legitimate “anime movies” destination—rather than a platform fans only check as a last resort.
