Overview

• Crunchyroll acknowledged that a third-party vendor violated its agreement by deploying ChatGPT to generate German subtitles for the new Cygames series.
• Fans first flagged the issue when the line “ChatGPT said:Wenn ich die Welt von hier an weiter genießen kann” appeared at the 19:12 mark of episode one.
• President Rahul Purini had publicly ruled out AI in creative processes as recently as April, a stance that now conflicts with the subtitle revelations.
• Viewers have condemned the unintelligible translations and some are reverting to unofficial fansubs or demanding human-crafted localization.
• The streamer says it is correcting the errors and reviewing third-party workflows to restore quality and rebuild consumer trust.
