On PS5, open the Media area, install or launch the Crunchyroll app, and search for One Piece and JUJUTSU KAISEN. Both series have official Crunchyroll catalog pages, and PlayStation identifies Crunchyroll as an anime-streaming service for PS5. Before subscribing, confirm that the shows, seasons, episodes, and preferred audio or subtitle tracks are available in your country. Netflix is another PS5 option, but its official Shonen Anime category does not prove that every episode or season of either series is available.

What you need before watching

Streaming on PS5 requires a PlayStation Network account and an internet connection. PlayStation notes that some streaming services require paid subscriptions and that app availability can vary by country. The official PS5 entertainment guide lists the Media home as the place to choose streaming services, including Crunchyroll, Netflix, and Hulu: PlayStation PS5 entertainment page.

  • A PS5 connected to the internet.
  • A PlayStation Network account signed in on the console.
  • A streaming account for the service you choose.
  • A subscription if that service requires one for the episodes you want.
  • A quick catalog check for your country, because licensing can change what is available.

The regular DualSense controller is enough to browse and play video. PlayStation’s optional Media Remote can control movies and streaming services, but it is not required. If you prefer not to buy another accessory, there is no viewing limitation when you use the controller.

How to watch both series with Crunchyroll

Crunchyroll is the most direct PS5 route to check because PlayStation documents its PS5 app for anime and Crunchyroll maintains official pages for both target series. The app is the practical place to verify the catalog attached to your account and location.

1. Open the PS5 streaming area

  1. Turn on the PS5 and sign in to the profile that will use the streaming service.
  2. From the home screen, move to Media.
  3. Use the app row or search function to find Crunchyroll.
  4. Select Download or Install if it is not already on the console.

If Crunchyroll is not shown, search again from the Media area rather than assuming that the service is unavailable everywhere. PlayStation says app availability can vary by country, so the country attached to the PlayStation account matters.

2. Launch Crunchyroll and sign in

Open Crunchyroll after installation and sign in to an existing account, or follow the on-screen account instructions. The PS5 app is the viewing interface; subscription eligibility and catalog rights are controlled by Crunchyroll and its regional licenses. If more than one person uses the console, make sure you are signed in to the profile and service account that hold the subscription you intend to use.

3. Search for One Piece

Use the app’s search field and enter One Piece. The official series page is Crunchyroll’s One Piece listing. Open the result, then inspect the season or episode selector rather than assuming that the page contains the same selection in every country.

Special offer. See more information about Outbyte and uninstall instructions. Please review EULA and Privacy policy.

When the result opens, note the earliest episode you can select and the most recent episode shown. This quick range check helps reveal a partial catalog before you start a long catch-up watch. If the app shows separate versions, specials, or language entries, open the one that matches the episodes you want and verify its details individually.

4. Search for Jujutsu Kaisen

Search for JUJUTSU KAISEN and open the matching result. Crunchyroll’s official page is Crunchyroll’s JUJUTSU KAISEN listing. Check which seasons and episodes are selectable in the PS5 app before committing to a plan.

Do not rely only on a search result thumbnail. Open the title details, inspect every season selector that appears, and start an episode far enough into the series to confirm that the range you need is actually playable. A title page can exist even when particular episodes, seasons, or language tracks are restricted in a territory.

5. Check languages and the exact episode range

Open an episode’s playback or language options and verify the Japanese audio, dub, and subtitle combination you want. A title page alone does not establish that every language track is offered in your market. Also check the first and latest episodes you intend to watch; regional rights can result in a partial catalog.

Special offer. See more information about Outbyte and uninstall instructions. Please review EULA and Privacy policy.

For a sub-only viewing plan, confirm that Japanese audio and your preferred subtitle language are both selectable. For dubbed viewing, check the dub menu on an actual episode instead of inferring availability from a general description. Check more than one episode when possible, because the options displayed for one season may not prove that the same tracks exist for another.

6. Subscribe only after the catalog check

Crunchyroll explains that country-specific licensing agreements cause differences in what viewers can watch. Its regional-availability guidance is at Crunchyroll’s regional availability help page. If either series, a needed season, or a preferred language is missing, do not assume that paying will unlock it; verify the service’s local offering first.

This order matters if you are choosing between services. First identify the exact episodes and language tracks you need, then check them while signed in, and only then decide whether a paid plan is worthwhile. The app can show you the practical catalog for your account without requiring you to treat a general web listing as a guarantee.

Using Netflix on PS5

Netflix is also listed by PlayStation as a PS5 streaming app. To check it, open Media, launch or install Netflix, and search for each title directly in the local app.

  1. From the PS5 home screen, open Media.
  2. Find Netflix and install it if necessary.
  3. Sign in, then search separately for One Piece and Jujutsu Kaisen.
  4. Open the title details and inspect the available seasons, episodes, audio, and subtitles.

Netflix’s official Shonen Anime category lists Jujutsu Kaisen and a One Piece special. That category page does not establish full-series availability, complete season coverage, or access in every country. A direct search in the signed-in PS5 app is the relevant check for your account and location.

The distinction is important for One Piece: seeing a special in a genre collection is not the same as seeing the complete television anime. Open the title page and look for the season and episode controls. If Netflix returns only a special, a film, or a limited selection, treat that as the extent of the local Netflix offering rather than assuming additional episodes are hidden elsewhere.

Crunchyroll versus Netflix: what to compare

No single service can be declared complete for every country from the available official pages. Use the following checks in the PS5 apps before choosing where to watch.

Question Crunchyroll Netflix
PS5 app documented by PlayStation Yes; PlayStation describes Crunchyroll as an anime-streaming app on PS5. Yes; Netflix is listed among PS5 streaming services.
Official listing for One Piece Yes: series page. The Shonen Anime category lists a One Piece special, not proof of the complete anime.
Official listing for Jujutsu Kaisen Yes: series page. The Shonen Anime category lists Jujutsu Kaisen; verify seasons in the local app.
Complete episode and season coverage Must be checked in your country’s catalog. Must be checked in your country’s catalog.
Japanese audio, dubs, and subtitles Inspect the episode language menu for your market. Inspect the title’s audio and subtitle menu for your market.
Subscription decision Subscribe only after confirming both shows and the tracks you need. Use an existing subscription if it contains the required episodes; otherwise verify local availability before paying.

If you already subscribe to one service, checking its PS5 catalog first may avoid paying for a second service. The decisive factors are series completeness, the specific season you need, language options, and whether the service is available in your country. Convenience alone should not outweigh a missing season or unavailable subtitle track.

Special offer. See more information about Outbyte and uninstall instructions. Please review EULA and Privacy policy.

A simple comparison workflow

  1. Write down the two titles and the seasons or episodes you intend to watch.
  2. Search both titles in Crunchyroll while signed in on PS5.
  3. Record whether the required episodes open and which audio and subtitle choices appear.
  4. Repeat the same checks in Netflix if you have an account there.
  5. Choose the service that actually covers the needed episodes and language options, not the service whose category page looks broader.

One Piece availability and the 2026 Elbaph announcement

Crunchyroll News announced on February 17, 2026, that the One Piece anime would continue streaming on Crunchyroll when the Elbaph Arc premiered on April 5, 2026, with sub and dub formats mentioned in the announcement: Crunchyroll News announcement. That date-specific announcement confirms the stated release plan, but it does not settle every country’s rights or guarantee that all earlier episodes are offered in the same catalog. Use the PS5 app to verify the episodes you intend to watch.

The announcement is useful when you are checking whether new episodes are planned for Crunchyroll, but it should not replace the local title-page check. A release announcement can describe the service broadly while territory-specific agreements determine what appears after you sign in. Confirm the current episode list and language options in your own app.

Fixes when a show or episode is missing

The app does not appear in Media

  • Check that the PS5 is online and signed in to PlayStation Network.
  • Search the Media area again and install the app from its result.
  • Confirm your console account’s country or region, because app availability varies by country.
  • If another household profile can see the app, compare the profiles’ country settings before changing anything else.

The title appears but episodes are unavailable

  • Open the title inside the signed-in app rather than relying on a web category or search-engine result.
  • Check every season or version selector shown on the title page.
  • Look for a regional-rights notice. Licensing agreements can make a show or particular episodes unavailable in your location.
  • Try opening both an early and a later episode to establish the actual range.
  • Do not treat a subscription purchase as proof that missing episodes will become available.
  • Compare the other service’s local title page if you already have access to it.

The desired dub or subtitles are missing

  • Start an episode and open its audio and subtitle controls.
  • Check another episode, since language tracks can differ by season or release.
  • Confirm that the subtitle language is enabled rather than assuming that a dub selection includes it.
  • If the option is absent, compare the other service’s local listing before subscribing.

Playback is interrupted

  • Confirm that other devices can reach the internet on the same connection.
  • Close and relaunch the streaming app.
  • Restart the PS5 and retry the title.
  • Test another episode to determine whether the problem is limited to one item.
  • If only one series is affected, check its catalog and rights status rather than changing console settings unnecessarily.

Country and account checks that prevent surprises

The official pages reviewed are US-source pages, while streaming rights are negotiated by territory. A reader outside the United States should treat the US listings as service guidance, not as a promise of local access. Before starting a paid plan, confirm all of the following in the PS5 app:

  • Both exact titles appear in search.
  • The seasons and episode numbers you need can be opened.
  • The audio language and subtitle combination you prefer is selectable.
  • The app is supported for your PlayStation account’s country.
  • Your existing subscription, if any, covers the required content.
  • The account currently signed in on PS5 is the account whose catalog and subscription you checked.

Catalogs can change after a page is published. Recheck the local listings immediately before subscribing or beginning a long catch-up watch. If you travel or move between countries, repeat the check because the available rights can follow the territory rather than the title’s global web page.

What not to assume

  • A Crunchyroll series page does not guarantee identical access in every country.
  • A Netflix genre category does not prove that every season or episode is included.
  • A visible title does not guarantee the dub or subtitle language you prefer.
  • An announced release date does not resolve rights for all earlier episodes or every territory.
  • Buying a subscription does not automatically overcome regional licensing limits.
  • The absence of an app in one account’s Media area does not establish worldwide unavailability; country and account settings matter.

Fastest decision

For a single PS5 setup that is specifically aimed at both anime series, start with Crunchyroll: it is the PS5 anime app documented by PlayStation and has official pages for One Piece and JUJUTSU KAISEN. Verify your local seasons and language tracks first. Check Netflix as a second option when you already have an account there, but use its in-app title pages—not the Shonen Anime category alone—to determine whether the episodes you want are actually available.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I watch Crunchyroll on PS5?

Yes. PlayStation identifies Crunchyroll as an anime-streaming app for PS5. Open Media, install or launch Crunchyroll, sign in, and search for the series. App availability can vary by country.

What app has both One Piece and Jujutsu Kaisen on PS5?

Crunchyroll has official catalog pages for both titles and is documented by PlayStation as a PS5 anime app. Check the signed-in local catalog for complete seasons and language tracks before subscribing.

Is One Piece fully available on Netflix for PS5?

Are all Crunchyroll episodes available in every country?

No. Crunchyroll says country-specific licensing agreements affect what viewers can watch. Confirm the exact episodes, seasons, audio, and subtitles in your own PS5 catalog.

Can I watch dubbed versions on PS5?

Possibly, depending on the title, season, country, and service. Start an episode and open its audio and subtitle controls. The 2026 Crunchyroll News announcement for the One Piece Elbaph Arc mentions sub and dub formats, but local availability still needs to be checked.

Do I need a Media Remote to watch anime on PS5?

No. The DualSense controller is sufficient for navigating and playing video. PlayStation’s Media Remote is an optional accessory for controlling movies and streaming services.

What should I check before paying for a subscription?

Verify that both exact titles appear, the seasons and episode numbers you need open, your preferred Japanese audio or dub and subtitle combination is available, and the app supports your account’s country.

Special offer. See more information about Outbyte and uninstall instructions. Please review EULA and Privacy policy.

Why can I see a title but not play an episode?

The title may be listed while particular episodes or seasons are restricted by regional licensing. Open the title in the signed-in PS5 app, inspect its selectors, and compare the other service’s local catalog before subscribing.

The Bottom Line

Bottom line: Start in the PS5 Media area with Crunchyroll, search both series, and verify the exact seasons, episodes, audio, and subtitles available in your country before paying. Netflix is worth checking if you already use it, but its Shonen Anime category is not proof of complete One Piece or Jujutsu Kaisen coverage.
