The CEO of Crunchyroll Leaves Following a Merger With Funimation
Colin Decker, who became CEO of anime streamer Crunchyroll following its merger with Funimation last month, is exiting the company.
Decker, who previously headed up Funimation, leaves the role after more than three years at Sony, which acquired Funimation in 2017. He will be succeeded by Rahul Purini, the current COO of Crunchyroll, who also served in the same role at Funimation before the merger.
Sony’s Funimation group completed its $1.175bn acquisition of AT&T’s Crunchyroll service last year, bringing the two competing services under the same roof.
