Overview
Free Reaction lets you watch reaction videos the way they're meant to be seen — with the original content playing alongside the reactor, perfectly synced.
The problem
Reactors can't include copyrighted content in their videos. So you're left watching someone react to something you can't see. You either have to find the original and manually sync it yourself, or just deal with it.
The solution
When a reactor adds a simple tag to their video description, Free Reaction detects it and shows a "Watch with Anime" button. Click it, and the original video loads in a side panel using your own streaming subscription. Playback syncs automatically — play, pause, seek —
everything stays in lockstep.
How it works
1. Open a YouTube reaction video that supports Free Reaction
2. Click the sync button that appears below the video
3. The original episode opens in a side panel via your Crunchyroll subscription
4. Playback syncs automatically — the original starts exactly when the reactor starts watching
For reactors
Add this block to your YouTube video description to make your videos compatible:
[FREE_REACTION]
episode: https://www.crunchyroll.com/watch/EPISODE_ID
start_at: 120
[/FREE_REACTION]
- episode: Link to the original content
- start_at: Seconds into your video when the content begins
No piracy. No workarounds.
The viewer uses their own paid subscription. The reactor uploads only their reaction. Free Reaction just connects the two.
