Why? Crunchyroll is one of the major websites that is fully supported by yt-dlp. No need to hassle with DRM here.

Works without any problem here.

You should use --cookies-from-browser option, and on Windows probably Firefox as browser, and the cookies from Crunchyroll have to be not older than 30 minutes due to recent changes at cloudflare. Best is to follow the issues discussed on github, especially issue #7442.

And as stated above, you can use yt-dlp as well.
