Choose Crunchyroll when creating a task group in Stellar 4.0. The module supports guest checkout and saved accounts. A Monitor task checks product availability; a Normal task attempts checkout. Both guest and account checkout need a configured Verify Link Input method.
Video Guide
The video shows an older interface. Use the written steps and screenshots below for the current Stellar 4.0 fields.
Quick Start: Recommended Setup
- Prepare a profile, residential proxies and the confirmed product SKU. Check whether the release requires a paid membership.
- Set up Verify Link Input with IMAP or AYCD, even for guest checkout. Prepare Bot or Aycd captcha solving separately.
- Create monitor and normal tasks with the same SKU. Select the required Profile on both.
- Enable Watch Task on normal. Select a qualifying Account for member-only releases, or leave it blank for permitted guest checkout.
- Start both tasks when ready to buy and remain available for verification and captcha prompts.
Preliminary Checklist
- Save your checkout profile with accurate billing, shipping, payment and email details.
- Prepare residential proxies as the starting recommendation. ISP proxies have had problems on this site; use them only if you have verified that they work for your setup.
- Find the product SKU and check its quantity limit. Some releases require a paid Crunchyroll membership and a saved account with that membership.
- Set up IMAP or AYCD for Verify Link Input. This is required for guest checkout as well as account checkout.
- Prepare your captcha method: Bot or Aycd. Verification links and captcha challenges are separate steps.
Use the current SKU confirmed for the release. Crunchyroll SKUs can contain letters as well as numbers; do not assume that the old numeric ID at the end of a URL is always the current task input. Staff reported a SKU changing during an October 30 release, so recheck current drop instructions if tasks are not finding the item. Copy the identifier exactly and use the same SKU in Monitor and Normal.
The older URL below illustrates a numeric SKU, 4571623504702. Keep it as a format example only, not as proof that all current products use numeric SKUs:
Example product URL:

Accounts & Sessions
Guest checkout or a saved account
For guest checkout, leave Account blank in the Normal task. For account checkout, save your credentials in Accounts → Crunchyroll and select that account in the task. The account form uses a name, email and password; bulk import uses email;password, one account per line. Adding credentials does not itself complete a login.
Use one active checkout task per saved account. If a product requires membership, guest checkout is not a substitute for a qualifying account. Avoid assuming that a saved session will remain valid for a fixed number of weeks.
Configure Verify Link Input
The Normal form requires Verify Link Input and offers IMAP or AYCD. Select the service that is configured to handle the verification link for the email used by your checkout. IMAP is selected by default in the form, but you still need a working mailbox connection. This requirement applies whether Account is blank or a saved account is selected.
For IMAP, connect the relevant mailbox in Stellar’s IMAP tab before starting. If you choose AYCD, configure its integration first. There is no Manual choice in this dropdown. A captcha provider cannot replace the email-verification setup.
Captcha Harvesters & Verification
Captcha Provider
- Bot: use Stellar’s captcha harvesters with Google Chrome installed and be ready to solve the challenge when prompted. Older screenshots may call this Solver.
- Aycd: use your configured AYCD AutoSolve connection.
- Do not confuse captcha solving with Verify Link Input. A working captcha service does not prove that Stellar can access your verification email.
Supported Modes
- monitor: Checks inventory and signals matching checkout tasks.
- normal: Attempts guest or account checkout; Verify Link Input is required in either case.
Monitor Mode Breakdown
- Open a Crunchyroll task group and choose Create Task → monitor.
- Select the required Profile and your Monitor Proxy group.
- Enter the confirmed SKU.
- Review Monitoring Delay and Reset Delay, then create the task. Start with one Monitor task per SKU.
The earlier guide recommends around 6500 ms for Monitoring Delay and a Reset Delay below 5000 ms. These are starting recommendations, not required app defaults or guarantees. The form currently defaults Monitoring Delay to 3000 ms. Reset Delay is the pause before monitoring resumes after detecting stock. Follow current release guidance if it differs.
Name
Optional label to help you recognize this task. Use the product, account or purpose rather than leaving many tasks indistinguishable.
Mode
Select the mode named in this breakdown. Changing the mode changes the available fields and what the task does.
Start Time and End Time
Optional scheduling controls. Leave blank for manual timing. A scheduled task must still be started in Stellar; entering a start time does not start a stopped task.
Task Qty
The Qty at the bottom creates that many copies of the task. Use 1 while learning and check account limits before creating duplicates.
Profile
The Monitor form requires a profile. Choose the intended profile for this setup.
Monitor Proxy
Choose the tested proxy group used to check stock. Keep its requests and data use within the capacity of the proxy pool.
SKU
The current release SKU, which may contain letters and numbers. Match it exactly to the Normal task.
Monitoring Delay
The earlier recommendation is around 6500 ms; the current form starts at 3000 ms. Follow current release guidance.
Reset Delay
The earlier recommendation is below 5000 ms; do not reduce it aggressively without testing.
Normal Mode Breakdown
- Choose Create Task → normal.
- Select your Profile and Checkout Proxy group.
- Enter the same SKU as the Monitor task. Start with product Qty 1 and respect the listing’s purchase limit.
- Choose Account if using a saved account, or leave it blank for guest checkout.
- Choose Verify Link Input: IMAP or AYCD, using the configured service for the checkout email.
- Choose Captcha Provider: Bot or Aycd.
- Enable Watch Task to use the matching Monitor task’s stock signal. Leave Endless Mode off while learning.
- Review Delay, then create the task. Start the Monitor and Normal tasks when you are ready to attempt a real purchase.
Example: a Monitor task checks SKU 4571623504702. A Normal task using that same SKU, your profile and Watch Task enabled can attempt checkout when stock is detected. The verification-link setup is still required even if you use guest checkout.
Name
Optional label to help you recognize this task. Use the product, account or purpose rather than leaving many tasks indistinguishable.
Mode
Select the mode named in this breakdown. Changing the mode changes the available fields and what the task does.
Start Time and End Time
Optional scheduling controls. Leave blank for manual timing. A scheduled task must still be started in Stellar; entering a start time does not start a stopped task.
Task Qty
The Qty at the bottom creates that many copies of the task. Use 1 while learning and check account limits before creating duplicates.
Profile
Choose the saved profile intended for this purchase. Check the email, contact, shipping, billing and payment details before starting.
Checkout Proxy
Choose the tested proxy group used for login and checkout. Follow the retailer-specific proxy advice above.
SKU
The current release SKU, matching your Monitor exactly.
Qty
Units requested in one order. Begin with 1 and respect the product’s purchase limit. This is separate from the task-copy Qty at the bottom.
Delay
Around 3500 ms is the earlier starting recommendation; the form defaults to 3000 ms.
Account
Optional for ordinary guest checkout. Select a qualifying saved account when the release requires membership.
Verify Link Input
Required for guest and account checkout. Choose IMAP or AYCD after configuring access to the checkout email. There is no Manual option in this dropdown.
Captcha Provider
Bot or Aycd. Bot uses Stellar harvesters; Aycd uses your configured AutoSolve connection. This does not replace Verify Link Input.
Watch Task
Enable to wait for a matching running Monitor rather than have the checkout task monitor on its own. Product and fulfillment settings must match. A waiting status is normal until stock is detected.
Endless Mode
Leave off unless you intend repeat purchases after success.
Use Rakuten?
Enable only after setting up the service and checking eligibility.
Normal Mode — Optional Fields
- Delay: the Normal form defaults to 3000 ms. Around 3500 ms was the guide’s starting checkout recommendation; 3500 ms means 3.5 seconds. Increase overly aggressive delays if they cause errors.
- Watch Task: pairs the Normal task with a Monitor for the same SKU. An already available product can proceed to checkout, so do not start a live test unless you intend to buy.
- Endless Mode: leave off for a first setup; continued operation after success can create additional purchases.
- Use Rakuten?: configure Rakuten first and check eligibility before enabling it.
- Start Time / End Time: optional scheduling. Leave blank if you will start and stop manually.
- Product Qty is units per order. The Qty at the bottom is the number of tasks created. Keep both at 1 while learning.
FAQ & Release Preparation
Common Errors and Fixes
Missing verification link
check the checkout email, mailbox connection and Verify Link Input. Guest checkout still needs this setup.
Captcha waiting or failing
If captcha challenges repeat in a loop, restart Stellar to load the latest backend. Backend 9.0.59, released November 3, 2026, fixed a Crunchyroll captcha loop following login changes.
Check Bot harvester availability or the AYCD connection. Email verification and captcha troubleshooting use different services. If the problem continues after restarting, send support the exact task status and your selected captcha method.
Waiting for stock
Confirm that Monitor is running, both tasks use the same confirmed SKU and Watch Task is enabled. Check the latest drop instructions in case the retailer changed the SKU; update both tasks to the new identifier when confirmed. An old product ID can leave tasks watching the wrong item.
Membership or account error
check that the correct saved account has the required membership and is not being used by another active checkout task.
Proxy errors
try a working residential group, check available data and increase aggressive delays.
Checkout failure
check quantity limits, profile details and whether the item sold out. Before testing an in-stock product, remember that the test may place an order.
