Are there any other anime platforms? Some of the free streaming services have older anime which I love but I was looking to get a pure anime service.

Nyaa.si and plex. Otherwise crunchy roll is under hbomax and funimation has a lot of content under Hulu . However paying for either is going directly into “western” anime using their god awful art style. I have an old laptop I use as a plex server and get regular updated torrents on Nyaa faster than either streamer. Also found Monster on Nyaa which is probably the most underrated anime in existence
The one time I tried adding anime to Plex it turned into a disorganized jumble. Maybe I didn’t name them right for the server to recognize the shows or something. I couldn’t even find metadata matches manually.
I recommend combining it with Sonarr, which can handle all of the renaming and organization for Plex (or Emby or Jellyfin) by itself, along with automated downloading.
I have it set up with Nyaa and a tag for my preferred seasonal release group, so only really have to find stuff manually when I'm grabbing older stuff, or BD versions of a show I already have. And even then it'll still handle all of the renaming for me.
There's some decent docker compose files you can search for that include plex, sonarr, the rest of the *rr family, and often a torrent client/vpn container as well.
