Hi, i get this with cookies and with -u XXX -p XXX too ...

Thanks in advance

I would try again. (CR has been a bit spotty lately) but, I fear your error has to do with GEO Restrictions. youtube-dl --cookies cookies.txt --all-subs "http://www.crunchyroll.com/darling-in-the-franxx/episode-15-jian-769599" works just fine using latest.
