Mile High
Mile High is the highest-rated series in Crushi Shorts at 7.6/10, combining a sharp rivalry hook with a 4/5 heat level and the longest runtime in the library. It is still under eight minutes, so expect a fast watch rather than a deep story. Candy AI remains our top pick if you want a much bigger catalog.

The Big Show
The Big Show is one of the strongest Crushi Shorts at 7.5/10, pairing a 4/5 heat level with a secret-admirer hook that has more heart than most. Episodes average barely over a minute, so it plays fast. Candy AI remains our top pick for a deeper catalog.

Snowed In
Snowed In is one of the strongest Crushi Shorts at 7.5/10, a compact winter drama where secrets matter as much as chemistry. Heat sits at a moderate 3/5 and the full story takes roughly 6.5 minutes, so it is an easy first pick. Candy AI is still our top choice for a larger library.

While He’s Away
While He's Away scores 7.4/10, a compact forbidden-romance pick with a moderate 3/5 heat level and a confident older-woman lead. With only four episodes and about 5.4 minutes, it is a quick watch rather than a story with room to grow.

A Spell for Three
A Spell for Three is the only series we tag as fantasy in Crushi Shorts and earns 7.3/10, with a 4/5 heat level and a magical twist on the love triangle. At about 5.2 minutes it is over quickly, so judge it by the free episodes.

Stay the Weekend
Stay the Weekend scores 7.3/10, a solid mid-table Crushi Shorts pick with a 4/5 heat level and a twist that puts friendship ahead of jealousy. The main drawback is length, at about six minutes in total. Candy AI stays our top pick for a deeper library.

Swim Lessons
Swim Lessons earns 7.2/10 in our Crushi Shorts ranking, a breezy, banter-led romance-drama with a 4/5 heat level and a playful bet at its center. It is light on plot at about six minutes, but the free episodes make it an easy test.

Extra Credit
Extra Credit lands at 7.2/10 in our Crushi Shorts ranking, offering a playful bet-driven setup, a group dynamic and a 4/5 heat level. With about 5.8 minutes across six episodes there is little room for depth, but the free episodes make it easy to try.

Off Limits
Off Limits scores 7.0/10, a revenge-tinged forbidden romance with a confident lead in Mila and a moderate 3/5 heat level. At about four minutes in total it is among the thinnest stories in Crushi Shorts, so the free episodes are the right place to start.

Bedside Manner
Bedside Manner lands at 6.9/10, with an appealing uniform-and-rules setup and a moderate 3/5 heat level. The story is very short at about 3.9 minutes, which is why it ranks in the lower half of Crushi Shorts.

Knockout
Knockout scores 6.8/10, a sports-flavored romance-drama that offers a change of pace from the group-driven titles in Crushi Shorts. Heat is a moderate 3/5 and the runtime is about five minutes, so it ranks near the bottom of the library.

Harvest
Harvest scores 6.8/10 in our Crushi Shorts ranking, with a 4/5 heat level and a distinctive wine-country setting. It is also the shortest series in the library at about 3.7 minutes, so it works best as a teaser.

What are Crushi Shorts?
Crushi Shorts are the vertical drama series inside Crushi AI, an NSFW AI companion platform. The section launched in early October 2026 with 11 series, and Mile High was added on October 5. Today there are 12 series and 59 episodes, all Crushi originals, with no real-performer series. Episodes run about 45 seconds to 1.6 minutes, so a whole series takes roughly 4 to 8 minutes and the full catalog about an hour. After you watch, you can chat with the cast on Crushi.
How to watch Crushi Shorts free
Episodes 1 and 2 are free on every series, which gives you 24 free episodes across the library. That is enough to sample all 12 stories before you pay anything. We recommend starting at the top of the ranking, watching both free episodes and only then deciding whether to subscribe.
What Premium unlocks
From episode 3 you need Premium, and Premium unlocks every episode of every series. There is no per-episode price, and no coins or tokens are spent on episodes. Tokens are only used for chat extras, photos, videos, voice and club actions. The library has 35 locked episodes in total, so one month of Premium at $12.99 finishes everything, about $0.37 per locked episode. The annual plan is $99.99 per year (about $8.33 per month), but for the shorts alone a single month is enough. Our heat ratings run from 3/5 to 4/5, with 7 of the 12 series at 4/5.
Our top 3 Crushi Shorts picks
1. Mile High
Mile High is our top pick at 7.6/10 (heat 4/5). Two rival flight attendants bet on an overnight New York to Paris flight, and the shy passenger in seat 2A has overheard the whole wager. Across 5 episodes (The Bet, Seniority, Occupied, Crew Rest and Room 614) it has the longest episodes in the catalog, about 1.6 minutes on average, and the strongest hook for a short binge.
2. Snowed In
Snowed In scores 7.5/10 (heat 3/5). A blizzard closes the only road to an Aspen chalet, and a young ski instructor and a married woman are stuck there for three days, each with a secret about why they stayed. It has 5 episodes, about 6.5 minutes in total, and it is the slower-burning pick of our top three.
3. The Big Show
The Big Show also scores 7.5/10 (heat 4/5) and has 6 episodes, tied for the most in the catalog. It is set in the Crushi Strip Club on the night a headliner dances her farewell show, and it follows a bashful piano tuner, dragged along for a birthday, who turns out to be the anonymous fan who has reserved her front-row chair every Friday for a year. It is also the easiest series to connect to the rest of the app, because the Strip Club is one of the Crushi worlds you can visit.
Crushi Shorts vs Candy Shorts
Crushi Shorts is a small library, with 12 series and 59 episodes, but it is already four times the size of Dream Companion’s. Candy Shorts, from our top-rated platform at 8.7/10, has 142 series and 822 episodes, new series every week and licensed creator series, and Secret Shorts has 21 series and 105 episodes and scores 7.6/10. Crushi AI scores 7.4/10 overall. Where Crushi Shorts wins is the price of finishing everything: one month of Premium unlocks the lot.
