How do you feel about fancy subtitle tricks and gimmicks? For example, my Umaru subtitles give a bunch of weird effects, like fairly tasteful usage of "Caution" tape put over the eyecatches and the logo in the OP. There's a lot of this for OPs, like Sword Art Online's OP from Commie (Commie does a lot of this shit). I even had a copy of Another that inserted this meme into the scene.

I think it's shit in serious series, but cool in bad series like SAO and meme series like Free! and Umaru.

What's up with the "Sub pictures to Buffer" option in my MPC HC (with K-Lite Codecs) options? I don't get how I should be setting it, I tried messing with it and some options make the meme-subs flash in and out, and sometimes it even fucks with my subs when any extra subs pop up, like when a character is reading a text message both the message and the dialogue subs will go away for a minute.

Yeah, I can agree. It's worth a laugh here and there, but generally the jokes are cringeworthy the first time and worse every other time.

Unnecessary at best, horribly distracting at worst.

Probably the only subtitle trick I'm alright with is the way Mori presents TL notes on his subs. I think they work well.

Wow that's pretty smart. Pretty much furigana for English.

Sometimes they're there for a good reason

I remember being confused as fuck at how the line didn't make sense until I realized I was reading it the wrong way.

The perfect example of fancy subs being distracting and doing more harm than good.

Exactly. I've only ever seen Mori do this so I'm wondering how other sub groups have never thought of this before.

Considering that it's made by people in their free time for fun I usually don't mind as long as long as it's well-placed and styled.
