Am I the only one here who can't watch most anime at normal

>>156507152
I pause the video and skip every 5 minutes and play each time for 5 seconds so i can watch one episode in 20-25 seconds. This way i get the idea of the episode without all the filler.

Nope.

I can't even read the subtitles, watch the animation, and listen to the music at the same time. Why would I even go faster ?

Only watch some shows at 1.2x speed like Teekyu and Akiba's Trip.

I can watch up to somewhere at 1.8 before it goes too fast.
The problem is that the audio distortion gets bad beyond 1.3, so its not enjoyable.

That said, 1.25 is a fine measure, if the series isn't that great in the first place.
For something that is genuinely good, you don't need a speed up.

>>156507610
Some people have better literacy or attention span than you.
So even 3x could be fine.

The downside is that to watch at a faster rate, you need to focus more, because it might go too fast.

>>156507152
Kill yoursels disrespectful prick.

>>156507152
Same.

>g.g.guys I totally belong on the top of the fandom right who cares if I don't consume or care, nerds are cool and mom told me I am great

I like anime so much I watch it at -1.5 speed.

>>156509464
If the series isn't so great, you should just stop watching.

>>156507152
Once you go what?

I use faster speed only when I'm about to drop the show and giving it one more episode before deciding.

I go 1.5 because I can't stand 12 FPS.

x1.5 is my standard, x1.25 for shows I really like and x2 for adaptations

>>156507152

I don't even watch anime I just put on an episode and listen to it at 2.0x the speed.

I don't even watch anime, I just read the subs with notepad and let my imagination go wild.

>>156507152

It's nice finishing seasons in under 15 minutes. Though I hate how rushed current anime is.

>>156514557
Are you upset you dont understand japanese or something? Why bother wasting time when I can watch shit 50% faster?

>>156514517
For your own sake, I hope you were joking

>>156514621
>Why bother wasting time when I can watch shit 50% faster?
You insufferable newfag, this is literally the first time I have ever felt such disgust at a poster for asking an otherwise innocuous question.

And I use "literally" here in its most literal and proper sense. I have a hard time quantifying the revulsion I have for your being, the gulf of apathy I feel for your plight. This is an almost spiritual experience for me, this new understanding of the ample breadth of my emotions. So I hope you'll understand just how sorely inadequate I feel in expressing myself, but kill yourself.

Please.

>>156514690
>>156514679
>I get mad when people enjoy things
Yeah nah, I think it would be beneficial for society if you just killed yourself instead.

Or at least remove yourself from the gene pool.

>>156507152
On a more related note. Fucking hell yes, I don't even remember when I started to watch on 1.3x speed, but it's pretty much the norm now. Unless the scene is something actually epic (which is fucking rare nowadays) it stays on 1.3

One Piece is a fucking 1.5 though, like holy shit Toei what the fuck are you doing? Especially dressrosa arc, wew.

>>156514753
>enjoy

>>156507152
I watch it at half speed to really savour the moment.

>>156514753
I'm not mad, I'm just baffled that anyone could think watching an anime like that is remotely a good idea.

Why do you even watch anime?

>>156514773
I thank god every single day that my brain is capable of processing information at different rates.

How the fuck do you faggots read books. Do you slow down what you're reading or speak it out loud as you read to make sure dialogue proceeds at normal rates?

I wish this kind of low quality shitposting was bannable.

>>156514964
Don't think shitposters ask or care about your opinion

You're retarded. You need a euthanasia, you literal waste of a human being. I hope you get shot when you step out of your house and raped by multiple dogs until you die of shock. You're too mentally ill to be allowed to live. Please kill yourself.

>>156515106
At what speed did you read that post?

>>156514859
Considering how anime handles animation and pacing- it is the only good way for majority of simplier shows. Of course you won't watch some sakugafest like that, but Lucky Star is borderline unwatchable as is- get it going faster, though, and it's hilarious.

>>156515112
>I'm so mentally incapable that I can't comprehend someone enjoying a medium at a slightly faster speed than what I like

Stop responding, you're making yourself look stupid.

>>156507152
I frequently jump 5 seconds forward; I watch lots of shit in hope of finding gems, and most anime is so standardized that very little is lost.
When something is good I obviously watch all of it, but mostly I spend 10-14 minutes on each episode.

>>156515211
I spoke out every word as if someone were speaking it to me, to make sure context wasn't lost.

I'm fairly slow, so when words and actions are done slightly faster than usual they lose meaning to me.

>>156515267
>I'm so mentally incapable that I can't even find the courage to shoot myself in the head
Stop living, you're making yourself look stupid.

>>156507152
I don´t even watch most of the shows nowadays, I either read the episode summary or have a friend tell me what happened while we have lunch. I do look at the OP and ED at once though. I still mark them as finished by the end of the last episode.

>>156515317
So, you're just going to continue with the retarded assumption that the speed at which you can read and how you watch something are the same?

>>156515424
If the fact that some people read faster than others doesn't help you understand that some people are capable of faster visual and audio retention as well, I don't know what will.

Unless you wanted us both to watch something at our varied speeds then have a mini quiz on what we just watched, I don't think either of us can prove otherwise anyways.

Do people have time to watch the amount of shit that comes out these days? I just put them on as background noises while working. That way I can follow the audio on what´s happening without having the watch the shitty CG. Honest to god, I can´t even name half the Kemono friends cast by looking at them even though I finished it.

>>156515440
Ad hominems never make sense. The difference between my argument and your argument is that I'm getting straight to the point: kill yourself. You don't deserve to live.

>>156515503
>literally yet to make a counterpoint besides "kill yourself"

really makes you think.

>>156515574
Your ad nauseam isn't really providing much to go off of either. You aren't addressing the point, I have nothing to respond to besides your meme comments that are meaningless on the internet even if you mean them sincerely.

>>156515539
Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should. Or, do you really think the problem here is retention? Entertainment on the conveyor belt, have fun.

It depend on the show.
I watch slow paced shows at 2.15, while mildly interesting at 1.64.
Interesting shows at 1.00

>>156515774
I think that a novel is best enjoyed when you read it slowly, if you read at full speed you might miss important motifs and themes. It's also important for pacing, a speed reader might totally miss the context of something!

Oh wait, that's fucking retarded. Please explain why watching something at a slightly faster speed loses anything of meaning.

>>156509464
>audio distortion gets bad beyond 1.3
I found mpv to do better job at speeding audio up than other player.

Film is, by design, to be processed at a particular rate. Changing that rate changes how you perceive the information it presents and you are receiving an entirely different experience to what the creators had intended.

And prose is a totally different medium, I don't know why you're even bringing it up as if it is relevant.

>>156515248
I've watched and enjoyed plenty of "simpler" shows. If you're not enjoying a show, you should just stop watching it.

>>156507363
I pause the video and then instantly skip towards the end and then usually close the stream.

I few years a go I've read an article how modern games are ruining our kids intelligence.
But think of it the other way around, what if modern games came first?
Won't it be looked at how reading static books would ruin the intelligence of the kids?
That's what you're arguing with, you try to apply a subjective idea on out dated concept.

It's a time saver when I have only a slight margin in which I'm able to watch an episode. However, I think it dampens the impact of some scenes and therefore I try to use it only for long-running series that have tons of only semi-important episodes.
