IDK, I'm an English speaking and have no problem watching a show, keeping up with the subtitles, and knitting/crochetting in the meantime. And it's not just anime; I watch tons of French and Bollywood films a hell of a lot more than anime. In fact, the only time I tend to watch anime is if there isn't already a mange version of it somewhere out there.

[(Anonymous)]

lol mange version

eating mangas

[othellia]

Wouldn't that be 'mango'?

[(Anonymous)]

mange means eat in french

you wrote mange not mango

[othellia]

Ah. Gotcha.

And I know I wrote mange after the one comment pointed it out. But my mind went immediately to this, hence the confusion.

[(Anonymous)]

(mange would be French)

[(Anonymous)]

Cause they are all mangy surrender monkeys?

[(Anonymous)]

Nice try.

[(Anonymous)]

I agree with this. I've never understood people who complain that "reading subtitles is hard!!" or "I can't read AND pay attention to the show!"...I will watch subtitled anime while knitting as well. I always assume people who use these types of excuses are either people who hate to read, have problems reading, or are just...not very smart.

[mistressofmuses]

I think for some people it just takes practice, and it doesn't necessarily mean they can't read well or aren't smart enough to manage it. I played a lot of video games when I was younger, where dialog wasn't all voice-acted, so I got a lot of practice reading on-screen text while still noting what was going on. Some people just find it hard to split their attention between reading and watching the action, which isn't necessarily bad; though I think that it'd be nice if people would actually try first, rather than just deciding it's too hard.

[(Anonymous)]

Bullshit. You can be an intelligent person and an avid reader and still need to devote more attention to a subtitled work than one voiced in a language in which you're fluent. I prefer subtitled anime, but if I want to watch something while I'm doing something else, I'm going to pick an English-language show instead so I can divide my attention without missing anything.

[(Anonymous)]

You're a jackass.

You don't have to look at your hands particularly often if you're knitting (not if you're any good anyway), but I like to watch TV while I'm cooking. If I don't look where I chop I'm going to lose a finger.

Or, get this, I also like to draw with the TV on. Try doing that without looking down frequently.

[(Anonymous)]

Or worse than losing a finger, make the food taste bad.

[(Anonymous)]

lol what

food tastes bad? redo

loses finger? regrow one

lol no

[diet_poison]

Why do you need an "excuse" to prefer a dub? You sound like a snob.
