I've been watching anime with the subtitles off for like two years because I thought it made me 'cooler' or something. Then my friend came over and asked why the characters were speaking nonsense. | Anime Discussions - Freelance Forum - The Community for Independent Professionals
I've been watching anime with the subtitles off for like two years because I thought it made me 'cooler' or something. Then my friend came over and asked why the characters were speaking nonsense.
Forget being cool, you just unlocked a whole new genre of abstract performance art. Your friend didn't hear nonsense, they witnessed your personal avant-garde dub. Two years of just vibing with the emotional grunts and dramatic gasps is honestly kind of impressive. You must have the world's best headcanon for every plot. Honestly, this is the funniest way to watch anime I have ever heard of.
Huh, that's actually wild to think about! You basically invented a whole new way to experience a story just by vibing with the sound design and your own imagination.
