Peak Fan Sub

  They also used to be harder to read.

  Those boring subtitles we have nowadays are easier on my old eyes.

    Ohh, there are still plenty of crappy subs out there. Just watched something last week with all white subs. And several scenes were white. We put borders around text for this very reason damn it. 😞

      The real wild West is closed captions for dubs.

      There was one I was watching and was pissing me off for… Re: Zero, I think? Terrible formatting, tons of obvious errors, seemed like an obvious AI abomination.

      Then out of nowhere in one scene the captioner simply inserted “He Donkey” into the text while Subaru was being a moron and I have to admit, very accurate.

      Aggretsuko had subtitles like that when I was watching it on Netflix. A lot of backgrounds were white, too…

    Nah, the yellow text with black outline was the gold standard. Literally. Very easy to read without the high contrast that is harsh on the eyes.

    Wait… was this a trap to get me to date myself?

  New subbers that do fun formats are being cultivated in the vtubers clipping scene. With how busy it is to keep up with vtubers of their choosing though, I have little hope some of them will use their skills to sub anime though :(

  If I encounter subs with positioning, my brain generates more happiness hormones than I ever should be allowed to have.

  Not anime per say, but these are some yt channels that do have fun with their subtitles, while being quite legible:

    I hadn’t seen peak today yet; thank you for that.

  We also used to watch anime on smaller resolution CRT’s, so it was useful to have subtitles that stood out for that reason.
