A comment about my pacing made me drop the 1.5x speed habit for good
I used to watch every anime at 1.5x speed to binge faster, and someone in a Discord chat said I was 'missing the sakuga and the silence between lines'. They were right, I rewatched episode 7 of Frieren at normal speed and caught a whole emotional beat I'd blown past. Anyone else get called out for a viewing habit that actually stuck?
Wait people actually watch anime sped up? That just sounds awful lol. Half the point of stuff like Frieren is sitting in those quiet moments and letting them hit you. Fast forward through that and you might as well just read a plot summary.
