Just started watching this. I'm 5 minutes into the first episode, and the narrator is talking so damn fast. I can't even look at the animation because I'm constantly reading the subtitles. Is it like this the entire show? ;_;

It slows down after the first episode or so but yes his monologues go by really quick. The novel is written as a first person stream-of-consciousness so the rapid fire delivery of the exposition is supposed to emulate this.

It gets slightly slower in the next ep/you also get used to it. I was pretty confused after the first ep too but it didn't hamper my enjoyment too much.

This is the exact reason I put this amazing show in On Hold list.
The only good solution for me is to find it subbed in my native.

It really feels good to be able to read more than 1000 words a minute

Maybe you were the slow one and Naruto was the fast one.

Watch it twice. One for the subtitles and another one for the animation.

It's one or the other for me. Either focus on the subtitles or just enjoy the animation. After awhile I realized most of the dialogue is just nonsense so I just skimmed through most of it.
