| i watch anime on my phone so i can't watch at 2x speed but the only anime i regret not watching faster was Aku no hana |
| Hope is painful... |
| Sounds dumb tbh. 2x Speed you can't even make out the characters dialogue because it turns to gibberish. The subs can be read, but lol. I'd have to put the volume on 0% so I don't hear the gibberish. |
 |
| I watch some more boring shows with increased speed and they actually become more interesting. Very rarely with 2x speed, usually it's around 1.2-1.5x. Some shows actually feel slow even with 2x speed. If speeding up the show can make it more enjoyable then why not. |

| Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand I'm done! Whew! Got caught up on "One Piece" in under 1 year all thanks to the x30 speed button. ^_^ |
| Mrs. Landingham, what's next? |
| They are impatient stupid people basically. |
 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
| I never used x2 button but always skipped the summary part op and ed after seeing first time.With that OP become an anime short to me. |

I can't find any logical argument in doing something that dumb and pointless. Opinions? бля, дебил ебанутый бля, в жопу блядь пьяный захуячился на крышу бля, нахуя только непонятно бля.

| Makes sitting through shitty shows less painful, it's pretty logical to do this. Not that I do it myself. |
| Because the anime is boring, and they either want to add it to their list, get a minimum # of episodes so their rating counts, or just want to get the plot down for one reason or another. |
| Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you. |
| "I'm not my AnimeList nor the animes I watch" is what Tyler Durden could tell nowadays. |
| Welp |

 |
| 1.25 is my fastest for some toei episodes. 2x is just wow. |
| I say they're assholes watching animes is not a job, if you like the plot you should watch it if you don't just drop the series their's no use fast forwarding and watching you won't be able to enjoy it that way(my opinion) |
| If its not a harem im not interested.....😑😑😑 |
| speeding up an anime kills its vibes. I obviously wouldnt want that EdenRage said: You should've tried the manga.i watch anime on my phone so i can't watch at 2x speed but the only anime i regret not watching faster was Aku no hana |
| Trust me, I am perplexed too. I find it to be retarded. I've done it like twice in my life and that's only because I'm retarded and want to complete the bottom 100.^It doesn't really make any difference for the Hinako OVAs anyway since they mostly just repeat the same 2-3 frame sequences over and over again but I still feel bad about it (well, mostly about watching them in the first place). Watching an 'actual' show at a different speed is something I'd never understand. Anything better than a 2/10 is not worth getting that treatment in my book. It indicates that those people are more interested in their completed list than the actual act of watching anime. You lose pretty much all aspects that make up an anime aside from the main story. I guess adding anime to your list just based on reading wiki synopsis is the next logical step if you wanna get even more efficient at this 'game' called Myanimelist. Changing the speed screws up everything the director and voice actors have done, completely throwing off the acting/voices, the music, the sense of timing, the flow, the atmosphere, the tension, everything. As far as I'm concerned you might have as well not watched the show if you rate it based on such a diminished experience. You certainly watched something very different than me and the others who watch it at normal speed. But you have no right to judge the show itself as it's not meant to be watched in a way that ruins everything. You wouldn't judge a piece of music based on some high-pitched 2x speed version, wouldn't you? At best that qualifies as a remix. But at the end of the day it's their cup of tea. I just personally won't be able to take them seriously when they try to argue about an anime they only watched a twisted 'remix' version of. |

| Wait what? I didn't even know that was a thing |
 |
| more than 2x is useless, I watch 1.2-1.7 to improve fast reading skill, concentration & reaction - it helps for gamers ;) When it became ur habit watching in normal speed seems so SLOooW.... Every movie/anime/yt video I watch at 1.5. I use normal speeed only for music. |
| Is it GreanPeace? I don't think so - whine to your parents or tell'em to buy sth for ur buttpain. Those ppl won't help you. .. ..  |
| You can watch God Eater in 2x because it's in slow motion to begin with. |
 |
| I sometimes watch at 1,2-1,3x speed. Main reason is if the anime is quite slow paced and I'm a very impatient person. And yes, I can keep up with everything at that speed as it is not that fast. It also saves me time as I'm horrible at marathoning anything recently (I used to be able to do that, but nowadays my attention spawn sucks). But honestly, most of the time I just watch it at the normal speed. I would not condemn anyone for doing that technique..... 2x speed sounds horrible though, I doubt I could keep up with subs/watching at all xD |
| I don't understand people who rush watching an anime. Unless your gonna die in a few years you can just watch a few animes at a steady pace and finish a lot in a year. Anime is a form of entertainment, if your speeding it up a lot just for the sake of completing it then you aren't enjoying it to the fullest. |

 |
| Knowing my sister does actually that when watching anime, that was the only explaination I manage to squeeze out of her: She's too impatient to watch anime at normal speed. |
 |
| Wow, amazed this is a thing. Why do this when you can just skip whole scenes instead? Seems like a waste to rush like that, as if you're just forcing yourself to watch. |
 |
| I would just pretend that I didn't read this topic and I didn't learn that those sort of broken peoples exist.... |
 |
| I'm a weirdo completitionist but I still don't go 2x speed. I just force myself to sit through hours of crap that I don't enjoy like a good old fashioned obsessive compulsive masochist. |
 |
| I watched Mars of Destruction in 2x speed ;) |
| A year ago, I had this weird "completion complex" (I guess that's what it's called) where I would watch 20-25 shows a season, watching 2 different shows with one on 2x speed. I was only able to digest one show and then I would be not interested in the other. It ruined my experience with anime for a long time. Ever since I discovered the 2016 anime watching challenged, it made me interested in anime again and I can actually enjoy it to an extent. |

| My brother use to watch naruto episodes at 2x on youtube because of copyright |
| Anime is serious business!!! I must complete Naruto asap and not ENJOY IT!!! |

| I do this when I am like. Two episodes away from finishing the god-awful series and would rather fast-forward it just to get through it. I don't wanna have a 11/13 anime in my dropped list, though I rarely even get there in the first place. Usually I just drop them from moment one. But alas, there are some I should get through, like Bungou Stray Dogs, which is arguably the worst release this season and one of the worst releases in existence. |

Lol you say that like I care about other people's opinion on how I watch anime and how I do things. I am not going to sit through god awful series and waste my time that I could use to watch other anime more worthy of my time. |

| Some people do it to complete anime faster. In my opinion, it's completely idiotic. |
| "Because people don't have wings.. We look for ways to fly." |
| I have watched some anime at 1.5x speed because the pacing was too slow for me even though i liked the anime overall *i am kinda hyperactive*. At this speed i can still understand everything and it will be more entertaining for me to watch if the normal speed is too slow for me. Example : HunterxHunter first arc and some parts in Chimera Ant arc |
| Actually I want to figure out how to watch anime in faster way too. Y'know, sometimes I just can't stand the 'yada-yada'. |
   "Wielding one's blade out of duty alone is what it means to be a captain. Wielding one's blade out of hatred is nothing more than petty violence. That is not what we would consider battle." |
| That's really something.... I think they do that because they think it will be cool if people think they watched too many anime. You may not believe me, but there are really people out there who think that being called "otaku" is cool. |

Some guy with 200 completions > Some guy with 500 completions who does this. |
