| I watch naruto with 1,5X speed, because that makes the scenes look natural 1x is just too slow for naruto. The original one was okay, but the pacing for season 2 was just awful . |
In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful. | You know what I hate the most? People who aren't free. They're no more than cattle. |
| i could see myself doing that. for something i kinda want to see, but i dont want to spend much time on |
| Scream! |
| 2x speed should work on mindless anime, such as one piece and fairy tail |
| “You should enjoy the little detours to the fullest. Because that's where you'll find the things more important than what you want.” |
| No, like I just don't see how people can do this. You ruin the show your watching. |
 |
| I do 1.1x for everything besides Dragon Ball Super. Sometimes when I have to go to bed soon and increasing it to 1.2x finishes the episode by the time I want to go to bed, then I do that. Otherwise I close the laptop lid and continue the episode the next night. |
Kimura said: I know a friend who does this, no wonder he likes nightcoreI actually did try doing this out of sheer morbid curiosity. >chipmunk voices >subs flying by >music and pace ruined Yeah, no. for me nope it ruins the seriousness of the anime and it doesn't give me time to understand anything |
   |
| I do 2x speed in boring arcs in Fairy Tail and filler. So basically all the time in the second season lol |
 |
 GOTTA GO FAST I don't think I could bring myself to do this, unless I was watching a long-running shounen (which I don't do). |
TonyTheme said: Tavor said: Anyone who does anything remotely like this to rack up their anime list ... Why? Can't even string the exact words together to describe how stupid I think that is.Sounds like it's for racking up anime in their list in a quicker time-frame. Agreed. You should watch Anime just to enjoy 'en not to fill your list on a random page just to "show off" or for w/e reason they do it... |
| I'm pretty sure I'd have enjoyed Clannad way more if it were sped up 5x |
| i actually do this with certain , not all, just certain shows at 2x speed. 1- i can still understand perfectly whats going on therefore im not troubled. 2- i save time and get to watch more episodes that way. some shows arent meant for it, but i guess its up to the person, im sure most ppl wont be able to understand whats going on with 2x speed, thats ok. dont go acting like we're weirdos cuz we actually have the ability to understand at a faster pace xD , its still anime watching and i enjoy it same thing if i watched it in regular pace. |

| what the fuck?.... haha that would be hilarious hearing the japanese voices (you screaming girls) omg I'd die |
-Zeaos said: yhunata said: If you ever watch One Piece, you'll find out a very good reason. I watched One Piece normally, didn't find any problem, just skipped all the fillers, and now I'm caught with the Anime, took me 3 months though. Same thing for Bleach, Naruto, Fairy Tail, Detective Conan. one piece anime has a habit of lengthening parts that are one chapter into 10 episodes is why x2 speed is needed |
| "among monsters and humans, there are only two types. Those who undergo suffering and spread it to others. And those who undergo suffering and avoid giving it to others." -Alice “Beauty is no quality in things themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and each mind perceives a different beauty.” David Hume “Evil is created when someone gives up on someone else. It appears when everyone gives up on someone as a lost cause and removes their path to salvation. Once they are cut off from everyone else, they become evil.” -Othinus  |
| Why do I actually want to try that now.... but omg sounds like a nightmare! Can barely read subs, or maybe sit through inaudible voices, miss out on major details, get confused because too fast idk. |
| I've done it now. Well, at 1.25 speed rather then 2X speed. Tackled two episodes of Jigoku Shoujo like this because the series was SO slow and repetitive. It didn't make the experience any better. it was akin to condensing more dullness into one setting. I would not recommend it to anyone. |

Milk_is_Special said: True. I don't have this problem but i to know people that can't read subs fastmayukachan said: Reading subtitles may be difficult for some people because they aren't in their native language. I mean, I can speak and read English pretty well, but some friends of me already have trouble with reading a book in English, so subtitles isn't the best solution for them. (I'm Dutch btw didn;t know)You must read slow then. 3x+ is when it starts feeling too fast for me. |

HypocriticalDuck said: Other than Youtube very few players support it by default, but as long as the player is in HTML5 (like the default Kissanime one), you can use a browser add-on to modify speed. "Faster Video" on Mozilla, and "HTML5 Video Speed Control" on Chrome; there might be others if you search.Worked perfectly for HxH, but the videoplayer on my preferred was changed so I can't do that anymore. Does anyone know a free half legal site on which it is possible to change the speed? For advanced users such as myself, i use this nice Kissanime Greasemonkey script that also cleans ads and adds some features https://gist.github.com/crapier/91926a6353207f4524cc#file-kissanime_cleaner-user-js |

| I did it when I was watching Yumeria and man! talk about a generic romance/fantasy comedy anime. At least I won't be watching it again, so not much regrets. |
| I don't understand how anyone can enjoy watching anime at that speed. I mean, the voice, music and everything else will be destroyed. You should watch anime and enjoy it to the fullest without speeding it up. If you feel the show is slow and boring, here is a piece of advice don't watch it. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Nah, I don't want to watch anime Alvin and the chipmunks. |
| Can I be your friend? LOL For people that dont want to use VLC, I used Reclock in the past to make audio doesnt go chipmunk in MPC. But I noticed on my slow computer, MPC tend to crash and take long processing time with it. Additionally I wasnt able to speed up any 1080p video. Then there is HEVC format while I dunno why my MPC cant play properly. My only problem with in VLC is that I need to manually add the whole folder into playlist, unlike MPC where I can just open 1 file and it will auto play next file in alphabetical order. |
| Nah, i dont think sharing anime ratings in signature is cool thing. Here, stare at this pointless signature instead. |

| Basically everything TheDustyForest said. I watched the entire GS Mikami in 2x and it saved me so much time. I mostly do this because I don't like to drop anime once I've reached a certain point but I don't wanna spend so much time on something I'm not fully enjoying either. I'm glad I stayed because there were a couple enjoyable episodes I wouldn't have got to see if I dropped it, so yeah. |
Kimura said: It boggles my mind that anyone would actually do this, but there is actually one person I know of who says he enjoys it better at 2x speed. What do you say? I say that it's pointless, a waste of time. How could anyone enjoy any shows that way? What's the purpose? If the reason is to finish that show faster that means they don't enjoy the show thus a complete waste of time. Drop it is the way. Not watch it at faster speed. So ridiculous. I could never understand. |

| 1.25x speed is actually pretty doable. You can watch 4 episodes per hour that way |
 |
| I do recall fast-forwarding through Naruto to skip the fillers and arrive at the fight scenes, but other than that I see no use for the technique. |
| People actually do that?, I thought that was just a dumb meme. |
| What is it with speeding up anime? What's wrong with watching it normally? |
| I've never done it and I see no benefit in doing so except for trying to easily enter yourself into dumb list-size e-peen pissing contest, so I doubt I'll ever do so in the future. No point in embracing something I see as doing little else other than actively harming my enjoyment with what can only really be described as nothing to show for it. |

| I watched many shows at 1.3x or 1.6x speed... Normal speed is too slow and boring for me |
LightningSoul said: I do recall fast-forwarding through Naruto to skip the fillers and arrive at the fight scenes, but other than that I see no use for the technique. This one and particularly shows that you've received recommendations but it was a bit of a slow pace for me to handle. |
mhkr said: I watched many shows at 1.3x or 1.6x speed... Normal speed is too slow and boring for me And how many hours of that saved time did you just waste searching for this old thread to necro? *facepalm* By the way, that was a rhetorical question. It was asked at normal speed, so wasn't sure if you'd get it. |
 You're never too old to watch anime. If I ever stop watching anime, check my pulse I'm likely dead. I wake up with coffee & anime, I go to sleep with coffee & anime. Sorry if my sarcasm is bad, it's not my first language. |
| What is dead, may never die. This post will never die. |
Kimura said: there is actually one person I know of who says he enjoys it better at 2x speed this is not alright. you need to stop this. whatever it takes. |

| jesus i didn't notice OP was from 2013 who dragged this thread out |
| I actually tried doing that to some anime i cant really remember if it's to some naruto fillers rofl |
| I'm actually starting to think about watching 2x speed because I don't have much time watching a lot of shows |
