| I don't do it a lot I just do it when the anime is super slow and I'm waiting for it to get to a certain point. |
 |
| Nope. And i never see myself doing it. I prefer to watch my anime with my full attention. Except for long-running shounen's tho. I watch 'em while doing something else, such as eating and opening my phone. |

| No, I haven't. When I was asking the correct way to watch Jojos, somebody said if i wanted to get through it faster, i could watch it at x2 speed, which just sounds weird to me. |
| What's the point? You can't appreciate the VA performance, OST, the atmosphere, etc. And the animation also looks comical. If you just want a quick overview over what's happening in a title why not read a summary and call it a day? |
 |
| I forced myself to watch a horrible anime in 2x. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to finish. It was only the 2 last episode. |
| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Perhaps, this is hell. |
| No, if I don't like an anime I won't watch it or put something on in the background (like music) |
 _______I like rocks__  |
| sometimes i'll watch episodes in 1.5x speed if the characters annoy me |
| ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |
| I've never done that, never thought doing that and I will never do that |
| If Ufotable makes an anime remake of the Fate route and Tsukihime I can say that I lived a full life. |

  |
| I watched Aku no Hana in 1.5x speed. I'll never do it again. Regret i finished the anime in first place. |

| No that's just dumb, if the anime is slow I just drop it lol |

    |
| Sometimes.... I watched record of Ragnarok in 1.5 speed so it would feel less like a slideshow. |
| Yea but only for One Piece and Naruto fillers. I also done it for rent a girlfriend because it was just so hard to watch. I only done it for some of hxh ant arc as that arc was just so slow. That’s pretty much it. |

| You're either watching the anime with the intended speed or you're just fooling yourself into thinking you've watched it. This isn't a class where all you need is understand what's being said, this is an audiovisual product that must be consumed the exact way it was intended to be. |

| Watched over a 1000 episodes in 2x speed because it was fun experimenting and mostly I don't give a dn about va, ost.most of the va's are super Annoying especially female ones. Only story matters . |

|
| Regularly. Life is shorter than the character limit. |
| Bleach is best consumed with your ears open and your eyes closed. |
| Nope, The OST gets butchered, The voice actors turn to chipmunks, The animation gets way weaker because timing is no more, Any type of atmosphere is weakened, Editing's weakened, Way harder to appreciate story or dialogue when your brain is going at double the speed (Most of the time you just ignore what you missed) And if a show makes me lost interest in all the previous factors, I do this neat little trick, I'll let you in on it just because you're my friend, But don't tell anybody |
| I don't speak English that much, so please cut me some slack |

Not everything and everyone has the same point of view. Watching in 1.5-2x speed can actually help you a lot if the anime is in their snail pace on purpose like One Piece or any long running show whenever they get close to source material. |
| I almost never do it unless it's a recap ep. |
| My friend suggested me to do this last year when he was recommending me one piece since he's a "die hard" fan. Lmao, I can't call myself a die hard fan of something that I'll watch x2 speed. Anyways, I'm planning to start it next week and I'm never gonna do that..... And I'm |
| Nope, never. This reminds me of that MAL user who bragged about watching anime at 3x speed all the time, lol. |

That's 100% the adaptation fault for choosing to hurt the intended speed and consequently making the anime a bad product, instead of being on a hiatus or inserting non-canon episodes like any good adaptation. But increasing the speed would barely make it an watchable experience, with dialogues, soundtrack and probably even some animated scenes becoming extremely jarring. This would hurt the experience far more than just a slow arc. The right thing to do is read the manga on those specific arcs, because they have the pace that the author intended to have. |

| Yeah, many times. I don't think it was ever hard to watch for me. This style, I usually use for boring shits which're hard to get. |
| "When they're alive, you can enjoy watching them struggle. When they're dead, you can enjoy tearing out their guts. Tales are things you get to enjoy twice." |
| I see more and more people say they watch not only Anime, but youtube videos, tv series, and regular movies at increased speed (whether it be 1.25x, 1.5x, 2x or more). Personally, I watch at regular speed whenever I do my workouts, but when I'm just sitting in my chair and have my full attention to the screen, if I feel like the series is boring or too slow I'll watch it at 2x, otherwise 1.25x or 1.5x. I'm a busy person so I don't get as much free watching time as I used to, so that allows me to watch more episodes within a certain time frame. And yeah, I'd rather watch more episodes within an hour than only 2 and a half. That's just how I like to do things now, it may change in the future, who knows. In the end, I think it's everyone's personal choice to watch media at normal or increased speed. |

| When you watch anything, the director meant it to be at such a pace, be respectful of his work. If you're not if the mood, you can always go for another show or activity. |
| I only watch the monogatari series at 2x because I am an highly intelligent human being who is capable of high level multitasking. I plan to do the same for Tatami galaxy too. |

I dont get what you’re talking about? It is my own preference. Stop twisting my words. I watch it that way because of its snail pace rather than reading the manga without voice and animation but I don’t do that normally. I think you’re misunderstanding something. I don’t watch any regular show at 1.5-2x speed. I watch it normally as you imply but for shows with snail pace and nonsense dialogue and powerpoint animation I do that and it’s usually the long running show that have that. |

| I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters. If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate. Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too. My MAL Interview |
| I did it with one piece WCI, man it was boring as hell. |
| No, what's the point of watching it fast forward. Do you understand anything that happens? |
 |
| There's absolutely no reason to watch anime double speed - except if all you want to do is to gain more series watched, which makes no sense. It's just impossible to get entertainment out of something that's not enjoyed as it should be |

| Not 2x but I pretty much watch most anime at 1.25x now. 1x dialogue is unnaturally slow and 1.25 just improves my experience overall and that's all I care about. Now something like Odd Taxi or Monogatari or Tatami Galaxy with faster flowing dialogue is good for 1x. Even 0.8x for Tatami lul |
| This anime shit is addictive |
| Bro why would you ruin the experience for yourself like that |
 |
| No. That's all I wanted to say but there's a 30 character limit. |
