I got my new 300-gig HDD set up for external use, just in time for the summer season. As of my writing this, I’ve watched the premieres of three shows, raw. Now, I usually don’t watch raw anime episodes. But…I’m anxious of some reason. I know I could wait for the sub groups make the karaoke graphics along with translating the dialogue, but I got impatient so I decided to dive right in them.
Since I don’t really know conversational Japanese, I only understood the broad details that could be gleaned from visual cues and select words I recognized. I’ll definitely watch the subbed versions of these shows in order to get the full effect. For now, courage.
