audiobooks are easier for me to understand

hearing dubbed anime makes it easier for me to take in the scene

people say it isn't that emotional, but I can just use the context to gauge the emotion

Some people retain information better through reading rather than hearing. I'm one of those.

I prefer hearing.

But I prefer not missing anything simply because I couldn't hear it more.

I've liked audiobooks when I have the time for them, but you're talking about quadrupling the time to consume them. They're great if you can multi-task during a commute or work, but definitely nothing I'd listen to in my spare time when I could just read instead.

I agree with you. I don't see the love of Sub over dub. I am watching a fast moving fight and we need to read the trash talk. That is just something I don't like.

Supposedly you retain even more of whatever you're taking in if you read it and hear it. So maybe just use subtitles as well as english audio and you'll never forget anything, well, something like 70% you would retain.

I wish Bakemonogatari was dubbed

they had really fast moving scenes

with dialogue

would be cool to have it in English

Same. Also I fucking can't stand audiobooks (despite the fact I have an audible account I really should cancel) because I'm talking all day at work and I can't even just listening another person's voice is strangely Tiring as opposed to reading at that point. Reading is more peaceful for me
