To be clear, I don't actually know what the percentage equivalents are to letter grades v:v:v, but I'd score HGS at about a 6/10.

More accurately observations and/or general opinions but yeah. I left off at the beginning of ep 6, and I probably won't finish it.

prolly if you're not fully deaf you'd want to listen to it in a language you understand use the subtitles for support

I think what they're trying to say is that animes with english only dubs have no subtitles at all, and no ability to turn any on.

Yes, also closed captioning isn't quite the same as subs. There's stuff like sound effects for instance.

C- definitely doesn't warrant watching 6 more episodes in my book.

enh, it depends. I put Cestvs (the anime, not the manga, let's be clear here) at the same score, but I liked the setting and characters enough to stick with it.
I'll never rewatch it, but I'm invested enough to see where it goes despite its production flaws.

the only stuff below a C- that i've watched all the way through were blue spring ride (D), and ex-arm of course

the latter for obvious reasons, the former.. idk. when you start watching a shoujo romance and get 3 episodes in you kind of feel compelled to see it through... but boy was it boring and completely unfulfilling

i don't hatewatch though. i will trashwatch. maybe someday i will watch the hand shakers trilogy

I'm always willing to watch at least the first episode of something. Maybe I'll like it, maybe I won't. :iiam:

the handshakers trilogy is tragic because coppelion was another gohands thing that was very endemic of their style only it actually looked pretty good

helps that the show took place in an irradiated bombed out city so the weird lighting actually made sense

the idea of a third hand shakers is too powerful to exist sadly

i think gohands are down & out after the tokyo babylon snafu so we might not see a new show from them for a while, alas

Yes, it has Subtitles/CC->English(US) (or whichever dub language you're watching) as a menu option but it doesn't sub any of the dialogue/other audio, it's just for signs.

why bother watching that mediocre western crap when there's a lot of way better western shows that are roughly similar that came out recently like idk amphibia or owl house instead

Cause I'm too cheap to pay for any other service right now. :banjo:

The only show that looks remotely interesting elsewhere is Foundation on Apple TV+, and I'm not going to sub until it's fully uploaded.
