the tragic duality of spicy ramen in my experience
>>13275281probably the most egregious is that they watch stuff with eng and jap subs at the same time which is barely a step above people who think they can count sitting on their ass binging naruto with eng subs as studying.
especially if ur watching at a normal speed instead of pausing to try and fully decipher the jap subs do literally nothing. ur going to default to reading the eng subs and by the time u've finished doing that they're halfway through saying the sentence and ur not even going to be able to find ur place in the jap subs to follow along before the text changes so what's the point.
so doing something like this or the part where they say animelon is good because it has romaji in case u can't read kana yet shows that they have no idea what the benefits of these practices are. they're mindlessly consooming anything that says it's meant for studying japanese and 10% of that information gets through so they haven't started failing their elementary japanese 2 exams yet and feel well equipped to advise others
