Why nobody talks about watching anime at 1.5x speed for recaps
After 3 weeks of falling behind on weekly shows, I tried bumping my player speed to 1.5x just for first episodes of stuff I wasn't sure about. It works way better than skipping because you still catch the plot beats, just faster. I cleared 14 episodes from my backlog in one evening in my apartment near downtown Columbus. Has anyone else tried pacing tricks like this for seasonal overload, or do you just drop shows cold?

Watching at 1.5x isn't really the same as catching plot beats though, you're still speeding through the actual content so you miss the pauses and reactions that make scenes land. It's fine for recaps but for first episodes of a new show you're basically gutting the vibe before you even give it a fair shot lol. 2x is where it gets real cursed.
