Went from watching anime at 1.5x speed to full speed after a 3 hour debate with my roommate
For about 2 years I watched everything at 1.5x speed so I could clear 12 shows a season. My roommate caught me doing it during a rewatch of Cowboy Bebop and said I was butchering the pacing, so we argued about it for 3 hours. I tried full speed for a month and realized I actually remembered way more details, especially in slower shows like Mushishi. Now I only speed up filler arcs, but I still feel weird about the 40 or so shows I rushed through.
