RanMan20 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Softsubs because they can be turned off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowtheman Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 For me it depends upon the encodeing. Sense its subbed and I don't speak Japanese I'm not going to want to turn off the subs any way. How ever I have run into issues were soft subs were placed over hardsubs and that is vary annoying. How ever something I noticed about soft is that if the encoder knows what there doing they can encode several layers beyond the defalt allowing you to atler or change the sub style to better suite your needs.

Dman674 Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 Hard-subbed. I can plug my hard drive into my tv, and it doesn't support soft-subbed, which is mostly what I have. It's annoying to have to bring up a laptop, connect it to the tv and set it up. Also, If I want to edit something with anime, I have to convert it to hardsub. But, if my tv and video editors worked with soft-subbed, then I would love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leonidaster Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 Mainly soft subs because you can change to other languages and hard subs when watching in my ps3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon316 Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 I prefer dual audio over dubbed/subbed since you get the best of both worlds... so I'm gonna go with soft-subbed, but when watching something that is subbed only, I can accept hard-subbed also Then again like others have stated, with soft-subbed, you can can turn them off or on and add in other subs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnimeZeroTV Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 Well i only do hardsubs when encoding episodes into MP4 - Softsubs are always a must when putting them into MKV containers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reptil3 Posted August 10, 2013 Report Share Posted August 10, 2013 Soft subs if what i'm watching is a file with dual audio, otherwise it doesn't really bother me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kando Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 Although hard subs can be very pretty to look at I prefer soft subs because it leaves the opportunity not only to turn them off but also to change the language of the subs if wanted (and available).

ELeeTE Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Soft subs. It would be annoying as hell if you watched a dubbed anime with english subtitles and you couldn't turn them off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrus Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Soft subs, of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Ryan Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 I prefer hardsubs since my PS3 can't play softsubbed MP4s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandyloveme Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Soft subs. Because soft subs can be converted to hard subs with some software like Faasoft. But hard subs can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuryLiger Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 soft subs, because, as you said, if there's a typo you can edit it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redphin Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 (edited) I like softsubs for two reasons. One is the same reason others have mentioned being that I like having the ability to change the subtitles if the ones that were embedded I don't like. I live in the U.S. and like the subs to be as accurate as possible. One example would be if a character referred to another character as their name with -chan on the end and the subs didn't reflect that it would make me question the accuracy of the rest of the subs so I would download another set of subs. If the anime has hardsubs I'm screwed. The other reason is that I like to take screen captures of characters or scenes that I like and I want to be able to turn off the subs when I do that because obviously the subs would be in the way of a good screenshot. Plus, you always have the option of taking softsubs and making them hardsubs if you want them. You can't go the other way, though.
