I noticed that I check SZ before I check anything else, including my Facebook. A little strange...

If by gifted you mean waking up with a sticky wet substance around your genitals, then yes!

Well you learn Japanese from watching Anime while awake so why not have fun while learning? ;)

Subtitles teach you aproximate translation in your language, not having them; you have to work it out, thus having to get thru the grammar and syntax. Simply translating "Arigato gozaimasu" to "thank you" tells you one thing, it essentially means "thanks".

What does "Gozaimasu" mean? How about you see "Ohayo gozaimasu" translated into "Good morning"? It makes you think for a second.

It's the same with the honorifics, "Nakamura-kun" (中村君), would be "Mr. Nakamura" and so would "Nakamura-shi" (中村氏). But the former is a casual honorific often used in workplaces and social settings while the latter is reserved for formal writings and speech. It's seldom taken into account with subtitles.

Or at least that's how I understand it, from not reading subs...

Subtitles never do Japanese justice...

(Sorry for the essay, by the way - I'm Studio Zero's resident windbag)
