Best way to watch anime with JP sub + EN sub for mining ?

Hello everyone,

I'm curious to see what's your method to mine anime with JP subtitles (and possibly display EN subtitles at the same time ?)

I use a few resources to mine with Yomitan while watching anime.

  • first, the best resource in my opinion is animelon: https://animelon.com/ It has a lot of anime and is regularly updated, I donate to them to support their content. HOWEVER, they don't have the latest anime.

here are two options for animes that are not yet uploaded on animelon:

  • Another alternative is to download on nyaa si the raw version of the anime and use manga ocr on the displayed subtitles https://github.com/kha-white/manga-ocr The con is that I can't have the EN subtitles displayed at the same time using VLC, (do you know a way to bypass it and display mutliple subtitles ??) It's a great substitute and I prefer using this method rather than using the following other combo:
  • Find the subtitles on https://kitsunekko.net/ and download the anime on any torrent website. Sync them on https://killergerbah.github.io/asbplayer/ The reason why I don't like this method: The subtitles and video don't match all the time, and you need to manually set the offset. Sometimes you need to do this TWICE, at the start of the anime and AFTER the opening as some version might differ. And IMO it's a pain to do, I know I'm not the most patient person, but sometime I put the offset in plus instead of the minus and vice versa and I don't want to bother with timings when I just want to chill and watch anime + mine words. The effort / win ratio is so low that I'd rather read a novel rather than set up an anime with that method.

Hope that helps and thank you in advance for sharing your method !!
