Watching RAW or not watching RAW?

There's nothing better while waiting for your food than to write a blog post is it? To sum things up I'm dead hungry. I need a distraction. Which is why ... I won't write about food.
I'll write about watching anime RAW instead.
Don't get me wrong, I love the subs, I don't even mind dubs, if they're done right. (Though I still have some problems catching everything with English ones, but that has to do with the fact I don't practise enough)

Nowadays subs are out more or less within 10 hours after the first showing of the episode on Japanese TV. So why watch it RAW?

Because sometimes you're just too impatient?
To be honest, that's how it started to me. Everything because of this show :

You know that feeling when you just NEED to be next week already, that this cliffhanger is too awful to be true and such? That's how I was after each and every episode. So, obviously, the sooner I get to see the next installment the happier I was.

Second reason are spoilers. I hate them. With a passion.
Normally I avoid places where I could see them, in that particular case it was impossible. It's impossible for Tiger&Bunny too. As soon as it finishes airing spoilers are all over the place, some people are delicate, some are not, sadly.
(On the other hand, for Durarara, spoilers or not, I always ended up being surprised, even after the third watch so I guess it doesn't really apply)

And last, it really does help your Japanese comprehension improve. A lot.
It still depends on whether or not you're fast learner but it really does help.

On the other hand watching RAW comes with a few problems. Mostly, understanding it.
To be honest, I rewatch most of the shows with subs afterwards, except if it's really awful and/or I know the manga well enough to be sure I understood pretty much everything. Examples at hand Sacred Seven for the first and Deadman Wonderland for the second.

So, do you watch some anime RAW or not? And why?

Top5 Anime music of Spring 2011

Character songs excluded obviously, because I have a few things sitting around I've been in love with and while waiting for the first show of the Summer Season to make their way to the internet (I should have watched Sacred Seven, it airs just after Tiger&Bunny, why, just why did mother decide to bother me at this moment? *sobs*)

As usual, I'm picky, very picky, so please bear with me?
I really wonder why I bother making a "top something" considering these are the only ones I liked.

Pandemic!! - Yondemasuyo Azazel-san (Aaaw so sad I couldn't find the full version on Youtube, instead, have some Miku!)

Kagerou - Sengoku Otome

Core Pride - Ao no Exorcist

Unity - Gosick

Fade - Deadman Wonderland 



And TWO bonus.
First, a cover of Tiger&Bunny's OP because the bassist is hilarious (and the vocalist pretty good)

And a violin cover of Magia (yeah I know it's from last season but it's too beautiful, even the vocals are good)

Deadman Wonerland to be animated.

Ok apparently this is old news considering the ANN article is one year old but I thought I wasn't the only one who didn't see it.

So as usual, they're slow, very slow, but I'm glad the project finally went through. It wasn't a given, the Alive : Last Evolution project is frozen for God knows how long and I love this manga to bits.

In any case Deadman Wonderland the animation is set to start on October, which just increased the amount of animes I'm sure I'll watch next season, I'm doomed to have no life anymore.
