I have the DVDs of The Orphans of Simitra in which the only easily-found soft subtitles are in Arabic. I thought I can get the gist of the show by reading the source material (book) first then watch the show without subs.

    I wonder if it would help to watch content where you have already watched with subtitles. So you have a rough idea of what’s going on already and your brain has more bandwidth to process the words themselves

      That is the best place to start. Also just helps you tolerate the frustration a little bit if it’s one of your favorite shows.
