preffered sub font
nstgc:
I have only once had ASS subs in mkv containers fail and I use Ubuntu as my primary OS. MS fonts aren't standard, for obvious reasons.
I have never, not once, seen an anime where they color the subs differently for a character based on anything other than hair color. If you want to start thinking up every possible negative consequence of prosubs versus fansubs, this discussion could quickly decline into lock'dom.
Scudworth:
I like it when fansubs give different colour subs for diff. people.
It was very useful in Shuffle as they matched them up with their hair colours.
and I off the top of my head also bottle fairy.
I can follow it much easier when everyone is talking at once.
miasmacloud:
Doing hair color-based subs is fucking retarded.
See: Characters with blond hair.
Mag-X:
I do like when they match the subs to hair color, but I've only ever seen that on hard subbed AVIs.
The most important thing is font. I want Helvetica, or something similar like Arial. I hate when they do stupid shit like bright green cursive subs.
If I don't notice the subs, they're working correctly. I shouldn't realize I'm reading them.
Hizoka003:
for me it depends on the anime, some anime just seem to call out for a special font. then there are things like OP with the way KF started having special fonts for special movies, that just really fits in that anime.
every anime is unique so i don't think i could settle for just one font/color, it needs to be what it suited for that anime
