I can't prove it, but I literally watched the ep like you did. Switching on and off the embedded text subtitles and the CC. I understand why you find no need for the CC. For me it helps cause of accents,voices possibly being too hard to make out some words. So I like to do CC and eng dub lmao. Oh and when I watched this ep earlier today those sections had the CC subtitles. Idk why yours was so odd. But let's be real. Crunchyroll is trash this year. Ever since they been expanding and possibly cutting corners that we may not know yet of. The CC, does translate the embedded video text. But because of dialogue being spoken at the same time usually. The translation part either gets wiped or bumped for the dialogue. I can hear fine I just can't interpret what i hear always accurately. So CC helps. Oh yeah the comment could be taken either way in the subtitle part. But the rest..not really. Ep 6 and this ep 7 have been the easiest to wrap my head around. Theory to connect with your time theory..the butterflies. Butterfly effects. I think it would help your theory. I have no prior knowledge. I'm anime only as well. Now I'm wondering why they need this kid to be resurrected.

100% haha.
And yeah, I have learned my lesson for reading while waiting on a series. When attack on titan finished season 3, the manga just wrapped up so I just decided to read all of that cause I couldn't wait. Then the series came out and I regret reading cause it took all the shock value and such away from me haha. So no more that.

Agreed that the comment was dramatic. Itβs good to have translation subtitles on for translating purposes because of the mandarin for seeing descriptions, etc but talking subtitles arenβt needed. I feel like the English VAβs do a good job portraying the storyline. I do like your theory it is well thought out and I followed your line of thinking. TBH I want to complain about crunchy rolls subtitles too. They always mess something up at crucial times in the storyline. It is incredibly frustrating because it takes away from what an amazing story this is. Just be careful about reading the novel, it can be very addicting π
