The subtitles on the Chinese version are pretty fast and furious, too. But if that sort of thing doesn't bother you, I'd definitely give a shot. Seemed like a pretty solid adaptation to me. They kept the humorous aspect that I especially enjoyed from the written version.
Mr. H has the same problem. He can't see faces and read the subtitles at the same time. I mean, who can? It's very frustrating. And it's made arithmetically harder if you're trying to remember faces across races and all that, where we, I admit, struggle. I can keep most faces separate but again, not if I'm spending 60% of my time reading the captions. And Mr. H is face-blind so this is...brutal.
