Feels kinda reachy with this insult, mate.

Nobody is going to be able to learn Japanese just by watching anime, or any language, for that matter. You might learn something, or just enough to get you started (given how well you pick up on things) but it's certainly not going to be enough land you a rating on something like the JLPT.

And no they don't get the translations right. On the contrary. With the weekly seasonal schedule they have to pump out translations on a deadline and is often changed by the time the dvd release comes.
Dunno about this one, mate. I normally watch fan-subs and those are pretty accurate. Many industry translators actually start with translating manga/anime and other content. I don't doubt that accuracy can be spurious in some instances, but asserting that it's barely accurate is just wrong. But how would I know? It's not like communities aren't quick to catch on and correct these things, or anything...
