should they? i mean subtitles tell when they mean to say but is not fully accurate. should subtitles like so they write what they really say in that order though i might get confusing but atleast then u can compare the words in the subtitle to the words they're saying.

The reason why the subtitles are a bit off is because the Japanese language does not translate directly into English. There are differences in grammar and vocabulary. It's the same with any other foreign language.
