Picked subbed over dubbed for AoT and it was rough at first

I finally sat down to watch Attack on Titan last month and had to choose between subbed or dubbed. I went with subbed because everyone says it's the better experience, but man those first 3 episodes were a struggle with reading speed and trying to catch the action. After about 8 episodes it clicked and now I can't imagine hearing Eren with anything but the Japanese voice. Has anyone else stuck with subbed and regretted it for a specific show?

Yeah I stuck with the sub for Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex and regretted it... the original Japanese voices felt flat compared to the English cast. Some shows just have better dubbing talent, you know? AoT is one where I think the sub works well though, once you get used to it. Took me about 6 episodes to stop feeling like I was missing stuff.

Took me til episode 12 to really get into the sub on my second rewatch.
