9anime is a popular streaming website offering thousands of anime series and movies. However, many users have reported that 9anime isn’t showing subtitles while streaming.

This can be a frustrating issue for many users, especially those who don’t understand the original language of the anime. Fortunately, there are some simple ways to fix subtitles not working on 9anime.

In this article, we’ll share some tips to fix subtitles not working on 9anime.

Before we start, make sure that you are using the official 9anime domains, which are listed on 9anime.me. Many fake or clone sites may have subtitle issues or even malware. Also, try to use a reliable internet connection and a browser that supports HTML5 video playback.


Set subtitles to other language than English

Sometimes, it may happen that the subtitles that you select do not match the subtitles that you see on the screen. For example, some users have reported that when they set the subtitles to English, they get Dutch subtitles.

To fix this issue, just set the subtitles to some other language, then English, maybe Korean or Spanish, and then switch back to English.

This will refresh the subtitle settings and load the current language.


Download the subtitles with the most positive votes

Another possible reason for subtitles not working on 9anime is that the subtitles are corrupted or incomplete. To avoid this, you can download subtitles from reliable sources with positive votes or comments from other users.

You can use sites like Subscene or OpenSubtitles to find and download subtitles for your anime. Then, you can load them manually on 9anime by clicking the CC button and choosing Load srt/vtt from PC.

Here are the top 7 websites to download free subtitles for movies

Check and fix your internet connection

Unstable or poor internet connection is one of the most common reasons for 9anime subtitles not showing on your screen.

For one, if your internet is not strong enough, it can cause buffering or stuttering, making the subtitles load properly. To fix this, you can improve your internet connection by moving closer to your router, using an ethernet cable instead of WiFi, or switching to a different network provider.

Here's what to do if your WiFi isn't working.

Disable extensions

Some browser extensions may interfere with the subtitle functionality of 9anime. For example, ad blockers, VPNs, or video downloaders may block or modify the subtitle files or requests.

 To disable extensions in Chrome, go to the three-dot menu and click More tools > Extensions. Next, turn off the toggle in front of the extension.

After disabling browser extensions, refresh the page and see if the subtitles appear.

If you are using a VPN to access 9anime, it may also cause subtitle issues. This is because some VPN servers may have slow speed or high latency, which can affect the subtitle loading time.

To fix this, you can switch to a different VPN server or a free or paid VPN with better performance. Or, if 9anime isn’t blocked in your country, you can avoid using a VPN while streaming on 9anime.

Here’s a list of the top 7 VPNs for various devices, including Android, Windows, and Mac.

Try another device

If none of the above fixes works for you, you can change your viewing device as that device may be incompatible or has some technical issues preventing subtitles from working on 9anime.

You can also try to change the operating system. For example, switch to Windows or Mac if the subtitles are not working on Android.


Use a different browser

Another possible solution for subtitles not working on 9anime is to use a different browser. Some browsers may have bugs or compatibility issues that affect the subtitle functionality of 9anime.

In conclusion, 9anime is one of the many online anime streaming websites. However, if you are facing the subtitles not showing on the 9anime issue, you can follow the above steps to fix the issue. You can also go to various 9anime forums or join the official 9anime Discord server and ask for help.
