Preference Question

Question! We've done this both ways in the past, so I'll take a popularity poll:

If the video format is such that the English dialogue subtitles will not fit neatly under the Japanese character introductions which pop up from time to time, which do you prefer?

(1) Just let the dialogue cover the Japanese names. After all, the names will be clearly visible in the new Romaji character introductions we add.

(2) Put the dialogue subtitles off to the side or top of the screen so that they don't cover the Japanese, even if it means our eyes will have to jump around mid-conversation.

Thanks!
