High five. I'm almost always late to discover fandoms, so it's normal for me! I think the last time I was 'on time' to a fandom was when I got into HP around the time of the 4th book release.
Years of anime habituated me to subtitles, so at least those weren't a struggle. Lucky for me, I guess. The handy thing about subtitles is that they don't really change much from one fandom to another, save for the odd bits of vocabulary - out with -chan and -kun and sensei, in with -ge and -jie and shizun. :D
