anki should work nativ on macos

sub2srs works great here on linux with wine(i use it frequently). i think it should work on mac too.
you need to install dotnet though. but this is no big deal with winetricks.

Hmm ok it seems Subs2SRS is pretty mandatory to learn off dramas? So what do I do exactly? Watch the videos with English subs or Japanese subs on them, then take a picture of it?

It's not. Here's my method:

1. Watch with or without Japanese subtitles depending on difficulty
2. Read script and SRS any unfamiliar words or grammar
3. Watch again without subtitles

Of course, you can adjust this method according to your level. For example, if watching with Japanese subs is too difficult, you can begin with subs in your first language and then switch to Japanese subs once you've SRSed the vocabulary and grammar.

I find Subs2SRS tedious and dislike how it fragments a drama (I prefer watching straight through), and so the method I use better suits my tastes. On the other hand, Subs2SRS may suit you better. Although this may be stating the obvious, first choose a study method that seems right for you. If things run smoothly, then stick with it. If not, try different methods until you find one that works. If you find a more effective method, then ignore whatever is popular on these forums... but share your method first!

Hmm thanks. That actually completely answers my question ^^. However, where do you find these "scripts" More importantly Zettai Kareshi heh. I found the japanese subtitles, but no the transcript.

I don't understand, what do you mean by the script? The subtitles are basically the transcript. Am I mistaken? You can just use the appropriate program to open it.

I mean like on another document basically. Where I can copy and paste the words in a dictionary. Are the subtitles on the screen all I need?

The subtitles are a text document you download, basically. They are usually in the .srt or .ass format. You can right-click on these files and select most text editing programs to open them in.

Here is an example from an .srt file opened using a basic text editor:

1
00:00:08,307 --> 00:00:19,535
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

2
00:00:19,535 --> 00:00:21,835
（うめ先生）おはよう

3
00:00:39,789 --> 00:00:42,089
（宮子）いただきます

4
00:01:02,795 --> 00:01:04,797
（沙英）あッ…

5
00:01:04,797 --> 00:01:06,783
・（ヒロ）沙英～？

6
00:01:06,783 --> 00:01:09,083
ああ　ちょっと待って

7
00:01:16,809 --> 00:01:18,861
（食器の割れる音）

8
00:01:18,861 --> 00:01:21,781
ゆのっち～　どうした？

9
00:01:21,781 --> 00:01:25,451
（ゆの）宮ちゃん　ゴメン
学校　先に行って

10
00:01:25,451 --> 00:01:27,751
えッ？　ありゃ～

11
00:01:29,789 --> 00:01:33,126
どうしたの？
大丈夫？

12
00:01:33,126 --> 00:01:36,126
沙英さん　ヒロさん　すみません

13
00:01:37,130 --> 00:01:39,730
これは派手にやったね

14
00:01:41,801 --> 00:01:44,137
ぺったん　ぺったん

15
00:01:44,137 --> 00:01:46,456
よしっと　こういうこと

16
00:01:46,456 --> 00:01:49,776
急いでるときに限って
やっちゃうんだよね

The media player/SRS program uses the timing data for each line/section to display the related text on the screen in sync with the sound.

.srt files are probably the easiest option for simply opening with a text editor, as .ass files are more complex.

Well I've been reading 赤ずきん also . I don't exactly know where my proficiency is, but I can assure you my reading level is much higher than my listening level. I really hate how I comprehend a certain sentence by reading it, but when they say it I won't be able to without the subtitle in most cases.
