You can download the subtitle files and use the VLC video player to play the video with the subtitles overlaid. I think, in general, these people are getting the video media via bit torrent. A big bonus: you can open the open source subtitle files in a text editor, so you can look up the kanjis, or copy and past the text to your SRS. http://www.localizingjapan.com/blog/2011/05/04/japanese-subtitles-on-videos/ http://www.d-addicts.com/forum/subtitles.php#Japanese http://www.d-addicts.com/forum/torrents.php  There are communities of fans of various Japanese media, who make open source subtitles.

And I confess. I'm another one of those people whose reading ability is light years ahead of my listening comprehension. It is very frustrating. With subs I get the gist, and sometimes I completely understand. With audio only, I fall asleep. www.youtube.com/user/hamatimejirotubasu

The process for obtaining them may be a little tedious, but it saved me tons of money. So here we go: Usually when I buy J-Dramas I buy the Chinese version because they are much much cheaper, but I was getting tired of the Chinese and English subtitles... So today I decided I wanted to buy the Japanese version of 電車男 for the original subs. However on Amazon, the lowest price for the DVD was around $150 (YesAsia was asking for a freakin' $280!) So I was like, "Okay, there's gotta be a cheaper way...," and sure enough there is! Here's what I did: 1) Found the episode (in a movie file) with no subs. 2) Looked for the .idx and .sub files for that episode together. 3) Made sure VobSub was installed to my computer. 4) Placed the episode, idx file, and sub file all in the same directory. 5) Made sure that all three files named the same before the "." (i.e. Densha_123.avi, Densha_123.idx, and Densha_123.sub) 6) And then I played the movie file in Windows Media Player, and I saw J-subs! Disclaimer: I just figured this out and haven't really messed around with it too much. And also, this discovery may have been already mentioned on other posts so sorry if I'm repeating them... Anyway, I hope this helps someone, man. Khatzumoto,

Also, it has a deaf main character and whenever people talk to her they speak kind of slowly because they're using sign language at the same time, which gives you more time for processing and reading the subs. Also, I'd recommend this show to anyone who knows BSL (or other sign languages, I imagine). After a while it gets easy to pick up signs and the structures of spoken Japanese and signed Japanese (and BSL) appear to be very similar (unlike BSL/English), so with those characters who sign and talk at the same time (Kai, mostly, but he has lots of dialogue), what they're signing is usually what they're saying, as far as I could tell. I found that very helpful for picking up new vocab. Thanks for this amazing site, Khatzumoto! I found another show with exact subs, オレンジデイズ.

I also have noticed that most of the Studio Ghilbi productions do have subtitles and audio in both Japanese and English, but you go through those very quickly. As a fan of anime, I am deeply saddened that only few of them have Japanese subtitles. I think they are missing out on a big market for students of Japanese...
