 >http://kitsunekko.net/subtitles/japanese/
 >Japanese subtitles for a ton of different anime shows. The only problem is that some of the subs seemed to be timed wrong when used with common raws (Ex: the Japanese subs are set for a 24 minute episode, while the raw is 22 minutes). So you might have to open them up with a subtitle editor and change the times. Regardless, you can usually use these subs with the anime you already have, just disable English subs and load the Japanese subs. For the anime subs, it's worth looking into using a text hooker to extract the text to make it easy to paste into Anki or a dictionary. (Such as AGTH)
