themirrazz' fansubs

Welcome to my fansubs repository! Here you can find all of the fansubs I've created. All of these are softsubs; none of the files in this repository are hardsubs. Before downloading or using any of my fansubs, please go over the license file.

What are fansubs?

Fan-made subtitles, or fan-subs for short, are unofficial subtitles for a movie or TV show created by fans (in this case, mostly anime). Often, fansubs will preserve cultural nuances that official subtitles sometimes don't preserve. For example, the sentences "ヒナタくん" (hinatakun) and "お兄ちゃん" (onīchan) might be translated as "Mr. Hinata" (or just "Hinata") and "big bro" by the official subtitles, fansubs might leave them as "Hinata-kun" and "onii-chan."

How to watch my fansubs

All of my fansubs are found inside the distro folder, organized by name of the series/movie.
