I usually only watch the most popular fansubs like subsplease, but have noticed that scenes aren't translated the best at times.

Who are the pinnacle right now and have a good track record?

SubsPlease is not a fansub they are webrips from legal streaming sites like CrunchyRoll so those subs are from legal sources

Huh, didn't know that. You seem to know what I mean though, if you're aware of SubsPlease, any suggestions?

the thing is fansubbing is time consuming process it takes at least 12 hours for a proper fansub to be out back in the old days when fansubs are more a thing and there was a lot of fansubbers doing like 1-3 shows a season only so if youre expecting a fansubber group name to do everything like subsplease does then there is none

real fansubs are dead now a days so only webrippers like SubsPlease and Erai-Raws remains

Yeah the only fansubbing people do now is fixing the subs the streaming sites provide. They fix stuff like signs and mistakes in the sub but that's basically it. No one does "real" fansubbing anymore

I'm quite ignorant and unknowledgeable when it comes to this, what about Judas subs or Yuisubs for example, names I see often? Are they also just webrips from legal sites?

none
this is what you get when you watch the first available release of random seasonals (aka the modern/legal version of speedsubs)
just wait for a batch/bd/v2/etc... release
or fix them yourself and make a name in the subbing industry kekeke i doubt too many people care that much tho

on a related note, i saw someone posting a 'fixed subs' in the overlord 08 comment section on the torrent sitte.. and i found that weird

i only know Judas and they are what they call re-encodes or remakes they just edit the subs that came from SubsPlease for example and make them fancy or good looking as well as re-encoding the video to smaller file sizes

99% of subs on new seasonal shows on pirate sites and torrent comes from legal sources.
Fansub groups very rarely take on licensed projects nowadays.

if you are worried about accuracy, your best bet is to learn the language.

aren't they the same group, but under a different name?
You can buy lossless digital music from your favorite Japanese artists on https://ototoy.jp/.
The songs are all DRM-free and you can re-download your purchased albums as you wish.
Show your support to your favorite artist if you can!
ps. if you are looking for Japanese albums, you have to search it in Japanese (not romaji). Just copy and paste the name.

For those who want to learn Japanese through anime

Well I ain't knowing the english subs so I can speak only for polish ones [The only official subs are in Netflix and maybe in Disney+ and some individual from old tv stations/current one if there is any tv channel which streams any older shows no idea]:
Twoja Mała Japonia (top tier in my opinion)
ShindeSubs
TokyoSubs
Maou Subs
FrixySubs
Okami Subs
Mioro Subs


There are more but these are the ones which I can quickly check from seasonals, as there is very little of legal anime here so majority of anime here are illegal with non official translation(if you want to watch them in polish instead of english)

Just go to any torrent site and search for the episode and then sort by seeding and take whatever is at the top.
