Of course, it would be nice if the cheap Hong Kong sets had someone who could speak english doing the translations, but scarily, I'm understanding the Japanese enough that I don't really need the subs except to give a basic guideline for some of the less straightforward parts.

The fact that I've watched both sets with decent subs on my computer helps.

I like Trigun. It reminds me of Firefly. Speaking of which, supposedly they're making a Firefly movie! WOO!
