The most popular anime streaming site outside of Japan, Crunchyroll, hasn't had hard-subs.... in forever. You can watch any of the shows in their original Japanese or available dubs without subtitles.
I'd be willing to wager Netflix, which has a fair amount of anime, can do the same.
What site(s) are you referring to?
- charcircuit 1y agoIt looks like they now offer the option on some content, but it automatically defaults to English and you have to manually turn it off each time. That's a step in the right direction at least.
- vunderba 1y agoI think it just defaults to the user's OS language (iOS, browser). Fortunately once you turn it off (or set it to another language) - that setting will persist so you don't have to constantly change it back. I flip pretty frequently between Chinese and English subs and it'll remember the last setting between episodes / shows / etc.
- charcircuit 1y agoIt didn't persist when I tried it out for what it's worth. Maybe that is a limitation of the browser version.
