I'd like to watch anime (legally) with French subtitles (while not in a
French-speaking region), since I'm trying to improve my French. How can I
easily see anime that has French subtitles available legally? Some sites
(namely Crunchyroll) have non-English subtitles, but it's impossible to see
whether or not a specific series has those non-English subtitles available
until I get to the episode page (or possibly a page for the series - I'm not
completely sure).

I would like to be able to have sort of list to see whether or not I can watch
anime X in language Y (or possibly at least have some way to know this without
looking at specific entries for each series). How can this be done? With some
languages such as English or Chinese it's generally pretty simple, but with
others it doesn't seem as clear.

How can I see if legal anime subs are available in a certain language for streaming?


I have found a solution. On Crunchyroll there is a workaround to this.

## Step 1

Head over to the footer or bottom of the website. It should look something
like this >

## Step 2

From the footer, head over to languages in the footer, then head over to the
highlighted text which says 'French'

## Step 3

After this the page should reload and the animes should now be playing with
French subtitles.

Note: Not sure if it will work, but it did work for me. Have a look in the
picture below. Try it on Golden Time Episode 24.

Follow the above instructions, then [view the
lineup](http://www.crunchyroll.com/lineup). When your language is set to
French, what you can see in the lineup are the videos available in your region
with French subtitles. If you are at the lineup page and flip between
different languages at the bottom of the page, you should see different
numbers of show for each language ... for myself, in the US, I see:

Continuing Titles: English, 10; Spanish 6; Portuguese, same 6; French 4.

New Titles: English 37; Spanish, Portuguese & French, 33.

But if I accessed the site from Canada, the numbers in the French section
would increase, since a few French Language licenses are not available in
English in North America but are available in French in Canada.

Also, (1) this is just an automatic filter, so its only as good as the setting
of the database, and mistakes are always possible in setting that database up
and (2) for devices (Android, iOS, etc.) or for some titles where Crunchyroll
has hardsubs (normally in English) you need to also change your language
preferences to get the right result.
