I have just watched a couple of fansubbed shows but the fansubbing was actually better than ordinary subbing. Mostly because they translated more and did not limit the number of characters used per time unit. The show that had very good fan-subbing was Lucky Star and a show I can recommend very much. Brilliant humour especially if you know a bit about the manga/anime fandom in Japan.
