Legal sites for anime in Japanese (raw - no subs or dubs)?

penguin_pam

I was browsing on the internet looking for some legal sites that allow free or paid streaming of animes that are not subbed, are still in Japanese and are not dubbed. However, I can't seem to find any legal sites where I can actually find just the original animes that haven't been hard subbed. Is there a list of legal websites that allow legal streaming of the animes without it being subbed or dubbed?

Great question — answering as the UphillTech team:

On Crunchyroll, the Flash streams are all soft-subbed (well, nearly all of them, some series are hard-subbed) and relies on the Flash renderer to display them. Crunchyroll actually sometimes streams subtitles (depending on licensing) for multiple languages. You just need to right click on the Flash frame (where the video is being displayed) and you should see a list of subtitle options, including at the top "No Subtitles". Note that Crunchyroll also does HTML5 video, so browser's like Chrome which supports AVC streams through HTML5 will not use Flash. These types of streams are still soft-subbed but the local renderer of the subtitles isn't Flash, and it's probably some plugin-type video...
