Fair enough I guess I'll just take it as a reason to keep on trying to learn Japanese. Gotta say though, how Shin-Chan can be aimed at a younger audience is beyond me. It's so perverted!

@mac_33 Shin-chan isn't a kid's show. After it gained popularity they sort of made it SLIGHTLY more kid friendly but it's well known to be aimed at young adults. The manga appeared in Weekly Manga Action which is aimed at adults.

They were broadcast by [KIKU-TV](http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/company.php?id=4973) in Hawaii. Which was a subbed release.

I agree the show is so funny, the only way I watched it,(which seems crazy now) was because my ex would translate. Thanks for the info guys, maybe with this it'll be easier to hunt them down. I've just found some on youtube, here's the link just incase anyone is interested.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMAm17edjY8

This whole question should probably be closed as "requesting illegal or copyrighted materials" as it sounds like the OP has a bunch of raw video files, which doesn't sound terribly legal, and is looking for subtitle files to load onto them.

I doubt there are any subtitled releases of *Crayon Shin-chan*. [The show's ANN page](http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=540) lists multiple Region 1 releases, but all of them are dubbed (and don't even include the Japanese audio, except for bonus episodes).

In general, don't count on being able to find subtitled versions of children's shows - if children's shows do get released in an English-speaking country, they'll almost certainly be dubbed. After all, their target audience is children, and children aren't very good at reading subtitles.
