Fansubs suck. Use DVDs; buy, rent, or borrow, but don't use fansubs. They are just a big pain in the ass.

Legitimate ways to get sources such as Naruto or Bleach:
www.cdjapan.co.jp <- one of thebetter sources for ordering japanese released DVDs that is not available here. There are other sites aswell, google them.
Theres the option of HKs, but theres 2 problems with this. HKs don't support the original artists in anyway, and often times are garbage quality anyway. Sometimes you get lucky with descent quality, but often times not. I don't recomend this way.
If the show is very new and is not available on DVD here or japan yet, of its a popular show (such as Naruto and Bleach) often times it is fairly easy to find Raws (files that people record from broadcast for use by the fansubbers, but get distributed as is without being subbed first) that are sometimes descent enough quality to use. I can't tell you how to find them on this site, it will break the rules, but use your head, its not that hard to find them.
Ofcourse its always preferable to purchase or at least Rent the DVDs if they are available before resorting to any of the other methods.
