After watching my weekly shirokuma episode I decided to watch it with subtitles. I felt like I just didn't get enough of what was going on, and felt bad about it. (After all, it's just a kids show, right?)You shouldn't feel bad really. Personnally I almost never watch something without subs, and while I reckon Shirokuma is one of the easiest anime out there I always end up looking up words (and sometimes a lot, especially when he does a lot of puns); it's much harder to look stuff up without subs (granted when you watch without subs understanding everything is not the goal).
A great example is
常勤パンダ
The main character keeps on calling one of the other panda's in the zoo that. It was only when I saw it in English subs that it clicked, I looked it up, saw that it meant "full time employment". It's now an easy card for me to get right.
