    A little reading shows me one method of subtitling an avi is to include a .srt file with the .avi and subtitles can then be turned on and off normally with your video player. If thats the case with yours you should be able to turn it on and off or maybe just delete the .srt file. There may be other ways too but that information was readily available.

    I'm assuming you are using a windows environment. Go to start, search, for files or folders. In the search field put *.srt and make sure the look in field says local harddrives. Click search now. If any files come up in the same folder that you put the AVI file in when you downloaded it that may be your subtitles. Delete it and try playing again. Without knowing your video player I don't know how to turn them off in there.

    Dont break your head trying to find .srt .sub or any subtitle files on ur PC.
    When you downloaded that movie (probably a CAM, TS or TC) It's hardcoded with the lyrics. And since its captures with a camera, there is no way to remove the lyrics, sorry.
    [You wouldnt be able to even if it came from DVD]
    What you can do is that if the movie is widescreen, and the subtitles are in the bottom black part, and it really annoys you... you can crop the video and remove the japanese subs...
    To be short, you cant remove 'em.
