I downloaded both versions, but I liked the video quality a little better on the softsub so thats the one I kept. I did watch a couple minutes of the hardsubbed version I thought the subtitles were fine. They looked bigger than most subs I've seen but that made them easier to read. I don't know what font you should use on future episodes, but I would just make sure it isn't too fancy because that makes them hard to read. Great job on the first episode by the way!
