I couldn't wait for the subs and watched the raw. Unfortunately I really need the sub to understand most of what happened.

Spoiler for ep 01, just a few:

On the issue of translating "hakushaku" as "count" or as "earl", I saw official art (I think it was some wallpapers) where the series title is written as "Earl and Fairy" in English. Also as Irisiel mentioned, the British aristocratic system doesn't have a rank of "count". In the British aristocracy, the rank is "earl".

Spoiler for ep 01, just a few: I didn't realize that the brown haired scruffy guy in the trailer was the same person as the blond-haired Earl. Once I saw the episode, I understood it of course. But up until then, I thought they were 2 different people. I really want a sub of that opening scene where the Earl is threatening the guy in the chair. Maybe the Earl isn't such a nice guy after all?
