Most people think speech or song in languages they do not understand sounds strange. Some find it amusing to add their own interpretations or "translations" to such sounds, and the internet makes it easy to distribute. Thus the Gag Sub, which is much easier to create than redubs, is born.

Dattebayo fansubs released an episode of Bleach subtitled in Ebonics. (i.e., African American Vernacular English)
They also released an episode of Soul Eater that was "translated" by someone who couldn't even understand Japanese.

The fansubbers of Hikari Sentai Maskman, CSCentrl, take potshot of Okelampa's Catch-Phrase "Yare yare" (a sigh of exasperation with many fitting translations; if you're a fan of Haruhi Suzumiya, you know it as "Good grief!") after he does his duty, and make him say things like "I need a raise", or asking why the Maskmen never shoot him first, or more ridiculous lines that cannot be contained with mere "Yare Yare". Episode numbers have been mentioned. Because of this, the whole thing is often mistaken for a Gag Sub, on the assumption that such a gag wouldn't be used by people who were trying to translate the series properly at all. However, it turns out everything but Okelampa's "Yare, yare" is translated normally; another group has since done the series and all the dialogue comes out pretty much the same, but with Okelampa's catchphrase rendered as "I feel tired." It's hard not to feel like your favorite character is missing...

The Fullmetal Alchemist capsummaries from inulovinkit count, though they are done in blog format. She has recently started making videos like abridged series, but done with subtitles instead of voice acting. Alas, the capsummaries stopped at Episode 54, last updated in 2010, and, by the look of things, will probably remain unfinished.

Metroid: Other M, the reMovie, a Director's Deleter's Cut of Theatre Mode. Amongst many hilarious changes, the Head Quarantine Officer becomes a Memetic Molester, Adam tries to get the rest of his GF team to catch him a wild Choogle as a birthday present, Madeline Bergman is an old flame of Adam's that he and Samus thought they'd killed, and Samus decides to go for a low% run just to piss off Adam, who practically begs her to use her items.

The Collector's Edition DVD of Monty Python and the Holy Grail includes a subtitle track composed entirely of lines from Henry IV, Part II, called "Subtitles for people who do not like the film".
More famous are the fake Swedish subtitles in the movie's silly opening credits, which start out fairly literal ("Mønti Pythøn ik den Hølie Gräilen") but then become completely irrelevant as the credits get more technical ("A Møøse once bit my sister...")

Gag subs of the first episode or two of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon were released within a day or so of their broadcast. Among other "revisions", these subs referred to the youma as tentacle monsters and characters broke the Fourth Wall several times to comment on how badly the show would traumatize children. They also included gag-subbed commercials, too, including what was apparently originally a Japanese McDonald's ad that was already somewhat weird owing to the somewhat constipated look on the Japanese "Ronald's" face... even before the pedophile joke in the subtitles came at the end. In fact, that particular gag sub also featured at least one other commercial with a pedophile joke, for children's underwear at a local department store which featured a cute little girl whose line was "translated" as "They're pedolicious!".

There are literally hundreds of gag subs of a scene from Downfall in which Adolf Hitler et al are arguing about absolutely any topic under the sun, almost all of them wildly anachronous by having him rant about modern inventions and events. Listing them would almost certainly devolve into a huge Wall of Text, so just look them up if you want to. The only examples that must bear mentioning are the meta-ones where Hitler gets annoyed at people gagsubbing him, of which this one is but one example. The movie's director has admitted to cracking up at these gag subs. The Memetic Mutation has actually gotten to the point that multiple spin-off series exist, many of which are based around putting other characters in similar situations that often affect Hitler in some manner. Among them are the Stalin Parodies (centered around Joseph Stalin and his crew), the U-Boat Parodies (which turn the cast of Das Boot from a group of sympathetic Germans trapped in a war they don't understand to a group of lovable rogues who enjoy causing trouble for Hitler), and the Gaddaffi Parodies (where Gaddafi gets put into similarily humourous situations). There's even a spin-off channel based on Kit Kittredge of all people.
Even fellow American Girls Samantha Parkington and Felicity Merriman were no exception to the parodies, with the latter being turned from a caring Revolutionary War-era girl into a merciless Screwy Squirrel in the vein of Fegelein, from kicking Hitler in the testicle to even beheading him. Other characters from various canons were also involved, from historical people such as King Leonidas, to pop stars like Justin Bieber and Rebecca Black.

The notorious "Whitney Lies Version" of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children is considered to be more comprehensible than the actual script. Its highlight was probably the "bee noises" scene.
Another AC parody, Advent Fanboys, turns the Sephiroth clones into Spirits Within fans trying to prove it's a good movie. Other noteworthy additions include orphan-eating commentary and auditions for a Cloud/Tifa porn video.

Death Note:
The Gag Sub School Note does this both ways: it translates the show's second opening "What's Up People?!" into to something completely insane(er), and then performs a Genre Shift on the show, turning it into a school love comedy. Light becomes a complete moron who can't do basic arithmetic without the help of the titular "School Note" and talks about "going to Tokyo U". L becomes a geek who plays Dating Sims and has MC Hawking on his computer.
The Yaoi Note series: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.
This is what happens when Light plays Halo...
Just according to keikaku. (TL note: keikaku means plan).

Pani Poni Dash! uses this in episode 22, where a TV crew comes to film the various classrooms for a popular late night show, and class 1-C has to convince Becky to show up for it. It also frequently switched into an isometric RPG view, complete with text boxes and character portraits. By the end of the episode, it does one last RPG switch, but while the class talks about Becky finally deciding to show up, the text boxes are carrying on a completely different conversation about weight loss advice.

When Kamen Rider Dragon Knight was dubbed into Japanese to air in Japan, someone on 4chan's /m/ board subtitled the first episode in the format of every character speaking in Cockney. It starts off rather simple, but by the second half it devolves to the point that anyone who doesn't know cockney slang won't know half the words being said in a sentence. Type I because they were still technically saying all of the dialogue correctly.

Clips of the claymation cartoon Pingu, where all the characters are voiced by the same actor and speak in expressive gibberish, have been treated like this several times. One relatively innocent English-language example had the penguins suddenly live in a communist society. There are several others with subtitles in Swedish that are full of crude jokes. Hit Entertainment is embarrassed.

An example of an official gag sub occurred in Zoku Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei's second episode. All the dialogue was turned to gibberish, and subtitles were added on, turning an already insane plot into nonsense about the Dragonballs and space aliens. Many viewers were confused by this.

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series:
Episode 9 begins with a gag sub of the real episode from the Spanish dub.
Epsisode 10 has a particularly well-done series of images from the series to the theme tune of Neon Genesis Evangelion, with subtitles that make the song about card games.
Said sequence was an attempt to make a new theme for the show. Fans did not like.

Common in (f)animutations, who're widely hailed as the spiritual predecessor of Buffalaxing and Misheard Lyrics videos. Examples include French Erotic Film, Earth vs. Funk and Irrational Exuberance.
The infamous We Drink Ritalin is a variation on this. It actually is in English, but it's English so heavily accented and nonsensical that it sounds like what's in the subtitles, not what the lines are supposed to be.

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny saw one Rickroll-style gag sub episode released in the middle of its run. Fansub group "Cellphone^2" had done straight and decent enough subs of the first 39 episodesnote Incidentally, one side of the Broken Base likes to pretend that the show only has 39 episodes anyway, but after a few weeks of competing with HaroHaro (the well-regarded group that fansubbed the original Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, which had gotten back together as of episode 21) they disbanded. Then there was a surprise release of episode 40 by Cellphone^2, indicating that they'd reconsidered their disbanding. For the first couple of minutes, everything was properly translated...then it abruptly went into absurd Gag Sub territory, with lots of memes thrown in like a line about doing a Zerg Rush.
Not surprisingly, members of Cellphone^2 later became some of the founding members of gg, a contemporary fansub group widely known for their Fun with Subtitles antics and Trollish tendencies.

Noah 'The Spoony One' Antwiler and Lewis 'Linkara' Lovhaug's collaborative effort to make some sense of former pro wrestler Warrior's insane ramblings in [[httpfuhrer://www.spoonyexperiment.com/2009/05/21/atop-the-fourth-wall-warrior-1/ this review]] is represented through gag subs, wherein Warrior becomes much more eloquent and video game reference savvy.
Later on, The Nostalgia Chick made Gag Subs for her review of The Lorax.

The Chaser's War on Everything got a lot of mileage out of Gag Subs of footage of a foreign leader considered controversial, such as Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden or Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, commenting on the latest trends in popular culture.

After Top Gear dropped a piano onto a Morris Marina allegedly belonging to Carla Bruni (the wife of the French President), we get the following subs over one of her songs:

GoGo Sentai Boukenger The Movie: The Strongest Precious gets rewritten into Operation Overdrive: A Power Rangers Movie -- The Bitch's Betrayal. Apart from rehashing the theme of characters interacting with Bandai (this time to prevent them from releasing Bowdlerised toy molds), this one combines both types of Gag Subs by overlaying the movie's opening theme with misheard lyrics (but leaving any Gratuitous English intact), including a spot-on lampshading of the genre:

EmoChickWOAM made one of these for Cirno's Perfect Math Class note An...interesting Fan Vid set to a song by IOSYS, starring characters from Touhou. Because the original wasn't weird enough. note To elaborate: The gag lyrics turn what was a song mostly dedicated to making fun of Cirno, and change it into her listing some rather lackluster ambitions (Living in Maine, Learning Korean, and being Vice-Manager of an Arby's.) Protesting that the backup singers sound like men, an explanation of the plot of No Country for Old Men, some racially insensitive comments, things that paint Cirno as a staunch conservative, plugs for 5 Hour Energy, the list goes on.....

Little-known anime Massugu ni Ikou had a gag sub, the first part of which can be seen here (unfortunately, it seems the other parts have been taken down). It takes a heartwarming slice-of-life series about dogs and puts a much darker spin on it, including jokes about slavery, violence, and bestiality. You heard me.

Scott Manley decided to Let's Play the Youtube Caption Generator on one of his own videos. In his case, his Scottish accent and use of technical terms confuses the subtitler even further.

EarthBound gives us an English to English version happens with Pollyanna. Made better since originally the writer was originally trying to simply figure out the real lyrics. After hearing the writer gave up and typed what he heard, no matter how strange (e.i. "I believe in ramen sex").

One gag sub had references to numerous anime (including a mildly obscure Martian Successor Nadesico quote) as well as changing every single line into a hilarious parody of the actual script, without losing anything major from the story.

Official example. Funimation's already tongue-in-cheek dub of Sgt. Frog contained a new "character" made especially for the DVD release, "Mister Caption", whose job was ostensibly to translate the copious amounts of onscreen Japanese text, but instead spent much of his time insulting the Lemony Narrator, the characters, and the viewers. Though his appearances became less frequent as the series went on (replaced, sadly, by proper captions), in early episodes it was not uncommon for Mister Caption to start snarking even when there was no text on-screen at all.

There were various gag subs with Super Smash Bros. Brawl 's main theme. The 3rd West version is among the most famous ("I'll be the Marth, e.g. noob"). Yeah, Nobuo Uematsu is amazing, but that doesn't mean we can't have a little fun with his music, right?
