It's stories like this that make me glad that I lost interest in anime in like 2004 and didn't get back into it until about a decade later. The period in between that time, when TV anime in the west was slowly dying but legal streaming sites like Crunchyroll weren't around yet and people were relying on DVD's or slow fansubs of questionable quality... I can't even imagine what being an anime fan during that time was like. It sounds like hell.
Ehh, Crunchyroll had been a official distributor of some anime since 2009, but official subs for niche shows like Precure are fairly recent starting with a bad dub of Smile and Doki Doki called Glitter Force, which I think only did half of one season. So the series was completely reliant on fansubs until KiraKira was launched on Crunchyroll.

Honestly the main crutch for watching anime prior to Crunchyroll going legit was load times. I'll have you know back in the old days it took me several minutes just to load some flash games, let alone stream fansubs that you stumbled across.
