^^This was the one I liked the most, until I found this:

AlternateGothic2 BT (from the same font family as alternategotno3d), this is now my favourite :)

And here, finally, is TradeGothic LT Bold...

I also completed the avisynth script... this script assumes if you're using PAL that you purged the first 13 frames to sync it to the SE! I think they're correct NTSC frame numbers?

# Subtitle file for use with GOUT-related projects.
# Please note, I have assumed you cropped your PAL image
# entirely to 720x432, or your NTSC image to 720x366 at
# this stage (and that you are adding any black boarders
# later). Variables have been used and are easily changable.
