1. Chihiro did Memochou as well. Though they seperated the OP & ED from the main file which I haven’t seen in a long time. Not saying it’s bad but I’m not too keen on it either.

   • Yeah, I haven’t asked Kristen about that, yet. I would hope it’s only for ep1.

     • Well in the past when this happened-since other groups did it too like 3-ish years ago-they’d just release the episode without the OP & ED since you already had them and link the episode to them.

       I guess unless there’s an update, we’ll only find out by removing those two files which result in less time, or turning the option off in Halli Media Splitter.

       • Yeah, that’s probably it. I don’t like it, but what can I do about it? I’m just a lowly peon.

         • Chapters make the file size smaller, which makes downloads easier for poorfags without broadband.

         • Ordered/linked chapters, to be specific. Although I’m still of the opinion that anyone who can’t afford ~500mb per episode should probably just time travel back to 1998 where they came from, so they can get all the 50MB RealVideo encodes they want. And I say this as someone who lives in Australia, land of the worst internet connections ever.

2. i think Horriblesubs did R-15 too

3. Hey, you know Ayako re-did Ikoku Meiro. The v2 is like a totally different show than their first one.

4. I only noticed one problem, though it is their fault.

   Ikoku Meiro no Croisee was dropped by Ahodomo and IB which is see was still your recommendation out of the three choices. I guess Ayako is tolerable, but I do agree with your choice of IB.

   • IB dropped it? Uhh, link to your source?

     • It was on their own site though I am on so may sites I can’t be 100% positive, Ahodomo still is giving it up according to this post http://ahodomo.net/post/62/#content which I do see you have crossed off your list.

   • IB’s site doesn’t say it, so unless it was mentioned somewhere else, like their IRC if they have one, they haven’t dropped it yet. They would put that information on their site though.

     • IB didn’t drop Ikoku Meiro no Croisée.

5. gg will do a V2 of Mawaru Penguindrum, I heared rumors about change in the edition too, re-review EP2 or EP1 V2? About No.6, exist the Horriblesubs version too (but don’t have sense review that I guess). And AFFTW (Itsuka Tenma) only grabbed the NicoNico video and subs and reencoded (or at least that I heared).

   • AFFTW is still technically different from Derp so it’s still worth a review. Plus their 720p encode is good quality, not bad at least, but it’s not an upscale.

   • AFFTW didn’t take the NicoNico video, I’m their editor and I can say that we did everything from scratch.

     Also, there’ll be a v2 out today to fix a few script errors.

     • Aaah, all right, sorry for the misundertanding.

     • You’re a DDL site. Stick to that and stay out of fansubbing, because you’re damn terrible.

       • Thanks. I only joined the group last week, after seeing their release of Morita-san. I’m hoping to help them improve.

   • Gotcha.

6. Hey Dark_Sage, SGKK is doing Baka to Test also. We should be releasing today (just got a tl sat night). Hope you enjoy my edit more than the twisted abortion that was Toriko. :)

7. AFFTW Translator here… Yes it seems that some of you don’t really like our subs but what can I say? Everything is up to you. We may not do well on certain episodes because of some problems but the main reason we didn’t do so well on the first episodes is because we weren’t familiar with the story yet. And so, and the episodes go by, things are bound to get better with our subs.

   • I think the issue is your group lacks a REAL editor or your editor lacks that degree of passion towards their work. No offense.

8. awesome stuff. thanks a lot

9. Thanks alot, this website really helps :D. I think Doki is doing Baka to Test as well.

   • Baka to test is an sgkk-doki joint

10. Oh, we get a re-review for KamiMemo?

    Makes me wonder if it’s worth releasing the v3 script I have on my computer… seems I was a bit hasty with the v2 and there were still a good deal of things I wanted to change.

    Unless it’s for ep 2, which I won’t be around for anyway.

    • It’s for episode 2.

      • Oh well. : Out of my hands, then.

        I’ll go remind Holey that there’s no pressure.

11. whynot did that uta 1000% show

    add them when u can

    • I will review their 02. 01 won’t be reviewed for various reasons.

      • Why not?

12. You should review WoodBridge’s Usagi Drop when we release it. I’m the new editor for it and I’ve read your fansub reviews. I’ll be too scared to make mistakes. Haha :D

    • Of course I will. I’m the editor for WoodBridge’s Ao no Exorcist, after all. You may not have seen me in the staff chan, I guess.

      However, since I value my objectivity, I won’t go easy on you just because we’re in the same group. Prepare yourself.

13. For “Baka to Test Season 2”, Doki&SGKK are subbing that anime as well, could you review their release as well?

    • Yup.

      • Thank you.

14. I wonder, by any chance are doing a review of evetaku-matv [email protected]?

    • That joint dropped it. I think MATV decided to release the next episode on their own.

15. Just food for thought… UTW/Underwater (as Chibiki) is doing [email protected] also.
