Dodged a fucking bullet with Tamako

1. Tsundere?

   • Predictably.

2. Episode summary: moe fluff, moe fluff, and more moe fluff

   • I thought that’s what KyoAni was all about? The moe factor~

   • Sounds like my kind of show.

   • Sounds like an anime.

3. Dark_Sage’s just mad he’s not subbing it.

   • And the truth comes out. ;_;

     • Your predict is wrong again ( ¬‿¬)

4. That’s certainly why I’m watching it.

5. This settles it. Time to watch it.

6. If Sage hates a show it’s bound to be good.

   • I’m gonna like it, if only to see how badly groups fucked up the jokes.

     • *cough*

7. I’m probably gonna love the first six episodes of this, but I will likely get bored in the long run. I wonder if KyoAni eventually plans on doing something interesting.

   • That’s my thought process with almost every cutesy/comedy anime. “Oh Nyaruani is hilarious!” ~3 eps later~ “What in the fuck was I thinking?”

     • Like the ugly girl that date-raped you in college.

       One ep is enough. Don’t call back.

8. Best ED of the century.

9. Goddamn this show is good.

10. So is GotWoot not doing this now? I remember them saying stuff about you over on their site.

    I don’t want this show to be like Hyouka where I have to pick between the shit Commie puts out and the shit Mazui puts out.

    • GotWoot’s doing it. Consider me a guest editor who’s locked in for the series as long as he can stand it.

      • And I assume GotWoot is actually going to typeset everything? I watched Commie’s 01 and I could hardly believe how many signs they left out.

        • I dunno, haven’t watched the version that the QCs are going over. Let me see. Shopping district, stamp book, food stand, title, books sign, birds book, bath signs, prices, mid-ep title, room, something about something, the fucking phone, and the ending title. Maybe some more.

        • Update: We’ll have the worst typesetting.

      • Do you get drunk and randomly decide to edit shows, then wake up regretting the decision?

        Or are your editing skills limited to criticism and not much else?

        • No, sometimes I just edit shows to teach my lessers a lesson. This is one of those cases. My Hyobu Unlimited -Unlimited- releases are also to show editors how to make a real joke script because no one has ever done it well, ever.

          I’m just a regular fucking anime education expanding beyond the confines of this site to teach idiots lessons they don’t deserve to receive.

          • a lesson in how to not edit, maybe

            “you lowlifes” – dark_sage, 2012

            never 4get

            • It was a legitimate phrase that 8th didn’t like. Keep digging; I’m sure if you spend a couple hours on it you’ll find one or two things that bring me as an editor down to A-tier level.

              • oh, it’s a legit phrase, it’s just a terrible way to edit

                and i think you start at C and move up or down regardless of who you are

              • lel

                • Not sure what that proves other than some scripts are beyond even gods. (For those of you not in the know, what RHE’s second-in-command just linked to was Dark_Sage’s brief venture with Hadena leader Arashi as the only TL for the project, with Dark_Sage as the only editor. Apparently I can’t edit when half the script is missing; who knew?)

          • Cool story, bro.

            Will you actually do more than one episode before dropping it? Or are you just delaying the decision in the hopes people will forget you said you would edit this show?

            I hope you’re hungry because, either way, you’ll be eating your words.

            • Such venom! Hadena dev?

              • When you kick up a big stink about subbing this show, the people want results. Don’t let it turn into another Arcana.

                • What, Tamako? I’m not doing it for Whine-Subs. Whether the show gets dropped or not, that’s up to GotWoot. And they have a pretty good rep for not dropping shit. The only hyping for it you’ll see is if people directly bring it up in the comments.

                  I’m not gonna make a post that says “Dark_Sage is temporarily in a group to sub Tamako Market” because fuck that. If I mention it in a post it will be to disclose a potential bias I have while reviewing other releases/creating a TL Party. And if I feel I’m too biased I’ll beg a friend to help me out like Xythar or something.

                  You appear to be misunderstood. Your concerns about “another Arcana” should be directed at Hyobu, which is something I am responsible for as group lead. But that show will not be dropped this season because I built enough safeguards in to not let it happen.

                  • I see. I’ll be looking forward to Xythar’s review.

                    • >implying I review things

                    • I meant more as choosing what lines would be in the TL Party from a list of like… 30 or so. Fansub Reviews take too long to foist onto someone else.

                    • I think Xythar is mocking Hoseboy not you, D_S.

                    • What?

                    • i doubt that since he knows who hoseboy is

                    • I’m not mocking anyone, just saying not to get your hopes up for some kind of review from me because those things tend to take time that I don’t have.

                    • I think he thought your “Yeah, fuck you too” was directed at me. Blame the shitty way I have the comments set up.

                    • You should work on fixing that.

                    • The last time I tried, this place turned into Reddit for a night. It was pretty fucking terrible.

      • I think we should have a sweepstakes over which episode you’ll quit on. The winners will receive a My Otome DVD.

    • Yeah, fuck you too.

11. These are the kind of articles that make me go ‘…What?’. I don’t really know if you’re trying to troll (KyoAni FullMetalPanic? No), or you’re actually mad at not getting to sub this thing. But you say you’re co-subbing-sort-of this with GotWoot, so there’d be no reason for such anger.

    Give me my ten minutes of my life back!

    • Three minutes to write, endless fun in the comments! Crymore!

    • The funniest thing I saw here was Hoseboy’s repeated attempts to hurt your feelings. “Such venom!” For a non-native speaker, these are fun.

12. “No Chidori (best girl, deal with it).”

    I love you.
    I really do.

13. “It’s obviously gonna be the show of the season…”
    Not like it has anything much to compete with.

14. The animation patters and style reminds me a lot of hyouka. I wonder if they plan to animate more in that style (the way the characters move) in the future or if this is more of a test to see if they like it. Chuunibyou for example did not use the same sort of style used in hyouka so I find it a bit surprising they are bringing it back.

    • wat.

      it’s all started with K-On yo (K-On S1/S2 > Haruhi S2 > that hyouka shit > this shit). And like or hate that show, it’s blu-ray version was of great quality. Not Eva-rebuild-reference quality, but still p. great.

      anyway, whats with the childhood-friend-male character? I dont want no goddamn boys in my female moe

15. Num num, why so serious?
    Chill out people, but this just could be the best show of this season for me.
    (I’m not counting any new seasons of previous shows.)

16. Why are GotWoot and Mazui both doing this, I hate having to choose between pretty even sub groups…
    Can’t one of you sub sasami-san instead so we don’t have to put up with gg?

    • You don’t want GotWoot to sub Sasami, trust me. Unless you’re fine with having no signs typeset.

      • That would be about the same as what gg typeset.

    • I’ve heard that FFF is going to sub Sasami-san.
