?-Tier, Fansub Review, Spring 2018, Subtitle Comparison — By Dark_Sage on May 28, 2018 1:43 pm
One week later, just like I promised.
Below you can find all Spring 2018 TV subtitle options through current date. Best (or only) option in bold, purple text. Reasonings behind each decision are in the main article. Titles match MyAnimeList, but I have faith you can find what you’re looking for. Both formatting suggestions and buttjobs are welcome.

-
Ladyspo
- N/A. No subs, but it’s short and dumb enough that you can watch it raw.
-
Last Period: Owarinaki Rasen no Monogatari
- [HorribleSubs]
-
Lost Song

-
Lupin III: Part V
- [Commie]
- [HorribleSubs]
-
Mahou Shoujo Ore
- [HorribleSubs]
-
Mahou Shoujo Site

-
Shiyan Pin Jiating (all these options are awful, just pretend the show never aired)
- [N/A – Anonymous (option 1)] – Where anon learns how to become “an human”.
- [N/A – Anonymous (option 2)] – Where anon creates a release with multiple (unique) files titled the exact same thing, fails to mention the show’s name in any of them, and hardsubs blurry pink font.
- Edit: They have apparently rebranded to “FrozenFruitSubs” yet still don’t know how to name files.
- [CCM] – Where some nobody group releases only episodes 2 and 3. (srsly, why?)
- [Ohys-Anon] – Where anon learns how to put a google translate script onto a raw.
-
Shokugeki no Souma: San no Sara – Toutsuki Ressha-hen

-
Tada-kun wa Koi wo Shinai
- [HorribleSubs]

- [GJM] – Dropped?
- [HorribleSubs]
-
Usagi no Matthew
- N/A. No subs.
-
Wakaokami wa Shougakusei!
- [CabbageSubs] – A Hadena rebrand, but the show’s simple enough that you almost can’t tell.
-
Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii
- [Commie]
- [DameDesuYo] – Dropped?
- [HorribleSubs]
- [Scamazon] – Accurate name, but I think this is dropped.
Things to know:
[HorribleSubs] is almost invariably going to be a straight rip of the official subtitle options. So: Amazon, Netflix, Hulu, Crunchyroll, Funimation, Sentai, Daisuki (lol oh wait), etc.
I am unlikely to recommend a “fansub” option unless it is notably better than the official version. Fixing an error or two and adding in or removing honorifics doesn’t cut it — the subs need to provide a clear advantage to justify switching over. And if you add in errors or any annoying masturbatory bullshit, good luck.
All in all, do not expect any low-effort subtitle edits to make the cut (unless they’re short series cuz then who cares).
The Subtitle Comparisons
Lupin III: Part V (Commie vs. HorribleSubs)
Verdict: HorribleSubs wins. What an upset.
Mahou Shoujo Site (HorribleSubs vs. PAS)
Verdict: HorribleSubs wins, unless PAS can catch up.
PAS is better, but they’re not worth waiting for.
Megalo Box (Commie vs. HorribleSubs)
Verdict: Commie wins.
Not bad, Commie. Ya did good, kid.
Persona 5 the Animation (Commie vs. Doki vs. HorribleSubs)
Verdict: Commie wins.
I’ve said it before, but you’d be far better off playing the game instead of bothering with this shit. But if you have to watch it (being poor must suck), I guess Commie’s your best bet.
Steins;Gate 0 (Chotto vs. HorribleSubs vs. LostYears vs. NekomimiTeikoku)
Verdict: HorribleSubs.
Come on, now.
Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii (Commie vs. HorribleSubs)
Verdict: HorribleSubs. Never trust a Commie comedy.
DameDesuYo is DameDesuDisqualified on account of being 5 episodes behind. Shame, cuz maybe they’d have made this interesting.

Thanks, fansub scene. If you hadn’t dropped the ball so fucking hard I never woulda been able to get through the entire season like this.
