This is such a fucking brilliant idea.
It happens very rarely, but I do have them on occasion.
Can you make the Seasons collapsible? Like a spoiler tag.
Otherwise there’ll be a lot of scrolling after a couple seasons. ;)
Try anchorlinks instead.
Nice idea, the only thing that is needed would be to load the shows directly inside of this page without loading a new one. Somewhat like a combobox.
wow impressive. this looks awesome DS
Don’t thank me. Firebird of Hiryuu Fansubs did it for us. Gotta love that guy.
Sweet shit, bookmarked.
dudes~ commie dropped r-15 anyone can recommend an alternative?
my recommendation is that you stop watching such a shit show ┐(￣ー￣)┌
does anyone have a recommendation for deadman wonderland? Cuz there are only 2 fansub reviews here but there are like 4-5 groups who did it.
Today? GotWoot, very slowpokes, but they are now in the episode 11 of 12.
ah thanks a bunch.
sorry but I had one more question, can you give me a recommendation for Naruto/Bleach/One Piece and Fairy tail? Would really really appreciate it.
Naruto -> Taka
Bleach -> SGKK
One Piece -> Yibis
oh u animegio.
Naruto -> Horriblesubs
Bleach -> Horriblesubs
One Piece -> Yi- Horriblesubs
Nah, I thought I’d name some ‘real’ fansubbers ;)
Yea that’s exactly what I wanted.
I just wasn’t sure which one of them are actually better than horriblesubs aka crunchyroll’s subs
This is great. Now i know that my choices for fansubs group didn’t goes far from A to C.
Hey DS, I was wondering you could tell me know which would be a wise choice between
REVO
THORA
Coalgirls
for Karigurashi no Arrietty
Those are encoding groups. They take the subs from fansub groups, re-style them, and then mux them onto their own dvd/bluray encode.
Even coalgirls?
Usually: Yes.
How about WoodBridge for Ao no Exorcist..?
That’s Sage’s group.
Hi, aoi. Where can i find WoodBridge Ao no Ex release (not the torrent as no one seeding)?
Well, it’s actually Siao’s group. I’m just in it.
I can’t believe they don’t have a seedbox. Keep those torrents going erie, I’ll have siao move his files to my seedbox later tonight.
>that feel when there’s finally a single URL i can point to whenever some derp asks “which subs?”
Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone could tell me the best fansubs for naruto shippuuden. I’m thinking:
1-92 dattebayo
rest taka
is that good?
also I was wondering, does anyone remember what resolution dattebayo released the first episode of naruto shippuuden?
Taka is always a good choice even if their members are quite literally man children.
lol. I see. That’s good then. btw was dattebayo releasing in 640×480 at the start of naruto shippuuden? I always had a feeling they releassed 720p. ah well it was a long time ago and i can’t remember :D
btw what about tsuki or DSFS? are they any good?
No they always released it in 480p as far as i remember. coz i still have those files of DB…
OH shit. I loving this thing. Added to favorites :)
hey DS, why don’t you make each fansub group a category? so like if we click on a fansub’s name we can see all their reviews. that way we can get a better understand of their level.
well seems i kinda missed the tags at the bottom of the reviews. but yea i think it’d be good to have the name of the fansubs be a link to their list of reviews in this page
That makes sense. I’m gonna go ahead and see if I can’t do that/more reviews after work today.
Hey Dark. I was wondering, can you at least put up a recommendation fansubs for all the series of this season? I don’t really need reviews cuz I trust your judgment. All I’m asking is to just make a list of best fansubs for each series. Would really appreciate it.
Uhh, just click on a show on this page and I have a little blurb about which group is recommended. No need to read the reviews if you don’t want to.
I think you misunderstood – he probably wants just a list of best fansubbs of all the shows, including (or, to be exact, specifically) ones that still aren’t reviewed.
IMO it would be a nice idea.
Like the best fansub groups overall?
Maybe something like:
Ben-to – EveTaku
Chibi Devi – Doki or Zenyaku
Fate/Zero – UTW
Guilty Crown – Hatsyuuki-Tsuki or Commie
and so on
List of shows and best subs for each one. Whole reviews later.
It wouldn’t take as much of your time as writing reviews and it would certainly help some impatient readers of your blog.
I prefer reviews of course but you could use it as last resort in situations like this season when life just won’t give you any free time.
Hi, can you guys take sub to anime Sengoku Paradise Kiwami? One episode = 3 min. This anime hasn’t any eng sub T_T
hey dark can you do a review for episode 10 of mashiro iro becouse you will be shocking from who win there?
Hey, Dark,
When will you do the reviews for the three remaining groups / joints?
Love your work!
For what show?
Oh, I thought these comments were specific to this show. I’m talking about the Hunter x Hunter 2011.
You know, it would have been nice if each page for series could have its own comments. so we could comment about each series in general instead of commenting here and making it all clustered
Yeah, I’m no coder so I’d have to ask webmaster_v2 about that.
Comment section for each season is better rather than each series.. We have comment section in every review aint’we?
You should add Oyatsu to list of groups to review for Mashiro Iro Symphony.
http://www.crymore.net/2011/10/fansub-review-oyatsu-mashiro-iro-symphony-episode-01/
It’s there.
Sorry about that, there were no links here so I didn’t notice:
http://www.crymore.net/review_summary/?show=mashiro-iro-symphony
Thanks for the link :)
Honestly these reviews are a godsend to anime viewers, but their usefulness drops exponentially as you wait longer and longer to write reviews since the probability that someone (like me) decides on a fansub group without relying on your review due to impatience increases exponentially over time. How often can we expect a review from you?
When I get to it. I ditched my girlfriend, my step-brothers, and my best friend this weekend all so I could do nothing but review.
Trust me, I’m trying. Monday-Thursday I can’t do anything. My hands are literally tied. So I have a very small window in which to make a big impact.
I’ll work the hardest I can to make this site relevant to you and I apologize for the delays. I wouldn’t delay shit if I didn’t have to.
If you are working earnestly at them, that’s all we really need to know. So long as we know that our patience will be rewarded, we can wait for an indefinite amount of time for these reviews. Thank you for your hard work.
So THAT’s the real reason… :-P
To be fair I was also sick and still somewhat am. Monday earned me four hours of sleep and four lying awake in bed coughing.
You know I’m kidding~
^what he said
It would be nice to see reviews of:
Lagrange (finish Commie and review Underwater), GetWet’s Symphogear (as Commie is already taken care of), Ano Natsu (CoalGuys vs Commie + Hayaku incoming), Pirates (WhyNot vs Commie), DxD (big competition there), KMB (there’s some new group, Muteki there)
(didn’t mean this list to be so long, sorry, it should be all at this moment)
first
as they may be hard to decide on for us. (e.g. Another is just Underwater vs HorribleSubs, no-brainer, no need for now)
Hey, I just wanna know when you will start reviewing the winter release. And which are the animes that you’ll be reviewing.
Today (well I’ve done some already). All.
Would you do a review of Enigma Collective’s Space Pirates please and thank you?
I asked this earlier but didn’t get any response… Will you finish writing reviews for the new Hunter x Hunter 2011 show? I’ve already decided on my group by now, but I’m still interested in reading your reviews of them!
Yes. Later, though. Winter comes first.
Oh, ok. Thank you for your hard work! It is really appreciated!
Fuck.
I’ve dling Tsuki since Tidal dropped. FML.
But from the review they don’t seem THAT bad (well, I don’t speak Japanese so……)
Oh well… I’ll dl UnMabushii Corp. subs if they ever want to catch up. If not, there’s HorribleSubs… Personally dislike what they do…
GX_ST is also subbing Black Rock Shooter, and they seem to have done a good job at it (e.g. TL notes for the meanings of “Kotoriasobi” and “Takanashi”). Will you review theirs too?
As quoted from Dark_Sage from the Review_Queue:
“Edit: They did release, but they’re irrelevant. They don’t have their show on TokyoTosho. :/”
I might get around to it since people seem interested in the review, though…
But lowest priority due to that simple fact.
hi i tried to download Another episodes via the underwater website but they only seem to have script subtitles not typesetting as you described in this review. can you help??? where can you download typesetting subbed Another episodes??? Thanks!!! Also what is the difference between typesetting and script subtitles????
Typesetting is part of most scripts. Font, for example, is part of typesetting… Can’t really imagine any script without some degree of typesetting O.o.
What is it you’re talking about? Are you looking for a script with karaoke effects, because I’m watching Another from Underwater, and karaoke works perfectly for me. Or are you looking for sign translations? Just a tip to be more specific.
Hi thanks for the reply. :) i ment like the text such as for example on signs and other areas of the video not just the spoken parts if you get what i mean. :)
Maybe you should ask on Underwater’s website about this.
I think I’ll do that too thanks!!
Thank you so much for the reviews. This site has saved me a lot of time. I wish I had known about this site sooner.
Thank you Dark_Sage for your hard work.
Hi guys whats the best video player to watch the downloaded anime on?? i only have windows movie player. thanks!!!
Download and install: http://www.cccp-project.net/
Get on IRC and ask around if you still have problems.
sdsdafasdfaaaa
It works. :)
Paragraphs do aswell! I hope you’re happy.
Oh cool.
Now I don’t have to keep inserting into my replies.
I’m not sure where I should request this, so I’m doing it here. Dark_Sage thank you for everything you’ve done so far and I would greatly appreciate if you could review the following: Sankarea[Hatsuyuki], Sankarea[EveTaku], Zetman[Hatsuyuki], Fate/Zero 2[UTW] & Zero no Tsukaima F[Static-Subs].
Let me know your thoughts :D
gg’s Hyouka status should prolly be changed to dropped:

Previous seasons summaries where?
I suppose I should get on that…
Wow, posting’s really borked in this section, isn’t it?
The code for this entire site is borked.
Need/want a coder?
You volunteering? Honestly, I’d just need a few code fixes – just related to the comments on posts and pages.
Gonna test some html tags…

test1

Well I failed.
BBCode should work.
HS has been doing a lot of subs for the Fall run. Is there a serious reason that they don’t often get included with the reviews? Moral or personal issue with them or something along those lines? I don’t mean to pry, just a bit of curiosity.
Because they rip from CR/Fun and don’t seem to do much QC?
If that is the case, then no need to answer. Any comments decrying CR would then be applicable to HS.
I review fansubs, not stream rips. I’ll be doing a couple HS reviews Winter season though.
This is quite useful. Thanks for taking the time to review all of these.
Going to bother doing a fanrip review for “Boku no Imouto wa Oosaka Okan” ?
Did you forget to review Bakuman, or are you just not doing it?
Because of the former, the latter is the answer.
Kinda awkward having official subs and old subs where they are. Don’t think that movie in Winter 2013 was released in that season either.
Eh, I’ll consider it Winter 2013 since it was closer to that than Fall 2012. I’ll ask Fibi about positioning later.
The review summary is a little fucked up in more ways than one right now. I’ll ask fibi to help when he comes back over the weekend.
Fix’d. I finally asked fibi for help this weekend.
Just for explanation’s sake, I consider my review breakdowns as such:
A-tier and B+: Excellent subs. This range is what a group that has a consistent focus on quality will reach. I reserve A-tier for those subs with a certain cachet that mark them above the rest, but a B+ release falls under this general designation.
B- to B: This is where I expect most groups to be hitting. It’d be nice if everyone released A+ shit, but that’s unrealistic. These scores, while not glamorous, are completely understandable.
C- to C+: Needs some work. Generally these subs will not have been significantly edited or QC’d. Sometimes visual failings can sink a group to this level (though that happened far less this season than any other).
D- to D+: There needs to be a significant staff change for a show if your group hits this level of stupid. You can leave things as they are, but your more discerning viewers probably won’t be pleased.
F: What are you doing
I was going to make a post about this but then decided that would be retarded.
You might want to put the score breakdown somewhere a little more prominent than here, though… It’s a pretty handy addendum for those unfamiliar with the system.
Such as the “About” section
That’s just crazy enough to work.
Edit: Fuck, guess this means I need a real About page.
It’s about time.
uh, dunno where to ask but could u tell which group to choose for fairy tail??
What are the group options?
I believe apart from horriblesubs’ horibly fast release there are kyuubi and tsuki
Tsuki usually does fine releases. They’re probably a safe bet.
As for kyuubi:
http://www.kyuubisubs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/FT166.png
The edit is clearly inferior to what to what HorribleSubs had:
“If you call yourself a guild, take care of your comrades”
But since Natsu is referencing a group of people, i’d edit the line slightly more to make it:
“”If you call yourselves a guild, take care of your comrades”
Now the line is perfect. HorribleSubs came close though.
One example of poor editing (by kyuubi) is not what I would call a large sample size but eh, take it as you will.
Tsuki doesn’t seem all that impressive, actually.
http://crymore.net/tag/tsuki/
Haven’t watched anything from Kyuubi yet, so I can’t speak to their quality.
Shhh…! Don’t compare Kyuubi to HS or that annoying leader of theirs is gonna come and start whining about how their English (and translation) is far superior…
Oh, they TL it on their own? ww
Go with HorribleSubs then, Anon.
hey,can you confirm about using HR?as i’m hesitant about using their version.
i’m really confused about which group to use.bakabt has tsuki release for 720p.
If you want karaoke, better fonts, typesetting, and (presumably) better timing and a better encode, go with Tsuki.
If you want a (presumably) better script and a faster release, go with HorribleSubs.
I haven’t done a full review of these releases so I can’t say that definitively, but that’s as educated a guess as I can give ya.
As for BakaBT, they wouldn’t know quality if it raped and killed their family and scrawled its name on the wall with BakaBT’s mother’s blood.
thanks for replying.hope you will do a full review of their releases.
What happened to the Review_Queue?
Oh, right, right. Gimme a few.
Umm…there isn’t fansub’s review for Shingeki no Kyojin..??
I think it’s gonna be strict competition since commie, evetaku, gg, & Hatsuyuki placed each of their work for the bid.
Yup, you should review Shingeki no Kyojin.
Just a note, your GJ bu link goes nowhere.
It can’t be helped.
So which JoJo group should I go with? Commie because it got a B right?
Sure.
I personally recommend MMM, despite them getting worse reviews on crymore(and I trust D_S’s reviews but yeah)
They did seem to improve quite a bit and seemed to have a better script(but don’t quote me on that) and as fans of the series with a decent TL, I’d /bet/ they are among the most accurate.
Or Commie as Dark_Sage said.
I will prefer commie all the way. The amount of time all the staff is putting in this anime is impressive. Be aware the TSer is a TS perfectionist with a goal of destroying all toasters around. :3
Also, commie is going to do the BD version. ;)
I really, really didn’t like their timing, though.
