Hi

Aoi Hana and Bakemonogatari are NOT dropped.

Apathy is literally the only thing that’s stopping them from getting done.

Here is the status so you know exactly what the problem is. I suppose if our staff page was halfway decent, you’d be able to figure out who to bother, but we’re seriously like a revolving door of fansubbers on each show so it would have to be constantly updated.

Aoi Hana: 10-11 @ encode
Bakemonogatari: 8-10 @ OP, 11 @ Time, 12 @ TL/SignTL

So, the shows are not “dropped” it’s just that the staff we have on them really do not care about anything.

=The More You Know=

Oh, and we’re not subbing Fairy Tail anymore.

EDIT: Lefty – Aoi Hana should be out in the next week, and probably a batch of Bakemonogatari.

EDIT: Flash Gordon – In our staff channel, time flows much more slowly (half the speed of human time, in fact). Deal w/it

Edit: Status Update

EDIT: blakbunnie27 – $$12 is at me for translating. Hoping to get that done this weekend. (the tl)

Edit: Flash Gordon (again) – It seems we’ve once again hit that “I just don’t wanna do it so I’ll put AFK in my tags for a week” snag. Expect Manimani when animeone catches up. It’s a slowness I know you’ll all grow to appreciate.

If I didn’t love Lefty so much, I’d have left this group months ago. :)

    But on that note, Kampfer is clipping along at a good pace. :3

    its not that the staff on them dont care about anything, its that the staff on them dont care about the shows, so there is no motivation.

    Now that’s really promising for the upcoming season, isn’t it? Wonder how many shows you’ll drop in the next three months.

    Hope you can finish Aoi Hana soon. Really looking forward to watching the two final episodes. Keep up the good work!

    We have yet to “drop” a show.

    October 2nd, 2009 | 4:09 pm

    nah zwill i wasnt talking about you. besides there is nothing wrong with not wanting to do a show, this is just fansubbing its not like its a big deal.

    October 2nd, 2009 | 4:13 pm

    im an annoying leecher who likes to complain about fansub groups when the group asks nothing of me in return for all the time and effort that they spend each day on their releases.

    @kimp, just for you we will be dropping all shows in the next 3 months

    Oh GOD BLESS U PPL xD

    My Aoi Hana is on d way :D :D :D :D

    No Fairy Tale, but keeping the others I guess? Kampfer, etc

  15. October 3rd, 2009 | 12:36 am

    Yes, we’re keeping Kampfer despite the fact that it’s the worst thing since Armitage english dubs.

    nikolai131, don’t worry, Aoi Hana is on teh way for sure.

    LOL, I thought it was funny. It appears that the girl of his dreams will only like him if He is a She. “tragic yuri twist” Only in anime… well, there was that movie with Dustin Hoffman…

    Also, look forward to Sora no Manimani final also.

    really too bad….
    specially since aoi hana is a great anime… (if you choose to ignore the episode they cut to boost dvd sales)…

    anyway no one can complain since is a free service; none the less i hope you guys choose anime that sparks and spikes your interest this season, i really like the work you guys do.

    May I ask why drop Fairy Tail? Also, Kampfer? ):

  20. A-Meister
    October 3rd, 2009 | 7:17 am

    Damnit! I got so tired of waiting for Bakemonogatari 8 (I even assumed you dropped it, since i can guess subbing it is a pain) that i downloaded a GG sub yesterday. I hate myself now.

  21. Dark_Sage
    October 3rd, 2009 | 10:13 am

    You poor guy.

    To be honest, I once considered watching gg’s version, but I realized that I wouldn’t be able to enjoy the anime due to all the errors that those fuckwits make in every goddamn thing they release. :(

  22. Dark_Sage
    October 3rd, 2009 | 10:16 am

    Fairy Tail was dropped because leechers are stupid and we can’t compete with [DB-gg] and Crunchyroll. Very few fansubbers will put in all the effort it takes to make a sub for only a hundred or so downloads.

  23. F**
    October 3rd, 2009 | 10:41 am

    “A batch of bakemonogatari”? cool!! :D
    If you don’t mind i want to ask a question, are you going to release BD version of bakemonogatari?

  24. Wesley
    October 3rd, 2009 | 10:52 am

    But, I heard from like A LOT of people, that Kampfer ain’t interesting. At all. May I ask what your opinion is, if you have watched number uno?

  25. October 3rd, 2009 | 1:05 pm

    What’s the status of Sora no Manimani 12? And will you guys be subbing the DVD episode?

    Once more many, many thanks for your work on that series.

    Couldn’t agree more on Kampfer. Terrible, terrible waste of a timeslot.

    On the other hand, To Aru Kagaku no Railgun is also a mix of cheesy magic/sci-fi and yuri and is much better than expected. Mazui did a decent job of the 1st ep.

  27. October 3rd, 2009 | 2:41 pm

    @Zwill:

    Thank u and everyone else inn the team :)

    —————-

    And it seems u are all on the topic for FALL season AnimeS, so here si my opinion for the subs up2 now:

    Kampfer: Great Job Hatsuyuki :)
    Railgun: Still waithing for Eclipse ;P
    White Album: Eclipse again ;P
    Blacksmith: Waithing for ur releases xD I am not a fan of gg xD

    Tegami Bachi, Asura Cryin’ 2, Tatakau Shisho: Stop ruining my shows crunchyroll >.<

    Fairy Tail: I agree, it's pointess for others to sub it when DB-gg are doing it xD

    And I can't wait to see ur releases on Fuyuu Sonata and Darker than BLACK 2 :) I am sure u'll do a great job :)

  28. Dark_Sage
    October 3rd, 2009 | 8:04 pm

    >Eclipse

    you trollin’ me?

    So, what about sora no mani2? Please release that soon before you pick up new season anime.

  30. Dark_Sage
    October 3rd, 2009 | 8:08 pm

    Read the last update. Blak will TL it this weekend. A day or two after that it should be ready for release.

  31. October 3rd, 2009 | 9:28 pm

    Thanks for the update, I’ll be looking forward to it :)

  32. Dark_Sage
    October 3rd, 2009 | 10:09 pm

    For those of you who were wondering, I just stole Red’s thunder and edited Kampfer, and it’s not bad at all. If you know what you’re going into, you’re gonna like it. And you’re gonna like our translation a lot. We took some liberties with it to make it the most ballin’ thing ever.

    Oh, and if you wanna know why Hatsuyuki is shit, just ask me and I’ll give you a QC of their script. ;)

    are you guys fighting a war or something?
    my timer dragged me out of my shell, gave me a gun and pushed me off to the battlefield today… I was taking a dunk in the bathroom~~ *joking*

    Now! curse the katana forging!! damn you!! Luke!! for forging a kanata in less than 30seconds!!! I thought you were making a transformer!!

    Looking forward to Bakemono and the rest of the fall lineup. I am kind of surprised that you kept Kampfer in the lineup, considering it’s probably one of the worst shows ever, and dropped Fairy Tale from the lineup.

  37. Dark_Sage
    October 4th, 2009 | 6:22 am

    I actually liked Kampfer. :(

  38. October 4th, 2009 | 7:18 am

    Well it’s beyond the avarege for sure ^.^

  39. October 4th, 2009 | 6:31 pm

    Awesome. I’m looking really sharp on Bakemonogatari. I’m gathering everything I could find.

  40. Wesley
    October 5th, 2009 | 2:35 pm

    Ah, I liked Kampfer as well, even though my previous comment bashed it.

    Didn’t get to see your sub, but I’ll wait for 2.

    Also, what’s wrong with Eclipse? Best sub for Fullmetal Alchemist.

  41. October 5th, 2009 | 6:26 pm

    Hehe ^.^ I’m one of those slackers the post is talking about.

    Kampfer so far is good enough for mindless entertainment. I’m a fan of gender swap as long as it stays funny (MINAMI-KE \o/!!). The male protagonist guy is ridiculously lame though.

    Bakemonogatari: if you guys really need my help you know you can always pester me, I won’t mind – but chances are I’m going to stay busy all the same;

    It would be nice if you guys did BD, so far the groups attempting it seem to come up a bit short…

    Dark Sage: how can you tell gg’s subs are inaccurate if you can’t understand Japanese? :P

  42. Dark_Sage
    October 5th, 2009 | 7:50 pm

    Kafka, how can we pester you when you’re not on IRC? You’re not even on Snax. I thought you lived on Snax!

    I didn’t say their translation was inaccurate. I said their subs are inaccurate. I’m referring, of course, to the shitty, shitty English in their subs.

  43. Klero
    October 6th, 2009 | 2:45 pm

    Please, I’m begging you, finish Sora no Manimani first. I’ve been waiting for like 3 weeks already. T_T I’m losing hope.

  44. Dark_Sage
    October 6th, 2009 | 3:22 pm

    Manimani is at timing. Fear not, fair Klero! ’twill be out eventually!

  45. October 6th, 2009 | 4:26 pm

    Hey guys, I am sorry, but can u tell me what’s the status on Canaan episode 13 at the moment???

  46. Raith
    October 8th, 2009 | 4:34 am

    What is going to be done about episodes 13 – 15 for Bakemonogatari, since they will only be released on the official website?

  47. Preston
    October 10th, 2009 | 4:48 am

    It’s the last episode, all I want is my SnM12 ;_;

  48. October 11th, 2009 | 3:29 am

    As do I, but our encoders are lazy faggots and will probably emo rage all over IRC after reading this comment.

  49. T1
    October 11th, 2009 | 1:43 pm

    I’m….well…I’m gonna get everything you do as long as it’s in avi I shall get it XDDDDD

    gg isn’t avi and the errors which don’t make it worth re-encoding to avi.

    Anyways thanks a lot for doing great shows and for spending your time on doing both mkv and avi for the animes just for the lowly leechers, like me >.> lol <.<

    Again thanks and keep up the nice work.

  51. Dark_Sage
    October 13th, 2009 | 3:49 pm

    They’re going at the speed of slow.

    We’re totally reaching our goal of 24-hour releases this season.

  52. AnimeJunky
    October 13th, 2009 | 4:38 pm

    Lol Speed of Slow xD I hope they come out soon though. I haven’t watched Bakemono since your last release.

  53. A-Meister
    October 14th, 2009 | 9:40 pm

    Saw Kampfer. Went WTF. Wanna see Bakemonogatari. The temptation of downloading gg subs is overwhelming, not to mention trying to avoid spoilers at the workplace.

  54. thsrtrshjnytjtd
    October 15th, 2009 | 8:43 am

    Thanks for the subs! You guys do a really good job. Are there any plans regarding the Bekemonogatari bluray releases?

  55. October 15th, 2009 | 4:32 pm

    T_T I know what u mean A-Meister xD I fell the same about Bakemonogatari~ And I so want to watch my last episode of Canaan~ I am telling u TYPE-MOON are the best xD

  56. Wesley
    October 18th, 2009 | 10:18 am

    I’m with A-Meister. I want to watch Bakamonogatari badly, and gg-subs are really trying to get me >:

  57. DrumKid
    October 19th, 2009 | 1:47 pm

    I don’t know where you all heard that, but I haven’t seen anything about DB doing Fairy Tail on irc or their homepage. And as far as I know gg supposedly dropped it after the 1st episode.

  58. suuini
    October 22nd, 2009 | 11:22 pm

    Wow.. I won’t lie, that did take a while.. but.. I’m still gonna download it for keepers because your group’s subs and translations are the best!!!
    so keep up the great work!
