Urusai urusai urusai! Sorry, Yuuko looked like Shana this week.
OK, so about this episode. The OP is literally flipped upside-down. How would you like the karaoke? We can either flip it 180 degrees with the rest of the OP, which naturally would make it hard to read (Unless you can read upside-down), or we can have it as usual, which would take away from the upside-down effect given by the creators?

Yes, let the lyrics be upside-down, since the lyrics have already been widely published and since the song isn’t that difficult to comprehend anyway. Keep the upside-down effect!
As a rule of thumb, whatever the creators intend is the law to be followed. ^_^
I would suggest following suit and making it upside-down. Most people skip over the OP anyway, and if they really want to know what is being said, they could just as easily watch it on a different episode. So I vote for upside-down.
@Aleks
Fighto!
Please turn everything upside-down. Now that I’ve seen the lyrics so many times, I don’t really care about reading them anymore, so follow the setup the creators have made.
I so do it upside-down! It’s amazing that way!
hard to read for the win!!!
upside down FTW 😀
If you want it the way creators intended it to be, you wouldn’t add anything else to it. English doesn’t need to be translated to English. You can already sing along with the other episodes, so it won’t matter if they’re not here this time. Let us stare at the unadultered graphics in all their glory. Or, I could just disable the subs while watching the OP… XP
@x04ty29er:
OMG? You skip the super amazing beautiful intro?
No way, it’s the damn best intro anime has had for some time.
upside down! lol
new ideas ftw u can try it nothing bad will happeni ALWAYS watch the intro anyway . it just rocks 🙂 even loaded on iPod just to watch it :p
Go for upside down, please. I love this intro and how artistic and creative it is, keep it’s flow.
I vote for upside-down karaoke. It’d simply suit the op better – and it’d be a nice variation. 🙂
This is a tough call because since the OP is sung in English you could just omit the OP karaoke. As I haven’t seen the raw for episode 8 yet I tweaked ffdshow to flip and mirror the video then watched the OP for episode 7 upside down for comparison. The effect wasn’t bad. I liked the karaoke being at the top and the remnants of the words disappearing off the top of the screen right to left. I think either option works so it’s up to your personal preference. I always watch the OP and ED songs.
Upside down!!!
I would like to have the karaoke upside down, having it the normal way would really do take some of the effect away. ^-^ can’t wait for the release ~ thanks for the awesome work as always *bows for the greatness that is Chihiro-subs*
upsidedown =D
Upside down ^^
I think upside down is not a bad idea.
UPSIDE-DOWN plz. =)
But I wonder why the creators/ producers/director(s) of this show have made the OP of this particular episode upside-down…….I guess its a warning to suggest some of the character’s lives are about to be abruptly turned upside down, if not already……….can’t wait for this. XDDD
But did you notice that the OPs of this series have gradually/slightly changed from episode to episode, they either use different colouring or different versions of the same OP. However, in the first season, they just changed the OP and ED accordingly to the plot…….a bit like Kaze no Stigma, where the ED changed between the happy and the more “serious” one depending on the noet that the episode ended. Also, I guess they’re doing a bit more playing around with the actual OP itself to nudge us and make sure we try to “decipher” the title of the second season…..”melodies” is playing a big part in this anime. =)
I think upside down is the best but maybe you can do bote
Upside-doooowwwwnnnnnnn
Doing it both would be asking a bit too much, I think…I say upside-down too – it will be the first time I’m looking at an OP while doing a handstand! 😀
Well since ef is in for 08th episode, and i have seen the OP 7 times (not including rewatches etc). I dont really mind which way it is, but following the creative direction is a good choice imo, so i vote for upside down!
Upside-down!
It’s in english anyway.
upsidedown 🙂
I say 90degrees left, and inverted!
Upside down lyrics are just stupid.
People wont be able to read them. Just don’t karaoke this one please. The lyrics are English anyways.
If anybody wanna say that it’ll be inconsistent without karaoke, I’m gonna have point you at the OPs themselves.
I’m saying it again, It’ll be fine without karaoke for this one.
Upside down or none at all. Might be a good idea to do it upside down, then see what kind of effect that has. If it’s just… ridicoulus, I would take it out. This isn’t really a ‘funny’ anime; if they’ve made the OP upside down some serious shit must be going down in the episode.
Downside Up! 😀
what is the function of karaoke in the first place? you read it to sing-along with the song right? what is the point of having it upside down then?
no karaoke for me
No karaoke at all.
Upside down would be cool =D
No karaoke. The song is English anyways. And i want to see it without subs in high quality (not that youtube “high quality” crap).
@lol: can you stand their dumb “joke” with OP? Thanks God i have ep.8 raw, so I ended up extracting subs and watching raw avi+ass. Assholes.
@subj: if you really need karaoke, turn it upside down (I mean having text at the same X/Y position as usual, but flipped – this way people won’t be confused about their codecs). Though I’d omit karaoke at all: it’s distracting enough even in normal way, and will twice distracting being flipped. Not to mention it’s English anyway..
Leave it upside down.
@lol: I liked Chihiro, so give these guys a break, they have lifes on their own, so a litlle delay is expected, besides is Thanksgiving in the US, the have families.
Keep up the good work
Damn, CoalGuys OP is sooooooo disgusting (not funny at all, I mean, that kind of “humour” do not fit at all to ef) ^^ Waiting for Chihiro subs then (take alllllllll the time you need ^^)
No karaoke would be best here in my opinion
Damn American holidays… jks jks can’t wait for the release! xD
upside down yes!
@moka espresso, i downloaded it to see.
I think these guys should be banned by the community.
HOW CAN YOU FUCKING DO A KARAOKE WITH A CUMMING PENIS ON A SHOW LIKE THIS.
ugh, it makes me mad.

For the ones who want to see the kara.
I know this is a little late to say, but I’ve noticed a mistake in the translation of ep 7 (I think that is the one): the point where yuu talks to mizuki and says “If Kuze were to truly wanted to face the other way…” sth is wrong in the syntax there. And some minutes later yuu says “It’s good that you feel confident about him, but don’t forget to trust him”- I think a “not” is missing (not to trust him)
But generally you guys make very good fan-subbing, thank you for your hard work!
I can haz upside down karaoke?
Here’s an idea … xD
With the karaoke you could put the words upside down as well as correctly put!!! (at the same time) or let the words rotate =P …. But for me I should not make karaoke now (make karaoke in a version 2 perhaps) .
You can take your time subbing this but please not too long, thanks =)
keep it upside down, i don’t think alot of people actually follow the karaoke anyways but its just nice to have it there.
