In case you haven’t noticed, we have hit a roadblock. I guess the easiest way to explain it is that out of the 4 TLers and 3 TLCs in Chihiro, 3 have had computer problems, 1 has had internet problems, and 1 has just disappeared for nearly a week without warning. A group that loses 5 translators/TLCs in a matter of a month simply cannot function, as you can see here.
We are planning to finish up everything we’ve started, and will be continuing all continuing shows onto next season, somehow or another. But all future plans have been cancelled until/unless something changes – either by January 4th, or by January 25th. This could be by people fixing their ongoing computer problems, new translators applying to chihiro and not disappearing an hour later, or if people who have disappeared come back.
Good luck Chihiro, I hope you can sort out all of your problems.
I hope things work out π
>>new translators applying to chihiro and not disappearing an hour later
Lure them with pics of yourself (commonly known as loli pics :])
I hope everything will work out soon :]
oi oi, chiro fansubs CANT simply close down right? Evn if u dont get ppl by the 25th, it doesn’t mean u’ll close down right? Aftr all, u guys cud just take up fewer projects….The one thing about the fan base of Chiro, is that we are patient enough for a release…So dont worry too much about how long sumthing will take…
U guys r one of the best fansubber’s there…Quality, and accuracy are just awesome…Good luck finding the recruits
I don’t think we’ll close down, but we’re pretty close to it unless something changes.
I wish I could help, but sadly, my knowledge of Japanese would be considered poor at best. :'(
I’m rooting for you all. Hope the PC/internet problems get sorted out and the AWOL translator returns π I miss the raingun eps…
Hang in there Chihiro! You have the whole anime-loving Sweden with ya! π
Well, you have our thx at leats for letting us know what’s going on. AS with others, if I had any real knowledge of Japanese I’d gladly help (been watching your subs since you started), but all I’ve picked up has been through watching anime. If there’s anything else we can do to help you keep going, just make another post and hopefully the internet will respond!
Hope things work out for you guys. You’re a great group. I miss Sasameki Koto. π
Ow. That’s bad news. Computer problems can either : be the user’s fault (catching virus) or not (ex. hardware fault). Internet problems… only and if ONLY ISP wouldn’t be such douchebags and offer real tech support and good service without being greedy about it. Lucky enough, mine is greedy but my services are good.
Only if I could better understanding of Japanese, be a better timer, be a good editor or something, I would run and come to your help. Because of my lack of experience and knowledge, I can’t. What a shame.
Show must go on, isn’t it?
Go ahead boys
This really makes me wish I had continued to study Japanese after leaving my first school…I’d love to do TL or TLC, but I’m nowhere near what would be required for this.
good luck on resolving those issues ^^;
its all that loli porn you guys download anti virus+ firewalls works wonders
What will i do with out LOLI’s!?
Wow, hopefully things turn around after the holidays. Try to have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. γγγεΉ΄γοΌ
Yeah, it’s probably just the holidays getting in the way. Hope things work out for you all, though.
Clearly we all should donate money towards computer replacements for the staff.
Seriously, is it the type of problem that money can fix?
I seriously hope you guys sort things out! I’ve been an avid supporter for a while now π It’d be a serious shame if you guys had to close =[ I’m sure it’s the season crapping things up. Good luck and bring on the Raingun/Sasameki Koto :)) <3
What the requirements for joining Chihiro?
For anything but karaoke ^_^;
Know how to use IRC to apply. Know how to do the job asked of you.
im pretty sure after the hectic christmas vacation, everything should be fine. lol
No worries. We understand Christmas so we(at least I) wont be expecting you to do all of this things. well, I just hope that your disappearing translator becomes visible again. I can’t help though since I’m not fluent with any language. xD
good luck and merry xmas π
im still following your sasameki and railgun
Well, when hard times lies ahead, there’s no way to eavde it.
Good luck and if you’ve to sya good bye, we’ll undestand, and if you can keep going… we’ll be waiting.
Greetings.
Bwah, I’d wish I could help with TL’ing, but I don’t think I’ll be of much help with the 500 words I know :-S Gotta get back to my Japanese study soon …
Uguu~ =( Good luck to you, and merry christmas =)
I hope everything works out. It’d be a shame if Chihiro stopped making these nice subs.
Merry Christmas to all of you.
I’m sure that everything will be ok π sooner or later – but I’ll stay here as long as Chihiro exists π
Merry X-mas
good luck. doubt anyone expects people to work during the Christmas days π

maybe you offended them with your christian comments in the xmas post last week?
Sadly, my japanese is too poor for me to act as a translator, at best I could TLC easy shows or do stuff such as QC, editing and encoding.. Well, anyways, Lithuania wishes you happy holidays and we hope that Santa will offer you a solution to your problems ;).
maybe putting up the winter banners will help
Well, while TL is on a stand-still, why not release those with pending SD encodes like Asura Cryin 2 and others?
As with many here, I’d love to assist. However my schedule for next semester will be tough to work around. As for my Japanese, not quite sure if 2 years of university study and JLPT Level 4 is enough to get by… (would have done level 3, but i was scared of the listening section…which is kind of important for these projects)
If you close down, I’ll gather up a mass suicide.
Gao~ No Boob Lover for the time being? No moe moe kyu~n with K-On? You gotta be kidding me!
Btw. what does a TLC do? Maybe I could help out a bit, I got nothing to do atm.
Well if you guys were in the same area as I am, I wouldn’t mine fixing your PCs. Though I doubt that.
mind* lol spelling fail.
I do hope you get things sorted out… I don’t want to go to Mizui speedsubs for Railgun… Please, anything but that.. I guess they are decent, but I like your style and more accurate translations. Please don’t let me down.
