Yes, I know we’re behind on a few things. I blame it on the new season coming in and hitting us with 5 shows which air within 4 days of each other. We just have to get used to the new schedule, since we’re used to the hit coming Wednesday-Thursday (3 shows in 2 days).
I’d like to release 5-2 and Penguin tomorrow if possible, with KA 11 and ZKC 27 on Tuesday, but a lot of it depends on when our TLs/TLCs are available. No guarantees on anything at this point.
Also, Miu is MOE!!!
h.264: Miu-chan~
XviD: Almost done~
Pantsu.
That is all.
h.264: Pantsu.
XviD: Lazy me~
After a bit of though, ef is a standard definition show. Normally, we’ll release upscales of shows because they’ll look good. But you all saw what the transport stream looks like, and the demand for SD only is a bit higher than for HD. As such, we’re going to only be releasing 704X400 for both h.264 and XviD.
As our encoder said, the 720p issues were all my fault, because I was the one who asked that we tried doing it. We may try doing it at a higher definition if we decide to do DVDs later on, but for now, we’ll be doing SD only. Sorry for the inconvenience this may cause.

After a couple of days of struggles, mistakes, non-mistakes, raw hunting, and encoding, we’re finished with episode one. This is done in full. OP is subbed, all signs are typeset, full edit pass, etc. And we’re intending to do that for all of EF.
For pre-releasing, it’s simply not happening anymore. If we do pre-release at all, it’ll be to maybe a blogger or a few friends we trust. If you have to ask if you are one of these people, the answer is no. Just stay patient, we’ll keep you informed as to how we are doing. Heck, this is still a 54 hour turnaround even with a couple of delays.
Also, big clap to our encoder (An anonymous one). Here’s a sample of how bad the transport stream was. You would think for a series are artsy as this one it would at least have good picture quality. But, he did a great job in dealing with it.

So, there were some mistakes made today. Pre-releasing was not a good idea, and I do not see us doing it again for EF. We’re starting from scratch with a new status post and forgetting about that last pre-release post. <.<
EF 01 Status:
Get Raw (TL – .ts)
Translate (TL – TLC)
Time
Edit
OP (Transliteration – Ktime – KFX)
Signs (TL – TS)
QC
Encode (Lossless – h264 – XviD)
Please welcome in new show number two for the fall, Kyou no Go no Ni. Maybe it’s just our nature to be attracted to lolis or something?
Funny thing about this project is that we decided like a month ago to do it. Then we dropped it to pick up Akane Iro. Then we switched Akane Iro’s TLer and ZKC’s TLer. Then we dropped Akane and switched the Akane TLer back to ZKC. And now the TLer originally on this project is doing it again. Ah well. XD
Release schedule will be a bit different than normal. On Sunday nights or Monday morning’s, we’re intending to release a pre-release, because raws for this show seem to be slow. This is a 704X400 pre-release. That means it is translated, timed, and edited, softsubbed onto the first decent raw available in h.264 format. Then we will spend 1-2 days doing an edit pass 2 on it, and maybe even a QC. At this point, it will be encoded onto the best raw available at 1280X720 or higher resolution into a 1280X720 h.264 or a 704X400 XviD. We’ll also fix issues you guys pick out such as mistimed lines and such. Basically, this is a DCIISS release type schedule. We will add a karaoke once the CD is released in Japan, or when we get CC’s of the OP.
To answer the questions about Kannagi, it was a possible series, but the archaic Japanese was a bit much. We may pick it up later if sub groups start stalling, but no guarantees.
h.264: This OP is AMAZING!
h.264 720p: Fixed and pretty
XviD: See you on Sunday
Yay! I have a whole new back of Chihio pics to use! ^_^

Last release of the day today. We have quite a few XviDs in our “To Do” column now, but they’ve kind of all been delayed because new shows take priority over old shows in a different format. Don’t worry, our big crunch is during the weekend, so they will get out.
Another day, another episode. 3 new episodes released today, and I’m intending to do 3 tomorrow as well. It may become 2 tomorrow, 1 on Monday, and then EF on Tuesday depending on circumstances, but I’d like to really do 3 more episodes tomorrow.
Tomorrow, we will probably announce our next two shows of the upcoming season. Keep in mind that we reserve the right to pick up shows mid-season if other groups are slowing down and we have staff willing to work on it.
By the way, this is the only girl in the series that’s moe so far. The others haven’t been so hot. XD
h.264: 4 episodes left
XviD: Yay!
