So, I’m going to skip any usual ranting to talk directly on our releases on Zettai Karen Children in general. ZKC is a fun series, and we have some people willing to translate it. However, the main translator for the series entered a new schedule of post-summer where he basically only has 4 hours of free time per week. As such, we needed to change translators. To compound to that, the main person TLCing it has told us that he doesn’t want to TLC this series again due to Aya Hirano making TLCing impossible. As such, our TL has been relying on what I call “light” TLC, where the editor has some knowledge of Japanese, but not a whole lot, so he does not catch all errors.
Simply put, we ran out of options on ZKC. We cannot have a strict J->E TL of it yet, because our only J->E TLer is working on other series and is at his max for the rest of the summer. We cannot get a J->E TLCer either, since we have 1 busy with school work, one busy with RL, and one who refuses to do it. So, this is C->E with two light J->E passes on it. Hence the lower TL quality as of late.
For the saying “They released it poorly for lols”, no. We haven’t released something for a laugh in months, and even then, that was Jaka releasing for laughs, me to release.
We will solve our TL issues after this season finishes, though. We’re doing a little project shuffle for the fall so that we’re doing less series than we initially planned so as to allow for better concentration on them and for more of a possibility to sub shows that need them later on in the season, and that should solve some problems.
Also, Chihiro doesn’t troll. We get trolled. On an unrelated note, this episode threw in a different challenge to me, so I was unable to do VFR on it. I’m going to try on episode 23 and see how it works out.
h.264: Troll Free Version
XviD: Oops, forgot to write this in.
Dreaming loli. Isn’t that all what this is about? What could she be dreaming about? About how one day she’ll grow big breasts and become God without knowing that she is?
XviD will not be out for a while because I am presently dealing with episode 19’s lossless which will then turn into a timeraw when I wake up, and then eventually h.264. THEN I’ll do the XviD. 19 is our goal episode to release tomorrow, with 23 on Wednesday (Assuming it doesn’t go onto the backburned for Sekirei or WD).
Also, for those complaining about jerky frame rates, you have been heard. I’m looking into some way to fix it. Convertfps=29.970 would also create jerky frame rates since this is VFR, not 29.970. And speaking of which, what genius capper though it’d be a good idea to release the raw in VFR x264 .avi? I think I found a solution to the VFR stuff, but it’d either require us to release XviD in an MKV container (Not compatible with DVD players), or we’d add about 8 hours of encoding time onto XviD weekly.
Lastly, we are working to make a better style, but bear with us while we work on it.
Now, off for my own loli sleep. ^_^
h.264: Dreaming Loli…
XviD: Waking loli…
So, yeah, I failed. I failed hard. Forgot to take out a resize filter, so I got a lossless at 704X396 resolution instead of the 720p I needed to encode both h.264 and XviD from it. But, I was able to encode XviD, so that’s what we’ll release now.
HOWEVER, this means that we did make 2 ZKC releases this week, enough to compensate for last week and this week. And to be honest, ZKC 23 will by most odds be out tomorrow, with 24 on Tuesday.
Just an update on Penguin Musume. Still no Chinese subs to base off of, so we’re trying to J->E it for now, but J->E on Penguin is REALLY slow. Penguin takes about 4 times longer to do than a normal show because they talk really really fast.
Also, when tosho comes back up, could somebody put our torrent up there with a like to our IRC network and our website?
XviD: Tosho is down
h.264: Tosho is still down
*UPDATE*: We’re not skipping 22. That’s for today.
Thanks to you and the help of many others, Chihiro pushed her way through the 1st round! I’m sure she’s writing this in her diary right now.
So, this means it’s time to party! Yay Chihiro! I’m providing party hats for everyone! We broke her out of group G-6 and into G-2-2!
As I suspected, Kuu got a TON of fake votes, like 100 total. What’s funny is that Chihiro almost won with those fake votes included.
A graph of Chihiro’s progress through the day can be found here
Her next match is on the 6th of October JST, and her opponents will be Torikai Hazuki of Sketchbook ~Full Colors~, and the third opponent will be determined tomorrow (Either Yatsushiro Nanaka of Myself;Yourself, Kagura Hinata of H2O -FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND-, or Amamiya Manami of Gakuen Utopia Manabi Straight)
Remember: Chihiro has a 13 hour memory, so it is important for us to remember to vote for her, since she’ll forget.
Penguin later today, hopefully. Chinese subbers are really really late.
She’s beckoning! Chihiro has provided you with lots of subs to enjoy, so now we’re asking for something in return. Go to 2chan and vote for Chihiro!
Here are the links:
Voting code generator: http://as2008.xii.jp/ (Should work soon. Load it, refresh it two hours later, copy the code)
Voting Thread: Vote or Die!
*UPDATE*: Chihiro is down by 18 votes presently, but it is quite possible that 20 votes on her main competitor are fake. She has also been steadily making a comeback from 43 down to only 18 down. Support Chihiro and vote!
*UPDATE TWO*: Chihiro is down by 4 votes with about 11 hours to go. Keep on supporting her!
*UPDATE THREE*: Chihiro is up by 5 and needs your help! Got to http://forums.animesuki.com/showpost.php?p=1735112&postcount=1460 for voting instruction
*UPDATE FOUR*: Chihiro is the unofficial winner. Waiting on confirmation, and then we’ll party.
Nyan nyan nyan nyan, ni hao nyan~ Gorgeous, delicious, and deculture!
Boy this screenshot reminds my of some other show that we did a while ago. Now, what was that called again?
To Love Ru will probably be delayed next week since our translator is going to be traveling to college and then has orientation.
By the way, nice UFO.
h.264: There’s Ranka, now where’s Sheryl?
XviD: There she is!
Chihiro never was too good in math. After all, the episode after Sekirei 01 is episode 03, the episode after ZKC 12 is 14, and the first episode of School Rumble is 25, not 01. So, we obviously thought that 18+1=20.
Heh. Let me explain what this is. We have presently 4 people working on the ZKC translation project. The guy who was working on episode 20 was the fastest. So, we timed it, TLCed it, and it ended up being ready for release before 19. I am NOT a believer of holding back a new release for any reason, so chronological order is not a solid reason. Since this is slice of life, it shouldn’t matter, I don’t think.
By that way, loli rape.
h.264: Now when will they show that kaoru h-scene…
XviD: Lalala
We’re going to finish this series. Be it that we release first or last every week, we’re planning on finishing it for anyone who wants to stay with the same group. This is a long status post, so I don’t want to take too much time speaking about the episode.
Here’s a little bit of the rest of the week’s plans. To Love Ru should be out by 10 PM EST tomorrow barring catastrophe/TL oversleeping/Encode failing/Lithuania losing the basketball game/Penguins taking over the world. Penguin will be out on Saturday. We will be releasing at least 3 Zettai Karen Children episodes before next week (My week starts midnight Monday). One to stagnate last week, one to stagnate this week, and one to advance towards catching up. We can be releasing up to 5 before the week is out, depending on how our TLCs fair. Ikkitousen OVA will be out as soon as we can get Chinese subs for it. I don’t know how fast they sub OVAs, so I can’t say.
Also, look at her eyes! They are hypnotic, aren’t they? That’s intentional. She’s saying “Vote Chihiro in Saimoe”
h.264: Here
XviD: Here
