Zettai Karen Children – 23

zkc241

So, I have a lot of things to say.

1. Glasses moe loli doesn’t get enough solo air time

2. I know this is a picture of the OP. I wanted the glasses moe loli

3. 1 more episode until we catch up!

4. Full TLC this episode. Comments appreciated.

5. Proper VFR and better x264 settings. Comments detailing how I can fix more problems appreciated. General “Too sharp” or “Too blurry” comments will be ignored, since I don’t know how to encode, I just know how to follow encoding procedures.

6. Released before XviD of Sekirei because it has and will be my policy to release something new before a re-release of something old.

7. I can’t count, so I accidentally named this episode 24 in a torrent. Ignore that one, it’s dead.

8. v2 for XviD does not mean anything changed. Just audio is compressed.

h.264: Episode 24 tomorrow hopefully. ^_^

XviD: Kristen FAILS

Sekirei – 12 (Final)

seki12

Tsukiumi, be my wife!

It’s been fun working on this. I’m pretty sentimental now that this journey is over. This is the first show that I have translated and have learned a lot from it.

Thanks to all those who’ve stuck around for this series. 🙂 Enjoy!

[Edit: So… I left home, and am currently transitioning to move into my college apartment tomorrow. I came online to check up on Seki 12’s status, and, well, Kristen posted as me and spelled Tsukiumi as Tsukami! orz… But I just corrected it. So we’re good to go.]

Edit from Kristen: XviD is not encoding right now. It will be in about 90 minutes from now.

h.264: Final episode!

XviD: Kristen Fails

Sekirei Season 2!

yay

So, Sekirei announced a season 2 at the end of its final episode this season. So as to prevent questions, I will make the announcement now. Assuming that Chihiro is still alive when season 2 comes along, we WILL be doing it. So, there’s your answer, don’t ask anymore.

I guess I’ll make a status post here, since this post has very little purpose to begin with.

DL Raw – Done

Timeraw- Done

Translation- Done

Timing- Done

Editing- Done

Penguin Musume Heart – 13 Status

Well, it’s been 5 days, so I’m making a status thread to let you know what’s going on.

The Chinese group we were using to translate PMH, KTXP, has seemingly stopped releasing Penguin Musume. Maybe it is a harder episode or they’re stuck on the English at the start or something, but either way, they’re extremely late. As in, they used to release about 6 hours after air time for episodes 1-11, and now it’s been 4.5 days for this episode.

For J->E, it’s extremely hard to do a Penguin Musume episode. They speak slurrily, and fast, so it becomes extremely hard to hear the dialogue. Beyond that, our J->E department is already stuffed with projects, so we wouldn’t be able to add it on any time soon.

So, we have a few options right now. First is, if you’re a J->E TLer of ANY level (So long as you do the episode, we can TLC it), please contact me. By any, I mean JLPT 4, 3, 2, or 1. If a J->E TLer does not come to me, the second option is to continue to wait for Chinese subs, but I don’t know if the Chinese group just dropped it or if they’re just behind by a lot. The third, if a J->E TLer doesn’t apply and Chinese never release, is to drop the series, and we REALLY don’t want to take this option.

Anyways, I’d write out a full status thread, but our status is stuck at translating and will be until one of the forementioned things happen.

Zettai Karen Children – 19

zkc19

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.

Zettai Karen Children – 22

zkc22

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…

Zettai Karen Children – 21

zkc21

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.

Chihiro Victory!

95xyr9

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.
