The show’s all right if you like adventures. Otherwise, skip it. As of now it’s probably gonna clock out at 7/10 on my scale (and my scale is perfect).

DameDesuYo :: I found an old blueprint in the attic.
Working off of that, I built this skyfish piece by piece over the past three years.
>So you unlocked the security code of the experimental lab?
Yup.
>When?
>>Hey, would you look at that.
FFF :: I found some old blueprints in the attic.
So I put them together, and I’ve been working on it for the last three years.
>You cracked the lab’s security code?
>I had no idea!
>>How did you manage to miss that?!
HorribleSubs :: I found an old blueprint in the attic…
I modified the design and built it, little by little, over three years.
>Then…
>So you figured out the security code to the prototyping workshop?
>When did that happen?
>>Uh, you should have noticed.
WhyNot :: I found an old blueprint in the attic…
I modified the design and built it up, little by little, over the last three years.

Essential 2.
What a sad world they live in where one has to justify adding missiles to any form of transport. (For you non-Americans out there, I’m actually being serious.)

DameDesuYo :: Why arm it with missiles?
>Well, there are sky pirates flying around.
>Something dangerous could happen in flight, so it’s for self-defense.
>>So I should charge you with imperfect self-defense, then?
FFF :: So why do you have stuff like missiles?
>Well, I might get attacked by air pirates.
>It’s dangerous out there, so I added them to protect myself.
>>You could be facing excessive self-defense charges here.
HorribleSubs :: Why is it equipped with missiles and stuff?
>Because there are sky pirates.
>Other stuff could also happen along the way, so I took preventative measures.
>>I should charge you with excessive force in self-defense.
WhyNot :: Why does it have missiles and stuff?
>Because there are sky pirates.
>Or in case something else happens along the way… These are just preventative measures.
>>I should charge you with excessive force used in self-defense.

DameDesuYo :: Cops aren’t always the good guys, you know.
FFF :: The police aren’t always as righteous as you’d think.
HorribleSubs :: There’s no guarantee that cops won’t do bad things.

DameDesuYo :: I’ll sue them for an ungodly amount of money over this!
FFF :: There’ll be no end to the indemnities they’ll have to pay!

DameDesuYo :: Also, Galileo hid clues of a discovery greater than his theory of heliocentricism in his sketches.
That discovery is Galileo’s heritage: Galileo’s Tesoro.
FFF :: Word has it that in those six sketches,
Galileo left hints to a grand discovery on a scale rivaling that of the heliocentric model.
And that discovery is what people call “Galileo’s relic,” or “Galileo’s treasure.”
HorribleSubs :: Anyway, it seems Galileo embedded clues in the six sketches
concerning a discovery that would even rival his defense of geocentricism.
And that discovery is Galileo’s inheritance…
The Galileo Tesoro.
WhyNot :: Anyway, it seems Galileo embedded clues in the six sketches

DameDesuYo :: What is that goldfish flier?
>I found an old blueprint in the attic.
>>That’s something Hozuki made on her own! It’s got nothin’ to do with Galileo!
FFF :: What was that goldfish mecha?
>I found some old blueprints in the attic.
>>That’s just something Hozuki built on her own!
>>It has nothing to do with Galileo!
HorribleSubs :: What’s with that goldfish mecha?
>I found an old blueprint in the attic…
>>That’s just a mecha Hozuki put together on her own.
>>It has nothing to do with Galileo!
WhyNot :: And what’s the story behind that goldfish mecha?

DameDesuYo :: I can’t believe your stomach is growling at a time like this.
>It growls when it wants to
>even if I were being rejected or someone were dying.
FFF :: I can’t believe you!
How can you be hungry at a time like this?!
>People can’t control when they get hungry.
>Doesn’t matter whether you just got dumped, or someone just died.
HorribleSubs :: Unbelievable.
How can you be hungry at a time like this?
>Hunger is as hunger does, no matter what’s happening.
>You can be hungry even after being dumped or someone’s death.
WhyNot :: I can’t believe you.
How can you be hungry at a time like this?
>Crisis or not, a girl has to eat.

DameDesuYo :: There will be chaos if a gun is fired in the police station.
Also, they’re still children!
>No one can choose the time or place of their own death.
>It is fair for all the living, Cassini.
FFF :: Firing a gun inside the station could cause problems.
Not to mention they’re still children!
>Death cares not for time or place.
>It’s equally ruthless to everyone, Cassini.
HorribleSubs :: We can’t have you using firearms in the station.
Besides, those girls are still children…
>Death knows neither time nor place.
>It is fair and merciless to all, Cassini.
WhyNot :: We can’t have you using firearms in the station.
Besides, they’re still children…

DameDesuYo :: If the enemies’re investigating a Galileo mystery,
Then you three go solve dat mystery!
I want y’all to overcome Galileo’s curse.
FFF :: Our opponents are trying to solve Galileo’s mystery.
So you three go and solve it before they do!
Then come back and use Galileo’s magic to confront them!
HorribleSubs :: If the enemy’s after Galileo’s secrets,
you three should discover them.
Break Galileo’s hold on us.

DameDesuYo :: Your papa’s got the brawn
but your mother’s got the brains.
But that’s fine.
I won’t stop here!
FFF :: I’m actually more of a sports person.
Your mother is way better than me at thinking.
But you know…
My will is unyielding!
HorribleSubs :: I’ve always been the jock of the family.
Your mom may trump me for brains…
But you know what?
When it comes to backbone, I beat her any day!
WhyNot :: I’ve always been the muscle of the family.

Decision Point:
- Holy fucking shit, Dark_Sage. Give me more comparisons. I fucking live for this! (Put the knife down and click the spoiler. We got eight more comparisons for ya.)
- Oh my god, put a bullet in my head. When is this shit gonna be over with already? (You’ve seen enough for one lifetime. Head down to the results.)
THIS IS A MARKER FOR WHERE THE IMAGES END
Which group had which line (unformatted, lazy-mode Sage):
>not including Commie
D_S confirmed for boycotting Commie for boycotting Crymore.
Disqualifieds aren’t included in TL Parties.
http://www.crymore.net/2013/10/12/fakesub-review-commie-galilei-donnasamurai-flamencoyowamushi-pedal-episode-01/
Excuse me, it’s not a ‘fakesub’, it’s called minimalistic editing.
Get with the times, jii-san.
I’m sure you’ve included “minimalistic” Crunchy edits in TL parties before.
If its so minimal you could just go with commie after finishing with mostly horriblesubs lines being picked?
“>even if I were being rejected or someone were dying.”
seriously?
“Then come back and use Galileo’s magic to confront them!” was my personal favorite.
I liked that line too, but I felt the overall wording of the sequence was inferior.
“Crisis or not, a girl has to eat.” was my favorite line.

FFF seems like a good choice too. I’ll probably pick up GD again after your actual reviews. I watched a couple eps by Commie which, along with the YA feel, had left a bad taste in my mouth.

The one about Death’s mercy bugged me to no end, should be a major point in the reviews, IMO:
“>It is fair and merciful to none, Cassini.”
I actually had to go download another translation to see what they meant here, since it could be read as “Fair to none and merciful to none” or “Fair” and “Merciful to none”, which is what they had meant.
A comma wouldn’t have gone amiss there.
