First.
You win the stealth launch prize.
Caly w/ the stealth posting.
Aww yeah! I have nothing better to do with my life. Except work, gf, animu, and games.
Speaking of games, SMTIV-A 10/10.
Anyone read the manga Dead Tube? The latest chapter made me physically sick; it’s glorious.
Couldn’t figure out the BBC, so here: http://www.mangahere.co/manga/dead_tube/
Wait, what is this shit, a death game? Oh fuck, I am in.

Damn, did you just catch up in 18 minutes?
The cliffhangers are always pretty intense, especially in 27 with so many unanswered questions.
Great manga, though it could never get animated. That’s okay though, some things are better non-mainstream.
I’m pumped to finally have someone to chat about this one with, everyone else is currently addicted to Jojo and it makes me sick. :(
No, I edited my comment as I was reading through. Took me… a couple hours I think? Had to stop to fap to a lot of it.
By amnesia do you mean the fact that Machiya can’t remember Mashiro from before the series started? I agree with that, but I trust the author will have a legitimate explanation beyond “it was so long ago”.
I have high expectations for this arc, though. I’m hoping for a “Mashiro, I’ll do /anything/ if you help” development, and a scene at her house.
At this point, I’m also antipating that George Lucas has made Machiya’s sister an SS officer of the elementary school deathsquad.
herkz back to deleting comments that just slightly imply he’s shitting on other groups because Commie is doing the show. Even deleted comments related to those comments. At least he’s good at being a little bitch.
I finally did it. I finally paid for physical weeb shit for the first time. I couldn’t wait for a No Game No Life season 2, so I bought the fourth light novel. Will I ever be the same again?
If you buy on LN, well, makes sense to have the whole set, right? And if you’ve got a full set already, might as well add another series, yeah?
Shit’s gonna spiral out of control until the only place you have left to sleep is on piles of manga and branded animu panties. Get out while you still can. ;_;
Well, after finishing it in a day, I was saved by the next LN not being officially translated yet. We’ll consider that to be a bullet dodged and see what happens when I dive into the terrifying world of scanlations (or whatever you call a fan LN translation).
So, what does everyone think of the meidocafe youtube channel?
10/10, amirite?
If I was born half a decade ago I suppose I’d find the shtick funny.
Kek?
Only the lowest.

New cartel group confirmed.
Getting blue doesn’t mean they’re cartel lmao. And even if you’re not serious, that’s still a dumb thing to say.
Most of the shows I see there are from ones that no one is bothering to sub. Their release is just better than the official source.
*All
?
We’re all cartel now.
Except Doki.

>Because, we love Dragon Ball. We will pick up the old episodes, too.
Omg, it’s so retarded. Those people “love” DB, cuz Crunchyroll licensed it recently. I can’t stop laughing.
Fansubbing went to the dogs.
Can you review Chihiro’s Occultic;Notes translation? I’d like to know if it’s at least watchable or should I just hope for someone competent to do the BDs.
Spoiler: it’s terrible.
He doesn’t review TLs… He reviews edits. I did, however, look at their release because I was curious to see if it’s worth swapping over from HS. I didn’t think it’s worth the wait.
There were lots of badly phrased lines, places where commas were missed, etc.
Hah, look how pathetic the fansubbers are in this thread: https://twitter.com/SeibaaHomu/status/794066163017711617
Someone needs to dox them and jail their fucking asses so they learn how to not have a fucking huge ego. Like, “Keep wearing your tinfoil hat”? Really?!
A. Not your personal army.
B. Doxxing is fucked — keep internet drama to the internet
C. ???
No one cares. Also, Seibaa is an idiot. He’s an idiot on MAL too.
From what I read above… Same with Hyaku and herkz.
not really
lol what
That’s you, right?
I can’t imagine how anyone else could possibly care about this.

I’ll get the Aniplex version. Don’t need guesslated garbage by a group whose site gets maybe 100 hits a day.
D_S, please. They were fine for the most part.
>Aniplex.
But they’re bad…
I’ll take Aniplex Engrish over completely made up scripts any day of the week.
How exactly is their script made up, though?

That’s actually pretty funny. I never noticed that.
These lines are perfectly fine tho. Vertical worded it differently but both translations mean the same thing.
BRB opening up my power level ports. kamehamaha amirite my fellow anime fan?
Have some Vertical:
1) Making friends would lower my intensity as a human.
(…)
I think that’s the same as becoming weaker as a person.
2) Maybe I need the firewall of a pair of bike shorts after all.
TL;DR = there’s nothing wrong with Commie TL. Actually, they’re pretty creative.
Don’t know Japanese, so obviously I know nothing of the Original TL or what it’d mean before, but… Maybe it’s my just my creativity that would stop me, but I don’t think I’d ever make this kind of edit in a release.
I wouldn’t doubt the TL if it was right. But personally, I don’t think I like this kind of edit. Not like it’d ruin my watching experience, though.
Well, you don’t even need to know Japanese to understand what ファイアウォール means.
Care to use your Japanese language expertise to explain what the lines actually mean, then?
Nah, I think I’ll just dismiss the release based on group name alone and call it a day.
That’s cheap.
>Well, you don’t even need to know Japanese to understand what ファイアウォール means.
ファイアウォール = Firewall.
Yeah, she said that in engrish.
>I wouldn’t doubt the TL if it was right. But personally, I don’t think I like this kind of edit.
Again, what kind of edit? They just made these lines more comprehensible.
Speaking in general here. Obviously not every TL would make the same TL. I just don’t think I’d come up with a line like this (Engrish aside). Just personal preference here. There’s really no big deal to it. The line is still easy to understand. Not going to go out of my way to try and figure out an alternative line for the sentence.

Was this really in the official simulcast or is HorribleSubs trolling?
I think we’re in the Crunchyroll goes to the dark side timeline.

Is there any good group who is going to translate it?
Thoughts on new Code Geass season?
its shit
What? Why? Christ.
Hey Dark_Sage, you rake in anything good over Black Friday weekend?
No, I don’t buy things. I’m sort of an anime monk.
>no Crymore Christmas yesterday
Why live? ;-;
Yeah, I failed. ;_;
Just don’t fail us on the Winter 2017 preview.
I’ve mostly spent my free time marathoning Bleach, so…
So who ultimately was the best choice for Yahari? It was going to be FFF, but they never got past episode 4 season 2.
S1 BD: Coalgirls (FFF)
S2 BD: SallySubs? (Edited CR, which makes me suspicious, but ain’t like you got many options out there)
Are commie that bad?
Yes.
RIP Coalgirls…
hey d_s, there’s still time to bash at all the shitty shows airing next season
D_S is dead.

Nice meme
Watching funimation’s akiba’s trip subtitles is suffering. Please review them.
How’re you enjoying Berseria, sage?
Berseria is great at everything except combat, map design, and general gameplay.
So… It’s like the second-best Tales.
I haven’t played Berseria, but Zestiria gameplay/battle system is atrocious (made me stop at tutorial lmao).
Well, it’s similar to other Tales series, but 2D battle like Tales on PS1 was more appealing.
I think what you just said is that the story is great. I’m okay with that in an rpg.
If you ignore the world that Zestiria forcefully made shit… yeah, best story in a Tales game.
Please review CR’s Gabriel DropOut. The memes… It hurts…
Hmm… effort. But on the other hand, maybe I should watch something this season.
Enjoy!

Surely this will save fansubbing!

>As mentioned earlier, the user backlash made Crunchyroll roll back on the instant deployment of the new low bitrate video. However, this is only for new episodes — all older episodes that have been converted over to the new low bitrate format are only available to paid users in said low bitrate format, and any new episodes are converted over just a day after initial release.

What’s your opinion?
TFW pandering this hard, but still have no hits. I’ll give this faggot 10 minutes, but that’s about it. What video should I be looking at here?

Glad to see all the bitching and whining at Crunchyroll from the scene’s remnants was to great effect. Well done, fansubbers, you’ve succeeded once again.
CR will run into a bunch of other problems, sooner rather than later. Amazon’s started to expand, and their streaming service is like 20 times better than CR petty BR and half-assed scripts.

So are we all using Tokyo Toshokan again?
Apparently the new hot thing is gnunet.
i need a quality article about the death of nyaa plz (it’s just a reminder since you said you are not gonna write anything until you find a job)
Mm, all right. Think I can afford to slack off for a night.
D_S senpai you always know how to make me happy <3
If there ever were a time to come out of hibernation to do something, this would be it.
Well now I’m worried, because I was just gonna throw out a 1-hour shitpost. Maybe I’ll… let this bake a little longer.

No.
:(
I mean, what’s there to say? There used to be like fansub factions which were loose associations of fansubbers who ran in the same social circles. One of those circles was commonly referred to as the cartel, cuz they were the largest and most influential. Thanks to their lack of competency, as they gained more marketshare in the fansubbing scene, people stopped giving a shit about fansubs. And now the site that was their crowning achievement, nyaa (though ascribing nyaa’s one-time success as their own is a weird combination of both hilarious and pathetic), went down. So they lost the entirety of what little relevance they once had.
Don’t know why 4chon thinks this “story” is worth a fucking book, though they have been a bit behind the bellcurve over the past decade.
i was actually joking, but anyway 4chan went full conspiracy theory about the meme cartel, they really took it to another level of sadness.
Why, in May 2017, would there even be a thread about fansubs? Got an archive link? I’m morbidly curious.
4chan is trying to create their own “nyaa”, so they are shitposting about it on /a/.
If you are not blocked, you can see screenshots of it on herkz’s twitter account.
EDIT: http://boards.4chan.org/g/thread/60362384 think i got one of the threads.
Oh Jesus, all that text is from today? Welp, guess I’ve got some reading to do. Thanks fam.
Huh? Both nyaa.si and nyaa.pantsu.cat aren’t “official” nyaa.se new sites.
People behind those 2 sites are just “creating their own nyaa”.
nyaa.si closer to being the spiritual successor in the sense it has more of the retards involved with the original nyaa on staff than pantsu does.
Can we expect any season previews in the year 2017?
Oh god, how much time do I have?
July 1st. It starts big with the only new show of the coming season that I know anything about: Kakegurui
Sweet, that gives me like… Two+ weeks to get started. \o/
RIP.
You can still make it in time if you do it like…tonight lol
Scratch that. Season has officially started.
Welp, there’s always next decade.
What happened to the Pandora bot on IRC that had all the Whine-Sub releases? I need it
Not my bot, no idea. What were you looking for?
I was hoping to grab the TV versions of your C-Control subs, can you help me out?
Just the subs, or the MKVs?
Was hoping for the MKVs. Are the subs all you’ve got?
So Fyurie retired, FFF’s fully stalled, DDY only finished Titan, and Asenshi’s got nothing planned for summer. herkz is basically all that’s left of fansubbing.
Doki is still active.
Where were you when fansubs were kill? Not like it’s a huge loss, it’s just a shame that shows like Kakegurui will have unreliable weekly subs.
https://fansubdb.com/wiki/Summer_2017
Literally nothing from fansubs, lel.
So UTW came back from the dead. Netflix bringing back the fansubs? Review when
Shit…
D_S can you recommend anything like canaan or black lagoon, girls with guns but somewhat thought-provoking?
Jormungand. It has a lot of dudes, but I guarantee it has everything you’re looking for. Much slower build-up than those two, but well worth it.
thanks man
Heads-up D_S, if you’re thinking of coming again this year, Otakuthon (Montreal anime con) pre-reg ends in a day and a bit. Cheers!
Fuck
Hey, don’t need an article, just tell me, are there options for Koyomimonogatari, and who should I choose?
Thank you based dark sage.
No fucking idea. Did people really keep watching after Nise?
I did and forced all my friends too ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
It’s the only harem anime that does a good job of giving every animu grill equal screen time (that I know of).
https://myanimelist.net/character/128918/Sae_Chabashira/pictures
Does anybody know of any sub games that are planning on doing the No Game No Life movie? I hesitate to download these one-man efforts.
So with a new season coming up can we expect DS to provide us with a list of Shit, hot-Shit, not-that-Shit titles?
Also this OT is almost 1 1/2 yeas old.
Oh shit
