For the lady-loving audience here, do note the HorribleSubs version is censored. So unless you’re watching this show for the ladies’ smiles, you may want to factor that into your decision.
Spring 2013
Fansub Review: [naisho] Pretty Rhythm Rainbow Live (Episode 01v2)
For a series invented to sell branded tampons, it’s not that bad.
Fanrip Review: [HorribleSubs] Aku no Hana (Episode 01)
While this isn’t a bad release, it is inferior to gg’s in nearly every way that matters. So, no, I don’t recommend waiting for it.
Translation Party: [Commie vs. Hadena vs. HorribleSubs vs. UTW-Vivid] Suisei no Gargantia (Episode 01)
Okay, this is the last time I’m gonna say it this season: there are checkboxes. Use them if you feel you need to select more than one option. For example, in a case where two groups have the exact same translation, you can select both of them, so there’s no need to flip a coin.
Translation Party: [HorribleSubs vs. Commie vs. FFF] Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W (Episode 01)
I despise this series. Don’t be surprised if it takes me a while to get around to the actual reviews. Don’t worry though, I think the best group is gonna be clear for this one.
Short Fansub Review: [Chihiro] Ketsuekigata-kun! (Episode 01)
I don’t know how someone could fuck up a two-minute animu short, but Chihiro found a way.
Fansub Review: [Critter-Subs] Jewelpet Happiness (Episode 01)
You didn’t think this review was at the top of my priorities list? How wrong you were.
Translation Party: [Anime-Koi vs. Hadena vs. Doki vs. FFF] Date A Live (Episode 01)
I’m sorry, I lied to you with my last article. Turns out, the best girl is Anemia-chan, not Kotori. Update your notes accordingly.
Translation Party: [Commie vs. EveTaku vs. HorribleSubs] Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai S2 (Episode 01)
Looks like everyone brought their C-game to this party.
Fansub Review: [Vivid] Namiuchigiwa no Muromi-san (Episode 01)
Well at least the show is only twelve minutes long. :/
