Perevodildo's ramblings

Raw acquisition, editing Paul Geromini Encoding Anonymous Translation, typesetting Perevodildo Translation check sotoo On this perfectly ordinary day of a perfectly ordinary month, at the perfectly random UTC time, we present to you NHK’s “Shonen Drama Series: They Were Eleven.” I don’t know why we did this. I don’t know what to say about it either, the short version is “this movie is mid and the RAW is worse. Watch the anime instead.” The long version is that Paul saw a DVD for this on some auction, saw that it doesn’t have any rips yet, and bought it, god knows why. It lingered on his hard drive for some months, until I became so desperate for something to do I agreed to translate it. Sotoo then saw we’re working on it and expressed interest, since the NHK Shounen Drama shows are somehow 𝒂𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒕𝒊𝒄 to him (although I am personally too philistine to call a pile of garbage “aesthetic”). So there you have it. The first encoder we sent it to had this to say about the video: This ...

This is a special one. The movie itself is quite good and essentially “Papa Mama Bye Bye” done right. It’s one of the better documentaries we’ve done. But it’s also why the show itself is quite technical in nature and requires a degree of knowledge about Japan’s geography to keep you engaged while the countless events, occurring in various parts of the country, are hurled at you just to leave no impact because they’re but an empty sound to someone unfamiliar with the area. For that reason, the notorious “TL notes” here go beyond what you’d usually expect to help you understand the geography of events. Still, if you think yourself above that and just want to experience it “as-is,”  there’s an alternative, “Noteless” subtitles track. Now comes the sad part. The current rip is eye cancer-inducing, the video is a 374p reencode of a youtube upload of someone’s horrendous rip of their VHS recording of the movie, made while it aired on TV Tokyo (yep, not even a rip of the retail tape, whi...

Episode 6 notes: Vessel for manifestation of Buddha's true self  - actually, "発迹顕本" is another heavily loaded concept from Buddhism. Fully expanded, it amounts to something like "Casting off the transient body and revealing the true self of the original Buddha." The meaning of this passage is that Buddha lives in anyone, and through piety anyone is able to reveal traces of Buddha in himself - anytime, anywhere, even with a mortal body. More  here .            Another context-heavy scene. At least the show made an effort to make it clear what's going on, and I resounded that effort without resorting to \an8 TL notes. The guy here refers to the word 正しい / tadashi = correct, hence he wants to name the magazine "正教 / seikyo" = orthodox (literally "correct faith"). Toda, however, mistakes it for another "seikyo," namely "聖教 / seikyo" = Sacred Teachings (literally "saint faith"). And that's how they end up nami...

Yep. Rescuing another mid.  I promise these two will scissor after episode 146. Episodes: I hate St. Clare’s! {クレア学院って大嫌い} Video is taken from that recording of the 2013 rerun of this show. That rerun is the only source of Japanese audio we have for this show—it was never reissued on DVD, let alone better home media—and that audio, all things considered, is pretty shitty: muffled and all, but it is what it is. The video is not great either. A viable alternative would’ve been taking the video from the German DVD of the show (ripped on U2), or one of the other European releases, but that would require someone to encode, then color correct, THEN sync the audio for it, provided, the video itself is not re-edited in the first place, and that is simply out of the realm of possibility for a mid forgotten show like this one. Yes, for all its perceived yuri potential, this show isn’t worth Futari no Lotte’s toe. Usually, “Ochame na Futago” would mean “playful / mischievous tw...

Video provider Dong Buttle Translator, typesetter Perevodildo Quality checker Zumussawa, Paul Geromini Lyrics booklet provider Bternal_Elizzard Advisory board members Wenuno, Narkodius, Onymoanus [nothing] John G. Noobow This is Blasphemboys’ new tag for R-rated titles. Due to [REDACTED] repeatedly blueballing me, I’ve translated another thing to make her hopefully warm up to me. WebDL by a certain Dong Buttle, all-new softsub translation by perevodildo, who is the only one here not afraid to flash his real name, since it’s already inherently obscene, QCed by [REDACTED]. It’s a weird show even as George Akiyama’s works go: a guy is lusting for his younger sister, who is lusting for some red-faced guy who has a magical peeny or something and fucks really well. And that’s the gist of it—there is no complex plot or lesson learned—it’s a small appetizer for its parent manga, and what little enjoyment there is to be had, is in the development of the characters’ conflicted emotions. It’s a p...

Raw WOWmd’s DDD rip of Batty’s LD Original translation To-Y RC’s 2007 hardsubbed LD release, in turn based on the “timed script by Kodocha Anime, 1997” (Translation by Keisuke Okamoto) OCR, translation check, typesetting Perevodildo Quality check Muzussawa, Marty Mcflies,  Imatu  (LonelyChaser fansubs) You know the drill. WOWmd captured Batty’s LD with his domesday duplicator and shared the video with me, knowing that it’ll end up on my desk anyway, much like most of his recent captures. This show was previously only available through the 2007 hardsubs. The translation in that was alright, so I OCRed them, translation-checked a few boobs, retimed and typeset. Marty Mcflies and  Imatu  from LonelyChaser Fansubs also additionally quality-checked since Marty owns an LP with this show’s soundtrack, and Muzussawa from DildoChaser Fansubs QCed because I tricked her into it.
