Mister Giants Eikou no Sebangou San / Glorious Number 3 / ミスター・ジャイアンツ 栄光の背番号3 Special (1981) [VHS HEVC FLAC] + reference list

Image
Contribution Name RAW MartyMcflies’s rip of his own VHS tape. (He also provided the scans for the OP and ED lyrics, which are LP-exclusive.) Translation Perevodildo Translation check NorainuG Editing Collectr Quality check Paul Geromini We didn’t plan it this way, but now this release is dedicated to the memory of Shigeo Nagashima, who passed away exactly one month ago, on June 3rd, 2025. Because this show has been so obscure for ages, nobody bothered to add it to MAL and AniDB, so you won’t find it there just yet. Essentially, it’s just a semi-animated semi-documentary biopic about  Shigeo Nagashima , an influential and beloved Yomiuri Giants player, who just so happened to pass away the day Marty sent me the raw for this show due to losing interest in subbing it himself. Admitted, I did a quick-and-dirty on those subs, both because the audio on that VHS wasn’t the best, and because it’s essentially a baseball anime, and nobody cares about baseball, and only asked Collectr from Or...

[Blasphemboys] Papa Mama Bye Bye / パパ ママ バイバイ Movie (1984) [DVDRip AVC AC3]

Image
RAW: UCCUSS DVD rip (encoded from WoH’s DVD) (or is it a remux?) Translation: Perevodildo Quality check: True Noobow Gamer An RF-4B Phantom II stationed in Japan  crashed  into a residential area in Yokohama in 1977, resulting in 3 fatalities and 6 injuries. That seemingly unremarkable incident that would hardly otherwise be seen as anything more than a 6-minute long youtube disaster documentary material, spawned a picture book in 1979, this movie in 1984, and finally, a statue erected on the site in 1985. Without trying to sound disrespectful to the victims, I’ve seen rowdy drinking incidents that were both more dramatic and deadly than this, yet never went out of their way to make you waste an hour of your time watching the victims live their painfully mundane lives, completely devoid of any features or events that’d make spending your time with them any justifiable, only to show you the disaster in question in the last 10 minutes. This show is like Natsu...

Highschool Aurabuster: Hikari no Mezame / High School Aura Buster: The Awakening of Light / ハイスクール・オーラバスター 光の誕生 OVA (1999) [LD HEVC AAC]

RAW: Domesday-captured LD rip by Piyo-Piyo Productions - includes analog and digital audio tracks; I also kept both for this release, though my personal preference lies with digital. Translation: Perevodildo Editing: Darkonius Superficial QC: Shinjinotikari17 This show was deservedly forgotten for all these years: it’s another one from the obnoxious 90-s “the war between two powerful ESP factions that can destroy the earth, sealed a Millenia ago, is renewed as the “chosen ones” from both factions are reincarnated in the bodies of  ordinary Japanese high school students , with Yun Kouga on the staff, and a bit of yaoi on the side” genre, overused ad nauseum in the Japanese media of the time. In the first 20 minutes it presents you with 40 different characters, filled with vanity, pathos, and superpowers, who all look, sound and feel more or less the same and are utterly unmemorable in their personalities, because they all only appear for a minute to say their three most pr...

[LonelyDildo] Seito Shokun! Kokoro ni Midori no Neckerchief wo / Attention, Students! Green Neckerchief in Your Heart / 生徒諸君! 心に緑のネッカチーフを TV Special (1986) [LD AVC MP3]

Image
Contribution Name RAW PPP-Raw LD rip Translation & TS Perevodildo Quality check MartyMcFlies ( LonelyChaser Fansubs ) Includes the main feature and the grueling “making of” bonus, all fully translated. I am sad to inform you that there’s a good reason why this special remained untranslated for so long. Shows like this make me actually appreciate Haikara-san more. Imagine every irritating, nonsensical, hackneyed element of every Shoujo, you’ve seen, then suck out what little originality it had, water it down, and squeeze it all together into a mawkish bubblegum-like feature-length film—and you’ll end up with Seito Shokun. It is mindboggling to me that the Japanese were for some reason hooked up on this series for over 42 years. Most of the Shoujo manga I’ve read is boring but pretty, most of the Shoujo shows I’ve seen are annoying but light; in comparison, Seito Shokun is straight-up cancer, devoid of any of the mentioned redeeming qualities, and the drawing in all of its sequels is...

Otohime Connection / Princess Connection / 乙姫CONNECTION OVA (1991) [LDRip AVC MP3]

Image
RAW: Piyo Piyo Productions non-domesday LD rip. I would’ve preferred to use the video from Yaoi801’s Italian fansub release because it looks better from sheer bitrate, but sadly they hardsubbed it. Translation: Perevodildo Thusly: True Noobow Gamer It’s another one of those show produced solely to advertise new CD releases of the bands popular at the time that feels more like a music video than an anime, like Eiji / Nineteen I’ve done before. Of the 9 songs featured here (AniDB list is wrong btw, the last two songs from it aren’t in this show), all except for  Endless Rain by X Japan  are totally forgettable, and two from the album  Kanjiteruno  by Pliːz are so elusive that they have neither any lyrics nor recordings online. One I could fill in by ear, but the other was completely indecipherable and is the translation is 90% made up. You you ever come across that CD and it happens to have a lyrics booklet included, a .v2 may be on the cards, but is it really wo...

Kaze wo Nuke! / Outrun the Wind! / 風を抜け! OVA (1988) [LDRip AVC FLAC]

Image
RAW:  Jefferson Taylor ’s domesday-captured (on Kineko’s facilities) LD rip and encode Translation: Perevodildo QC: JmePenseBon Includes the main feature, and all the LD bonuses: sponsor promotions, and an “animation restaurant”—short clips from 5 other shows that were also sold on LDs at the time. Sadly, this OVA is another one about the supposed pretentious male romance, where one racer “rebels against the customs” and starts chasing another one to the end of the earth “because their score is not settled yet,  buy the manga to find out how it ends .” The closest example is Bari Bari Densetsu, but I’m sure more offender shows could be found. If you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all. The OVA adapts volume 7 of the source manga, with bits from previous volumes, although the writing is quite different, so take it with a grain of salt. Whoever was doing the audio mastering on this show must’ve been deaf, otherwise it’s a mystery to me how one comes up with such bright idea as dro...

[wowmdildo] Ogami Matsugorou / The Praying Matsugoro / おがみ松吾郎 OVA (1989) [LDrip AVC FLAC]

Image
RAW: WOWmd’s LD rip Translation & TS: Perevodildo Another delinquent OVA that nobody cares about, including myself. I was motivationally challenged while working on this so it’s a lazy TL and TS, with NO quality check, because even the rest of Blasphemboys staff couldn’t be arsed to look at this. We’re chronically short on QCs, so don’t hesitate to reach out to me on  Discord  if you can read or write passable English (not necessary). That said, this was probably the best delinquent show I’ve worked on: it’s shorter, more clever and more bonkers than Rokublueshit, and its super-deformed faces and exaggerated reactions do make for an occasional laugh. The only other delinquent anime I’ve worked on is Shit Shitban Bakushitzaku and that one is so shit that it’s not hard to best it on every front. This OVA adapts the first 2 chapters of the source manga, then jumps immediately to the middle of volume 4 and adapts ~4 more from there. TL notes: •  Look, no matter ...
