Most of you know me as an idiot, occasionally as a niche fansubber. I've been at it since 2019, or rather, since 2022, when I actually started taking it seriously. Now it's four years later, and if my spreadsheet is to be believed, I've worked on the equivalent of 1,200 episodes (or 500 hours) of anime , as a timer, translator, typesetter, or QC, across 230 titles . When I look back at all those projects, I think I feel something like a father's pride. I've always believed in the "friends we make along the way" school of thought, and what a journey it has been. Like most things, this started half as a joke. 2022 was a pretty depressing year for everybody for obvious reasons, so with nothing better to do with my time, I fought back against the depression with subbing. I believed, or rather, convinced myself, that I was doing something worthwhile, something useful to humanity, something that could be called "Beautiful, Helpful, and Good" , in the ...

Raw provider ProxyMan Encoding wowmd Translation, typesetting Perevodildo Translation check TheBoyNamedCrow Editing Paul Geromini This torrent includes both Gootaman OVAs: Gautaman: The Birth {ゴータマン誕生篇} The Final Battle of Love And Sorrow! {愛と悲しみのファイナルバトル} (aka Gootaman R) So, here’s Gootaman. As proxyman put it, It’s a Kekko Kamen-esque series with a LOT of reference/cameos to stuff that would only be possible in the 80s/90s. The DVD version censored out text/voiced names and the second episode DVD was done by Five Ways, who edited in “new” footage as a SEX UP release. I bought the laserdiscs, which are uncut and don’t censor any text/names. and that’s how we ended up doing a new release with LD as the source. Wowmd agreed that the show looked batshit crazy just enough to be enjoyable and encoded proxy’s LD. Having seen parts of the DVD footage, I really do have to wonder what they were cooking with it - most of the censored parts are related to the school facilities, so did they actu...

Tulip Beach Stories No name Day 365 Final Episode Episode 0 sub is based on this translation from wiki. Unfortunately, I can’t really tell who translated it (probably random masters way back in 2009?), but the translation was spotty. Special 4 (Tulip Beach Stories) translation seems to have the same origin. For the rest, it’s my OTL. Episode 0 has this strange number because it was originally released as a limited-edition video for the winners of some Super Famicom lottery in late 1993. Later, on December 28, 1998, it was released again as “Vol.0” for general sale when the rest of the OVA was released. So kind of a similar situation to You’re Under Arrest OVAs and TV (which we’ve also done, but marty decided to stall to kingdom come, duh). As for Special 4 “Tulip Coast Stories,” it was originally include...

Raw AnimeFesta WEBDL, ripped by Eternal_Blizzard (special thanks to Blankaex) Translation, typesetting Perevodildo Editing Paul Geromini, Marty Mcflies ( LonelyChaser fansubs ), imatu The raw is a new 960x720 rescan of the show, ripped from AnimeFesta service by Eternal_Blizzard (he also dug up the lyrics for the ending and insert songs 🧎). While the video looks excellent and sexy, and blows the previously existing 2008 vintage 240p VHS rip out of the water, the audio is so muffled that even the ancient VHS rips have unironically superior MP3 sound. Enter the Toei preservation culture. Safe to assume they binned the masters/audio reels, and this remaster was restored from optical audio or some equally shitty source. I slapped the audio from the old 240p rip on the remastered video and synced it to the best of my ability, like I’ve done before for Magical Taruruuto-kun movies, though the VHS audio also had a few dropouts, during which the sound reverts to shitty for a second (I’ve stil...

Translation Perevodildo Editing Paul Geromini darkcart The project started when Paul found some alleged DVD rip for this on Avistaz. The encoding leaves more questions than answers: why is it 716x372? Why is it forced to display in 2.25:1? Why is it 30 fps? Why is audio AAC? There’s an alternative DVD encode on Rutracker, but it’s even crustier. Needless to say, it was never released on BD or in any form in HD, and it probably never will. It’s a pretty good looking (for 1957) color film, though of course it couldn’t match the scale of “The Bridge over the River Kwai” or “War and Peace” which came out the same year, and I’m not going to sugarcoat it—the whole of this movie is about as good as one episode of Animentary Ketsudan. We’re merely doing our small preservationist part here. Unexpectedly, I found some Japanese subtitles for it on  opensubtitles.com , uploaded in the summer of '25. I’m not sure what’s the deal with those. They are not straight-up whisper transcripts, because ...

Raw provider, encoder, quality checker WOWMD Translation, typesetting Perevodildo Editing Paul Geromini Quality check Muzussawa Marty Mcflies ( LonelyChaser fansubs ) So wowmd bought three copies of the LD for this, unwarped them with his T-shirt press, read through the disk rot with his new fancy short wavelength player, stacked and encoded them. Being the resident professional ChatGPT user, I saw this show for the peak it was, and translated it. Didn’t even look at the kingmenu garbage. Paul and Muzu were willing to be coerced into looking at it too, and Marty wanted to watch it for Toshihiko Seki. The title refers to a Shinkansen line from Tokyo to Osaka that was launched in 1987 with a grand ad campaign. I don’t know how to explain it well, but the ads for it really were bigger than life at the time, and became a cultural phenomenon in itself. The train arrived to Osaka just before midnight, hence the Cinderella association. At the time, it was largely advertised as a ride for love...

’m not on AB, so I can’t tell for sure, but I’m told this rip is by someone called The walked forest, uploaded to nyaa by not tougewolf. The rip is ancient and a fair bit crusty, but I believe it’s the best we’ve got, with the VHS set costing in hundreds of dollars on mercari.

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 ...

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...

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.
