Arakawa UtB Dropped

I’m sure you’re aware that we have been stalled since the end of May. We lost the translator for the show, and I have had 0 luck with recruiting a new one and trying to convince the few translators I know to help. I waited this long to drop it because I was hoping the original TL would come back.

I don’t feel bad for stalling last time since the QCers and encoder were busy all weekend this time, lol. By the way, if you don’t think the stuff in this episode could really happen, you’re not clearly remembering high school. If you’re in high school and still don’t believe, get a girlfriend.

How to Be a F*nsubber

Merines — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 21:36:55 +0000

1. Unmux subs from Horriblesubs release (or from someone else who did)
2. Encode transport stream
3. Shift subtitle timing
4. Copy opening/ending from actual fansub group (when available)
5. “Edit,” “check translation” (add honorifics, switch name order, reword some sentences)
6. Add pretty fonts and karaoke effects
7. ???
8. Profit (as long as you’re the fastest)
9. Release v2 for all the errors your viewers told you about
Extra: Call it “meta” as an excuse for anything you do that may be viewed as unpopular or incorrect

Addendum: If you and a couple friends have finished Japanese 102, start your own fansub group and release shit because you have no experienced timers, editors or encoders and refuse to joint or (shock!) join an established group.

We should’ve been faster on this episode, but I delayed it by being gone all weekend. Oops.

Did you ever like a girl/woman and start hanging out with her, only to get the creeping feeling that she’s just toying with you? Playing with your emotions for her own amusement?

Couple continuity gaffes: You may notice (if you can read the crazy Astragius font) that the club’s name reads “Fantum” but we subbed it as “Fantom.” Well, in the original series, the sign over the club did indeed read Fantom, and Manga Corps’ official translation reflected this. Second, I’m pretty sure Coconna originally performed with a guy playing the piano, not a player piano. Yeah, I’m sure Gotho is ballin’ enough to order a special player piano and have someone make a special music roll, but still… x.x
