I had a chance to pop into a GAME store today and test out one of their demo PSVita models, so here is a quick review/first impressions post about it. I didn’t get too much time with it, but I played a couple of games and messed with some settings. Also explored all the ports. No chance to mess with additional peripherals, but I’m told there’s an official PSVita earphones set that comes free if you pre-order (blue earbud-style earphones, I’m told). Anyway, moving on swiftly, I’m going to ignore any and all technical notes and give my impressions and my impressions only. I don’t care if what I “think” or “feel” is contradictory to what the technical specifications of the device. So if you want to believe numbers over how your eyes and fingers work, be my guest.

Moving onto my experience.

I don’t know how many people even follow this site anymore (I do know I still am getting hits every day, so that’s a good sign at least). In any case, I figured an update was due since I’ve posted nothing for a long time.

IX is finally alive again. And as a result, the Clannad + After Story project is resuming. But not quite the way it was before. IX and I have decided that we’ll be merging our respective groups together into kureshii’s (remember him from Taipu? He helped us out a lot with Eve no Jikan) group, Zettai Unmei Mokushiroku (ZUM). Our only active project now is Clannad. We will focus on this for as long as it takes to get good quality subs out for Clannad. After that, I intend to pursue some other fansub projects, mainly shows that I feel never got good enough BD/DVD releases (ZKC, etc.).

If anyone is willing to help us out (and we could always do with more help!), please join Rizon and message me (Southrop) ASAP! We’re looking for additional TLs and timers mainly at the moment. KFXers/K-Timers are also wanted, but are of lower priority.

Basically, Nyaa redid their tracker completely. Links still all work, but the old torrent files no longer work. And as such, pretty much all the torrents of stuff I’ve released are dead. I have no intentions of bothering to go back and reseed them all, since the need for most of them is probably gone. All releases are still available on IRC via our XDCC bot, Chaos|Hina.

Well, this is another one of the things that I’ve been delaying for a long time. Thanks very much to MetalGear25 for finding the lossless source! At long last, this album can see a lossless release and my collection on BakaBT can finally be complete!

BakaBT: Basquash Music Collection [FLAC]

Torrents: FLAC | MP3

XDCC: See here

edit: I know I tagged the two Eclipse songs wrong. I fixed those for the BakaBT collection, but I can’t be fucked to redo the archives.

I’ve been stalling this for months now, and I finally got it released. Perfect as a new years gift! So Happy New Year!

Thanks muchlies to kureshii who actually bought the soundtrack and sent me a copy of the ISO. If it weren’t for him, this lossless version would never have been released to the intarwebz! Believe me, I’ve spent days scouring Share and PD for a lossless rip. There were none to be found.

And as always, if you are a translator and enjoyed our work on Eve no Jikan, please consider joining us to help translate the prequel light novels!

It’s my birthday~

That is all.

Remember me announcing us picking up Bungaku Shoujo? Well, there’s been no progress so far. We’re waiting on the translator (who’s not me, by the way) to actually translate stuff for us. I think he said that he wanted to finish off some other project first, but we have no idea when that’ll happen.

Anyway, that aside, I’ve become really rather busy with Uni properly starting and having 21 hours a week of teaching, tutorials, mentoring and labs all put together.

However, I would still like to pursue some fansubbing, though I’d like to take things slowly. Like… very slowly. lol. Anyway, we’re always on the lookout for new talent to join the group. If you watched Eve no Jikan and enjoyed it, and want to help the group, please consider joining. We are very short on translators at the moment, and that is causing the delays on all our projects (I’m the only translator in the group at the moment D:).

If we can assemble a team large enough, we may consider picking up a weekly show that currently only has shitsubs.

We’re going to do the Bungaku Shoujo Movie. We’re then going to continue and sub the rest of the Bungaku Shoujo OVAs. Well, that’s the plan, at any rate. I’m expecting things to crop up to delay us, but I’d like to get these done no matter how long it takes us. Note that this will be a joint the same way that Eve no Jikan Movie was done (virtual joint~).

I’ve also formed up a joint with Wasurenai to finish subbing Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari. After I finish TLCing their final few episodes, I’ll then go on to do v2s of all the releases myself to fix hardsubbed errors, translation errors, etc. This is one of my slow background projects.

An update on Zettai Karen Children: this project is still happening. It’s stalled on the fact that I just received a pack of questions from UCL for me to do before term starts (27th for anyone who cares) and that II-Subs pulled from the joint so I have to wait before I can get raws. These are my choices for ZKC:

1. Wait for II-Subs to provide raws to me slowly (3 eps at a time) over an FTP.
2. Encode the 7 or so ISO volumes I’ve already downloaded.

The second option involves learning to encode too :/

And as always, we’re still recruiting, especially for our manga/novel translation department! We have loads of projects were interested in doing, but no staff to work on them!

When did it start?

When did people walking in the streets start to have red rings glowing above their heads?

And when did the people not crowned with a ring start becoming fewer and fewer?

If you don’t already know, there’s a prequel short light novel for Eve no Jikan. I’m trying to work on translating it, but it’s rather difficult. Recruiting any and all help I can get in the TL department!

Today, we have the final product of our joint with MII and mysterious guest typsetter and editor kureshii! We present to you the Eve no Jikan movie!

I’m going to be uploading releases slowly one at a time because I’m lazy like that. But for now, here’s some SD goodness to keep you guys waiting!

Update: Scripts have been uploaded~
Update 2: All releases are out! I’ve updated the links below to NyaaTorrents links. These will allow you to download from BakaBT even though it’s still in the swarm protection period! 720p and 1080p are still waiting to upload to my XDCC bot.
Update 3: NyaaTorrents links removed. They decided to delete the torrents :|

Torrents: 576p | 720p | 1080p
