On hiatus until January 3rd

We will be on hiatus until January 3rd, 2013.  We hope that everyone has a wonderful holiday, and we'll be seeing you all next year!

I would like to personally thank everyone for all the support through the past year.

I will give everyone an update on our projects once we start back up again. 

Idol Densetsu Eriko Episode 6 released!

In this episode, Kousuke exhibits the "if I can't have her, no one can" behavior in regards to Eriko.  To that effect, he tried his hardest to ruin Eriko's debut.  We won't see if he succeeds until the next episode, though.

My Annette Episode 24 released!

In this episode, Dani throws a temper tantrum after overhearing the truth about his condition.  He runs away from home, which leads to Annette and Pierre running off to look for him.

We are now half-way through the series.  As you know, this is a very emotional arc, and everything will start coming to a head when we see the horse that Lucien is going to carve.  What happens to it will become a pivotal part of what happens next.

The Glass Rabbit XviD version 3

A version 3 of the XviD version of The Glass Rabbit was released.  It fixes the audio issue that was seen in version 2.  Basically, I messed up the encoding and managed to not put in the audio track at all.

I would like to personally apologize for taking so long on this.

Idol Densetsu Eriko Episode 5 released!

In this episode, Ushida whisks Eriko away to a boardinghouse in Hakone, where her training (which is less strenuous now) continues.  Her uncle, unfortunately, tries to look for her, and does things that typically would get you arrested here in the United States.

Idol Densetsu Eriko Episode 4 released!

In this episode, Eriko's uncle prepares for Eriko's debut by hiring a voice instructor and a dance instructor.  However, the dance instructor was unfortunately paid off by Rei's mother to prevent her from debuting.  It results in Eriko being forced to dance to exhaustion, causing Yuki to call Ushida to get her out of the hose.

Tonde Buurin Episode 5 released!

In this episode, Koichi manages to put Karin in a bind when he wanted to do a tug-of-war of the first year students versus Buurin.  However, all the trouble in the city detained her, and she almost missed the event, which would have caused public embarrassment for Koichi.

My Annette Episode 23 released!

In this episode, Dani finds out the lie that was being perpetuated on him.  Annette's worst fears are realized as a result.

Idol Densetsu Eriko Episode 3 released!

In this episode, Eriko sings at the Marine Live Stage in order to calm down the crowds that were locked inside.  Unfortunately, her uncle sees it as a way to exploit her to make him a lot of money.

My Annette Episode 22 released!

In this episode, Dani finds the Noah's Ark that Annette threw into the woodpile.  He does not know that Annette threw it in there, so when he tells Annette, she has a dilemma to face.

My Annette Episode 21 released!

"I will tell you my story, but remember, it is a secret. I have never told it to another person. But you have trusted me, and I will trust you, too."
 

- Treasures of the Snow, Chapter 13 

 

In this episode, we find out the background of the old man in the mountains.  This is a critical point in the series.

Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch Pure Episode 16 released!

In this episode, Lucia, Hanon, Rina, Coco, Noelle, and Karen run a small restaurant that is facing competition from a nearby resort club.  This particular restaurant has a special meaning for Lucia, which hurts her badly when Coco, Noelle, and Karen decided to goof off instead of trying to draw in guests.

An update

Due to some personal issues, I have not been able to devote time to fansubbing work for the last few days.  I would like to personally apologize for the inconvenience.

We should have quite a few episodes of various things coming down the pipeline really soon, though!

Lucy-May of the Southern Rainbow Episode 3 and 1v2 released!

In this episode, Mr. Pettywell's dog causes no small amount of trouble for the family when it snatches a piece of fresh meat, which causes a huge commotion in the camp.

We have also released a version 2 of episode 1.  This version rewords some of the dialogue to fix some issues.

The Glass Rabbit v2 released!

We are releasing a version 2 of The Glass Rabbit.  This encode addresses an issue found by folks on BakaBT.

Special thanks to jackoneill for finding the issue.

As the encodes are taking a bit longer than normal, we'll get the releases out as soon as possible.  The Hi10P version is ready, and the h.264 version shouldn't be too far behind; I am having trouble with the XviD encode and will get that done by tomorrow.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Tonde Buurin Episode 4 released!

In this episode, we see what happens when Karin runs into someone who is dressed like Buurin and wants to be a pro wrestler.

Idol Densetsu Eriko Episode 2 and 1v2 released!

In this episode, Eriko's uncle begins to put his plan in motion to take over the production company and make Eriko's life miserable.  On top of that, something goes wrong during the opening of the Marine Live Stage.

We have also released a version 2 of episode 1.  This version tweaks some of the typesetting to improve the visibility of certain signs.

My Annette Episode 20 released!

"It's for Dani", he whispered hoarsely.  Then his words stuck in his throat, and he stood waiting with his eyes fixed on the ground.

Annette took the Noah's Ark from him, her face white with fury.

"You dare come here!" she burst out at last.  "You dare offer presents to Dani! Go away and don't you ever come here again!"

And as she said it she flung the Noah's Ark with all the strength of her young arm into the woodpile below.  All the little animals lay scattered on the logs.

- Treasures of the Snow, Chapter 10

In this episode, Lucien finishes the Noah's Ark that he was going to give to Dani.  However, Annette has something else in mind for anything that Lucien wants to give to Dani.

Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch Pure Episode 15 released!

In this episode, Lucia, Hanon, and Rina go to investigate abnormally warm water temperatures in the Antarctic.  However, what they find is an insidious plot of Mikeru, led by Sheshe and Mimi, which required the powers of all the Mermaid Princesses to defeat.

As a note, starting from this episode, we will also be using softsubs for the 10-bit h.264 release.  The 8-bit h.264 and the XviD version will still be hardsubbed.

Tonde Buurin Episode 3 released!

In this episode, Karin and Masami get into a tennis match versus Keiko and her cohort due to a "misunderstanding" when the school's playboy tried to perform his version of first aid on Karin.

My Annette Episode 19 released!

In this episode, Lucien visits the old man who lives in the forest.  It turns out that he does woodworking for a living.  In the meantime, Dani finally gets used to walking on crutches, since during the next visit to the hospital, the entire Burnier family is the recipient of bad news regarding Dani's leg.
