Some news

Due to some personal matters which I need to attend to, I will not be able to conduct fansubbing activities for the rest of this week.  Therefore, we will be on hiatus until Monday, March 5th. 

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Porphy no Nagai Tabi Episode 22 released!

In this episode, Porphy continues west along Italy.  He makes lots of new friends on the way. 

The town he ends up in, Caulonia, will play an important role with the next few episodes.

You can obtain this episode from your standard anime torrent indexing sites.

Porphy no Nagai Tabi Episode 21 released!

 

In this episode, Porphy's backpack goes missing, and he has to somehow find it in Matera.

Little Women II - Jo's Boys Episode 20 released!

This episode is one of my personal favorites.  This one is not in the novel, but it is one of the episodes that talks about what the children at Plumfield want to do when they grow up.  Considering that Louisa May Alcott was rather progressive on her views of what women are capable of doing at that time (namely the late 19th century), it is no surprise that this episode (and the two or three episodes in the last 10 episodes of the series) shows Nan doing things that no one would have expected her to do, even for that era.

You can obtain this episode from your standard anime torrent indexing sites.

This marks the half-way point for Little Women II - Jo's Boys.  Here's what's coming up for the next 10 episodes:

1.  For those of you who missed Dan, he'll be back soon.  In fact, one of the more famous parts of the novel involving Dan and the stolen money is about to come up really soon.

2.  There are already allusions to how much Daisy and Nat care for each other.  We'll see the culmination of that in episode 30.

3.  We're also about to come up to a part where we see how progressive thinking is taught by the Bhaers, in particular about woman's rights.

4.  Nan finally decides for sure what she wants to do when she grows up.

We hope that you will continue enjoying the series.  This series has been a joy to work on.

Porphy no Nagai Tabi Episode 20 released!

In this episode, Porphy somehow ends up in the city of Matera.  What he sees in this city is not what it seems.  This is the first of a two-part series in this city.

My Annette Episode 8 released!

 

In this episode, Lucien and Annette get into a disagreement due to a misunderstanding.  They later patch up and enjoy the fall festival together.

You can obtain this episode from your standard anime torrent indexing sites.

Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch Pure Episode 12 released!

This episode is one of my personal favorites out of the whole series. 

In this episode, Coco gets dreams of a silver shell of which she has knowledge of its power.  She enlists Lucia, Hanon, and Rina to find it.  However, the Black Beauty Sisters get a hold of the shell first, and attempts to harness the power.  Unfortunately, they do not know the true nature of the power they hold.

You can obtain this from your standard torrent indexing sites, or you may download them from the DDL links on Wasurenai's web site.

Little Women II - Jo's Boys Episode 19 released!

"Quite lost, but I did not care, for I made up my mind that it would be best to wait till I was an old lady before I played with kites again; and you see I have waited," said Mrs. Jo, beginning to pull in the big kite, for it was getting late.

"Must we go now?"

"I must, or you won't have any supper; and that sort of surprise party would not suit you, I think, my chickens."

"Hasn't our party been a nice one?" asked Tommy, complacently.

"Splendid!" answered every one.

"Do you know why? It is because your guests have behaved themselves, and tried to make everything go well. You understand what I mean, don't you?"

"Yes'm," was all the boys said, but they stole a shamefaced look at one another, as they meekly shouldered their kites and walked home, thinking of another party where the guests had not behaved themselves, and things had gone badly on account of it.

- Little Men, Chapter 9

For Valentine's Day, we're releasing an episode of Little Women II - Jo's Boys.

This episode involves the ball at Plumfield, which is probably one of the most well-known chapters in the novel.  Those of you who have read the novel will understand how good manners and politeness can go a long way into making something go well, while bad manners and rudeness can go a long way into making something go really horribly.

You can obtain this episode from your standard anime torrent indexing sites.

Porphy no Nagai Tabi Episode 19 released!

In this episode, Porphy arrives in Italy.  He quickly learns a few common sense things about traveling to a foreign country after meeting with a nice stranger on the street.

You can obtain this episode from your standard anime torrent indexing sites.

This is our first release using the new tracker.  Please contact us if you have any difficulties.

Status update

Torrent tracker situation

We're still in the process of moving torrents to a new tracker.  This means a lot of our releases are currently not seeded, as NyaaTorrents' solution to the tracker shutdown is not reliable.  We can do new releases, but migrating all our releases will take time.  We thank you for your patience, and apologize for the inconvenience.

Release scheduling

I'm about 1/3rd of the way through translating Porphy 19.  We'll try to get this released some time this week.  We will be on hiatus from 2/10 to 2/12 as I will be out of town and will not have access to my encoding computer.

My translator for Little Women II has gotten me the script for episode 19.  I will check that before handing it to the timer, and I will be personally translating episode 20 (it is one of my personal favorites).  We should have episode 19 out by Valentine's Day. 

My Annette episode 8 will be scheduled for release for the middle of next week.

Releases are to be suspended for the time being

NyaaTorrents, the torrent tracker we use, has shut down the tracker portion of the web site, effectively turning it into a listing service only.

As we only do releases via BitTorrent, this means we will need to locate a new tracker, migrate all the torrents to the new tracker, and have the torrents seeded.  Until this is done, releases will be suspended.

We apologize for the inconvenience and hope that we can get this situation resolved as quickly as possible.

EDIT: I'm in the process of migrating our torrents to another tracker.  Releases should resume in a day or two.

Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch Pure Episode 11 released!

In this episode, Lucia, Hanon, and Rina invite Mikaru to go shopping with them.  As a result, Kaito ends up coming along.  However, Hanon and Rina attempt to divert Mikaru's attention so Kaito and Lucia can be together.

You can obtain this from your standard anime torrent indexing sites, or you may use the DDL links on Wasurenai's website.

Little Women II - Jo's Boys Episode 18 released!

In this episode, Stuffy was ordered by Jo to go on a diet and exercise regimen.  Unfortunately for her, Stuffy writes about what he had been doing, and his mother heads to Plumfield to pull Stuffy out of there and to insult the students and the school in the process.

Unfortunately for her, Jo got angry. 

This episode is not in the novel, but it was quite good nevertheless.
