DOWNLOAD SCRIPT: [UTW] Angel Beats – 13.ass
Beautiful episode. I’m still BAWWWing.
Don’t be shocked at the filesize: the episode was very static, and thus our encoder decided it was pointless to encode at the usual bitrate. Rest assured that there is no decrease in quality.
Batch will come soon, along with perhaps the first Bluray episodes. On another note, expect the BGata batch sometime this weekend, assuming things go according to plan.
the end…..
goodbye, my friends……
“along with perhaps the first Bluray episodes”
MUST DOWNLOAD IT!
OH GOD THE TEARS WON’T STOP!
wow thank you guys, ^^ let’s see what happen ^^
Well once the BDiSO for Volume 1 becomes available, you’ll get the first 2 eps + creditless op/ed not too long after 🙂 I’ve already prepared ep1+2 scripts with a set of pretty decent PD raws, so itll be straight forward to move the scripts to my own encodes cause even Jap encoders have trouble messing up progressive blu-ray encodes, other than using shitty AAC audio of course. I’ll be doing 1080p’s first and 720p’s shortly after.
i cant say that i cried but i did feel like it.
@ar…..so…which audio format u will use for Angel Beats! 1080p?
i hope it will be FLAC….
Um depends if I do ordered chapters. I’m still undecided, if I do ordered chapters then I will be using AC3. If i decide to go the alternate route then I will be using FLAC. The alternate route is encoding the creditless op/eds (where valid) as replacements for the regular OP/ED with credits during the actual episode encode. Trim out originals, trim in creditless versions, and mostly for the ED make sure the audio matches the original exactly. It’s a little bit more work, and adds quite a bit more preparation time to do it correctly, but then it solves the after-encode headaches that ordered chapters + FLAC bring to the surface.
I personally won’t do ordered chapters + FLAC cause there isn’t one FLAC decoder out there that can actually do it 100% correctly 100% of the time. MPC-HC internal flac decoder breaks some stuff and fixes others, same with FFDShow flac decoder, breaks some stuff and makes others work right. The other alternatives suck even more.
I encode AC3 with a non-shitty encoder (Soundforge Dolby Pro AC3 Encoder) and I actually know how to encode properly with it, setting up dialog norm, decode flags, and that kinda stuff, so there isn’t very much difference in most cases when using LPCM 2.0 as source at least from what I can tell between a VBR flac with -8 and a correctly encoded 320kbit CBR ac3. Now if something comes with a nice audio track, that’s a diff story but anime never does (at least not tv based) and the difference between using FLAC and AC3 is 1) ac3 doesnt fuck up with ordered chapters, and always works right, and 2) audio spectrum is usually nearly identical between a 60-70mb ac3 and a 110mb flac for most ones I’ve done personally. The LPCM 2.0 tracks are usually average at best, they aren’t mastered all that greatly, and honestly using FLAC with them is pretty pointless most of the time. Mind you I encode all my music in FLAC, because FLAC is amazing for music, but when you’re talking about tv series (anime/real life) it’s not really any better than AC3, it’s actually much more annoying to use cause of decoding bugs. I’ll use FLAC if I think it’s worth using, otherwise I’ll be using 320kbps AC3 2.0.
Though if I use AC3 and FLAC is actually worth using, ie. there is benefits of it but I decide on ordered chapters, I’ll probably be inclined to release flac audio tracks in mka format and ill write up a custom mkvmerge batch to mux them in after (write seguid to linked files, write track order out the same for each file, that kinda stuff), since ordered chapters break when u dont mux every file the same.

Good work.
Ugh.
So, hi everyone. Most of you will probably not think this is a huge deal, and may not have even noticed, but I feel awful about it. The explanation is long and boring, but if you give a shit, see below.
[spoiler]My fiancee and I are buying a house, and the ONLY day that we could get an inspector out there to look at it just happened to be the same day as the finale of the show I’m working on. Great, right?
So I had to wake up early, and rush my ass off to get the script done, go to the inspection, get home, shower, and then work all night at the hospital with no time to properly review the script. I actually fixed some of the errors I’d made, but because of that rush I didn’t have time to properly communicate the changes. I asked Raze to QC for me, but while editing is one thing, he shouldn’t have to expect outright translation errors from me. He probably wasn’t expecting something so dumb, and thus a fairly major error made it through into the final release. If I’d had the time to do the QC myself, it never would have happened…and I honestly am still not totally sure how it got through even pre-QC. I fixed it almost immediately. Kusion is just way too fast at his job, I guess. Anyway, I’m gonna talk with Raze later today to find out if it made it into the avi. I really hope not. It was a busy day, nonstop, and even though it was stressful trying to do it at top speed, the finale of Angel Beats was one of the bright spots in it. So that makes it all the more frustrating to think that I screwed up the very last episode.[/spoiler]
Anyway, the dialogue at 20:11 SHOULD say [spoiler]”When you got the rest of your memories back, it was because you were dreaming on my chest. The rhythm of your own heartbeat brought it back to you.”[/spoiler]
I don’t remember exactly what I originally put, but it was not correct, and I didn’t fix it before it made its way into the script. I try to take my job as TL as seriously as I can, so it really makes me feel like an ass when I make dumb slipups like this. Sorry everyone, and I’ll be more careful in the future. Being busy isn’t an excuse for shoddy work.
Thanks for everything, this definetely was the best show of the whole season, and the work you put in it to make it reach us, is most appreciate it
by the way…
[spoiler]
Dialogue: 0,0:16:23.29,0:16:25.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If you see Yuri, give her my regards.
In that line aren´t they talking about Yui (the pink tornado, ultra energetic girl), rather than Yurippe???
[/spoiler]
I Can’t believe it… It was a beautiful ending…. My Tears won’t stop…. T_T Thanks for your hardwork……!!!!
Wow, I can’t believe it. I NEVER cry when I watch something. I may get teary eyed, but I NEVER CRY. Here I am though, like a leaking faucet. Thanks for your hard work guys, your teh best =D
@ar
As there are differences within the OP and ED for every episode, wouldn’t that automatically rule out using ordered chapters in any case?
I hate AND love the very last seconds of this episode xD
thank you for all your work,seeded eps 6-13 =D
Can we expect a patch? or will your error be fixed on blu ray release?
Hah, that bastard Maeda Jun. he did it again. just that he saved the most special scene (imho) to the last minutes of the last episode. Didn’t expect [spoiler]Kanade being someone who was saved by Otonashi dying. I still dunno what to think about the last seconds though… haha… T_T i kinda expected to see Hinata together with Yui since the moment Yui departed. Well, i guess they decided to show Kanade and Yuzuru instead…[/spoiler] Thank you for subbing this show, UTW, don’t worry too much about the mistake, Ershin. We’re all human.
Looking forward to the BDs. And I hope they aren’t some shitty upscales.
@Clask: That’s what I thought too. It makes more sense.
thanks for a great show… and the end was just perfect, well now lets move on to the next project hehe i expect more good works as this and b gata
@Kojika
OP is pretty much the same every episode except for the Yui OP (LiSA sung version). The ED is only the same on maybe 4 or 5 episodes. So i’ll probably end up just encoding the Creditless ED into those episodes as a straight replacement for the version with Credits. So far Episode 1 which aired with no OP has the OP included on the Blu-Ray so it looks like they’ll probably include it with every episode (even the ones that didn’t air with it).
Thanks for subbing this series. It’s not the best I have seen, especially due to the holes in the story, but it was still very enjoyable.
Just pointing out a small mistake that I spotted which you might correct for a possible Blu-ray release.
3m, 30s: “That one you guys broadcastED to the whole school, right?”
Looking forward to what new series you have in store for us.
I’ve said it earlier, but saying it again won’t hurt: awesome release from you guys.
This last ep caught me by surprise actually. To me the end seemed to come way too fast… but after watching this ep I feel kinda satisfied with the whole series anyway.
patch, I don’t think we’re going to do a patch, but it will most definitely be fixed in both the batch release and for the blu-rays. I’m actually going through the scripts for all of the previous episodes one by one to make sure that they’re as complete/accurate as possible. I’ll ask about taking down the current script and replacing it though. That’s the least we can do.
@ar
The OP sequence may start out the same, but you’ll find that the background scenes then change for each episode. Likewise, in the ‘regular’ ED sequence some characters are posed differently, or their position within the group changes, from one episode to the next.
This god damn show made tears come out of my eyes twice, Yui and this episode. That’s really fucking hard to do. Amazing series, definitely one of my all time favorites. Wish we had learned more about other chars though, like TK. All in all great job guys, can’t wait for High School of the Dead
Kojika is right. The OP -is- different for every episode. In the second part you see some scenes from the episode the OP belongs to. AFAIK, the creditless OP is ep2 only. Ending -> what kojika said. I’d say, include the creditless as an extra and leave the op/ed as is. No need for ordered chapters here, saying this a an ordered chapters fan.
I never really looked that hard at the OP I guess! In that case I won’t bother with ordered chapters. I think the ED varies too then.
Cried. Watched it again. Cried. Good episode so sad that it is over!!!!! [spoiler]Was kinda sweet to see Otonashi and Kanade meet again.[/spoiler]
(Tags added)
^ you know, the spoiler tags are to put spoilers into them.
[spoiler]interesting so the school is in a time loop? so if you stay long a nuth it loops back on its self. it makes me think that its possible that the programmer of the love thing who went insane and turned in to an NPC could of been Otonashi. it had that kind of look about it, but that last seen kind of killed that idea. tho if he turned in to an NPC and it looped back he could of dispersed way back after he met her a gen when she first entered the world of the dead. it kind of all rounds off that way if ya think about it[/spoiler] i wounder if thats the impression thay were tiring to give.
ah crap.. thanks for subbing by the way. Thank you… …So much. ha lol
oh and [spoiler]when he falls over after she disperse and stars randomly grabbing at the air looks really funny with the sound off.. with the sound, its just sad. him cracking is still pretty sad with no sound to[/spoiler]
Gah wah uh argh um oo so… uhh… I just.. I.. I… DAMN IT KEY! I feel like I want more, but at the same time, I don’t. *gurgle* *dies*
[spoiler] Storrm, No, I don’t think the school is in a time loop. I think what he was trying to say was he wanted to stay there and help anyone else who would come along who refused to accept their life. Most of all, really, he just wanted to be there with Kanade. Question for the masses though: Do you think Otonashi was drawn towards Kanade because he subconsciously felt a bit of himself in her? (Partly making a pun with this, yes, yes I am.)[/spoiler]
thank you guys for doing a great job subbing.
somehow i thought at the ending credits that i wouldn’t be able to feel the feelings i felt right then if it weren’t for you. (did i type in too many f’s there)
it really was beautiful.
is it just me or there is a hole in the story?
[spoiler]
so kanade came to that school looong before otonashi (she had quite a few friends that come and go before him). but in the last episode she said that she had a heart implant from otonashi, which means she died AFTER him. get it?
so i have to agree with storrm, i think there is a timeloop in the story…
[/spoiler]
Regarding the hole in the story:
[spoiler]It’s possible that it took a while for him to actually arrive in that world. Maybe the manga has a better explanation? After all, this anime was quite rushed..[/spoiler]
I have a question of my own. [spoiler] Maybe I missed this, but why did otonashi arrive at the school at all if he did have a fulfilling life? Why did he continue to stay after he realized he did?[/spoiler]
@Stormm,
[spoiler]
Through the link he formed with Kanade due to the beating of his heart, the spirit found it’s way back to her place and time, and the memory of his former life afforded him a chance where he could decide his own reincarnated form. He found life in death, and the only place that held the possibility of granting his wishes, was being able to live in a world that she lived in. For all the wishes he granted, he was given a chance to make his own one come true.
[/spoiler]
Something like that anyway.
Thanks for releasing this series! It was really great, I enjoyed it.
Raze, I hope you upload this to BakaBT so that other’s will watch this instead of another groups’.
Also, I hope you guys use a bolder font next season, the one you used in this series was a little too thin.
@DragoZERO
Nothing against UTW’s subs especially since I congratulate them on getting good quality subs into this series so early (I dislike speedsubs), but from what I’ve heard BakaBT will most likely be taking staticsubs’ 720p version. Not sure about 1080p when the BD’s are released but I’d assume staticsubs will probably put their scripts in them as well. But you never know.
Why would anyone get hardsubs over softsubs? Yes, the hardsub karaoke does look nicer, but I’d rather have the untouched video.
I might include new encodes of ep 3-5, 7-9 in the batch pack. 1-2 well the bd is out. So no point encoding those if they aren’t from the BD. Can’t find ep6, and I dont think 10-13 have aired yet. Once I grab all the BS11 transport streams I’ll see if it’s worth it. They are much higher bitrate, I think they were around ~25mbps avg and 1920x1080i vs the TBS which were ~13-15mbps avg and 1440x1080i anamorphic.
They do have a silly big red logo though, but the quality is much higher too.
@Xiro, I noticed that as well. It was weird for me and I’ve been thinking about that for whole day. Then I came to one possibility:[spoiler] Otonashi knocked out in the dead world for very very very long, and Kanade died as soon as she got the implanted heart.[/spoiler] HAHA.
Another thing though, in the Guild episode (2nd I think) I seriously wanted Otonashi to be with Yurippe at the end of the story. I would say ‘damn the maapo toufu’ for tearing them apart! =P
Xiro, I have a similar theory to ultimatepichu.
[spoiler]Kanade’s regret was that she was never able to thank Yuzuru for giving her life. Yuzuru didn’t actually HAVE any regrets. Kanade came straight to the Shinda Sekai after she died, but Yuzuru lost his way and wandered in there. Considering that they were both dead, and that time probably works very differently after death, it’s not entirely unbelievable to think that Yuzuru simply took longer to reach the SS than Kanade did. That’s why she had been there for much longer than him, even though she died later. I’ve heard other theories saying that maybe Otonashi couldn’t actually fully pass over until the owner of his heart had passed on. I’m not sure I’m on board with that, but it’s an interesting theory as well.[/spoiler]
Either way, I don’t think there’s any timeline inconsistencies.
Thanks UTW for this great release!
We’ll see us on the summer series 😛 (Thats soon! woot!)
hahaha, a lot of theories, but no definite answer. T_T
well, i think that’s what make the series more interesting to watch.
@ultimatepichu
YES!! that’s exactly what i thought when i watch that episode. mainly because yurippe reminds me of someone from the SOS brigade :p
but most importantly, big thanks to everyone from UTW. i really like your work!!
i only have 2 bookmarks on my browser, the first one is facebook, and i think you know what the other one is. (just in case, yes its UTW 🙂 )
Hopefully we’ll have episode 1 & 2 of the Blu-Ray in 720p up today sometime. The 1080p won’t be for at least another couple of days since I won’t have that much time to work on them, and they are still encoding right now.
This is what I’m doing with them.
720p – AC3 320kbps Audio
1080p – Flac 24-bit Audio
So why may you ask is there no flac on the 720p, the answer is simple. At ~260-270mb for each episode the FLAC makes no sense for the 720p. I might upload it as .mka if people want to mux it themselves though, but I definitely have no plans of including it muxed in the 720p myself.
I’ll be including the commentary tracks as separate .mka files encoded in 192kbps AC3 in case people want to download them as well.
I won’t be including the Creditless OP/ED as individual files because it’s pointless. Instead I spliced them into episode 2, the episode they were made from, and now Episode 2 has creditless op/ed. I also spliced the web previews into both the episodes of the regular flying kana previews. So they both have video previews now.
It came out very nice imho. I don’t think any other group will be going to nearly this much effort for a finished product.
Thanks for the great work guys!
I had just one problem: I got the series from a batch torrent called “[UTW]_Angel_Beats”. I don’t know if anyone from this site had anything to do with that, but if you did, please note that episode 5 is missing. The file labeled episode 5 is actually a copy of episode 6.
Just thought you should know! 🙂
With regards to the batch, Ershin has been over the scripts and made fixes and stuff, right now it’s in my hands so it might take a while since I’m the main one working on it. There’s quite a lot that needs to be done, both in preparation for the BD releases, and to make it a high quality batch. A lot of the signs need redoing because they were rushed, there’s quite a few timing bleeds which need fixing which means going over each episode one by one, also I’ve re-encoded a couple of episodes so far (3 & 8) using BS11 transport streams. Also need to redo the insert songs with official lyrics, and last of all the official lyrics for episode 13 ED (Ichiban no Takaramono non-LiSA version) aren’t out until late July.
So we haven’t forgotten about it, just a lot of work to do and I can only fit in so much between work and other real life commitments.
Just thought I’d let you guys know.
nice subs, do u have the Special EP of it? in 720p MKV?
