NOTICE: Looks like we got trolled by mkvtoolnix v5.2.1, which failed to tag OTF fonts correctly during muxing, breaking the OP style; it should look like this. You can download and use the font fix patch linked above to fix the problem.
So much for trying to get the first episode out before leaving for work (about 6 hours after airing). It was actually translated and timed well before that, but it got delayed because of… you guessed it, typesetting. Among disasters such as broken software, fnord having to go to bed and leaving ar with the signs, and general herpderp, the episode was a giant pain in the ass to typeset and of course, ar just had to get everything right (and we love him for it).
Either way, itโ€™s out now! More Ayatsuji-san is always welcome, especially in the bathroom.
Weโ€™ll look to see how we can iron out the kinks in our subbing process before the next episode airs, so itโ€™s safe to say you can expect a reasonably speedy (if not lightning-fast) release next week.
arEdit: Episode 01 XviD has all the current fixes, including those which will be in the next episode sign wise.

  1. Heh… All I remember from the live stream were the rage meters… and the NTR… and Kusion going “OH SHIT! OH SHIT! OH SHIT! OH SHIT!”

  2. The font styles for the close-ups of the noticeboard seem a bit broken.

    Could be a problem with libass or mplayer2, in which case it probably only affects Linux users. Still, thought I’d point it out just in case.

  3. Experiencing the same problem as Angel; the typesetting seems to be messed up at certain places near the signboard. Using VLC 1.2 on Windows 7. (and yes I also have MPC, but I have problems getting it to work on my computer. It shits out like an acid trip.)
    I feel bad saying this because apparently your typesetter worked hard, but messing up typesetting that is crucial to the story plot (the pre-election results, etc.) is too egregious to overlook.

  4. OH YES!!!! Just in time after watching the raw!!! More Ayatsuji is always welcomed ^^ hope the next will be Nanasaki arc ๐Ÿ™‚

  5. @Angel
    Yeah they are libass bugs. We only test on vsfilter since that is the reference ass subtitle renderer. Not much we can do there unfortunately ._.

  6. It’s finally here! Downloading now… I hope they give us a little bit of a recap, though on the other side it’s a the expense of new stuff. I guess 1 minute recap is sufficient. Anyway, gonna watch this now.

  7. hmmm. Using VLC media player, windows 7. Downloaded. I hear it but all I get for visuals is a green screen.

  8. @flapjackmaka
    just install the latest k-lite lolpack as some ppl like to call it (which i use) or the latest cccp.
    thx 4 the fast release.

  9. @Wonderduck
    If you are on Windows, just extract the patch into the same directory as the mkv, and run the included -win.bat to patch.

  10. I downloaded cccp long time ago. I tried downloading again but it could not uninstall and manual uninstall says file is corrupted
    @ar
    Sorry, I’m not sure where I go on the site. I never had this problem before.

  11. Ah~ it’s finally here~ I know you had a rough time __ar so I’m sure a lot of us really appreciate your hard work along with everyone else that’s working on this project.
    Cannot wait to see more Ayatsuji. *__*

  12. You know, those karaoke supertitles are really friggin’ huge. They must take up about one fifth of the screen and don’t even accomplish anything. I have ears, which make the song transcription pointless, and if I could read the kanji, I wouldn’t need a fansub. Can’t you folks offer a separate subtitle track which just has the translation in a plain font, similar to what the main dialogue uses? It would be pretty great not to have to turn the subs on and off four times per video.
    Never let it be said I’m completely ungrateful, though. Having the thing softsubbed is infinitely preferable to that hardsubbed nonsense, which is just wanktastic graffiti.
    BTW it’s “mouthguard”, not “mouthpiece”. A mouthpiece is something wind instruments have.

  13. Holy shitpickle, Batman! A *NIX patch script that uses the system-installed xdelta3! Gotta love you guys for that in itself. Oh, and the release of course…

  14. Great episode, but everything looked very 8 bit-ish, and then I mean crappy transitions of colors. Is it just me or do others have this too? This hasn’t happened before and MPC has never given me any kind of trouble.

  15. Thanks UTW
    I have no experiencing any problem with the release but if I applied the patch the file got corrupted
    from 272mb it’s reduced to 253mb and stopped playing at the end
    btw, i’m on win 7 64bit
    Thx, just want to let you know

  16. @Mugetsu “8 bit-ish”? i fail to see why 8 bit would mean worse quality? 8 bit simply means bigger files than 10 bit..

  17. >mascthemoney
    ep 13 will probably be about the stalker girl.
    Miya episode will be a bd-only ep just like the last time.
    Well thats what I think but I really would like to see her ep on the TV instead of waiting for the bds.

  18. @Break I don’t think I said it was worse quality. The quality is perfect but there’s a huge amount of color loss. That kind of 8-bit. (I’m really tired so I could be saying things wrong, but I hope you know what I mean now)

  19. Thanks for the release UTW. I just have a question. I experienced a lag at the 04:47-04:52 minute mark wherein there is a typeset made on the blackboard for the election thing. What could possibly be the problem? I had no problem playing 720P before and I am using the latest CCCP pack.

  20. Hells yeah! I’ve been looking forward to this so much.
    Thanks for the great release guys, made me very happy to see you were doing this series too. Appreciate all the hard work.

  21. Thanks for the episode guy. Love ya~ ! God the Amagami girls sure are cute, must not drool !
    Had frame drops during OP (HD fix applied) and 4:40 in the teacher scene.
    Have been using cccp 2011-07-30.
    Maybe i need the 2011-11-11 release now ?
    Didn’t have any problems until now . ๐Ÿ™

  22. @Grumpy Old Fart: Believe it or not, that actually came up. They’re both acceptable terms though (I think it might be a regional thing, but do a little research and you’ll find that they’re both common), and it ultimately came down to the fact that Tsukasa is actually SAYING mouthpiece.

  23. In reference to the Nisemonogatari post.
    I would rather you wait for the BDs anyway. High Profile shows like this need the best in the world. And I feel bad encodes will only ruin the way the creator intended for us to view it.
    I can’t wait for 1080p releases to be aired weekly instead of having to wait on BDs.

  24. >watch opening
    >no Hibiki
    >realize there won’t be a Hibiki route this season either
    WWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

  25. @ChucklesNuts
    well considering how long they are taking on their current blurays, fans such as yourself and UTW better have a strong patience seeing as how long bakemono took to actually finish airing. + the blurays to actually be released

  26. Sooo… relating to your Nisemonogatari post, are you going to do a different show instead, and if you are, which show?

  27. Thank you! Looking forward to the SD release!
    @BakaAnonymous: Out of the blue, UTW did Kill Me Baby with Mazui… that’s probably the replacement project.

  28. Realized something else.
    Crunchyroll’s video quality is fucking horrible. For you to say “oh well, they have 720p” is meaningless.
    I hope Commie doesn’t fuck this up as badly as you guys.

  29. >we’ll be waiting for the BDs
    Just like Index II and the AnoHana batch, right?
    Boy, I sure do love waiting nearly an entire year because of lazy faggots.
    The supposed 2012 end of the world will happen before UTW releases Nisemonogatari BDs. Count on it.

  30. Fuck you guys. Your lives come first? More like: “We’re too fucking lazy and self-important to do it because we’ve haven’t dropped out from community college yet”.
    Get bent you fucking disappointments.

  31. To all who keep bitching about Nisemonogatari
    Find other fansbubber, no one forced you all to use this release

  32. While I am disappointed in the final decision (in regards to Nisemonogatari), I will agree that it’s a good decision in the long run.
    Anyway… I’m glad that I got to watch it after work. I don’t think I’d appreciate this as much as I would have if I were to watch it before work. I can never get enough of Ayatsuji. There’s just a certain charm that she has whenever she frowns. It’s just too damn cute.

  33. It’s ONLY 12eps!?!?!?!? FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
    There’s no Hibiki route?! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
    Still love your work though, thank you so much

  34. Yay moar Amagami! Though, somehow I don’t understand why they need to make a cliffhanger episode when we all know that Tachibana and Ayatsuji up married with a kid….

  35. @Balance, well… yeah. That’s probably a good decision – UTW would feel pressure to release it as fast as they can but at the same time they would have to be wary of not making mistakes as a quality group… At least BD ver will be flawless (if it comes out :P)
    I’m just pissed at CR, the cause of problem.
    Onto episode – [spoiler]Amagami, Ayatsuji episode, fanservice… of course it’s good. However, it could be better imo, there’s too much negativity, I don’t watch this show for drama. I hope they’ll surprise me next week but it isn’t looking great right now.[/spoiler]

  36. well, as long s oyu dont take too long when the blurays coem out. speakign f whihc, are the dates for the blurays of this out? i mean when they actually come out.
    also, at least you now have more time to do carnival phantasm, right?right?

  37. heh what nick j said although that would require a lot of effort though ๐Ÿ˜ก anyways damn guys you aren’t even paying for anything and still complain about something free. learn some manners before insulting ppl that do this in their spare time and get nothing for it :/

  38. Yeah, I agree. I mean, if I give you this ice cream with shit sprinkles for FREE, then what right do you have to complain about it?
    You should just eat the shitty ice cream and be happy.

  39. Thank you so much for providing a bash script for the patch. I always hate rebooting to windows or redownloading a v2.

  40. How are they gonna handle this one? In the first season, each girl’s arc was way too short to be considered a route. Might as well skipped all of the half-ass stuff and get straight to the fucking.

  41. I dunno what happened here, just wanted to say I love you guys! Thanks for all the hard work as always ๐Ÿ™‚

  42. @Grumpy Old Fart: I box. And I have two mouthpieces. One I use during my sparring and the other during I sing out loud with those wonderful karaoke (and follow the kanji to learn myself).
    If you have problems with the subs, you can always look for some other group. I wish you luck to find a better one than this.

  43. @shani
    You’re kidding… you learn kanji from fansub karaoke? Even though this method won’t teach you all the different readings and meanings? Or teach you how to go English to Japanese? Or teach you how to recognise the radicals?
    Do you have an eidetic memory? If not, I think you’re an utter mentalist (maybe lay off the boxing?) but I wish you best of luck all the same.
    No, scratch all that. You actually sing along during the song sequences? Dear God, I didn’t think people really did that.

  44. @Anonymous
    Should probably lay off the ice cream for awhile, especially if you’d rather complain than just get outta’ there.
    Thanks, UTW, for the great release, even though the episode itself sort of pissed me off.

  45. My system is WinXP sp3 , cccp 2011-11-11(default settings), athlon 64 3700+.
    During teacher scene 4:47 when it’s scrolling sideways with the words “student council president election” appearing, it lags like hell for just a few seconds
    My fault ? It’s really bugging me. Maybe my CPU just isn’t enough anymore ?

  46. Daaayuuuum… I’m a little disappointed I can’t watch it from UTW, but some of the people here have anger issues.
    Anyway, I can wait for the BD’s. I’ll watch the release from somewhere else for now, and I’ll watch it again when you do the BD’s. If you are going to use Kill Me Baby as a replacement then that’s too bad, I’ll only be watching Amagami from you this season, but on the other hand I guess it’s a good thing because I already barely have enough time to keep up with anime.

  47. ..Sorry for double post.. @Zet correct me if I’m wrong, I haven’t watched the first episode yet, but from what I’ve read doesn’t this season continue each girl’s arc? So it will be a little longer.

  48. After watching this anime, it makes me forgive you guys for not subbing nisemonogatari. Nice job guys… really appreciate it ๐Ÿ˜€

  49. Don’t lie about NIsemono. Even if you will encode BD relases, you probably don’t finish it up. ๐Ÿ™ So pick some GOOD (not piece of shit like Kill me baby) show instead of it, for example Another!
    BTW. By watching Nisemono from CR/HorribleSubs you will get an eye cancer (video ‘quarity’, fuckin TS etc.)!!

  50. @GFO: Another is ALSO simulcasted by CR. Sorry but UTW probably won’t do it.
    On another note…when is the SD going to come out? It’s been quite a while and I’m looking forward to it…

  51. Actually about Nisemonogatari, it is more sensible to just do the BD’s now that I think about how much on screen text there was in Bakemonogatari. I’d be surprised if the wait was only 24h and by then, probably over half of the regular viewers would have gone to CR anyway.

  52. I noticed that around 4:46ish (when the teacher was talking about the election) that there a slight bit of lag there. Anyone else seeing this?

  53. my my, people, calm down about nisemonogatari; as we know SHAFT, the BD#s will be more like the real deal than the TV release anyways (though they did get better about that), und Commie is doing the TV release too so that shoudl suffice for now right? no use bitchering about it.

  54. Holy hell I can’t believe the amount of fucked up brats here. You guys somehow feel you are ENTITLED to the subs or something? Have you forgotten all the other anime UTW has subbed? Just shut the fuck up and be grateful you damn brats

  55. After 8th’s review and Commie’s release, we can thankfully rest assured now and patiently wait for BD with even more TLC/QC slapped on glorious 1080p. Will be worth waiting.
    Thank you good sir for fixing tag earlier.

  56. ็ตข่พปใ•ใ‚“ใฏ่ฃ่กจใฎใชใ„็ด ๆ•ตใชไบบใงใ™ใ€‚
    Excellent screencap for the OP.

  57. Much love for subbing this.
    It’s always good to watch quality and not fail subs.
    Can’t wait for ep 2 xD

  58. I noticed only now while stopping by your site (as I do every once in a while) that the second season of a favourite show of mine back in time has already just started. Time flies like an arrow, haha. I used to eagerly wait for your releases during the first season, so guess what I’m about to do now? Thanks a lot for this most welcome surprise!

  59. i have a small problem, when i opened it,the video is green screen,but has sounds and audios,fonts are pretty,i tried watching my other animes,no problem,so it must be your video,so if possible, can you fix it plz? thank you, also i love your group very much

  60. It would appear that your player is unable to decode the video. Make sure your computer and player are capable of decoding Hi10P (VLC 1.1.x, for instance, can’t do that, while nightly betas of VLC 1.2 can) in order to watch the HD version. Otherwise, just use the SD version.

  61. Just like to add that I’m another one of the several here who have problems with lag during the “names on blackboard” scene. Latest CCCP with MPC used.
    Thanks for the quality subs!

  62. Hey all. I don’t know if anyone is still having problems with the video lagging at around 4:46, but I was so I asked about it on the UTW irc channel. tp7 gave me the advice to install xy-VSFilter. It worked perfectly for me, so maybe it’ll work for others, too. You can get it here: http://code.google.com/p/xy-vsfilter/
