Fall 2011 "Plans"

September 29, 2011 4:20 am / 174 Comments /

Here’s where we are so far regarding our plans for the Fall 2011 season.

  • We’ll be picking up Fate/Zero as our signature Fall 2011 project (no, we don’t care if Aniplex is translating it into 8 different languages if they’re going to stream in shitty 360p). We’ll be using the Aniplex subs as a base unless they turn out to be utter shit. We’ll be using MBS caps (which air 2.5 hours later than the first airing), meaning a “delay” of 2.5 hours but also a higher quality video and audio source.
  • iM@S continues into Fall 2011, being a 2-cour show. I can only hope the team’ll find it in them to stop delaying releases for days.

…and that’s all that we can say for sure. We really don’t know what else we’ll pick up at this point in time. The only other Fall 2011 show I really wanted to do (Haganai) is oversubbed, so much of this rests on what Moshi and/or 8thsin decide to pick up, what shows end up being on-the-dot simulcasted, and whether the scheduling falls into place in terms of air times, supporting staff etc.
I guess this is also the place to mention that we’ll be switching to 10-bit x264 encodes for the Fall 2011 season (put simply, you’ll be getting better video for smaller filesizes at a small compatibility sacrifice). We’ll probably keep doing XviDs as our compatibility release, though.

Seizon – iM@S 12 Pic

September 27, 2011 1:19 am / 45 Comments /

This time it isn’t Daiz’s fault. Kusion is too busy working on some mahoushoujo flick (Cardcaptor Sakura iirc) to finish off IM@S or something. The rest of us at UTW have nothing to do with the IM@S project so get mad at him for being slack, and not the group as a whole. When he stops slacking off you’ll get your IM@S.
Anyway, since I don’t care about IM@S have another Seizon pic instead. You will get a new Seizon pic every time IM@S is delayed and I have to make a post about it.

The release of this episode marks the conclusion of the Angel Fix arc and the end of the Kamimemo series! It’s been quite a ride, with the project staff displaying greatly varying levels of enthusiasm/apathy throughout the project, but we made it!
We here at UTW were pleasantly surprised JCStaff handled the ending episode pretty well unlike a certain anime earlier this year about armed detectives.
As is customary for us with the end of every series, here’s the staff curtain call!
8thsin (Translator): There were some really boring episodes in between, but KamiMemo started strong and ended on a high note for me. Alice and Major were a nightmare to translate, and fansubbing 2 days in a row was tough, but it was a nice challenge. I really enjoyed working on my very first show here. Hopefully there will be more series for me to translate before everything gets simulcast.
Kusion (Editor): It was a bit of a challenge to work on this every Friday. I wasn’t much of a fan, especially when they did what they did to Ayaka. After seeing the end, though, I noticed how fun of a project it is. Hopefully we’ll get a season two, so we can see more about what happens here (but if there is a season two, remove Alice pls).
commander`A (Timer/Typesetter that never showed up): SHIT CARTOON SUCKED HOPE YOU ALL DIE (*￣▽￣*)
ar (Typesetter/Encoder/Comfag’s Fallback Timer): I did my work plus others’ work, such is life lol~. The series needed to be longer to show us the grim dark feel of the novels, but at least one thing is for certain, JC Staff didn’t ruin the ending. Somebody must have their script writers on a leash this time around! Also Comfag stinx pretty intensely.
Raze (QC): I had to juggle tutoring my kawaii highschool student and fansubbing this on my Saturdays. QC’ing proved to be a pretty tough job when either 1) Eighthsin lacked sleep/was sick; or 2) Kusion decided to go to bed and leave editing to me. Things usually went well when they were both around though~
I shall announce our Fall 2011 “plans” sometime in the next few days.
And that’s it from us! Please enjoy the final episode!
arEdit: PS: We won’t be doing Blu-rays for this series due to time constraints and so on, but if anybody wants to use our scripts to do their own, feel free to do so.

Sorry this comes kind of late, guys. A bunch of shit happened during QC which resulted in a lot of my time being wasted. At any rate, here you go.
In this episode, Alice talks biochemistry and genetics, and even scalar and vector quantities. We also get poppies and drugs and angel wings and stuff.

Inch by inch, the plot advances.  Buckets of positivity this ep, by the way.
[spoiler show=”Semi-spoiler”]So, I have two important character route foreshadow screencaps in mind.  One is displayed above.  This one was as obvious as a jawbreaker in a bag of jellybeans (yes, I just made up that expression now) but the other wasn’t.  Did you spot it?Disclaimer: It’s quite possible there are other story-related moments that I’m not including.  If there were, I didn’t care enough about whichever character was involved to consider them.  You should have enough information to know who the other screencap moment is about.[/spoiler]
We apologize to fans of Daiz’ Track Two of Non-Terms-of-Addressedness, but there will be only one track (with terms of address) with the release.  When Daiz wakes up, he may or may not decide to amend it with another track, but we weren’t going to delay releasing for that.
arEdit: I’ve added patches for v2’s of both releases which add the second subtitle track without honorifics.

Fractale BD – Batch

AHEM. This is Moshiburner speaking. I found no other post to jack so screw it, I’m using this one.
Yes, I’m delaying stuff. Yes, it’s mostly back-burner stuff (no pun with moshiburner) since Raze and the crew (esp. fnord and ar) know that oh-my-GOD-THAT-GUY-IS-NEVER-ON-ANYMORE. Stuff like TLCing about…10 lines…in Fractale 9 BD. Damn I’m awesome. No sorry please don’t kill me I FIXED SOMETHING, REALLY I DID! THAT ONE VOFELY LINE (I’m talking to you kittengrinder. Yes, I went back and looked up your username.) BEING PORPHYRY. YUP. FIXED. You better thank me for that, anime-loving geologists, because honestly I know nothing about igneous rocks. Or what the word igneous means. Hell, I don’t even know if porphyry is igneous to begin with.
Right, so my point is…wait. I forgot. Ugh.
Screw it. Take it away ar!
Oh, and I decided to move this part to the top since I can and you won’t see it on the front page otherwise. <3 Check out the rest of the post to figure out what else I'm not doing on-time.
~
Hear ye, Hear ye, I come forth to bring you a random BD batch jam-packed with Nessa-goodness.
Let's see where to start. I was kinda lazy at first to do a BD release for Fractale but Xack offered to do the encoding and since it was only a 4 month turnaround for the complete series to be released on Blu-ray, I thought what the hell let's do it.
There won't be a 1080p or a XviD release, the 720p is the only version we decided to do since there was very little visual difference between 1080p and 720p (and I was lazy~). So consider this purely as an archive version if you liked the series. At 720p Fractale looks quite nice anyhow, thus your viewing experience won't be tainted!
I would like to thank Xack for taking the time to encode the series for us (thanks champ~) and to Moshi for stalling this BD batch for at least 2 months (<3 ya mate!)! There are really no changes from the TV batch except for Episode 9 where some new dialogue appeared in the wild, and consistency fixes for OP/EDs along with some updating to official lyrics.
arEdit: Doh. Looks like I forgot to align the ED Kanji correctly for Ep6-8 after changing them to vertical. This is what happens when I have no QC on my BD projects~ www. Here’s a quick fix for you guys anyway. Grab the patches and apply them with the .bats or (.sh for *nix/osx, also remember to chmod +x them and have xdelta3 on the system).
Status of other stuff:
Ano Hana TV Batch – Needs TLC reports applied, eta. when Moshi has free time (tl;dr could be a week or a month or 3, moshi is busy living the life~).
Gosick BDs – I’ve already told you people there won’t be monthly releases. Releases will be every 2-3 months. ETA to next release 3-4 weeks. (tl;dr when __ar has time)
Index II BDs – Last volume of the Blu-ray comes out this month, I have encoded up to episode 21 (current as of last month) and the staff member in question claims progress has been made, we have our doubts (www). ETA. when Index III airs or kusion hires a editor/qc who isn’t as god slow as he is or he actually works on it on a regular basis.

And we’re caught up! Thanks for your patience. We’ll see some new faces, some old faces, and have an all-around good time with a couple of great songs (J’s song not included).
Gonna preempt comments on Takane’s first few scenes: lol. Keep the comments PG-13, please. We promote viewing as a family, after all.
Daiz note: I have to say that typesetting this episode was much more pleasing when I had some additional helping hands to work with. Thanks, __ar and Bob64.

Part 2 of Catch-Up Theater!
The twins don’t get very much love.  Not even an insert song.  Haruka, however, was cute for the very first time ever (imho).  Time to petition A-1 for more pudding ghosts.
Ep10 is the Super Back to the Return of I Know What You Did Last Typesetting Hell 3 Turbo, but we’ll have it out as soon as we can.
