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.

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.

English subs from the leaked Singapore (?) DVD was horrible, so I decided to sub this myself. It’s about 50% completely re-translated, 25% tweaked, and 25% untouched.
It’s been over 2 years since my last Japanese movie release, and the live-action adaptation of Ashita no Joe manga marks my comeback.
This movie was directed by Souri Fumihiko, who also directed the masterpiece sports film Ping Pong (2002) and Zatoichi remake Ichi (2008). Animated feature Vexille (2007) too, but that movie sucked, so I’ll pretend it never happened.
Special thanks to my long-time film editor Brains (eye), Kusion, __ar, and fnord for helping out with with this release.

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.
Happy Birthday __ar!
From left to right: Daiz, Kusion, Eightsin, __ar, commander`A, Raze.
I believe this is my first post here. And to think I’m popping my cherry to blog about __ar’s age… Le sigh. Anyway, I’d like to wish __ar a happy birthday from me and on behalf of the entire UTW staff. No, just kidding. No one from the staff even knows about his birthday nor they care about it. Raze is probably out drooling over chicks. Kusion must be busy scheming something new. fnord, well… Uh, fnord is being fnord. Eightsin is most likely busy watching Chinese cartoons (yes, sarcasm here. I mean Japanese shitty cartoons). Daiz is sitting in a corner thinking about ways to kill himself after doing all those signs in IM@S. Zir0h and Bob69 are trying to act cool as usual (but I still love Zir0h-chan <3). So there we have it, no one cares about him but me.
About __ar, the old man's stepping into his early 30's, which means we – the staff – will be even more annoyed by his blogging and you, my dear leechers, will get slower releases. Yes, all these slow releases are produced courtesy of __ar. He wants everything to be perfect. We'd spent HOURS encoding an episode while it could be easily done within an hour. But no, he needs to have everything 101% perfectly. He'd spend hours doing useless signs that no one would even bother reading just because it was in the script. I wonder what he does in bed…? "Hey baby, put your dick inside me already… I can't take it anymore! I WANT YOU INSIDE ME IMA SUGU!" "Yo hold ya horses homie, imma calculate the coordinates of interaction for our intercourse so we could have a perrrrrrfect one!" *after 2 hours* "Seriously…?" "Almost there!"
Anyway, jokes aside, __ar is like the old man of this group. He does everything that no one else bothers to do. Like I had some :issues: yesterday and couldn't work on Kamimemosomething, so he had to jump into the scene to save the day by doing my work too. Like a wise man once said: "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players: they have their exits and their entrances; and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages." Though I still won't wish you a honest happy birthday unless you show me a pic of yourself or talk to me on Skype. I mean, you've seen and heard me a thousand times but you still won't show me any pics or talk to me, which is totally unfair.
With that being said, I shall end my blogging here. Happy birthday big guy <3.

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.

Welp, I resisted for as long as I could, but we finally updated the OP to the official lyrics. It is with great sadness that we have replaced “I’m ready!” with “I’m lady!”, along with some minor adjustments. My sincerest apologies to all for subjecting you to this.
I’m not sorry in the least, however, for this episode full of Azusa-and-Miki-in-wedding-dress, Makoto-in-tuxedo goodness. The ep is a clusterfuck of wth, but never has wth looked so good while telling fortunes or been so utterly lost while helping grandmothers cross the street.
Yes, feel free to cry for us once you count up the number of insert songs and anime-originals. We accept tears, blood, cash donations, and cookies. Warm cookies, though. None of that cold shit, please.
Quick note re: that guy I’m sure you’re all going to wonder about. He is never, ever introduced by name. Unless that is his name. Since he is referred to by the same name both in print and in person, we decided that his status passes for his name. After all, Azusa’s (and in several instances, the other idols’) friend Tomomi’s name is written as 友美, so why can’t other people be referred to by their roles?! The characters in Tomomi’s name are, literally, “friend” and “beauty,” a very common element in a girl’s name, used in this case to stress the name’s generic aspect. The name Tomomi, however, is a perfectly common name, though usually written with different kanji.
Finally, since I personally didn’t know about this: The ED, Hanikami! First Bite is a reference to the traditional first bites of the wedding cake taken by the bride and groom at the reception, fed to one another.
Post-incredibly-long delay notes: Psy here. Regardless of circumstances, we’ve made you wait a very, very long time for these episodes. m(_ _)m Gomennasai. We’ll most likely have everything released by some time tomorrow. Enjoy the eps, and once again, our apologies for the delays.

So this makes another episode down, only one more until Volume 1 is finished (finally!), then it’ll be onto Volume 2. Since I blogged all I had to blog yesterday I’ve got nothing much extra to add.
We now bring you today’s feature presentation.

So this series was infinitely stalled due to Moshi’s new life taking priority over subbing cartoons, but he is slowly making progress with the translations. We’ve got up to episode 3 translated so far so once 2 & 3 are qc’d/edited we’ll go ahead and release those too.
We’ve changed a bunch of names to reflect the Archives booklets that came with the Blu-rays, so what you have now can be considered pretty much official, except for “Dunan Nut”, we don’t like that (lol) so we’ll stick to using Deunan Knute.
The audio for both the 720p and 1080p comes from the DTS-HD MA 5.1 track so I just threw FLAC at both. There’s a ton of grain/action in episodes 1-3 so deal with the size. The size falls with episodes 4 & 5 to more reasonable sizes.
Here’s a few words from our sponsors.
kusion: wtf is appleseed <- le sigh
commander`A: American Movies > Chinese cartoons <- he can't be saved!
Also, huge thanks to Tek for helping making this release possible!
