Surprise!
I said I was going to do Air a long time ago, because I love this show. It was one of the very first anime I watched, and nothing beat it until Clannad After Story came along. Many a tear was shed.
I didn’t plan on releasing Air yet, but it was a spur of the moment thing. So here’s a little something to keep you occupied until Thursday! I don’t plan on releasing any more Air until I finish Clannad.
Video: 1280×720 h264. Encoded by [B-G], so all credit for the video goes to them! They did a very good job of fixing up a very poor upscale.
Audio: FLAC. I downloaded the BDISOs and extracted and converted the audio for this release. [B-G] included a DTS track, but I don’t like lossy codecs. Also DTS sucks.
Subtitles: Modified DVD subs.
Karaoke: Softsubbed.
Credits: Encoding: [B-G], Karaoke: Jecht, everything else: Holo.
720p (h264): [Doki] Air – 01 (1280×720 h264 BD FLAC) [4297E7A6].mkv
@Halo Guy: Yeah! i hope so ..
yeah! thanks.
I really hope you are the ones to finish this release, since BG didn’t manage to finish it.
Holo, since there seem to be people dedicated enough to transcribe koi’s (excellent) subs, will you be using those from now on?
Yes, I will use Koi’s subs since people are willing to transcribe. I will patch 01 into v2 with Koi’s subs.
So, which Koi episodes have been transcribed so far before I make a start?
just start with episode 2, and we’ll continue from there 🙂
Soukyuu said he’s doing 3+4 so maybe you should do 5
I started on six.
Episode six done, now onto episode seven.

Wow, awesome! Would love to have a version with AC3 or DTS though, since those play nicely with my home theater setups. ^.^;;
@Asian Ed…..leecher can’t read, huh…….=_=”….read the announcement…..
but hey, did you mentioned AC3? …….lol
@Asian Ed:
The reason for why DTS isn’t used was already specified. There’s a link for “DTS sucks” if you didn’t notice. And if you’re lazy, here are the reasons:
* It is a lossy codec
* It uses constant bitrate at 1509.75 kbit/s (at least on blurays)
* It is so hilariously inefficient that FLAC (a lossless codec) usually manages to compress better than it, even with 6 channels of movie audio.
And AC3, most people seemed to establish AAC as better than AC3… But not that I really care about audio formats. I’m just REstating other people’s reasoning.
Yes, DTS (and AC3) plays on your home theatre… But I don’t think they’re gonna change their mind now. You could wait for BG(since he did DTS) to see if he ever finishes, but there was some kinda delay in his TLC I think.
Unless you’re requesting for another encode/version of the same thing…
Awesome show!! i hope this gets done quickly im kinda hooked on it!! once again the quality is superb! you guys rock!! ^_^ this episode made my day! im happy now lmao
Thanks Doki, I’m glad i found these Key anime’s and they your doing them. There really good. But i also have the same issues as myztichydra, but I’m running a mac mini w/ boxee. (Say what ya will but it makes a good setup w/ my tv) Any one have suggestions?
since u guys r doing the Key animes, try to release Angel Beats BDs too. XD
@Halo Guy:
Well if you didn’t know, they originally were going to translate it(or Chihiro? since it was a joint) but then one or the other backed off for some reason I forget, though there could still be interest in doing the BDs using other group’s translations.
i would appreciate an xvid release very much.
i will seed clannad and kanon xvids for at least a couple of months.
Wow! This was the very first anime that I had ever watched. I cried tears at the ending. I’m glad to see you do a very good series.
Does the recap also need transcribing?
And what about Air in Summer? (I have Traid’s for that.)
seriously dudes finish what you started before going on to these crappy side projects
@liddokun….you are one that crappy, guy….
AIR is masterpiece…you are just a shitty leecher……-_-p
Recap does not need transcribing, I don’t think that was in the BDs.
Air in Summer does though.
Right, so on my end, it’s just 12 and AiS to do.
Oh, and episode five. (Unless Soukyuu is doing that one …)
Wow that was fast.
Jigsy, you were too fast lol
I’m still at ep3&4, won’t have time today, sorry.
If someone has the time, don’t wait for me and finish it. Just post it so that no one wastes time. And I didn’t touch 5.
