With Clannad finished, my next Blu-Ray project is Air. I will release episodes when I am free. This may be irregular. I should be able to complete this before going on holiday (again) to Japan in early September.
So, here is the promised v2 with [Koi]’s script.
Below is a reminder of the details.
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: [Koi]’s subs. Transcribed by hand by Jigsy, Soukyuu and Invisiblemoose, thanks guys!
Karaoke: Softsubbed.
Credits: Encoding: [B-G], Karaoke: Jecht, everything else: Holo.
720p (h264): [Doki] Air – 01v2 (1280×720 h264 BD FLAC) [E13ADA79].mkv
480p (XviD): [Doki] Air – 01 (848×480 XviD BD MP3) [C5722E04].avi

YES!! This is easily one of my favourite animes ever, and I’ve been holding off on downloading them for your BDs 😀 thanks for the release!
YAY!! im looking forward to watching this. ive never seen it until doki release the first episode and i loved it. im patiently waiting for these releases from this group. thanks for the releases and the hard work!
Will you also be doing a 480p version? (I can’t bring myself to waste 660MB per ep for 720p)
hmmm…
I will make a 480p XviD as usual.
Thank you for the AVI.
Will you also do the 13th recap episode and Air in Summer ?
The recap is not in the BD but AiS is, so yes to AiS but no to the recap.
Awwwwww I don’t get credit for transcribing the first ep… :c
Irregardless, I’m so excited to see you start up on Air! Thanks so much! 😀
I’ve been so looking forward to this. Thanks Doki!!
Koi…..Koi…..nice translation….and nice work as usual….^^b
OH man I’ve been wanting to see this in HD for so long. Thank you SO much.
THNX! I’ve been waiting too long for this. 😀
Woohoo! Really really excited for this, thanks a bunch.
Getting Air is quite nice. Getting waste-of-space FLAC isn’t.
Just a note, the OP doesn’t have koi’s translation.
Want me to transcribe the koi op or just keep the translation you have?
I know, I mixed up a bit of Koi’s and Triad’s translations because some bits of Koi’s OP sounded weird imo.
I’ll be using my own mixed version.
This episode isn’t strictly Koi anyhow, there are a few slightly altered lines and grammar corrections… one line I changed quite a bit was “Even if I could see the strings, I’d like it better if it were more interesting.” Both Koi and Triad’s line there was awkward.
I know you changed things as well, like my Old Lady to ma’am. (Koi had ‘missus’)…
Also I changed naming convention, which you kept. ^_^
…heh… I remember I transcribed this episode after going more than 3 days without sleep… went so carefully, to make sure everything was right, took me hours…
…can’t really complain about not being mentioned in your acknowledgments because I did so little work compared to Jigsy and Soukyuu… but still… 😛
Lol added, I forgot last night. Yea, edits have been made to the script. I converted from American to British English too. Seeing “Mommy” was just too weird for me lol.
Timing Ep 2 now, expect release soon.
It’s freaking 2010, 2TB HDDs are under 100 bucks, and this is an archive-quality release! FLAC isn’t a waste of space, it’s very efficient! If you want lossy audio that badly, convert and re-mux it yourself, it’s not difficult… I don’t want to hear any more complaints about the size…
yes! yes! i love u guys. nothing beats it than being a melodramatic key fag
What episodes will you release?
1-12 (without 13, which is a recap episode)
1-13 (without the 2 ‘summer special chapter’ episodes)
1-12 + 14&15 (episodes 1-12 and the specials, but without the recap episode)
1-15 (all of them!)
1-12 + 14&15 (episodes 1-12 and the specials, but without the recap episode)
Recap was not included in the BD.
Thanks for doing Air HD. Btw, audio volume is pretty low.
