I believe North and South Korea should watch Motto ToLOVERu. It works far better than nuclear disarmanent talks and diplomacy.
Anyway, I heard that Monokage had rose from the dead. I feel kind of encouraged to stop Bungaku Shoujo, but for the sake of completion I will attempt to complete this project. I think the third OVA to be released on Christmas Eve is worth waiting for. Hopefully we will be able to bring out 01 before then.
As for next season, I can no longer translate because I have to enlist for National Service in my country. So it’s really a pity, especially since I am looking forward to subbing something after my exams. But at times like this, it can’t be helped.
I personally think Winter is one of the most barren line ups of all. Kimi ni Todoke is probably one of the few good ones out there. As gg have pointed out, I do agree that original animes are better. My reasons are mainly because they will usually be more conclusive. Anime based off manga and light novels are restricted on the content they can animate. They have to ensure the anime will not become faster than the manga/light novels and so they add in fillers which are inconclusive. Of all my years in watching such anime, it should be noted that they tend to use it as a publicity tool to promote the ongoing manga or light novels. However, if I were to rank the latter two, anime adapted from light novels are generally better than manga, but there are always exceptions. So this makes IS rather worthy to be popular. Dragon Crisis did catch my eye as well.
On a closing note, inspite of all the drama surrounding, the staffs at Doki remain dedicated to bringing you fansubbed anime on a consistent basis weekly.
EDIT: Almost forgot to include. Shuffle! is finally getting BDs next January, i.e. January 28, 2011. Shuffle! is surely a series that deserves Blu-ray attention.

All the best on serving your country. Although I don’t agree with anime only ending/orginal adaptation is better. certainly didn’t experience from the 15 years of watching anime for sure. somehow I can never agree with gg.
Anyways, thanks for all the effort. Come back when you have fulfilled your responsibility towards your country. 🙂
Winter really does look pretty bland, with the exception of Hourou Musuko and possibly Fractale, which being noitaminA shows, will probably get simulcasted in the US with subtitles.
That, and being noitaminA shows, they’d be a bitch to translate (especially Hourou Musuko).
I hope doki will do the BD of Shuffle! I hope you go back to fansubbing after you serve for your country…
When we get our backlog finished first?
It looks like our backlog is being released like dial-up speed. Hopefully we can get it out faster in time for shuffle! BD’s.
Oh! Its ok! Take your time guys! January is still a long time of sorts… And thanks in advance for taking it up (Shuffle!).
What subs’re gonna be used?
*loads up notepad just incase…* :>
Good luck with serving your country!
Now that is a bit of good news about “Shuffle!” Roll on January. Seeing it in higher definition(?) would be a treat. Thanks all!
What country are u serving?
That’s really for me to know, and for you to find out. But a look at the “staff” section does reveal something extra 🙂
hope that u will success in ur national service 😉
Shuffle: I hope they fix the epilogue of the last episode for the BD release b/c that part looked horrendous :(((
@ZeroYuuki:Isn’t there a way to get out of it?
Or do you want too?
A positive out come from it would be some training so when you come back you can kick some of the haters butts XD (unless you’ve already trained in martial arts or shoot guns.)
It’s compulsory for us, I never really thought about evading it. It’s apparently illegal to do so unless you’re accessed to be either losing a limp, hand, your sight or hearing or if you are mentally unstable.
But as our country is small, I think losing a limp still entitles you to work office jobs in the army. Hearing; you still have your eyes.
And losing a limb just to avoid that 2 years? That is plain stupid, and I do mean that since I did have a section mate who did that to himself(use the wooden handle of a army spade and broke his arm) and now he suffers in real live after he finish his 2 years of army life. Mind you, he got posted to driver and repost to a storeman later during his 2 years.
We’ll miss you ZeroYuki!
When are you guy gonna continue on Ore no Imouto?
just wait k thx
Good luck in there ZeroYuki. I’m from the same country as you and I have to go in next year too (Going to Police though). All the best!
WOW! Conscription is still around? Dam! Be safe and remember to go with your guts. Human instinct beats logic on the battle field (or so I think).
ZeroYuki, survive that BMT training, and you will feel like a new man once it’s over. Good luck!
By the way, found the Gigson album which you mention quite a while ago. Here’s the link, credits to JPz Records.
