Recruiting a Japanese Translator
Firstly, I am looking for a translator to replace someone who has disappeared. Due to CR picking up so many damn shows again next season, I have had to change my plans considerably, and I have some potential shows that I would like to do, but I need a translator. Previous experience in fansubbing not required, but proficiency at Japanese required. If you’re interested, please email me at holo@doki.co.
General
As you might have noticed, I have enlarged the blog layout to fit two more sidebars in, as I want space to fit in status updates. As such, I will need some new banners; the current Zombie banner is temporary. I will start up another banner competition in the coming days. There are some old banners that I really love, and if the makers rendered them in the new resolution (1240×250), they will accepted straightaway. More on that later.
Spring 2011 Shows
- Nichijou
- Seikon no Qwaser II
I will only confirm two spring shows at the moment. However, this is only a fraction of the shows that we will release. The other shows are nearly finalized, but I want to confirm schedules before announcing.
Blu-Ray
- Seto no Hanayome – Will be finished by the end of next week.
- Seikon no Qwaser – Will do my best to complete this before the release of the first episode of Season 2. The picture dramas have actually all been translated now, and I will release a batch of this in the coming week.
- Haruhi – Confident that it will be complete before the release of Clannad ~After Story~
- MTLR – Vol 5 will be out in about 2 weeks.
- SYD – Nana has not had as much progress as he would have liked in TLing this, so this might be delayed past April. But hey, at least KxS, Neko and BGHK got done.
- Shows not mentioned are not priority at this point, but will be done, so don’t worry.
Airing Shows
- Zombie – Double release of 11 and 12 this week. I expect to release 11 on Monday night and 12 on either Tuesday or Wednesday.
Jecht’s Shows
- Asobi – The release of the last volume and the batches is imminent.
- Saki – Steady progress.
Zdm’s Shows
- Haruhi-chan – 7-12 will be out soon.
Enjoy our upcoming releases!

Doki ftw!
I know its a tall order on TL-ing SYD due to the terms they use and got to put it for reference so viewers can get along with the anime… take your time guys… can wait for those so it will have the best quality release… Even it is 2-3 seasons ago…
*Seto no Hanayome – Will be finished by the end of next week.
*Haruhi – Confident that it will be complete before the release of Clannad ~After Story~
Yes!
i really hope one f my favourite groups liek you will also pick up denpa onna to seishun otoko.. and some others.. maybe ..you? xD
We might, or we might not. That’s the only clue I’ll tell you. ^_-
Only time can tell.
another series you might do could be astarotte ni omocha, woudlnt it?
also, as a kind-of nanoha (maybe) spinoff, might you guys do dog days?
@Holo: Will you do Clannad ~After Story~ in 10-bit depth H.264?
At this point, the main limiting factor in using 10 bit h.264 is the lack of a free software decoder.
What would be the point? It’s just going to be another silly upscale.
That’s a shame, you’d think Kyoani would animate stuff in HD more, anyway has it been confirmed to be an upscale? Or is it more going by their recent stuff?
Given that Lucky Star, Haruhi and Clannad were all upscales, I’d say it is highly likely.
If I’m proven wrong though, so much the better.
Thank you for the update Holo. It is a shame that CR is picking up so many shows…I want my quality fansub!
Yeah, but that won’t really stop a fansub group if they really want to do it. I know it’s not gonna stop me. Just long as it’s not oversubbed to hell and back.
Seems like you all got your work cut out for ya. Well, just do what you usually do. I’m sure everyone here appreciates what you’re doing so far (unless they’re inconsiderate pricks).
I’m curious; will you all be tackling the new Higurashi Kira OVAs?
There are new Higurashi OVAs? Why wasn’t I told?!
Source?
Nevermind. Found them myself.
So….this a yes? :3
This is an “I want to do them (personally), but we’ll see what happens.”
Oooh, nice! Didn’t know there were new Higurashi OVA’s to come! Thanks for the info! ^^
I hope Doki does new Higurashi too, would gladly wait for Doki encodes if I knew it was being done.
Yeah, we are doing new higurashi
oh, and since the title picture suggests it, will you do hidan no aria?
That’s for us to know and you to find out (when the new season starts.)
Shakugan no Shana III (Autumn 2011?)
We’re doing this, no matter what.
=============================>
Shana = Rie Kugimiya
Is it a clue? 😛
i love you guys.
love you guys at Doki, wish i knew japanese to help you guys out =( anyway thanks for the releases
“*Shows not mentioned are not priority at this point, but will be done, so don’t worry.”
Aw, does that mean “Shuffle!” isn’t a priority? That’s too bad.
This.
Really sucks that SHUFFLE isn’t prioritized…That, Haruhi, Lucky Star, and Clannad After Story are the ones I want the most…
Shuffles just an upscale anyway, if I remember right, Holo put a lot of effort to make the Blu Ray eps better than the source material. I kinda agree that new shows/better shows should get priority..
Alright, fair argument I guess…
hope Seikon no Qwaser II would be in XviD… consistency you see….
I don’t think so.
But … CR is gonna do Nichijou, right?
Yes, but the team working on it really wants to do it, so it’s an exception.

^ there you go bigger version of the haruhi one
if i feel inspired i’ll maybe make some new one’s later 😉
Tuga! 😛
hey, where’s BD Kore wa Zombie desu ka Vol1? 🙁
Lolololol 😛
Trolololol
Awww.. So Ore no Imouto BDs are on the backlog I take it. Damn, was looking forward to those the most. Anyways, keep up the good work guys.
Have some patience (:
It will be done.
Yeah, It’s gonna be worth the wait!
There are plenty of other great shows to keep me busy anyways so I think I will survive 😀
Will you be doing the Shukufuku no Campanella OVA?
I always complete my projects.
Thanks not bailing this season. It seems like legit groups are starting to crack even if their reasoning is valid. Just nice to see the Doki staff still going strong and dare I say enthusiastic about the new season. Much appreciated guys.
