Doki’s 7th movie.
A deep show about stuff. You might find it boring, you might not. I found it interesting.
Also, expect a mass release tomorrow. Most shows will be caught up.
ZeroYuki: Site went down just as this movie was released. Lady luck has never been with me despite all these years of fansub contribution.
Anyway, after a rather lengthy fansubbing hiatus, i’m happy to present you “Colorful“. It’s a movie centred on cherishing life. The Animation production is done by a company called “Asention” relatively unheard of. While the animation style isn’t as impressive as Bungaku Shoujo, it’s beautiful in a different way. Carrying an anti-suicide message, the plot begins with a person in hell given a second chance in life after winning a random “lottery”. He’s set to undergo a trial to be placed inside a person called Makoto for a given period of time under survelliance of an apparition. During this time, he is expected to find out his greatest sin in his past life and whether he is worthy of getting a rebirth.
On another note, please refrain from making random comments like asking for the script as it is stupid and shows that you have no brains, with no knowledge of how to use mkvextract. Those complaining about the file size should also shut up because if you want to watch a BD encode, expect the size to be big, otherwise don’t watch it at all. I understand that foreign groups love to ask for scripts, my answer to you is to download the video yourself and at least contribute to the download count before you want something from us. That’s basic courtesy.

1080 DDL now up.
Thanks for the release, but…
Is it just me, or is the 1080 really quiet? Got the volume up full (don’t want to turn the speakers up, want to keep my earring when a notification comes through) and can barely hear the voices. Sound effects are pretty much non-existant.
All your other files are fine – downloaded most of this weeks releases. As it is, this is annoying in the same way that adverts are always too loud – except this is too quiet.
Other than that, this looks really nice (recognise the character design, but can’t remember from where.)
It’s 2 in the morning, so I’ll continue watching when I wake up.
JBV^_^
Looks like a problem when using mpc-hc64 as the sound is fine in VLC.
Played around with some of the setting and got some improvement (80% sound fine.)
Think it might be that Colourful is 6 channel. Have to submit a bug report. Again.
JBV^_^
just downscale its audio to 2.0 in ffdshow
I thought this was the ecchi Colorful. LOL!
About the whole scripts drama – I understand most of your concern, but that argument “at least contribute to the download count” – why even bother about download count?
The download count is the only way of acknowledging the work has been seen since it is the only statistical way to actually know it. If u download it via fs, it helps contribute some money to helping pay the servers.
I have to ask…16 files?! I think I’m going to faint now! Good lord! I’m going to have to wait until tomorrow morning at 8am to download this movie!
All: That was TERRIFIC. Thanks for the hard work on that – that was a two hour movie with stellar animation, a rather sophisticated plot and suitable music. Bravo!
Thank you very much for the release. =)
Finally got around to watching this. Very good. Glad you decided to translate this! Thank you.
If you do a v2, in addition to some grammatical things here or there, there was one thing which jumped out at me: towards the end when the nerdy girl mentions 星の王子様, you translated this literally as “The Star Prince”, but it’s actually the Japanese title of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s famous book Le Petit Prince.
English: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Little_Prince
Japanese: http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%98%9F%E3%81%AE%E7%8E%8B%E5%AD%90%E3%81%95%E3%81%BE
Might want to therefore consider changing it to either “The Little Prince” (English) or else “Le Petit Prince” (international title) as that’s what most English-speaking viewers are going to know it as.
I doubt there would be a v2. Thanks for pointing out though, I have read the Little Prince when I was younger too. But I never realised Hoshi no Ouji-sama is actually the Little Prince in Japanese. I guess that’s what happens when you just slack off a little and not double confirm by googling.
In any case, no v2 because there isn’t a huge demand for it. Secondly, the show is not popular enough and people don’t really take care about it. Thirdly, I don’t call the shots.
Perhaps you might want to wait for some other quality groups who may have planned but have yet to release.
Hey holo or anyone who can answer my question…whoever encoded the audio, how did you keep a 6 channel FLAC and go to AAC with 6 channels…that’s the one problem I’m having, I can’t convert any FLAC audio tracks with 6 channels to any other format without getting some kind of error…thank you in advance 😀
Get Megui.
Thanks Holo (:
I’m coming far after the party here, but thanks for subbing this, guys. It’s a fantastic, fantastic movie. It’s a real shame that it’s not popular and thus probably won’t make its way to Europe or North America in any salable form, despite a screening in Britain. Thanks again, though.
Pls reseed this :3
If I click on XDCC for the 1080p version, it says no packs found. I got the XDCC list from the bot that did have it and it too does not show the 1080p version.
thank u so much!!!
Thanks for the release guys!
Can I request some reseed for the 1080p version, please?
Thanks again!
