This is an extended, 30-second version of the next episode preview for episode 4. The narration is entirely different. These extended previews are posted on the official website every Tuesday before the next episode airs. We’ll be doing them from now on. Next week it should be finished quicker.

Really? Posts for a 30 sec preview?
Okay then, how else do you propose that they let us know they have released something? Only a certain amount of people go on IRC; so what’s the point in doing a release, albeit smaller than average, and not letting people know about it?
Thats easy, you could ask Ixlone, Holo, Zdm, or any of the staff nicely on the chatbox if they’re around.
I think it’s very safe to say that 95% of people that torrent/ddl from Doki don’t bother with the chatbox. Despite visiting Doki at least 10 times a day, I never have bothered with the chatbox.
I just check out the front page and see if anything has been released. If something has been released; I duly give Doki a thumbs up for their hard work and devotion to their projects.
Fair enough.
I don’t use the Cbox much either myself but the Doki staff and about 10 other random people do. It has a small but friendly community on it, if IRC isnt your thing 😛
By the way, sign up to the forums. Needs more members. Which is hypocritical as Im not on it yet lol
Thanks!
Agree with Ixlone though. And 1MB difference 480p? Not worth the effort IMO. But thanks nevertheless.
oh~
and you’re doing the 1-3 too?
We’ll probably go back and do them.
For all the naysayers, the alternate previews tend to give some interesting looks into the characters’ thought processes.
Nice, an unexpected surprise 🙂 Thanks!
where’s the 10-bit?
so much for 1 episode of SnQ per weekday, yet another delay by doki
I know right? How dare doki provide you with a free service that they do as a hobby.
Clearly you are mistreated so badly.
you feel the same way as me, good
Yay! Now I have something anime related to look forward to on Wednesday!! Thanks soo much!!!
wait…. so is the episode 4 release with this 30 second preview? or is it a standalone type of deal?
I think this is a waste of time and effort. If you have them and don’t mind who’s me to question it.
Thank you so much! I was surprised at how much I liked this episode, with it being about Chihaya and all. Although, I wished they would have gone with her “About Love” rather than “Blue Bird” for the ending. But beggars can’t be choosy.
Thanks again!
