I just finished episode 4 and am looking forward to the rest of the series. I am enjoying the series a lot especially the animation quality, more specifically, the colors. Hopefully, they will reveal more details about the other characters in the later episodes.
I noticed a few more grammatical issues in the subtitles. However, they are all in episode 4, to my knowledge. Episode 4 6:25 to 6:30 One of Kirino's friends: When you on the phone, you sound really angry and yet happy at the same time. Did you mean to say: When you are on the phone, you sound really angry and yet happy at the same time. ? Episode 4 14:09 to 14:14 Kirino: Why do I have to come out to a place like this this early in the morning? Did you mean to say: Why do I have to come out to a place like Episode 4 21:53 to 21:57 Saori: 'Tis true that comiket doth hold its painful hardships... Did you mean to say: 'Tis true that Comiket doth hold its painful hardships... ? It is a minor error but Comiket should still be capitalized. |

There are always exceptions, hence my use of "usually", but one stand-out example is hardly considered normal.
But it still doesn't mean brother, nor is it endearing. A term of endearment isn't the same as a nickname or slang.
It wasn't just me, maybe you didn't see the others.
The original is correct. The first this refers to the location, "place like this" while the second this refers to the time, "this early in the morning?" It may look funny, but it sounds even funnier without a second this, you expect something else to be there before the "early". Maybe "so" would have been better? Emerje |

You make a good there, Emerje. I did not realize how silly it would sound. A comma would also suffice. One thing I learned is that commas can make a big difference. Kirino: Why do I have to come out to a place like this, (comma) this early in the morning? |

Thanks for the grammar corrections, they have been made.
As for the various choices made, people need to realize that translation is not a science, but an art. We've made decisions in regards to the presentation, the licensor approved them. You can disagree with them personally however you want, but unless there's something outright wrong about them, or they're functionally defective in some way (I don't think anyone has actually had a problem understanding what's being said, no?) then it's really nothing more than nit-picking how someone else did their job. I realize that's what fans DO in this day and age, but come on, 5 pages of arguing how to translate onii-chan? |

I don't normally pay attention to the mistakes if they're not obvious. I think the subtitling is going excellently.

Where are episodes 5 and 6, they were due up by now? Normally I'm not in a rush, but I was hoping to watch them before heading for work. Does the 1:58pm start time only apply to episode 7 on?

I was wondering the same. It explicitly mentioned the 1:58 start for episodes 5 and 6 in the press release. |

The press release was off by a half hour. They're up now.

It's nice to see ANN using their NEWS box as an advertisement platform for their shows. Way to keep your entertainment and news sections seperate.

What news box? The marquee? I thought that was just for what was new to the site. |

It is news that The Anime Network, Crunchyroll, Funimation, Viz, Netflix and ANN (notice how it's last) added new streaming content. In case you haven't noticed, free, legal, streaming anime is kind of a big deal in North America.
Also, just in case you're complaining about how OreImo and ToGanu are mentioned, notice it's ALL the content ANN added, not just those two shows, which they just happen to have the rights to. I actually think it'd be more unprofessional not to include them with the other shows. |

When was the last time a Crunchroll show got featured in the box? |

The news is all there right under the marquee. I don't like it much because it takes up space. However, I think its ultimately good because it makes the front page look a lot nicer to occasional or new visitors compared to a wall of headlines. |
