At least NISA is starting to follow-up with standard edition releases using regular DVD cases (and a lower MSRP). Hopefully, they'll keep doing this for future releases. Everybody wins.

What is the problem with gg's sub of Enma-kun? All I can find is some nitpicks about commas, hyphens, Engrish-to-English issues, some clunky translation choices. So can someone kindly point me in the direction of an actual thread, blog, or conversation where these major issues are brought up. Not just hearsay.

you guys serious? enma-kun was a riot.
definitely the most daring anime ever, not even meant for your average anime folk but damn it was good... anime enthusiasts like me will definitely get this. there's no way a go nagai series get licensed and i do not pick it up. |

Newbies to Go Nagai don't seem to get that his material is generally that sophomoric. Nothing wrong with it, but if you come in expecting Harry Potter with yokai, you will be disappointed.

It just finished airing, or will be shortly, so NISA likely has to wait till it all gets released in Japan before they can release it or maybe even work on it depending on how the materials are handled. |

No, they're known for occasionally slipping in minor things that they know will enrage /a/, and they feed off the ensuing butthurt. Seriously, when you can consistently make people angry over something so minor, so insignificant, how can you stop? In any case, gg has a bunch of different translators, and the one who did Enma also did the Break Blade movies from like 3 onward. And I don't recall anyone bitching about those having LOLITROLLYOU subs, whatsoever. |

There's nothing wrong, per say; they're hilarious. But I would describe them as "If Stephen Foster did subs", and a lot of people like faithfulness no matter how good the results are. |

If Stephen Foster did subs then faithfulness would be out of the question. The subs are outrageous because the Japanese dialogue is outrageous. So where is problem exactly with the subs, other than not being official?

Why are you being such a prick (other than it being your shtick)? You asked a question, I gave you an answer. It's been brought up several times in the thread already that the subs are very loose and embellished with the translator's own touch thrown in, i.e. not exactly what the Japanese dialogue is saying. The End. I don't see the confusion here. If my answers aren't good enough for you then go download some of the episodes yourself and stop acting like you know what you're talking about. If you did, then you wouldn't be asking questions and you'd know exactly what I, the person who has seen the show, was talking about. |

My question was for a link to an actual discussion that talks about where the subs went wrong. Repeating that gg has trolled before does not supply me what I asked for.
I checked MAL and nobody there is talking about the suspect quality of the fansubs, at least not up to the episode 3 thread. That is where I stopped since 3 was the number of episodes you watched. I searched the internet and the most I could find are the few nitpicks mentioned in my earlier post. I even went to gg's project page and the biggest concern was how does "mera mera mera mera mera mera" translate "into ignite my soul and let it burn". Is that the embellishment and looseness you speak of? You watched it so why don't you give some examples since the issues are so damn obvious to you. If you can't prove the subs are loose and embellished then you should not make or support that accusation. |

Nice.
 Finally the anime has been licensed. Don't know if I'll be going after the sets right away though when they come out.

I'm glad that a Kimi ni Todoke hard copy can finally be purchased, but man alive, I wanted a dub. I truly wanted a dub for this. I've been constantly wondering what an english speaking Sawako would sound like and......sigh.
To be honest, I'm kinda disappointed. But, it happens and I'd rather have it not dubbed than not picked up. I'll definitely be buying. I've been wanting it since I started the manga! |
