I hope you're all ready for some QUALITY, because that's what you're gonna get with the second season of Gunslinger Girl. Nevertheless, here's the first episode, in all its Musashi-esque glory. Maybe future eps will look better? Probably not, but one can always hope.

Anyway, don't want to disappoint you, so I'll critique our "competition" for you. We'll upload some pics for you later, but suffice it to say that if you like to set animals on fire, you'll probably like AEN's attempt at a sub. Maybe that's not quite right... it's more like, if you like drinking your own piss, I suggest getting their release since it's right up your alley.

In their torrent, they say that they're recruiting translators, timers, and encoders. I would also recommend that any available editors and typesetters apply as well, since those positions seem to need filling as well. They seem to need a few good QCers, too. All willing applicants, please head over to http://www.animeen.com/ and let them know you're willing to start a new fansub group, because the one they have needs to be burned to the ground. <b>WARNING: Triad is not responsible for any bodily harm that website may cause.</b>

Thanks for the pickup

I was so happy to see that you guys picked up this show. I loathe anytime I have to go with AEN's subs since I had to bear and grin it to watch prism ark. Thanks a lot.

I loled.

And I sorta hope you drop it, since it would make you delay Kaiji, which gets more EPIC per minute.

And the shitstorm could be good to see too...

The longest part in the fansubbing process is arguably the translating portion. I'm not touching this shit in any shape or form so the speed in the Kaiji releases will probably remain the same; a month after it airs to spite people like you.

lol, sure hope it's no joke, since Triad is a nice group who would be better off subbing something... not so crappy lol :P

Well I hope they are thinking of picking up Dokuro-chan 2, philantrophy's subs are probably not as bad as AEN lol, but they do suck >_>

RE: No. 3869

You are to blame. Now, go make an anime that involves naked Lolitas shooting guns and pushing each other off beams while the announcer drones on about it and Skeletor shows up for no reason. That's the only way to make up for your failure. I'm sure it would be a hit with the viewers here.

If you're hardsubbing, why not just use mp4 which is actually a format that's widely supported?

Well, for the other shows. For this one you might as well use Vivo.

Excellent sub of first episode of season 2. I agree with how this season is not as a classic in its atmosphere compared to season 1. I think people confuse quality with style. Season 2 has the more or less the same amount of quality as season 1 but with a different style (animation is not by Madhouse this time). This change may be hard to adjust for some people and for others, it does not matter. Anyways, good work, The Triad!

Thank you for the sub, but season 2 looks horrible.

I was really looking forward to it but after seeing how it looks like I absolutely wouldn't mind if you dropped it.

And as long as there is another group who's crazy enough to sub it (in a positive way) everything is fine - if not, there are still the mangas to which you can hold on.

Wow, I love you guys. Thanks for this episode.

But there's a little thing i wanna mention, around minute 20:26 at the picture with the Kaleidoscope you wrote "I give this to you, my beloved Louise Antoinette Laure." If you look at the picture [http://randomc.animeblogger.net/image/Gunslinger%20Girl/Gunslinger%20Girl%20-%20Il%20Teatrino%20-%2001%20-%20Large%2026.jpg] and see what is written there, you've done a big mistake (I think it's an big mistake, others maybe not), as I saw it, I thought "Wth, can't they read? o.? " (if you couldn't read you can't translate it, so it was a little shock at the beginning^^'). And another thing could be the opening, I recognized that it wasn't timed very well, but that could be caused by my computer, so it mustn't be a failure of yours.

I only can say that I love your sub, and say 'Thank You' for another time.

Well, what is written on the kaleidoscope does not mean anything... full of mistakes in French, even on the side of the accent... They could have ask a french speaking person before doing what we call "franponais", anyway -__-

Thx :p

According to Claes' explanation of the kaleidoscope's story, our translation of "Louise Antoinette Laure" is correct.

"19th century...a great French literary figure took another man's wife as his mistress."

The literary figure referred to is none other than Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850), and his mistress was Louise-Antoinette-Laure Hinner (later De Berny).

Holy fucking crap, I can post comments here without even registering, and I find out NOW? HAHAHAHAHAH OH WOW, FAIL IS ME.

In any event, I couldn't care less about random crappy shows (like I'm guessing this is). Hell, I didn't even watch a second of the first season. Drop this shit and make me jokesubs (and by jokesubs I mean writing your own stuff instead of translating, resulting in hilarity, not 30 minutes of darkness and gay niggers in space) for every episode of Akagi and Kaiji, please. Thanks in advance.

after looking at the manga more closely you'll see that the new "look" actually matches the original manga's style more for the characters. Problem is, it works okay for the manga, but you blow that up and you get shit. They're proud that Yu Aida was consulted, but I'm pretty sure he didn't say "make it look like my style more, only ugly moe stupidness"

I'll wait for the triad releases for sure...but only if I can adjust to the new style. its so freaking jarring!

My choice of words would have been different but the main statement is there.

>>3910

I concur.

But they clearly overdid it. Instead of trying to change the look to adjust it more closely to the manga they should've kept the old style which is closer to the animation in the manga than it is in season 2.

your encoder failed already at a plain dvd rip (byousoko) and now we get another crappy encode... anything else is good, sad to see that...

Yuu Aida wasn't just "consulted", he's pretty much in charge of the whole thing. And apparently he's such an ass that nobody wants to work with him, which is why they did not manage to get any talented people on the staff, and thus the show looks like it does.
