Animanda

I was just randomly (as you do) looking over the webbie, and realized one thing. Since I declared official stalling mode on, instead of stalling, we seem to have created an era of speedsubbing ~_~.

My evidence (as such that can be held accountable in a court of law):

13th May - I officially declare the start of stalling... and release Hatchin 18.

5 days later (yes, 5 days later) on the 18th May, we release Himitsu 17...

And now... a mere 4 days later (please take note of how the number of days also decreased) on the 22nd of May, we release Souten 03.

Now, taking into account or past speed, which I'd like to take Himitsu as a prime example, of subbing an episode every 1-3 months or so... Please note I didn't declare a stalling mode then!!!! This... is ridiculously... NOT STALLING!!!!!

This is releasing the next episode before a WEEK is even out... This is known as *drum rolls... thunder crashes*

SPEED SUBBING!!!

Which is bad :(

I said we'd never speed sub ;-;

And, if you like more proof... then I have a witness.... Yes, by God, the HEAVENS is my witness.... And if you're not more impressed than you should be!!! Not everyone can compel the Heavens to be their witness... and get away with it. Only special ppl.!!!

Of course, now that I've admitted my sins, I guess I should apologize... I mean special ppl or not... we should all be treated equally, and be punished accordingly...

Unless.... I cover up the truth... oh, now there's a plan or just repent... So, I've decided assassinating various members to try and cover up my sins is just not a good idea... especially since the Heavens will be watching at all times :(

So, I shall repent... and therefore, try very hard... yes, just this little bit harder at stalling... as I originally said I would about 9 days ago .-.

*bows down*

Oh, and if you happen to be really bored (and well, let's just face it... you're sitting here reading my ridiculously long winded post about nonesense, here's a little gem for you. I poked ani for this, so everyone, if you loved it, please say many thanks to him! But er, if you happen to know konami... try it here, and be amazed (and do what it says too!!!!

One more thing... cos I believed it was explained pretty well but as an extra note:

The Disasters of Partisan Prohibitions refers actually to two incidents where a number of Confucian scholars who served as Han officials and a number of university students in the capital opposed the eunuchs believing they were too corrupt. The first incident took place in 166, while the second actually took place in 169 - first incident was bloodless - and Souten refers to the 2nd incident in the story. For more info, please go read up some historical text books!!! The act was actually ended just prior to the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

Anyway, enough of my random rambles.

Enjoy.

So the first thing I did after stalling was to catch up on various things. Surprisingly, Himitsu 17 was one of them @_@. I'm still confused how that happened, but there you go! Himitsu 17 is out, so please enjoy.

Once again, Aoki, Soga and Amachi were competing for the title of who could say the most obvious things in the span of the episode.... sometimes I wonder on their powers of observations ~_~

There's also the random thoughts people have... I mean, I dunno, but maybe it's me... but if I was being chased by a very angry man with a gun... I would not run into a deserted place... I mean, that just makes no sense whatsoever! In fact, one of the things this show lacks is something cute for me to go "aawwwwwwwww" over :(

Oh, as a sidenote, for those waiting, we've finally managed to catch up the Hatchin SD releases with the HD releases (okay... I lied... we haven't done 18 yet, but I'm sure if we all beam nicely at Dae he'll do it asap...) So, sorry for the long wait you SD watchers, but they're all out minus 18+.

And finally, I actually did unlazy myself to work on Souten Kouro 03, so hopefully it should be out soon *cross fingers* If not, I say we blame QC ^_________^

Anyway, I think I should be more lazy... it produced occasionaly nice results, like a release of himitsu :p

Enjoy~

So for the past few days, I've been officially stalling, and I guess that's why I felt guilty enough to post and say...

YES, I AM OFFICIALLY STALLING.

Well, it wasn't officially stalling, I mean, with me stalling surely there must be other peeps to continue the work, no? Or at least, I was hoping things would move while I went through my official stall mode. (For those interested, I was out of the country in a nice place with lots and lots of SUN and food - pity I returned to find it depressingly cold and rainy... so sad)

Anyway, back to my ramble, I really did expect someone to at least do some work while I was stalling, but seems like everyone had the same idea as me... and that was to stall.

Oh, and since I was officially stalling all of animanda's projects ^________^ I also admit I was stalling a few other projects in other groups ^__________________^ So I do apologize for stalling those too (NOT REALLY!!! - I was having far too much fun in the sun and gorging myself full on food )

Anyway, at least be happy that we managed to release an eppie despite me stalling (Hatchin 18 - HD and Hatchin 15 SD - rest of the SDs will be coming along *stares at random peeps*).

Oh, that means I'm afraid Souten is a whee delayed And Himitsu too... Since I was stalling... there was no one to do editing or qc merging ^^;; (yes, I admit it's a bit odd that I happen to edit all of animanda's projects... but that's just how things turned out...)

So I guess this main ramble was to say that this time's stalling was actually my fault and no-one else . Well, okay, maybe we can blame Dae for not encoding Himitsu yet *noddles* I mean that's clearly nothing to do with me *noddles*

Btw. if you actually read this completely random unrelated ramble to fansubbing, I congratulate you and award you one cookie... To be honest, everything I write here is completely unrelated and random... but w/e it keeps me amused.

Anyway, I realized I haven't mentioned Chi even once!!! So to make up for it....


GO AND WATCH CHI!!!!!!!!!!

CHI IS ABSOLUTELY <3~

(random ramble: would all those nice companies such as Viz, Tokyo Pop, Del Ray, etc. please be so nice and hurry up and publish my manga so I can waste some more money .-. )

So, today I was staring at animes airing in summer, and one of them seems to be a chi-type show!

Ukari Penelope - The storyline seems to be around a blue koala and its friends !!!! The fact a blue koala is mentioned immediately grabs my interest. Here's to hoping for another <3~ show like Chi!!!!

Oh, and if you haven't yet - for goodness sake watch Chi!!! It's the most adorable, sweetest show in the whole entire world

*coughs* Anyway, the point of the post today was to talk about Romeo and Juliet. Have you ever wondered what Romeo x Juliet would be like sped up ten times (oh and changed in places) ? Well, wonder no more. The result is surprisingly a lot of blood... and when I say a lot I mean A LOT!! Of course, there is a slight twist in this tale, Juliet asks Romeo to do something different, and Romeo of course listens to dear Juliet...

Another thing to note, is Romeo's courting techniques... they're very novel... indeed, one would say special... Protip for the day is that:

"A sword may slay a man, but to slay an army, one needs the addition of a spear."

Now if only our world leaders could take that hint... We seriously wouldn't need to waste so much money...

Two things to note:

*Daemon is another word for Genie/ Djinni in the currrent eppie (it actually means deity/ god/ demon-like being - in other words, something that's not human :p)

And, I'll be dedicating that especially to Dae-chan ^_________^

*Amore (in case you haven't worked it out yet) is the Italian for love... And no we don't really know why they're speaking Italian in ancient China... they just are, okay?

That's about all I think...

And yes, hopefully there will be another eppie of himitsu soon

Now, go and watch Chi!!!!

Sooooooooo....... as promised, one month later, I appear to make a post.

Let's take an ickle review... Hatchin has been released... and Himitsu ooo very nice.... maybe we can finish those two soon-ish... Perhaps if someone feeds me lots of cookies I might find some energy to finish them

Then again, Chi is so very cute this season! So adorable.... and quite randomly... I watched Jewel pets the other day. If you like overly pink and cute things, I suggest you take a peek at Jewel pets. It has a very cute rabbit! It also another few cute fluffy animals in it!

I also started watching an anime about a bearded chick... of course, I hadn't realized it was bearded at first... I was attracted by the fluffy chick image... it's an interesting little anime... so why not try that too?

But the most watch show of the season, has undoubtedly got to be Chi Season Two!!!!!

Oh, wait, I nearly forgot the reason why I was posting in the first place... Ahem, here it is... I can proudly announce our new anime for this season is *drum rolls*

Souten Kouro - A story about the Three Kingdoms based around Cao Cao.

Now a few things to note before you go onto moaning about this show to us:

1) Everything is softsubbed - It was one of those why the hell not do a himitsu :p

2) There's no flashy logo/ e.t.c. e.t.c. - a) cos we're too lazy to do a dragon scale, b) cos we're not that bothered.... so if you want to know what the kanji says... it says Souten Kouro (which means er... I forgot... so I'll ask tl-chan and tell you when I find out - Beyond the Heavenly Skies... or something... I think... at a google guess...)

3) Since stuff is softsubbed, people with slow computers, might get laggy signs in some places. We've done our best to minimise this.... so er... don't yell about timing, cos it's probably your computer ^^;;

4) The OP is like this mish mash of unknown sounds, so we tried our best... it's a bit of engrish and japanese... so once the official lyrics come out, we'll update it. Saying so... they chose the worse part of the op to sing... the full version has nice singing bits in it!!!

5) Each release will have TWO subtitle tracks. One with CHINESE names and one with JAPANESE names. The chinese is default at the moment, since the show is set in ancient china. But for those who prefer the Japanese names to go with the audio more, feel free to change The choice of names is entirely in your hands!

6) If you don't like blood, then I suggest you not watch this show. This is on the opposite spectrum of Chi!

Anyway, without further ado... go and watch it, I guess?

And I guess this means I can be lazy for another few weeks...

It appears ep 17 of Michiko to Hatchin was released... And only 3 weeks after the previous ep... Not bad...

So, since no one else is going to post anything about it, I'll just mention that [Animanda]_Himitsu_-_The_Revelation_16_[52907A95].mkv was released a little while ago.
