Helllooo ladies
Hmmm, just what is Luka looking at? She doesn't look into the camera in any of the shots.

Hey, this looks familiar

OOO 36-37 SD version 2 released

Gotou and Satonaka

Explanation for the version 2 HD out later.

Also, I forgot to include Junction 4. Just grab it off the DDL if you missed it the first time, it's not a large file by any means.

Sorry~

Looks like there's some mistakes in 36 and 37 and we'll be doing version 2's of them. Click the link if you want to see the details

Edit: I'm kind of surprised that no one's brought this to my attention before now. Remember you can always e-mail corrections or use the linked thread for such things. Thanks!

Additional note, this shouldn't be used to reflect the work that the quality checkers do. It's not their job to know Japanese, that's my job. Sometimes mistakes get through and aren't realized for three weeks.

Satou Takeru as Rurouni Kenshin

It's been a while since I heard about this, but apparently the live Rurouni Kenshin thing is happening. Starring Den-O! Sweet.

The only way this would be better is if his epic rival, Tendou Souji appeared in this feature as well.

Kotaku's first episode of Retro Gaming Master (GameCenter CX) tonight

I'm going to be at work, but I'm sure other people in the channel will watch it. Starts at 8 PM Eastern tonight.

Our IRC Channel: Won't you come and watch it with us?

Forum Thread

Edit: People've been asking, but yeah, we do plan to do more GCCX episodes. I just want to catch up on some other projects and have them in good spots before taking them on. Thanks for your patience.

Last HD Precure Batch is up

Precure Precure

Includes the movie and all the other good stuff. The bonus footage either has the HD version of the SD files or a copy of the SD file, so if you grab all the HD batches, you should have at least one type of all the files without needing to mess with the SD batches.

And that should keep us set up until DX 3 comes out.

Den-O 1-12 HD

More on Kotaku's GameCenter CX release

 http://kotaku.com/5814017/this-thursday-sees-the-us-premiere-of-japans-c...

So we know a little more about what's coming out on Thursday. Looks like they're skipping ahead to season four and doing Ninja Gaiden. Looks like the version being released will be a condensed version.

It'll have "English captions for Arino and English dubbing for his off-camera announcer." I don't understand the reasoning for that, but eh.

Let's watch it together and see what we think.

Oreimo Radio Transcript 12

Oreimo 12

Episode 12
This time we have:

  • Talk about the game and DVD release
  • The My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute stories corner
  • A discussion of cafes for males versus females
  • More sexual harassment from Kana-chan.
  • Looks like the next VS will be Sakura versus Sailor Moon. Should be good.

Check the previous post to note some corrections that were made to previous transcripts.

Toku Comics (and fanart)

So I've fallen behind on doing translations for the comics. I just did them in a batch and dropped them in this thread here:

Toku comics thread

Edit:

I also found this last night. I guess it's better than before, but the problem of them looking indistinguishable from each other still kind of exists. Den-O and Faiz/Ryuki look exactly the same. And I thought Kiva was Agito for a bit. And do you remember how OOO is all green in his base form?

I know these complaints are silly and nitpicky since it's just Kamen Rider Girls, but if your whole deal is being based on something people like and it's ignored, then the whole point of the thing is ruiined. It's sort of the logic that goes into half-hearted movies based on things people like, like video game movies. Too many spinoffs try to succeed based on name or brand recognition instead of capturing what it is that people like about the original thing.

Dogu-chan 4 released


Did you remember we were doing this show? Let backlog week begin!*

Remember, there's no OOO or Gokaiger this week.
