Alright so now for some news and polling round 2


Alright so here is the news and results and other stuff
Lets get started with the results from the polls and what they mean.

Kurokami
  17 (62%)
Martian Succesor Nadesico
  8 (29%)
Black Lagoon
  3 (11%)
Read or Die OVA and TV
  12 (44%)
Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki
  5 (18%)
Fate/Stay Night
  9 (33%)
Shin Koihime Musou
  7 (25%)


So Kurokami scored the most votes (thanks to many votes from the same people :P but I saw that it was in the lead originally) well there is good news and bad news concerning Kurokami.
The good news is that the release for it is gonna be a very fast one
The bad news is that it is a private release, so let me clarify what private means too, it means staff and friends only and it also means, that it is english only, maybe with subs too if I have them.

Ok so now, the second place winner was Read or Die, (again thanks to lots of extra votes) but this one was actually pretty low or moderate in the standings, either way I do not want to do it right now, I don't know why but I just don't. Maybe if things go well.........

3rd place is Fate/Stay Night (much to John's dismay) well hmmm, I want to do this show BUT I think I am gonna hold off for a bit and see how the other polls turn out, plus I already have raws for the other shows. Don't worry guys I will show you just how badly I can beat THORA, just you wait and see.

A close 4th place winner is Martian Succesor Nadesico which is a project I have taken a very high interest in for a while now, so this show is most likely going to be done by me and thanks to good old Sashamaru it will be in dual audio, just as god intended ;)

A close 5th place is Shin Koihime Musou, well hopefully you know that I am doing this show already so yea, I am gonna do this show, and make proper subs for it. No I do not speak Japanese, I mean I will take commie subs and make them better so there will be no one who will have to figure out what mana means!
To go with this release I will be doing the first season...first? Yes so I already have the first iso downloaded so I jsut need to get to work on that, the DVD looks ok, it does need some work though.What is gonna take time is those terrible subs, they are SOOO bad, I mean they have translation notes when you DO NO need them and the translation notes are NOWHERE TO BE FOUND when you DO NEED THEM. Either way I basically will not be doing any extra translation notes, but what I will be doing is rewriting the entire thing pretty much, or alteast that parts that sound bad (most of it) to make them  sound more like proper english. Also one thing they did which I hate is when a character talks about themselves in the 3rd person they change it to first person. I mean you are changing how the character acts!!! Why would you do that, either way I need to restore all of those scenes too, which makes this not just a normal resubbing attempt.

lol Oh and before I forget, Black Lagoon was just a place holder really lol, but if enough people had wanted me to do it I might of done it. I never actually expected much from this one.

And coming in last place is Tenchi Muyo! You guys just lack taste I swear, I mean you want A-S to be your provider of  HD Tenchi, I don't think so. Either way THIS is a show I WILL be doing as I already have raws for it AND it comes with english audio (WIN) so all we need to do is encode it and then make some subs.

So to summarize this all

Kurokami   NO public release, BD's look too good
17 (62%)

Martian Succesor Nadesico Most likely
8 (29%)

Black Lagoon lol
3 (11%)

Read or Die OVA and TV Meh probably not
12 (44%)

Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki Definetly
5 (18%)

Fate/Stay Night Eventually
9 (33%)

Shin Koihime Musou Yup already planned
7 (25%)


6/28/2010

Hey, Look, Stuff Happened... I Think.



Let it be noted that we will not, and I repeat, will not be releasing Shin Koihime Musou until after we have done the first season, Koihime Musou, so the point of this update is basically to taunt you with something that you will not be seeing for a long time. Ha, ha, suckers! Oh, and the subs for the first season suck because they were (to put it nicely) "very literal" which basically means that the translator could not speak English. (see picture above for subs)

So yeah, we're done with encoding the first episode of Shin Koihime Musou.

Here, we want to be able to see all of the details in the background that were destroyed by some maniac who failed to properly filter the raw. If there are no details, we'll make them ourselves, damn it! This is how committed we are to the cause (T/N: unfunny encoding joke is unfunny).

Anyway, onto the rant (short rant, lots of parenthetical notations). I was told to tell the world at large that something like The Profileth needs to prep the encodes for everything else we're doing (if I listed them all here, you'd be reading for a month), like Koihime Musou (probably using something along the lines of awarpsharp(depth=64,blurlevel=4), if the above picture is any indication of the source) and QC them, and then the releases will just start coming out. Like diarrhea.

That was disgusting. Forgive me.

(Note from the team: no animals were hurt in the process of this encode. By that we mean that no actual warpsharpening has occured, so quit yer' bitchin).

Something tells me I'm probably going to get censored.

T/N: when we say we need to prep, that means adding audio tracks and styling the subs and doing some QC. That does not mean we will be Encoding The Entire Show From Scratch. Although it will probably take that long.)

PICTURE GALLERY TIEM!1!!!!one!

HEY KIDS YOU SHOULD ALL TRY TO GROW BIG DETERMINATIONS. IN YOUR PANTS. CONFUSE THE LADIES. OR MAYBE THE MEN. IT'S UNCLEAR WHO IS TALKING IN THIS PICTURE. THIS WAS A SMALL PICTURE GALLERY SEE YOU LATER FOLKS.

Last minute tack on that nobody will read because it occurs after all the spam: we don't even have the ISOs for Koihime Musou yet, much less working scripts/encodes. I told you you'd have to wait.

IPromiseThisistheLastNote: we're so obsessed with quality, it took us 2 hours to put this post together!



HA I LIED AREN'T I A GREAT PERSON

Warning! Challenger Approaching!

So, uh, letsee here. I got conned into working for The Profileth after I started lurking on his IRC channel after I heard someone complaining about him. I am basically useless. Anyone can be a hero.

Nice to meet you, I am a hyperintelligent time traveling alien from the gamma quadrant. I came back in time to share my knowledge of time traveling with the rest of the historical spectrum in an effort to completely screw up the established system of cause and effect. After failing in that endeavor due to a series of highly unlikely circumstances that really could not have been avoided on my part, several of which involved entire animal species going extinct, I had nearly given up on my life.

But then I remembered I was a hyperintelligent time traveling alien. So I decided to waste my free time doing useless stuff like QCing the same show from v1 to v10910298 and being a sub retard.

Contrary to popular belief, I only exist on IRC (I forgot to mention that I'm a virtual hyperintelligent time traveling alien), so uh yeah. I doubt that information will really be useful to anyone. One last useless note is that my opinions tend to be diametrically opposed to The Profileth's, so we argue a lot. It's fun. If you're insane. Which I think we are.

Introduction over.

PS: A new foe has appeared.
*Edit By The Profileth * Well I might aswell say that I will be forcing him to do various jobs because as diligent and hardworking I am when it comes to video, anything else is pretty bleh. So he probably will be doing my subs for some shows after I give him the styling set up, he also will be here to help QC a good bit and make updates as I force make encourage all new slaves cultists worshippers members.

Announcement of the Next Bluray Project!!!

Yes its official folks I, The Profileth will be doing Shin Koihime Musou as my next bluray project, which I will start making releases for next month!!! Yes you heard it both Mahoromatic AND Shin Koihime will be released next month! I already have done some amazing work on it just take a look here.
As this show is a single audio only show that is ecchi and contains nudity it will be the first series to be released under my pseudo-sub group (hehehe yes sub as in below and as in subtitles) I will try and produce the best possible subs, as I will request that a friend of mine help with the subs I will be using, which are going to be based off of Commie subs, just like the Polished encode. As I refuse to do 1080p encodes I like to make up for it with 480p downscales, and you will see one of those with this show soon enough.
Would just like to point out that this is not my only bluray project I am going to do, so don't worry everyone the other.


On to more regular news, I am doing Burn Up Warrior, I am almost done I just need to solve an issue with lines going haywire -_-,
Galaxy Angel dvd 3 is done.
Space Pirate Mito DVD 2 is done

Umm probably am missing something because I am so excited about this, either way later.
6/20/2010

We want you!

Well when I say that I mean "some" of you. I have decided to make a full recruitment post rather than to just keep hinting at it, this will help to detail what I am looking for.
Positions:
Dedicated Encoder (contact me for a full debriefing on what I mean)

General Staff (like Mods and Ops for the IRC Channel aswell as other people who are willing to do work on the site, plus other nice things like help with odd jobs and that sort of stuff)

QCers (most staff will double as these people, but it would be nice to get a couple of QCers who could help to make sure that when I mess up it gets fixed)

Acquisition Experts (these people know their way around share and perfect dark and do not need me to tell them that I am talking about the p2p client and not the game, and extremely important part of any group that intend to use moderately to impossibly hard to find sources)

Some other positions that would be nice but are not necessary are

Translator (for when I do subbed shows, it would be good to know someone who knows Japanese)

Torrent seeders (This position is sort of for shows that I can not put on BakaBT, so stuff for Nyaa, less needed but still nice to have)

If you have services that you would like to give, but they are not listed on this post please contact me about them as they end up being useful.
6/18/2010

I return and with me come answers and news

Please note that this is not my encode, it is the DVD

Well for those who did not quite "understand" my last "update", well let me make it simple for you.
Its funny nobody has been able to figure out the meaning of the post without me telling them what it was. Well the reason for the post was to express my extreme level of happiness with the amount of progress I have made and my anticipation for next month which is going to be amazing with all the releases I have in store (I mean literally I am stock piling them right now), hopefully I will be able to have the encodes ready for release next month.

Also another thing ALOT of people missed. The post title was the acronym for P.A.S.S.I.O.N
Proclaiming Aspiration, Standing Steadfast In Opposing Normalcy

Either way, as of right now I am doing this
Encoding episode 2 of Berserk, I have already finished episode 1
More about Berserk DVD VS Mine Exiled-Destiny VS Mine
Then
I will do ALL of Space Pirate Mito (season 1 that is)
Then
I will get back and finish the rest of Galaxy Angels season 1.
After all this encoding is finally done I guess I will either
do an other show, like a v3 for Dragon Half or I will prep all of the encodes for release IE: Subs, chapters, QCing. And maybe if you are lucky both :)

Proclaiming Aspiration, Standing Steadfast In Opposing Normalcy


Yes everyone next month, WE shall have our names carved into the stones of history. We shall surpass those who have fallen and rise above all those who will try to drag us down, let us vanquish our foes and hindrances with a stern hand, and we shall use that same hand to embrace our destiny. For we shall step forth unto a new level of ambition that shall awaken the inner brilliance that has laid dormant for so long. This glorious moment in time shall be a tribute to the ever burning passion that we all keep inside us. And we shall step forth unto this new world and proclaim that at long last we are able to free our minds of negativity and stigmas. We shall be unto ourselves, as we we wish ourselves, to be unto we. 
We shall be Dual-Duality and let us all remember P.A.S.S.I.O.N is key

New Poll and Updates


So the time has come. Now it is in your hands to help me decide what bluray I should do next. So everyone please vote, please try to limit yourself to only 3 shows maybe 4 max. Also if there are any other shows that you want done that have a bluray and an english dub (I will make a rare exception and do a sub only show maybe) then make sure to let me know and I will restart the polls.

Time for an update
I am making excellent progress on Galaxy Angels, I should have DVD 2 finished by today.

After Galaxy Angel I will probably work on Space Pirate Mito and when I finish that then I will swing back around and encode Berserk. Everything after that is still up in the air.

Hmm I might aswell try to introduce our contestants for the poll

6/10/2010

Well so here are my plans for the rest of this month

Unfortunately I have sort of spent alot of my bandwidth up already this month. So I need to cut back which means no more releases THIS month. Next month I will either just have a massive amount of releases in 1 day  or maybe I will spread them out to make it seem like I am doing more than I really am (that one does have an appeal to me) Either way next month is going to be FULL of releases and I WILL finish atleast 1 series by the end of next month. Either way while you wait let me give you a nice list of what I PLAN on working on, in order of most likely to get a batch release (usually 4 or 6 episodes per batch) next month

100 %
Galaxy Angel: For those who have not seen the series it is a good one. Do not let the title or cover through you off this is not some ecchi show or shoujo crap. It is a good episodic comedy anime that devotes each episode to parodying well known film ideas and generic episode types. It's sort of hard to explain fully, you just gotta watch the show.


90%
Space Pirate Mito: An interesting show with a good concept, it caught my eye a while ago, but the kicker for me was when I found out that that it had 2 of my favorite voice actresses ever in it! Lisa Ortiz who did Lina Inverse from Slayers (one of my favorite shows) and Jessica Calvello who did Excel Excel (yes that is her full name lol) from Excel Saga (also one of my favorite shows). The art is pretty solid for it being a show from 1999 and the CGI is pretty funny if not nostalgic, in a good way that is.


70%
Berserk: I just finished watching this show as of an hour of writing this. A true masterpiece is what this show is. Excellent art, plot, dub, and character development really do make this the cult classic that it is today. A must watch for any avid anime lover, but be warned that this show does contain some pretty bloody scenes and nudity in later episodes and just overall creepiness especially near the end.


70%
Hanaukyo Maid Team: La Verite: Now here is your healthy dosage of moe and ecchi. Hundreds of maids all working for 1 boy who has suddenly been appointed head of his household. I may not know much about this series as I have yet to watch it, but let me tell you this, from what I have seen so far I do expect this to be a fun series and one that will atleast be comparable to its predecessor.


30% 
Miami Guns:Well this show definitely looks like fun, I watched 1 episode of it so far and it seems to me to be a mixture of burn up warrior (or excess), dirty pair, and maybe a little Excel Saga. This show is full of parodies of cop movies and cop shows and I actually still need the 4th DVD so I can have a complete set.


10% 
Dragon-Half redo: As most of you should know I have already done a Dragon-Half encode. But I used a PAL DVD before, this time I will use a NTSC DVD which has 5.1 surround sound audio. I also will do a more proper job and with my new skills it will be a much better encode.


5% 
Irresponsible Captain Tylor: A really good show, very funny with a unique sense of humor and good art, I really need to finish watching this show. Probably will not get a batch release. I think I will just hold out until I finish the entire thing then I will offer it to BakaBT, then I will upload it while it is waiting to be accepted.


0% 
Macademi Wasshoi: Yes I will get to this show as soon as I can get the DVD's if anyone has them PLEASE contact me and I will GLADLY take them sub or unsubbed does not matter because I am sure I can find some one who will help with with that. Actually as soon as I get the DVD's for this I will drop everything and do this.

Also please note that no batch release does not mean I will not be working on it.
Also Buso Renkin could possibly show up at the table so just wanted to give a heads up.

Mahoromatic episode 4 will also be released next month and then I will start on the other bluray, so you can expect atleast 1 episode next month. It all depends on how much bandwidth I have available.

Also why not check out the new IRC channel I have, there are a few regulars that show up aswell as me so atleast you should have someone to talk to.

Again I will continue to give out the message that I am recruiting and am willing to accept new members onto the team. Contact me for further information about joining at fak3mail@rocketmail.com or just use the chat or IRC as I tend to check those MUCH more frequently.

Hmm its weird, it seems that I am making updates for nobody , and they are rather for myself, only to try and justify my worth by giving menial examples of things I am going to do, or is it because it gives me some sense of a having a plan helps to make things more clear and easy to follow. In other words since I have no followers or groupies or fans or visitors these updates are trivial at best and questionable at worse. Does that mean I should not make updates due to the fact that they only are to satisfy my glut for attention? Or should I continue yelling into the darkness hoping that even if a single soul hears me then I have achieved something. Well I am probably over thinking this, either way  I guess I can just try to justify these updates that nobody reads as being archival and for myself incase I forget about what I planned to do.

Don't leave me out

My laptop keeps crashing, but I am working on it, but I just wanted to drop in and help with the random catgirl pics :P


6/03/2010

Heh sticking with the theme of the day

Hehehe well apparently Sashamaru caught on, either way these pictures are fun so I might just use them for my update posts.
Anyways not much releases right now getting everything ready so I will not need to make another revision. for those of you that are bored and/or want to know more about me or my beliefs just check out the new extended quotes and lectures page
This weekend we have some nice stuff coming so make sure to check in.

I think Dual-Duality is a pretty cool guy. eh links to amateur Japanese CG catgurl sites and doesn't afraid of anything.


I'm glad to see that John will be around more often, for he is a purveyor of lulz.


I swung by the site after a day or so, and came across this link posted by John in the chatroom.


To quote the site's main statement on it's CG gallery:

"Because there are many for itself, it is does forcefully, and it is being classified."


Indeed, there are several varieties of catgirls on this site that are in need of classification. There are even some tutorials on how to create your very own CG-drawn catgirls using the same programs that the artist used. Alas, they are detailed in Japanese. Google Chrome gets diarrhea when it tries to translate it. It basically says "No."

XD

So who missed me........anyone?

So which one of the 3 or 4 people that Pro makes read this missed me? Anybody? come on don't be shy speak up........whatever then :P

So by the looks of things, it has been real quiet around here (insert cricket noise here) because why else would Pro send secret messages written in the blood of small farm animals (a.k.a super annoying red font thingy)......Pro I am on to you and your sick ways and your mind control and your sex appeal.....Damn it Pro stay out of my head!!
But seriously people (all 3 or 4 of you) I kind of needed a break from the fabulous world of the internetz and my real life is kind of crazy, so I took one, a break that is. Thats right I got it like that, I can stop using the internet anytime I want to!!!!The internet has no hold on my soul, I can leave anytime I want.... (Disclaimer- I would just like to point out the internet does indeed have a firm grip upon me and in fact I surfed the internet on my droid the whole entire time I was gone. Please forgive me Internet for spouting horrible lies about you, please don't hurt me anymore, I am sorry)

But now that I am back don't you worry my kittens things will perk up again. I will post witty updates about absolute nothing again. After all that is why Pro keeps me around here (my wittiness) because we all know besides that I do nothing else :P (okay well on occasion I do smuggle stuff in my.........just kidding Homeland security and Border Patrol and ICE and Customs)

It is nice to be back ( I think.....:| ) and before I go I would just like to say some stuff to the animators of "One Piece" and "bleach" and "Naruto" (like they care LMAO)

STOP STOP STOP STOP STOP I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE, I am 80 episodes into One piece and just knowing that I got 300+ more to go makes me wanna bang my head on a very hard concrete wall. And that goes for you as well Bleach and Naruto, enough is enough I just cant take it anymore.

Well this concouldes my time, I would like to thank you all and I look forward to being forced into this many more times.
I say good day to you
and remember kids........."I just anime"
