The Profileth's computer is borked: expect the same amount of releases as usual.

I kind of wonder what the point of putting text here is when I have included all relevant details in the post title.

However, since you have nothing to watch, I might as well give you something to read, I suppose. The Profileth's computer has been acting up lately, and by acting up, what I mean is that it has been shutting down.

Normally, a computer shutting down isn't a bad thing. However, when it shuts down when you're in the middle of doing things like encoding some video while playing Crysis on the highest video settings while storing your computer in the same oven you're cooking your dinner in, that is a bad thing.

To conclude, The Profileth should really invest in some cooling equipment for his computer, or at least stop storing it places that are traditionally kept at 80 degrees C.

Now, the slower-witted among you may be wondering to yourselves, "how does this affect me?" Well, what it means is that we're going to be going a bit slower on this whole release thing than usual. Of course, going slower than zero is not something that can be accomplished by your ordinary layperson. It requires at least several ordinary laypersons, preferably full of various illegal stimulants. Our plan of action is to steadily remove our releases. Once they're all gone, well that's a secret, but rest assured that unprogress must continue!

Translator's note: if you were dumb enough to think that we're going to be removing the small amount of things we've actually released, pat yourself on the back for being able to read and breathe at the same time. IF you aren't passed out, that is.

Either way, The Profileth will be taking some time to try to diagnose the problem, and if that doesn't succeed, he'll probably dump all of the encoding work on lightningedger and we'll run from there.

Hi I am lightningedger, this was brought to my attention by The_Profileth who invited me into the group after noticing that I did rips for animepassion.tv.
At first I only did this so that I could have a file copy of the show I watch without carrying the disks around, but now that I have found out that a person could change the by writing some code, I became ecstatic (I love my coding). I plan to stay as long as any skill I have or obtain is needed. That looks like I am in for a very long time lol.

I am currently working on Read Or Die: The TV, DearS, and Elemental Gelade

That is all

I will be back................next week

Don't cry everyone, I just need to go on vacation for a week and I will return, hopefully this will give lightningblade the opportunity to freshen up on his avisynth skills and hopefully get better while I am gone, either way when I get back I have several new BD projects that I can start and alot of Galaxy Angels that I need to release.

Yes here I am again with another OVA, ok stop looking at me funny, I like to encode OVA's because they tend to be less work to encode and release, plus I do not really have to work up the effort to do the subs since there is only 1 episode or 2 I need to do them for. Either way, this is a very fun short OVA. It is from 1986 and was remastered and redubbed in 2006. One thing about the dub is that they had 4 voice actors do each part, then they put all of them up online and let people vote. I actually remember voting for this lol, but I forgot about it. Either way there was a total of 18000 people who voted. The dub because of this is very good and definitely should be watched.
 The actual OVA itself is some fun having to do with a guy who gets abducted by an alien with moe goat horns, either way she wants to marry him and save the sacred planet which happens to be earth, the plot is not a bad one, but the actual fun is from the show. A good quick watch, if you like it and want to finish it there is a manga out for it as this only covers the first half of the manga. 
Did I mention there are both ewok like creatures and a catgirl in this? 

Also as I have not been updating often enough I will take this opportunity to say everything that has happened, which actually has been alot of over the last week.

We have a new encoder in training, Lightningblade or Lightningedger as the other name was already taken lol , I will be teaching him how to encode and the ways of avisynth either way with his magical computer hopefully if all goes well we shall see great things in the future.

I have started my invasion of the forum http://animepassion.tv so you can find me there, spreading the seeds of rebellion.

What else? Umm more releases coming soon I just got to convert the audio for Galaxy Angels and episodes 1-20 can be released.

I am sort of crazy so I keep trying new projects, one of them might be Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari to compensate for the loss of Tenchi, this show is about Tenchi's "half brother". Here is a quote from ANN what it is about "The story is set in an alternate world called Geminar, where countries have fought endless wars with replicas of humanoid Seikishi weapons that they found in ancient ruins. 15-year-old Masaki Kenshi, the half-brother of Tenchi Muyou! protagonist Masaki Tenchi, is summoned from another world to Geminar" So basically its a bluray version of Tenchi but with more robots lol, either way the blurays are sort of meh really kinda blurry, so they are definitely justifiable.

Ummm oh yes, Berserk is sort of almost ready for the initial release, which will be english only so that you watch the amazing dub, when I finish the show a japanese dub will be made available and I will have a full set of subs, as right now they are given me issues only a full english ASS sub will be included.

Its a bird....its a plane.......nooo its Project A-ko



Yay finally I release something! Well either way its a great show and I used an EXTREMELY good source, it as a restored laserdisc that has been IVTC and all the other fancy things, I did some moderate tweaks but the majority of the work was done by the person who restored the disc. Please note that this show is from 1986 but is none the less a classic and still extremely enjoyable. Either way the quality is vastly improved ANY previous encode ever made and that is not just me being cocky.

Quick update

Well from what I have been reading, and from the "people" who contacted me, apparently Funimation just licensed a bunch of shows, now the shows from Geneon are almost 100% being taken by Funimation which includes all of Tenchi Muyo, so basically if that is true then Tenchi is only gonna get a private staff and friends only release, I really hope that Funimation Releases the BD's for Tenchi and I actually would not mind seeing upscales of the other shows to tell the truth I mean something is better than nothing.

Ooops

Well for accidentally deleting Sashamaru's post I will try and test out this new feature.
And for those of you with a sense of humor, rejoice at this classic

Welcome to the Dual-Duality and the Anime Archive

Welcome newcomers and people who have been here through the Ages. I am the keeper of this archive. This website shall be used for 2 purposes
1: To release my groups encodes and create a community.
2:To document and obtain good anime. The anime has to be finished but may or may not be dubbed ( I will state if it is dubbed or subbed) and may or may not involve mild nudity (again I will state if it does, also nipples nothing else or that is hentai),pictures or screenshots may be used (and are encouraged but no nudity), also I may state the main genres that are most prominent in the series.

Things that are required to download everything correctly:
A torrent client (utorrent works well)
A BakaBT account (that is where I usually link to and I upload anime there)
"JDownloader"> (it is a type of download manager for Direct download sites like RS,MU and Mediafire which I will be using alot of, but can also download batches of files from a single index file, I will only use these rarely but they will be used if no other option is available. It also has native support for mediafire so it makes things much easier.)
