I'll be watching it every week since there is no need to see the original series. Looking forward to Dragon Ball Kai the most tough. That new Beyblade is out soon as well, isn't it? Lol.

Yes Beyblade Season 4, I know it sounds cheesey but Im going to watch it.
Im reading the Soul Eater manga from the beginning now cause the anime has ended.

Okay, Im gonna watch DB Kai with you aswell :)
Btw Chris, Soul Eater last episode = good but extremely corny.

Brootherhood will be a little awry. Since the anime diverted from the manga to actually make sense. IMO, the anime (story-wise) was just epic.

Though, I dunno. I read the manga, but it has its potential.


It's going to be April 4th for me. ;-) I'm going to watch it un-subbed when it first airs! (yay for 2 years of japanese studying)

Im surprised you'd say that. They're obviously going to be completely different stories, which you know already that the anime differed from the manga. Which means u still need to watch the anime (OMG HOW CAN U NOT OF BY NOW)

I really liked the dub but I'm not waiting... then again the first 20 episodes of the first anime series are very similar to the manga so dunno if they're going to remake all of them.

Why are you surprised? Maybe I phrased that badly... I didn't mean theres no need to watch the original series because it's lame or anything, I meant that theres no need to watch the original series before the new one because the new one is a different series altogether and not a sequel, so it doesn't require you to watch the original first. I know that the original series delved from the manga early on, and that the new one is going to follow the manga the whole way through. I know they are going to have different story lines. Wasn't I the one who told you that? I'll still watch the original series, so chill man. I did start it, but as I read about the episodes on wikipedia the next one I was at sounded really lame and unnecessary, so I watched something else. Then whenever I'm like 'Hey, I'll watch some FMA now!' I remember that I'm on that lame episode and don't feel like watching it anymore. :P I'll force myself through that episode eventually...

You have no power over me in this world. I won't watch it until you watch the Itou Arc anyway. Although theres no point in watching FMA if I know Hughes dies! What a catastrophe!

I watched itou arc ages ago lols.

And if u know that... sure its like one of the saddest and 2nd (maybe 1st) most sad death but the rest is still pure awesome

Neversoft
02-04-2009, 08:18 PM
Pfft, the saddest deaths occur in Ergo Proxy, Trigun and Tekkonkinkreet. Hughes death will have no affect now I know he dies. It takes the fun, excitement, drama and sadness away! Without that, the series is nothing!

I gave away that he died, I didn't say how, why, where, perhaps who, etc etc.... same with you giving away L dissapearing, I could've assumed he was killed which I did, but I still watched the series.

I don't care how or why he dies, the fact that he actually dies is enough. I only told you that L disappeared, I didn't tell you that he dies! Wait, I didn't even directly tell you! You simply read a post you shouldn't have, then you decided you'd have pointless revenge, so don't try and blame this on me! :evil: Because of you, I can't be bothered to watch FMA now... among other reasons.

From what I've read it's an original episode. It doesn't adapted much from the manga. Guess they want to start with an amazing introduction episode first.

I just finished watching it and I'm speechless. That was one damn good episode, especially since it was in HD as well! The openings and endings are awesome, the animation is flawless and already I can't wait for the next episode! The first episode wasn't even an introduction, they did the same as Gintama and showed all of the characters in action before getting into the actual introduction and story in the next episode. So I guess this first episode could fit into the middle of the series in a way. A great start - I want more!

Also, I heard that Funimation will be airing the newest episode every Thursday via their website. A lot of companies seem to be doing that now, it's quite a good idea.

Yeah, overlapping text is well annoying. Shinsen will probably drop the series as well since it's licensed. They seem to have a reputation for doing that. I'd say download the gSS subs. Eclipse are also subbing the series but aparrently their translation is off and their word arrangement could be better. Damn... I'm going to need to buy myself an external hard drive. Downloading like five series in HD a week is going to take up quite a bit of space.

Greed
06-04-2009, 06:44 PM
On April 9th, TBS (Tokyo Broadcasting Station) will be streaming subbed episodes 4 days after each airing. So the best translations will be out on April 9th.

I thought the 1st episode was epic, though, I was a little down that the sparkles weren't pink. Grr! I really do like the opening intro.

Neversoft
06-04-2009, 07:03 PM
The translation is a lot better in fansubs than it is in official subs, so the best translations are already out. The script is Americanized and the honorific's are left out in official subs, among other things.

How sure are you of that? It depends on who translates them. I already seen a lot of translation problems with Shinsen.

The honorifics are not necessary. The company doing the official subs is not funimation or any English branch company. What other things? Episodes won't be edited for content.

It doesn't depend on who translates it, no anime company bothers translating as good as it could be. Fansubs are there for the fans, official subs are just there so companies can make money. They don't care about spot on translations. Just because I said fansubs are better than official subs doesn't mean there aren't mistakes in both. I spotted atleast two mistakes in Shinsen's sub myself, but watch gSS's sub for perfection. Official subs need help with their encoding as well. The subtitles are out of place and timed very poorly on my Ghost in the Shell SAC DVD.

Honorifics are not necessary? Let me quote Del Rey manga here...
"Honorifics can be expressions of respect or endearment. In the context of manga and anime, honorifics give insight into the nature of the relationship between characters. Many translations into English leave out these important honorifics, and therefore distort the 'feel' of the original Japanese."
Honorifics are essential.

GitS DVD was done by an American company, thus the crappy translations. Bones has done their best to keep FMA in line with the users request. That's why they are doing the official subs 4 days after each airing. Even before they are officially dubbed in English and brought to the Western Market.

They are doing this for the viewers request. There is no money making scheme right here. Also, why do you think they are rebooting the series? For the sake of the fan's. They are doing it because the 1st Anime and Manga are completely different from eachother.

Either way, you cannot judge something that has not even been issued out. Just wait until Wednesday for the release video stream.


Of course, Honorifics do add respect to the name. But I'm pretty sure people can obviously hear the added -kun, -sensei, -niisan, etc. It's something that people do not need to see to know its there. Like I said before, just wait until the official sub is out. :rolleyes:

Neversoft
07-04-2009, 01:50 PM
Ghost in the Shell was done by Manga Entertainment, yes it's an American company, but it's also supposedly one of the best anime distribution companies worldwide. Never did I state their translations were off anyway, only their encoding. Plus surely an American company can provide high quality translations since they actually understand the English language. By the way, Bones aren't a distribution company. They're a production company. You sure they're even doing the subtitles? The only Japanese company I know of that provides subtitles is Kadokawa, and that's only for their series' on YouTube.

They're rebooting the series because they know there is money involved. Yep, the first series is different from that manga. That's perfect for them, now they can make another series and earn a nice profit. The only companies that produce programmes for the 'fans' are public service broadcasters, such as the BBC over here, I don't know what you have in California. Besides them, NO company would make something just for the fans. NO company would. That would be a bad marketing decision, and have you noticed how much money they're spending on the new series? A lot. We're in a recession here, do you really think they'll make something without profit in mind?

Well actually I can judge based on past releases, and that's exactly what I'm doing.

What if the viewer is watching a Japanese programme for the first time? How the hell are they going to know what to listen out for? Plus I shouldn't have to pay attention to what the characters are saying, I speak English, not Japanese. Therefore I focus on the subtitles, not what's being said. By saying "It's something that people do not need to see to know it's there" do you mean it's something you do not need to see to know it's there? It's funny because you're trying to tell me that official subs are better than fansubs and at the same time you're trying to argue that it's ok for the official subs to leave the honorifics out, even though it's actually a good thing to keep them in. Contradictory much?

Some of the stuff from the second episode was not in the manga. :S It seems like they're trying to be as different from the original series as possible, but doing so they're missing the point. Being different from the first series is not following the manga at all, since the first series actually did follow it up until around episode 20. A little disappointing compared to the first episode, but good nevertheless. Not the best new episode this week however.
