Ordered Chapters in Anime

The advent of this is both good and bad.  It's good for file size......but bad for those of us mac users who haven't upgraded to Snow Leopard.

Why is this?

The only software for a mac which uses this correctly is MPlayer OSX Extended.  And that is only with an extra binary installed......THAT ONLY WORKS WITH 10.6 (Snow Leopard) OR LATER.......NOTHING EARLIER.  NOT EVEN 10.5.8.

I want these movies that are good quality.  But the good quality ones all seem to be using ordered chapters now.  I've started re-encoding them for myself removing the chapter markers.  But this is only temporary.

Originally I wasn't going to bother getting the upgrade since all my software works fine and all.  But now I'm actually going to scrape out the cash for an upgrade.

Ch67 Done.....now for 70

Okay Hajimete no Aku ch67 has been finished.  I submitted it for QC and should probably be up in a few days.  Now I'm working on ch70.

Someone else is working on ch69.  They should be taking over the odd number chapters, so they'll be a regular.

Hajimete no Aku Update

Okay Hajimete no Aku ch68 was finished and uploaded.  And now, unfortunately, the group we were doing this alongside has dropped it.  I'm working on ch67 now to try and get it finished, but it will take a few days.

So now that we're the ones doing it every week for the moment, the releases will probably take a little longer.

However I have no intention whatsoever of dropping it.

Funny series I found

Just by chance I came across an unusual series Ichinensei ni Nacchattara.

Give it a chance and read it.  It's actually funny as hell.

Working on Hajimete no Aku ch68

Hajimete no Aku ch66 was released earlier this week.

I started working on ch68 then as well (a few days before actually).  Stage 1 cleaning is done, waiting for a trans now.

And Manga fans.....please remember to thank the groups who make series you like.  Certain companies are starting to pursue legal action because of these series being available online (not from them).

So remember.....these groups are only around for now.  Someday, near or far, they can be forced apart.

More articles on this can be found here for some of it.

So please also remember to support the mangaka of the series you love by purchasing their work when available.  If they can't afford to get by.....they can't keep creating.

Been awhile but back for Hajimete no Aku

Haven't made a post in a bit so here goes an update.

I am currently in Typesetting and Stage 2 cleaning (SFX) for ch66 of Hajimete no Aku.

Current Anime season is going pretty good for those keeping up.
My favorite series of this season is Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaō.  Angel Beats is a second.  If you haven't watched them, You really should look them up......even if just on Wikipedia.
Can't wait to see the lineup for next season.  Hope it's good.

That's all for now.

Hajimete no Aku ch56 update and Anime stuff

Okay first off.....Hajimete no Aku ch56 is finished and up.  I finished it anyway even though some jackass group tried to usurp the project from the 2 groups which do it regularly.  They suck.  I'll start cleaning ch58 either today or tomorrow.

And new anime season has started.  Let's get a big applause here people.  I mean BIG.  Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou looks like it might be interesting so I'm keeping up with it.  Kiss X Sis looks like it might be worth watching for the comedy act (even though slightly perverted--but who cares about that.....just adds to the enjoyment).

I don't know about any of the other series this season but I'll probably check some of them out.

Oh and I have heard that Baka to Test to Shokanju has been approved for a second season.  It's an interesting show that makes fun of pokemon type things so I'm happy about it.
