Code Geass Episode 23 End(?)

Torrent

I just woke up. Mmm.

Anyway, it's the END because they say that episodes 24 and 25 will be aired in summer, which can be at least 2-3 months away, and at worst, 5 months away (Think of the September/October movie rush).

Many thanks to the crew who actually bothered to work on this project. \404, cz and SpiegelEiXXL.

4 man teams ftw!

And special thanks to marsd too. This could not have happened without your help. :D

So, what now, for us?

I don't know. Ayako will still probably go on, but I have officially decided to move on from Fansubbing. I simply do not have the time any more. (AND I AM SERIOUS THIS TIME, CZ. STOP MSNING ME TO TRANSLATE SOME UNKNOWN PROJECT)

But, looking back, this has been one heck of a long journey, even though it was a little over for a year where I've met almost every kind of people in the fansubbing world.

So, why do people Fansub?

For one, I found that some people just LOVE to have their name splattered all over the screen at the credits. They tell people where credits are when it isn't placed on the front page, and just make sure the world knows that THEY are on it. These are the people I realised that abuse their operator status quite a fair bit.

Then, there are some people who love a show and want to work on it. These are the people whom I've really enjoyed working with. They just want to watch it, release the episode so everyone of us can also enjoy it. Sometimes, these people are also the ones that take things a lot less seriously.

A real joy to work with.

Me?

I just like having fun. I've worked on shows which I simply hate translating, but I've always taken joy in translating work. It is thanks to this translation work that I've picked up a lot more japanese than I think I would have unless I move to Japan (maybe not, even then. ;o). The songs, some of their weird ways of speaking, they are all a great place to learn Japanese (Assuming you already have one heck of a foundation to build on... Anime should NOT be your starting point to learn Japanese ;)).

I actually still have one (or two, or three) more projects, but they are all one off OVAs, which is a lot less stressful when compared to a series. I'll have a look what happens then. Whehehe.

What's to happen with SR3 and Geass 24 and 25?

Well, SR3 isn't going to come out this year, at the way it is looking. I'm actually looking at probably Spring 2008 (This time next year), and Geass is still unconfirmed. A lot can happen between now and Spring 2008/Summer 2007, like me walking in front of a truck, me picking up a girl (*GASP*), etc etc.

Nothing is certain. I cannot promise that I'll work on SR3, nor can I promise that I won't. If things go according to plan, this time next year will be a lot more chaotic than what I have now. (And if that's they go according to plan ;))

Ah well. Come what may.

What will I do to this blog?

Frankly, I've no idea. Maybe I'll post some random scripts. Maybe I'll change this to some anti-government blog. Maybe I'll turn this into some 12 year old girl's blog where I talk about how I walk to school everyday.

Or maybe I'll end up picking up on some obscure project that some team is slow on? ;o

Are my vulturing days over?

Who knows? XD

Signing off, once again,
