Am curious because the early episodes look like they were done a while ago and it could just be a case of early Nihon I guess.

I'd rather not download an entirely new set of episodes unless I really have to.

I'm up to episode 27 and so far the only real snag I've hit in the TVN subs just happened with the last two episodes I've watched. I've been able to put up with the special attacks not being translated, but episodes 26 and 27 are all about some crazy martial arts guy attacking dudes and Ryou going after him. There is a lot of talk about "kenshi" and "kenpou" in these episodes and neither term is translated, not even a TL note. I think I know more or less what they're trying to say, thanks to the context, but it's still really confusing and distracting.

Other than that, though, I've found the TVN subs to be reasonably satisfactory. And I'm saying that as someone who prefers full and localized translations over the more literal style TVN uses.
