Yeah, what I'll do is stat I'll begin as soon as at least half of the raws have finished downloading.

Speaking of which, Hibiki 02 has finished.

[KyoryuGreen]

Ah awesome, well it will be a while before I reach Hibiki, so I hope you have a lot of progress by then. =)

So I watched TV-Nihon's, Hibiki 01, and it turns out they did have low-quality raws..

Hopefully, I'll be able to do a better job with Hibiki.

I'm sorry to the original poster this forum turned into a sub group war. That's kind if how these kind of these things go.

Yeah... I'm still glad that people are looking forward to this project, though...

Yeah. But the only reason why they're looking forward to it because the TV nihon rips are bad and they hate thier translations for some reason.

The whole point of a translation is to make us understand it like the original audience would have, so leaving half of the translation in Japanese for the "integrity of Japan" or whatever nonsense is so baffling to me, because then it isn't a translation any more.

Everyone rags on TVN but it sounds like TVNs half finished, Japanese grammar, unreadable garbage is exactly what you want because when Overtime and Aesir actually do a proper translation and you all complain about that because...I don't even know, you just want to complain about everything.

Didn't that lead to the Go-Buster Oh/Go-Buster King confusion?

It's pretty blatantly clear people don't want proper nouns to be translated. I fail to see the humor beyond a vague attempt to take the piss out of everyone.

I don't know anything about that confusion so I can't comment. What I will say is that it's not "blatantly clear" other than for a few vocal purists. Overtime, Aesir, MCS they clearly have their place.

The Go-Buster-Oh/King thing was a freak occurrence really. Personally since Sentai uses both "Oh" and "King" in its naming conventions it makes more sense to keep them as it is, but having the two appear in the same series before had never happened before so I can see why O-T thought it would be passable. That, and I asked them at the time why those chose to translate it (since they kept Gokai-Oh as it was the previous year) and they said they said it felt more in line with the other robots in the show, e.g. Ace.

It isn't like with Kachidoki and Zenith where you translate them and there's always the possibility of a Triumphant and Zenith Arms coming somewhere down the line.

(Just to note - I'm firmly in the camp of "nouns shouldn't be translated" preference. I just find the decisions that go into subbing fascinating even if I don't agree them. Makes me wish I was better at languages )

Not trying to add fuel to the fire, but I think that Over-Time isn't to blame for this as they didn't have any idea that there was gonna be a Go-Buster King. Now, if they were doing an older show and not a current one, (well, it was current at the time) where it would be known that there was a Go-Buster Oh, then you could blame them.
