I am not in the habit of defending Matrixbeast, but his main point is a valid one. We both agree that there's a lot of shows lacking subs, so resubbing a show that already has two complete sets of subs seems a bit pointless.

Everything else Matrixbeast said is him putting his foot in his mouth.


For the record, I have nothing but good things to say about GUIS. I consider GUIS to be the best fansub group currently activate. Come to think of it, I have nothing bad to say about Mega Anon either.

I decided to see where we stand on subs of Sentai by making a list broken down by how many episodes are subbed of said series using the info on page 1. I will not count Dead Fish because they are gone and the subs were not translations in the sightest.

Zero Episodes Subbed:
Goranger (0/84)
J.A.K.Q. (0/35)
Denjiman (0/51)
Dynaman (0/51)

Total: 4 shows with no subs.

Less Than Ten Episodes Subbed:
Goggle-V (3/50)
Changeman (8/55)
Flashman (1/50)
Turboranger (2/51)
Fiveman (6/48)
Kakuranger (4/53)
Ohranger (5/48)

Total: 7 shows that have yet to break 10.

10 or More Episodes Subbed:
Bioman (11/51)
Carranger (19/48)
GoGoV (13/50)
Timeranger (12/51)
Hurricaneger (10/51)
Abaranger (10/50)

Total: 6 shows that are in the teens. Only one is close to 20.

20 or More Episodes Subbed, but Still Unfinished:
Maskman (20/51)
Megaranger (36/51)
Gingaman (35/50)

Total: 3 shows are getting close, but still have plenty to go.

100% of the show is Subbed:
Battle Fever J (100%, though I'm not sure who subbed it and the video quality is awful)
Sun Vulcan (100%)
Liveman (100%)
Jetman (100%)
Zyuranger (100%)
Dairanger (100%)
Gaoranger (100%)
Dekaranger (100%)
Magiranger (100%)
Boukenger (100%)
Go-Onger (100%)
Shinkenger (100%)
Goseiger (100%)
Gokaiger (100%)
Gobusters (100% to date)

Total: 15 shows are 100% complete. Only 6 pre-Dekaranger series are 100% complete.

Looking at the data:
You can see that it's not hard to get the subs started. It's getting it far enough along to finish them that's the difficult part.

There is a total of 20 series with either unfinished or no subs.

Shows that are subbed on a weekly basis while the show is still airing have a much higher completion rate.



I hope this list to look different at the end of the year. Keep in mind that if we would've looked at this last year, there would be 3 less pre-Deka shows with complete subs. 2012 was a great year for old Sentai. Maskman, Carranger, GoGoV, and a few others all seem to be going at a good pace. If the pace is kept, they maybe done by the end of the year.

They weren't? I was under the impression that Dead Fish were fairly decent subs, if a little....erratic in their releases.

I don't think we will ever tackle JAKQ. Shir didn't like translating that series. Too much old school Japanese lingo.

If you want to speed things up I suggest find a translator and start subbing!

OR you can go assist groups like Hikari-Senshi who are in need of timers! And from what I hear are almost complete with GoGoV's translation.

Shame, I'd love to see some more Ohranger subbed.

Yeah no one in the other groups are aware of what happen to these guys. We at GUIS almost did a joint with them on the movie.


For anyone interested in learning how to time a show here is an great tutorial http://gekiknight.wordpress.com/2012...ng-for-timers/

If you're learning Japanese right now this job would imrpove your listening a lot.

gooddrama.net is pretty reliable.

Dead Fish is where we got a line about how Santa molestates children in their sleep. They weren't even trying to translate that.

First of all, from of the few pages and the exclamation marks, I have a feeling you think I'm complaining. I'm not sure if that's what you meant to convey, but I assure you that I'm not complaining. I'm looking at the data presented objectively, nothing more.

That out of the way, translating and subbing is not in my skill set as of this time. However, I will look at the timer business. It looks simple and time consuming.

[Den-O]

Yeah, timing doesn't look to be too difficult. It actually looks like something I could do fairly easily. Never thought I'd say that about anything that had to do with fansubs.

Hi there.
Good news: it looks like GrownUpInSpandex join forces with HS to bring Kakuranger on a weekly basis, they hope to keep the same rythm of release as the one of Zyuranger. Everything is better with ninjas.
Ep. 1-7 out.

Curse you stealing what was going to be my glorious announcement (I kid, welcome to the boards)
Yeah...what he said. Regular Kakuranger. Christmas has come early.
