| Hello! So i'm curious... Since Slayers is such an old series no speed sub group has ever subbed it. So I was just wondering if anyone has heard any rumours about what fansub groups will be subbing this godlike series! |
  |
| Toki said they planned on it, and I think Mishicorp might have indicated an interest as well. It will certainly be picked up by somebody, though, even if it's almost assured to be licensed in R1. Oh, and here's the final pre-series trailer: Looks like they're going with the manga adaptation, at least for now. 21 hours to go. I am quite stoked at this juncture, to say the least. |
  |
| Nice! Thanks for showing the video aswell... And is this Toki fansubing fast? or is it one of those slower ones that take 3 days to sub? |
|
Elt- said: And is this Toki fansubing fast? I have no idea, but you can probably judge for yourself by the link in my post above. Elt- said: or is it one of those slower ones that take 3 days to sub? The last time I watched a Slayers series fansubbed it was Try and it took approximately two years in turnaround time from broadcast to fansub release. (I still love you Slow As HELL Anime, wherever you are!)  |

Elt- said: And is this Toki fansubing fast? or is it one of those slower ones that take 3 days to sub? Are you serious? You must be joking. What the hell has it come to when THREE DAYS is slower?! Frankly, I only know of Aquastar doing a joint with Toki for this one, meaning your turnover time is going to be closer to three weeks.. /and that's only a slight exaggeration |
| Well if that's the case then i guess i'll just have to learn japanese and watch the RAWs ... |
|
| Not sure if this is still helpful, but there's 2 groups who have already released the 1st episode. The first one is Tadashi with wyvern (Tadashi doesn't pretty decent subs of Soul Eater. I have no idea about wyvern), and the other one is SS-Eclipse (definitely the best choice). |
| Yes i noticed the SS-Eclipse version just a while ago. Quite impressive having such a good group as Eclipse subbing this godlike series! I hope they will release the subs faster from now on! I'm getting so excited over this series! |
|
| I've seen two versions of it, and to be honest I don't like either. I usually like SS-Eclipse's stuff, but this is not one of those times. Tadashi with wyvern definitely tried with it, and they did pretty good for the most part. I'm actually wishing Soldats or Dattebayo would do it. I'm very happy if Kaizoku did it too. |
| I reject your reality, and substitute my own. |
| SS (Static-Subs) & Eclipse are subbing it. Both of them are fast and very good high quality fansubbers. When they're cooperating it gets even better :) |
| Static-Subs & Eclipse Production dropped Slayers Revolution. Static-Subs' Kunio-kun said: Yes, this is a sad day. We received a cease & desist order from FUNimation Entertainment asking us to stop the fansubbing of Slayers Revolution. We, both Static-Subs and Eclipse Production, have agreed to comply with their statement. It is unfortunate that we have to stop working on such a great show; however I hope you all understand the decision we are making. Thank you for your support for the 6 episodes we have released. Please enjoy the rest of the show when the DVD gets released in your local area. See you again on our future projects. Static-Subs and Eclipse Production Source. |

| The only ones who kept subbing it besides SS-Eclipse were Inuyasha 4ever I think but they are quite behind them (at ep 5). Now when SS-Eclipse dropped it, someone else probably will pick it up. Slayers is not so popular show nowadays to cause mass fanboy hysteria like what happened when sub releases for Zero no Tsukaima got a delay and what caused two more group to pick it up, but I think there is some solid interest in the new Slayers so I'm pretty confident that it will be subbed eventually even if it will be done by some anons. |
| It's worth noting that Funimation haven't even announced they picked this up, and having the license to the other 3 tv shows, doesn't entitle them to make this demand. If Funimation had announced they had the show, then I'd be less annoyed. I've started rewatching the previous shows after deciding a few weeks into Revolution airing that I would in fact not wait for the whole series to be subbed. If I left it a few more weeks to watch Revolution, I could have deleyed the others until I had less on the go |
 |
| It's hard to say from the post whether it can be justified or not. It could be that Funi asked the Japanese production company to send the C&D in their stead. Either way, fansubbing violates copyright laws, so Funi has done nothing wrong. Maybe it's just a tactical move before an actual license will be placed. Sure it's not good news, but nothing revolting. It's happened before, will be happening, and probably more often than before. |

| It says the C+D was sent by Funi, not by Funi + Tv Tokyo or by one in association with the other. If it was the case that Tv Tokyo or a holding company were involved, I'm sure it would have been mentioned Fansubbing may violate copyright law (theres no way to say otherwise), but unless Funmation own some form of right to the individual property (not franchise), they have no right to insist on stopping activity on something owned by someone else. From what I gather Funi have a habit of doing this for shows they don't even own. It should be noted that people like kaizoku fansubs -who are fansubbing properties Funimation actually have rights to- have not been given c+d's, or at least haven't admitted to receiving them. It's possible they are going to announce it at a later time, but thats more likely to be because they haven't received it yet. If they already had the rights, we'd have heard from otakon or something. |

It's highly annoying, but unfortunately quite legal. |

Ok, guy I want to say something straight to you: LAWS LIKE YOU SAY ARE NOT EVERYWHERE AND CERTAINLY ARE NOT APPLIED 100%. SO SCREW THOSE SUB COPYRIGHT LAWS CAUSE AS FAR I AM CONCERNED I USE IT FOR MY OWN PERSONAL USE AND NOT FOR PROFIT. |
| Oops! I appear to be incapable of following Rules 16 and 17, so I had to have a mod change my sig for me. |
| so, are there still subbers left who might continue subbing despite FUNimation? |
 |
| Some kind anons already made softsubs for it and posted the link at 4chan. I think it's only matter of time before someone will make hard or semihard releases as well. |
| softsubs? link! :O And tell me which RAW version to download... IF it isn't included. |
|
| http://zip.4chan.org/a/res/14003733.html That's current thread for it at 4chan, not sure for how long it will be able to stay up. Necessary RAW version is mentioned within readme in the archive. |
| Thanks alot! I appreciate it! |
|
| Anonymous delivered on episode 7- I think (and hope) that 4chan and the rest will bring it forward without making it known who they are. I was gonna buy the DVDs the minute they were released anyway, 'cause I love Slayers. Where's the lost business? :v |

Kit-Tsukasa said: Do you know which raw was used? They provided the info in a text file in the zip. Read it. and I will agree it needs to be kept quiet. And whenever DVD's are released I'm getting them as well. I already got all 3 seasons, all the movies and OVA's. =3 BTW for those that missed out on getting the subs I'll provide them for you all with it for a little bit as well: sr07.zip |

The only other sub i was able to find was chinese or so... But I wasn't able to find neither english nor german nor russian... (I almost believe the russian fansubbers i found translate english to russian) |

Rhayn said: Kit-Tsukasa said: *waits for Eclipse to get a TL* Static-Subs was the one who got a c&d not Eclipse I believe. Eclipse runs their own tracker... btw, I'm having trouble playing the .ass files on the raws...it keeps overlapping/delay. Any idea how to fix it? (I'm using Zero-Raws version 700 x 396) Sorry, what is a TL? I just assumed that Eclipse dropped it as well since they were subbing it together. The subs worked fine for me with the 1280x720 version, but I don't think that's the problem.... TL = Translator. Static Subs was providing the translator, so Eclipse was doing the encoding/TLC/QC. Without a translator for the series Eclipse had no choice but to drop it. |
| i searched yesterday, but i haven't found anything... |

| Kind anons finally released their softsubs for 8th ep. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=VIZSPRHX |

| It's such a pity this new "VivaLaRevolution" group doesn't know how to encode.. I'm grateful and all that they're trying, but.. Looks like I'll have to do my own work from here on out. |
| Aside from that, theyre a good group, right? I havent seen any episodes subbed by them yet. I was kinda wondering if the translation was good. If you all are using them, I guess they cant be bad, though. |
| Blergh. |
| When Eclipse announced that they'll stop subbing slayers revolution, I had a feeling that they would continue with "fake" name. Looking at the Viva La Revolution subs.. They use the same fonts, but for example OP has been translated different. Untrained eye wouldn't notice differences, but there were these small details which bugged me, and job quality wasn't so 'profeshunal'. But SS-Eclipse weren't perfect either so if you love Slayers, and you just want to know Lina and others are talking about, use the VLR subs. ;) |

All they did was extract the fonts from one of the previously released Eclipse mkv files and use them to match up with previous releases. It's not them though. I'm just taking VLR's ass scripts and retiming them for the TV Tokyo raws, which are obviously superior in quality. Some guy posted a torrent on Toshokan earlier today who did the same thing, but he left the audio track as AC3 instead of encoding to Vorbis to get a nice 344 MB filesize... >.< I wish someone would come along and do this properly, and save the rest of us some work. |
