I really hope another subbing group picks up this series. The raw has been out since Wednesday and gg still hasn't released subs yet. I don't know if they're busy with other stuff or what, but the wait sucks.

They said when they picked it up it would be subbed slowly. Only 1 guy is doing it.

Never caught that announcement. Well great - one of the few shows that I actually really like this season gets the slow subs. I would give in and watch the raw, but considering all the puns and the fact that I know hardly any Japanese I probably wouldn't enjoy even a bit of it.

Still going to pray for another group to notice this and pick it up. It's doubtful though.

Not only is there only 1 guy from 1 group subbing it, but that 1 guy has examinations at the moment (or soon) and so the subbed versions of Joshiraku are likely to be delayed

source: http://notredreviews.wordpress.com/2012/07/21/delays/

It does mention however, that these exams are in the "coming two weeks" so I imagine any delays are two weeks maximum.

Don't worry, I'm pretty sure it's not being dropped. A quote from the person subbing Joshiraku (from the comments section on that page):
Joshiraku? I think I made it very clear that I love the show and won’t drop it…

Probably the best episode so far for me. What a shame the subs aren't prioritized. As long as it isn't dropped. So many great comedic moments: reciting grudges of a past life, the wall falling down, and the failed dance routine near the end. May bump the score soon.

waited so long for it, and it was great. Loved how they focused on marii and tetora a bit. Now lets hope Joshiraku 4 follows soon =)
I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl

I loved how the bath segment had maybe 15 seconds of the girls in bath, the rest being a totally random picking on Marii. The rest of the episode was pretty funny too, this series has yet to have a bad episode. But I don't think it will.

Well yes, you DID manage to make us jealous. Happy now?

BTW:
Marii (being picked on) + Kukuru (negativity and random useless knowledge) + Gankyou (glasses) = Itoshiki Nozomu, because same author :) But honestly, I do hope this series gets at least a fraction of fame of its predecessor (three sequels and several OVAs, and I've just noticed that there's two more of them, so I gotta go and watch them now kthxbye).

Another thing I've noticed just now. So that's why it's so up-beat and catchy and awesome!

I can't believe gg didn't drop this...

Well, it is true it wasn't as funny as the previous episodes, but it was far better than your average anime show. I liked how the watermelon part aired (not chronologically).

Can't wait for ep4, I heard it's the best so far...

I don't really think we need someone other that gg subbing this. I mean yes, waiting sucks, but quality matters. What if someone begun making quick and dirty subs for such kind of show? First impression from each episode would surely be spoiled and rewatching after that just isn't cool. I'm quite grateful to Vale for not only quality subbing but also posting notes - and all that by himself alone.

Totally called that watermelon spontaneously combusting.

Not that great of an episode, but still the most entertaining show right now.

I'm thankful that there's still one group who's subbing this :/

If gg drops it, no one else will pick it up, so people should quit complaining about the wait :P

btw, here are the translation notes for the parts that need explaining

A year ago, there was the news that many Chinese watermelons exploded because they use illegal chemicals into watermelons.
Koji Kumeta, who is the auther of Joshiraku, likes to delight in teasing such Chinese unexpected happenings in his works.

Poor Mari being mistaken for a guy by her own friends in the end they even had to bath together to confirm she was a girl and they call them selves her friends.
That luck was just ridiculous it was almost if she was the god of luck herself.
