New Slayers TV show

<< < (6/8) > >>

Dakkar:
Hm, looks like they're taking down fansubs of all the shows which might be popular in States. This is kinda interesting, as fansubs don't have direct negative influence on DVD sales. Those who can afford buying DVD's and liked the show they had watched fansubbed are going to buy it anyway, and those who can't wouldn't buy it no matter what. They will simply download dvd-rips, and this is something you can't stop unless you go into unreasonable expenses.
What fansubs could influence are TV airings as most anime fans don't like dubs. So, are hot about airing it on TV?

As for eclipse, joint project is a joint project. First, they might not have enough people to keep it up on their own. Second, this would make SS look wussies, and it's not what best-friends-forever do to each other :)

Stsin:
Just watched what's released so far, since the good fansubs may be harder to get later, if not dropped already.  It's a shame, since it's better than expected and brought back all the feelings on why I liked that series long ago.

@Blanchimont: Yes, but its unlikely that they with Eclipse's standards.

Many of those people honestly do believe official releases are better. At least before HDTV fansubs became common, DVD video quality was better than fansubs, and many people prefer the no-nonsense readable subtitles on DVDs over fancy rainbow-colored fansub subtitles. (I've seen some fansubs that left me wishing for DVD subs, anyway.) Some people don't care about or even don't like fansub features like karaoke and positioned text, and don't like honorifics or random Japanese words in subtitles. And in the opinions of many, official translations are better than fansub translations, an opinion which I believe to be true on average. But I'm not trying to start the 389th fansub vs. DVD sub flamewar, just trying to explain the mindset of the ANN/AoD userbases.

Anyway, it seems ep 7 has come out from an anon group calling itself "VivaLaRevolution." Surprise value = 0.

Not to mention just before someone posted the megatorrent for the previous Slayer franchise as well... However that still won't stop me from posting the batch of SS-Eclipse's releases once I'm done with the uploads on Box 8)...
Unlike VivaLaRevolution at least I will be giving them something to target at... not that I give a damn... (any C&D will be the laughingstock of the day and posted in the comments...)

smoke123:
is it just me or do the new episodes of slayers  (revolution and evolution)...just completely...suck.. ..in comparision with the past slayers series...

animation wise---i liked the old style...heck the quality of the old one was better...i can still remem valgaav in a few shots in the end of try
story wise---- the story line seems ridiculous and...non slayer-ish

it wud seem odd they did not make this the hit they could have since they got the original voice actors...and the staff...

heck ive heard theyve gone so askewed from the novel story line it cannot actually follow the novel anymore

ugh gonna have to wait for the novels now
