kenshin-dono:
the only thread i saw other than uploader stuff was one briefly commenting on the 2008 tv series and it was quite old

was gonna give this show a look after seeing some amusing scereenshots. I hear its pretty good, though im not really sure what makes it so special. The description makes it sound like a generic school comedy, with an ecchi tag.. how ecchi are we talking? what makes it stand out?

the biggest problem is that it seems the fansub releases are kinda a mess. 

the original OAV is easy enough to find. Im assuming thats the best one, and the one most people refer to?


the problem is when you get to the 2 follow ups. the TV 2008 series seems like it never got a decent subber. The chiro one is slammed everyhere i read. Not just for translation, which i could probably live with, but i hear the actual encode was a friggin mess, with audio skipping, and visual problems left and right. Is this exagerated, or is it true? I can live with mediocre speed sub translations, but when the encode/vid qualitys poor enough to effect the viewing thats a problem, especially since i watch it on a big screen.

Why isn't it on BBT btw? The reasons i was reading was because DATS was suposed to be releasing a version, but they stoped on ep 2 a long time ago. Is the quality just too piss poor, even for a speedsub, or is there another group out there taht im not seeing that plans on finishing it?

not really sure what i should gofor on this one if i want to see it.. just bite the bullet and gofor the chiro one?

the 2nd OAV/3rd release is pretty self explanitory, i only see one sub out there from a group called subsmith. Is that the only option? How is it? Im curious why its not on BBT, im wondering if its really bad or something. Theres no comments for it that i can see.

As far as continuity im a bit confused. The relationship i see goes first OAV> TV series (that i dont see a good sub of) > 2nd OAV. However it lists the original TV series and 2nd OAV as alternate versions from the original OAV. How are they related? Would it be comparable to the original Tenchi Muyo OAV, and then the Tenchi TV series? Kinda the same characters but they changed them around a bit and took out/added some?

I heard this series pretty good so i wanted to check it out but it seems like the subbers avalible for it were slim picking and it got kinda mucked up =(

oh ya, one last thing. Im guessing you dont gotta worry for the OAV's, but the 2008 tv series, was that censored? I dont supose theres really a choice of what to get even if it was since all i see is the chihiro ones

I guess in the meantime i'll try to snag the original OAV and see if its even worth pursing the other 2 versions

XinWind:
All I got to say is you think wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy y too much.

Why not just lay back and just watch the first episode of it all and see if you like it?
Just look for who released it, compare it to the others, pick the best, then watch.

Sorry, but you take so much time to question things that you are honestly wasting more time trying to find out things then it is to just watch the first episode to see if you like it or not. If you looked at all the subbers already and stuff why not just pick the best and just watch it. I respect you wanting to not waste your time on bad animes or not wanting to watch censored or not censored, but you throw it overboard to me now. Why not search up censorship and the name of the anime? If you can't find it then there isn't.

Reason why people don't bother subbing the series version instead of the OAV is plain and simple its a retell. Surprised out of all that you have been searching you didn't find that out. All the series is just a retell and a few more scenes and has a little more of a storyline to it.

This series has NOTHING to censor....

You honestly answered all your questions yourself.... Just watch it or don't. You take so much time to try to find things out when most of the time it ain't even all that serious and important. You have burned more time asking and searching then just watching and enjoying. You could of figured all this out by just watching it already.

This anime is more slice of life than anything and is just pure comedy except its only takes place in school. Easy to compare with Minami-ke except Minami-ke is not just only at school.

I'm sorry I'm being a total asshole, but god EVERY anime you have thought about watching you have to go into the littlest detail. Just because its labeled ecchi doesn't mean its serious ecchi.... Its about middle school students for god sakes. I know you've seen the pictures of the characters at least by now with all this searching. I'm tired of seeing you question EVERYTHING about an anime when you could just enjoy the damn anime by watching it and finding out for yourself already. Like I said you burn twice as much time just for what? I understand doing it for quality and censorship, but you throw this overboard. If you can't find more groups then take what you can.... You are wasting so much time trying to find out instead of enjoying the good animes.

Seriously calm down with the search for perfection and just lay back and enjoy the anime. Its not like the censorship if there is any will stop you from enjoying it or watch it for that matter. If there is 1group then there is 1group take it or you don't its that easy. Also why not look at the date these animes came out and think about how long it takes for uncensored animes to come out. The OAV was back in 2006 and the series is 2008. It doesn't take THAT long to uncensor an anime. /end rant

Eseuldor:
The original OAV and the TV series are essentially parallels to each other to a certain point. If you only want to watch one Then watch the TV series since it all of the same basic episodes as the original OAV with slightly different drawing and more scenarios added in. The 2ND OAV is just a few short clips. As for the encoding of them, I had no issue playing them back at and I rather like almost all of Chihiro's encodes on most of the series they do.

But I must agree with the above poster. You should watch it and give a chance and if you like, you like it. If not, then not.

I will say this anime was hilarious for the most part and I fully enjoyed it wishing there was more at the end.

kristen:
The reason why is simple. Southrop and I are working on fixing these episodes and encoding them to DVD.

kenshin-dono:

Thats just the short list. It doesn't include the partial d.loads i have from 5 years back that i never checked out, or the DVD's i saw a long time ago on fansub then bought on DVD but never watched

if i d.loaded the first few epps for each and every show ive been piling up to watch, i would never actually get to watch anything =P I look up info on ADB and google when i d.load stuff but sometimes i like to verify whats what before i actually get to d.loading. You gotta realize i dont d.load and watch this stuff immediately. Theres a backlog i gotta go through, so i get the info i can, double check here if needed, then snag what looks decent or curious.

i mean thats what this sub forum is for isn't it? Discussion/questions about anime

As far as censorship that i usually ask about; what is/isn't is sometimes hard to find out. I do a search on sak complex and google but if it doesn't turn anything up, then whats it hurt to double check here? I really hate censorship of any kind and it seems like a lot of shows are doing lame censorship of simple stuff like brief panty shots and the like, so its worth double checking

and yes its middle school, but it mentions sexual inuendo and has a mid grade ecchi tag. Just because its middleschool doesn't mean crap. Kodomo no Jikan is friggin elementry school and that looks WAY ecchi from the bits ive seen

I have not gone into the littlest detail and asked tons of question about every anime ive thought of watching, as you imply. If i had done that you would have seen a crap ton more posts as you can see from the list above. I have only bothered to ask about a few select shows that i had some lingering questions on before d.loading and throwing on the pile. Excuse me if that pisses you off

ANYWAY back to the show

I realized the tv show was an alternate telling, but i was wondering exactly what the difference is, hence my Tenchi example. Is it comparable to Tenchi OAV/Tenchi TV? Eseuldor makes it sound like they follow the plot the same then split off, but im wondering if the characters get all changed up too like Tenchi TV
Tnx for the info Eseuldor, i had read a lot of issues with the actual playback.

I had read that chihiro was working on DVD versions but that post was back in august so i had no idea if that was still going on. Any idea if it will be done in the next several months or so Kristen? I can just hold off on d.loading it till then if thats the case since im in no major rush

at least it sounds like i dont gotta worry about cut/uncut =P
