How did Doki t/l that (if anyone downloaded their release) ?

Anyways, I can understand why they didn't, as duckroll from GAF said:

I can understand why they didn't though, since it's rather hard to explain in English. But I'm sure there are enough fans here who would care ... But as such, it is something which cannot really be translated in subtitles without killing the pace of the episode.
You'd have to fill the screen with t/l notes to properly explain it. I just wish they chose a better word to change it to, though.

Old fansubs used to add important long-to-read TL at the beginning or end of the episode. They should do that, if it's really needed.

I remember those, ahh good old days of proper translations works, people actually spent a lot of time to error-proof releases and do proper jobs on explaining mysterious stuff, not like todays speed subs or click-psychos.

you know, that reminds me of when i watched my download of AIR by Koi subs. Even though you would easily be able to tell if a sh*tstorm was ensuing via the TL notes, it really helped to clarify things. man, i think im gonna rewatch AIR sometime in the near future...

actually, now that i think about it, those TL notes really helped a lot because at that point of me watching air, i was just getting into anime and the TL notes really helped me to get situated with anime trends and general japanese customs. also, i remember never seeing any group do that after finishing air. quite a shame.

that scene was epic :D

maybe there was consequence and redemption ?

at any rate, each episode is better than the previous one.

If you're expecting sexytime ( ;D ), that's not what this is. It's played for laughs.

Great episode, really nice way to add some fan service without overdoing it with pointless (censored) nudity or panyshots.

I'm surprised the show gets better every episode
Dont know what to put here

That was sooo funny. This show is one of those perfect slice of life animes. It's really good story but without getting too unrealistic.

BTW, this was episode 3... of a 26 episode series, yet it has the visual quality of an OVA with the story of a 12 episode series... what a good show. :)

Regardless of whether it's 720p or 1080p native... I only got a 1376 by 768 (essentially 720p) screen to view it on. I'll definitely get the 1080p just so when I do see this down the line whenever I do have a 1080p (or ZOMBG 2160p!) TV, I'll be able to watch it in it's true glory.

I didn't laugh. All I could think was "SLUT!"
Oh, and Stockholm Syndrome.

Go to /a/, you'd fit right in  ;D . If there's one thing those idiots can all agree on, it's that Ohana's a slut.

This.
