Blurays and Other Announcements

So, it may not surprise any of you that things have been a bit rough here for a while. We’ve stalled out on many shows and it’s actually become a bit of a joke. As we’ve been around now for almost 6 years, it’s just a fact that the staff of the group has aged. And with that age has brought graduations, jobs, travel, family commitments, relationships, etc. Our policy at DDY is and always has been that real life comes first. It does no one any good if a staff member loses a job or a home situation because of fansubs. But typically, this is the reason things get stalled and it’s hard to kick back into it once the roadblock is cleared. It sucks and we don’t like stalling things, but it’s just a fact of life.

Nevertheless, this is something we’re going to be trying to rectify. Unfortunately, part of that process has to be being honest with ourselves and what is actually going to get done. So, with that said, for only the second time in our history, we’re going to be dropping some shows. We’re picking up more than we’re dropping, but it’s mostly due to staff activity and interest as well as effort level.

Additionally, those of us who are actually stalling BDs are going to try to dedicate some time weekly to getting these backlog items out. From me personally, I am going to attempt to get at least one bluray volume out per week on top of airing/TV shows we’re continuing. That’s a goal though, not a promise. My job in particular has me travelling every couple weeks lately which is extremely disruptive.

Things we have not yet announced BDs for that we are picking up:

» Domestic na Kanojo (assuming they ever announce blurays so I can buy them)
» Full Metal Panic IV
» Garo Vanishing Line
» Koutetsujou no Kabaneri Movie 3: Unato Kessen
» Keijo!!!!!!!!
» Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon
» Koi wa Ameagari no You ni
» Masamune-kun no Revenge
» Shingeki no Kyoujin Season 3 Part 1
» Shoujo☆Kageki Revue Starlight

Stalled TV that is moving straight to BDs:

» Blend S
» Masamune-kun no Revenge
» Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii

Continuing BD projects:

» Ao no Exorcist: Kyouto Fujouou-hen
» Dimension W (@ OVA and BD Specials)
» Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya 3rei!!
» Gakkou Gurashi
» Kekkai Sensen and Beyond (and OVAs)
» Koe no Katachi
» Kono Bijutsubu
» Koukaku no Pandora (BD Specials for Batch)
» Love Lab
» No Game No Life (actually almost done)
» ReZero Re:Petit
» Soushin Shoujo Matoi
» Trinity Seven Movie
» Utawarerumono: Itsuwari no Kamen
» WWW.Working!!

Things that we are dropping due to inactive staff who have abandoned the work:

» Anime de Wakaru Shinryounaika
» Clockwork Planet
» Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka Gaiden: Sword Oratoria
» Ancient Magus Waifu OVAs
» Majimoji Rurumo

Things you really shouldn’t expect from us but might end up happening eventually:

» Flying Witch
» Eromanga-sensei

Finally…

This is a but further out, but we will not be picking up DanMachi Season 2 and will be picking up Re:Zero Season 2.

Also, sadly, DDY Light Novel Audio Books has had to file for bankruptcy. This is primarily due to some of our voice actors (Microsoft David and Zira) going pro and their new increased rates.

Thanks for sticking with us, guys.

    NICE! Kekkai Sensen, Dimension W , Keijo!!!!!!!! ! Good to see Masamune-kun no Revenge getting finished up!
    Surprised Sword Oratoria got dropped, but oh well it happens.

    I forget how are you handling the accents for Keijo!, Nozomi seems a bit too thick on the pgs, then again never cared for using US southern for most of the boonies/hick dailets since they always sound more Canadian to me >< (yes I have been dropped on my head alot and my brains are scrambled lol)

    Good luck on all the projects you are doing!

    • Our Keijo isn’t really a… super serious rendition of the show. It just needed so much saving and we’re having fun with it. Funnily enough, the subs are still pretty dang accurate in spirit if not in law.

      Work’s actually been happening for BDs lately so trying to get it out once vol 1 is edited (editor changed after ep 2 from TV).

      • ZippyDSMlee

        begna112: Keijo is not that bad official sub wise they lay on the accent translation a bit much but over all its not that annoying to me, T&A can be hit or miss but I like the more direct translations for attacks. But anything like that can be fixed if I get that annoyed with it, I was thinking of fooling around with the T&A subs but meh I don’t have much energy for busy work I can stand retiming TV to BD or minor fixes but eh my OCD wears me out to much these days, my main thing has always been karaoke/song subtitles and not overly super amercianized translations where things start to lose/change meaning in the culture/translation gap.

        You guys do good work and my nit picks are smaller than whats in my pants LOL

        Anyway Keijo is a fun show I doubt you will do it worse than the rest or official subs. Its always sad to end a project midway but eh thats life do what you can with what you got!

  • » Clockwork Planet
    » Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka Gaiden: Sword Oratoria

    Well, damn… Nice to see the other old projects I’m watching still get some love, though. Will have to see where I can find subs for these two now, then.

    • Yeah. It sucks, but the primary motivator behind those projects has been inactive for over a year.

      • Yeah, I know quite well first hand how projects can die with just one person gone, having seen Menclave just stop functioning when Xistance disappeared on us even with all the other staff present.

  • MantasB

    Stiiil looking forward to Koe 😪

  • Joe

    Thanks a lot for your hard work. Good see a few things on the list get some love that they’ve desperately needed. Since I haven’t seen it mentioned anywhere, I hope you don’t mind me asking: are there any plans to finish the Noragami OVAs?

    • Ah. Yeah, we’ll get those done too. I knew something would slip through the cracks. Thanks for keeping me honest. :)

  • d00d

    Nice! Looking forward to some stuff!

    How about Part 3 of SNK Lost Girls?

  • hehe

    I am happy really happy for Utawarerumono: Itsuwari no Kamen BD’s and Re:Zero Season 2.
    Didn’t expect that DanMachi Season 2 won’t be picked, but I can understand.

    All the best, the list looks quite big so don’t strain yourself.

  • tell_me

    “Also, sadly, DDY Light Novel Audio Books has had to file for bankruptcy. This is primarily due to some of our voice actors (Microsoft David and Zira) going pro and their new increased rates.”

    I had no idea, aren’t these things done by industry. Why are you guys doing it? It must have taken lots of bucks.

  • raigrex

    Since it seems like you guys are set on Re:Zero S2 (hopefully all goes well), I take it you guys will also be doing the Memory Snow OVA BD that’s coming out and the Frozen Bond OVA whenever the BD for it comes out?

  • anon

    Guys, what about new Wotaku OVA?

  • Rasparr

    Ah, Bocchi is such a great pick!

    • moozooh

      I wonder why it isn’t a collab with GJM this time. They also just announced it, but separately. Is the show worth such a multiplication of effort?

      • Period

        Both teams are being stubborn and refuse to drop it, frankly. It is what it is. At least you know the subs for the show will be really good from both groups because of it, I guess.

        • moozooh

          Right. Too bad Senryuu Shoujo didn’t get any love, though. :p

          • As an editor, the thought of Senryuu makes me want to do horrible things.

            I don’t doubt it’s a good series, but that’s an editing nightmare.

            • moozooh

              Haha, I know! Probably a typesetting nightmare as well, with text placards appearing in every other scene. But that’s exactly what would make it an interesting project where a fansubber can flex their muscle. :p

            • Well, damn… Having seen the first episode now, yeah, it certainly would be.

              Of course, that doesn’t make me any less wish for any good group to pick it up, seeing how the official translation clearly has just given up on the 5-7-5, which is a bit of a problem when it’s the main point of the series. But yeah, that clearly depends on having someone confident in their ability to make this work in every single case, and would even then be a lot of work.

        • inb4 they’re both just CR edits.

  • Igloo

    Just wanted to show appreciation for all your work during these years, even though many shows were stalled.
    GJM’s revival turned out rather fine and I hope that everything will turn out fine for you too

  • SomeDudeOnTheNet

    FMP IV: Yay! I was quite impressed by this show, actually, This brought some good depth into the characters, and was well laid out.

    Wotakoi: Glad it’s going to be continued, I enjoyed this one.

    Blend S: guilty pleasure. I can’t say from a critical standpoint that this show has any merit whatsoever, but it’s kind of fun.

    http://WWW.Working: I wondered where that had gone. It doesn’t have quite the appeal of the original, but still seems fun.

    Sword Oratiora: Too bad. I kind of like DanMachi, so I was following this. time to go torrent hunting. I don’t expect that it’ll take long to track it down somewhere.

    Well, one way or another, I’m not going anywhere, and I’ll probably download more of the stuff that you release than I don’t.

    • ZippyDSMlee

      https://nyaa.si/view/1031238 16gb 1080 with half decent subs, they are unfortunately pgs. No one seems to took the time to convert to ass so its that or HS subs unfortunately.

      Anyone know the best going pgs converter? Or is the tried and true orc still the best way to do it…

      • エラー

        Give me link to pgs only, I make them ass subtitles, but there might be errors because haven’t watched the show, but will try my best to fix.

        • ZippyDSMlee

          I can pretty much do the same, tho I would wind up ignoring or OCDing over mistakes ><, let me see if I can find what I used to rip PGS with(I forget) ah mkv clever works, er its small enough for me to toss on jumpshare as a rar file or would you rather have it as a torrent?

  • kattara

    So awesome to read this! Thanks for all your hard work, guys!

  • Rlex

    When you say Trinity Seven movie, do you mean the updated version of the first one you guys did, or the second one that just came out? Or both?

    Really sad to see Danmachi SO and S2 getting dropped though. Need to figure out a group that’s done them justice, and the movie as well…

  • MyHatsOffToYou

    More than majority of the BDs you’re gonna do, I’m more interested in if you guys would get a new “Advertisement”. The one you have is still great, but it would be nice to see some change.

  • nbdxq

    Nice!!

  • Yamsa

    Just curious, any chance the BD for Shingeki no Kyojin season 3 part 1 will be released before part 2 starts airing?

    • Period

      Not that it’s guaranteed, but those BDs are nearly complete. Expect them within the next two weeks, if I had to guess. End of the weekend at least.

  • Zohan21

    Thats a huge list. Garo is a nice surprise.

  • NtHEkNIGHT

    keep up the good work guys. all of us are supporting you and your hard work and enjoy all of your releases

  • KH91

    Have you guys considered doing Highschool DxD Hero?

  • ahriven

    any update on domekano? i see it’s on the “BD plan” but not from the “stall straight to bd”

    • So we found out on tuesday that DomeKano isn’t getting BDs. They went with a digital streaming release. We just got ahold of the first three episodes today and will be working on getting those ready, but, that said, the best video is still Amazon, so we’ll be continuing with “TV”/WEB for final version.

  • SomaHeir

    Wait Domestic na Kanojo isn’t getting BD or will it appear later down the road?

    Thanks for planning to do Kabaneri Movie 3. But I want to ask, any plans on doing Recap Movies 1 and 2 as well? Though BD’s are not yet available for some reason :\

    • Period

      Domestic na Kanojo is not getting blurays. They released it on some digital service instead in 720p. We’re mad, and fans in Japan are furious.

      It may get them down the road but nothing has been announced so far. It’s safe to assume it will never get blurays (unless they release in other countries).

      As for Kabaneri, unless there are extra scenes in the recap movies or they significantly improved the animation, we won’t be doing them.

  • Kotori-sama

    Do you guys possibly have an ETA for the Koutetsujou no Kabaneri Movie? :D
