Subbing for best girl.
Thanks to Vivid for the original subs.
Encoder’s note: I **strongly** suggest picking up the 1080p version, the show really deserves it. Were it for me, there would be no nerfed 720p :V
In other news, we’re hiring! We’re in need of Translators and Translation checkers, Encoders, Timers, Typesetters and KFXers. If any of these positions appeal to you, head over to our recruitment page to get started.

never mind i didnt read the part that you using vivid, lol sorry for my stupidity
Are you guys using the revised script from the TV batch vivid released?
The batch scripts. Yes.
Thanks, guys, and Vivid for the subs<3
Thanks for picking this up! I really enjoyed Vivid’s work on the series, so it’s nice to see it getting some blu ray love. :)

Where is my 130MB hardsubbed 480p release?
Why so bloated? I’m gonna make a 40MB 240p hardsub version soon™.
The subs will make a good test for the upscaling.
Ditzy Blonde = Best Girl! =3
soo bloatgirls… i mean coalgirls picked it up aswell, someone have comparison pics?

Tenshi did a good job, but yeah, we all know him. The BD is extremely high-quality too, so differences are bound to be not that noticeable.
well… actually from comparison pics DDY release looks better for me!! there is slight graning in CG release (which would explain bigger size) which doesn’t really work for me
Ew. But Vivid’s subs were such garbage. Even if it’s the batch scripts, all they did was fix typos. Garbage is still garbage.
is that problem? extract them and use whatever subs u like duh
That’s a bit of a problem since they were the only group that did the show. But as the saying goes “just because they’re the only group doesn’t mean the subs are good”.
>>> Free stuff
>>> Still complaining…
ummm what.. use Asuka subs? no no no
Yeah Bloat – i mean Coalgirls includes the grain in their release.
Going from the posted comparison picture:
You shouldn’t really see a great difference while the movie is running.
However. If you compare the region over the left ear, you can see how the DDY version removes part of the grain an by doing this also reduces the detail level a bit. In this case the black hair lines get covered by small grey/brownish layer.
I would say:
if you’re a purist – and love the grain and money and file size is no issue (for a decent internet connect, big harddrive, NAS server whatever) take the Bloatgirls version.
if you’re an optimist and you know that you will not freeze frame every second on 70 inch, plasma screen TV or an even bigger projection wall –> the DDY release is the right choice.
You’re actually right, a few details like that go lost. I’ll probably go back to work on it for next volumes. It should be possible without keeping/adding tons of grain too.
