The only non-scrub of an older Rider that's moving forward regularly that I know of is Sub-Vent's Ryuki. There was a Faiz resub that was annoying the poo poo out of me for not being careful about use of FortMax's 60fps raws, but was otherwise fine. It isn't moving super fast though. Blade is probably the most targeted series for re-release, but everyone collapses under the weight of Onduru.

last i knew someone was doing kabuto but i think that a) might have stalled b) might have been gekiknight

how are imagination station now that he has an actual translator, i wanted to check out abaranger but lol gekiknight

I didn't find much problem with them, it still got the point across pretty well. At worst, it was a much more coherant version of the existing HK subs of the series .

Not kyuute
Blade needs new subs/scrubs not just because the video quality of the existing ones is loving atrocious, but because there are some serious garbled plot points, at least early on. (Still not quite finished watching Blade, the big reveals towards the end also seem kind of incoherent and screwy, and I'm not sure if it's because the subs are wrong or if the reveal is incoherent and screwy.) I know that a clearer sub job would make Tachibana's deal a lot more clear, early on. Also, for the first bunch of episodes the title song's translation is so inaccurate that it might as well not be there.

Like, Blade is a good enough show that I am willing to put up with this crap. Den-O was not a good enough show for me to tolerate the multicolored Ore Sanjou crapfest that the subs were. Everyone draws their line somewhere different, and I will tolerate subs that are lacking in grace but at least try to get it right more than I'll tolerate completely loving it up or searing my eyeballs.

And sometimes I'll just suck it up and grab TV-N's version of a movie or special because Over Time may be great, but they are the pits about subbing side stuff in a timely fashion.

Has anyone thought of starting a new thread?

The OP hasn't been updated in 2 years and could really use it.


Seems like every week or two someone pops up to say they've just gotten into Riders / Sentais / Ultramans / Toku-in-general and ask for some recommendations and the OP does them no favors.

i've thought about doing it a few times but without nearly as much detail in hte list, just "this is subbed/being subbed by some people"

With the exception of Drive I don't really thing anything relating to newbie friendly shows has changed in the past two years. I still give out W/OOO as the KR for newbies to watch and Zyu and Shinken as the shows for Sentai. I'd do the exact same two years ago. I'm anti-new thread and see no reason to do it.

edit: Its not like Chibs is inactive either. If this really was a going concern someone could just PM him the new content.

O-T is better than TVN, there's no denying that. However there are people in this very thread who say that you'd be better off watching raws than watching TVN for stuff that doesn't have alternate translations available. Stuff like that is simply bullshit. If you never plan on watching this stuff again (and lets be honest here, most people never rewatch a show) then you'd be far better off watching TVN and getting 98% of things translated correctly than watching raw and having to guess on everything.

This can't be emphasized enough. Every few weeks it seems people lose their minds and fill the thread with the same hyperbole about TV-Nihon, when they'd be better off going about their own business and ignoring they exist.

I agree, we should ignore TVN.

It's a shame onoretvn stopped updating. I'm sure there's still some stuff from TVN that's relatively egregious that they've put out lately.
