Hello, guys and gals. Have you missed seeing your favorite anime released? As you might understand, there are several reasons for this. However, nothing is dropped just yet; we just need your help, and to help you can either join our team or donate (do so by clicking on the donate button on the frontpage).

Here is a more detailed list projects that need more staffers:

• Ashita no Joe
1 translator and 1 quality checker.

• Major season 4
1 quality checker.

• The Prince of Tennis Finals
1 editor and 1 quality checker. Note: Solo is supposed to edit this, but is quite busy in real life, so a full time editor here would be good so he only has to apply QC reports.

• OAV projects
1 quality checker.

Additional comments: Should we not get a translator for Ashita no Joe, it will stay on stalled forever, and eventually get dropped. Same goes for the CR licensed series after the episode we currently have translated.

And now... “the story behind.”
First of all, Saizen has had no “real” translator in over a year, or possibly even longer. The only reason we have managed to keep going, has been because of joints, and nice persons from other groups pitching in with a hand or two when needed. All the positions were covered to somehow do Hajime No Ippo at a reasonable speed, but as you might have noticed, everything else was pretty much stalled.

You might wonder why things were stalled? “Why did they not work on all the projects?” Well, to be honest, most fan subbers are humans, and humans do free stuff because they enjoy doing it. So if they do not enjoy doing it, they will not do it. Hence nothing else than Ippo got worked on because there was not enough people enjoying the other projects enough to get them moving.

Right now we are trying to get everything moving; we have gotten ourselves a translation checker (note checker), encoder and typesetter for Ashita no Joe. For those who wonder about Prince of Tennis, the project will probably resume since we now have a translation offer for it. We will also finish season 4 of major sometime with the editing help of Urexis and Yahzee. And lastly, no, the CR show is not dropped as it has gotten a new encoder. Oh, and before I forget, Aoki Densetsu Shoot movie and Futatsu no Kurumi are not dropped.

Do you think all of this sounds like great news and wonder why we are still missing staff?
Well, to be honest, Solo is quite busy with real life, AMS is working 50 hours a week, studying 30, and obviously needs the rest of his time to live. Falsedawn is just moving on and looking forward towards a career.
