Group: shindoi
Project(s):
Dash Kappei episodes 1 to 65
URL: locoporchicho.livejournal.com
E-Mail: locoporchicho * hotmail.com
year: 1981
genre: comedy, sports (basketball especially), some drama, ecchi (well it's nothing compared to the average or extreme anime nowadays lol. This anime aired on the 6 pm Sunday slot so it was watched by kids etc ). Most people mainly like this show for the comedy and the characters (main character is voiced by tanaka mayumi who also voices luffy in one piece. I personally think that all the voice actors fit the characters and did a great job including the dog) so even if you don't like sports anime it might be worth trying this anime out.
I know most people probably never heard of this anime. I personally think it would take 3 eps or so to gauge if you like the show. However, it is up to the person how many episodes they want to "work on/check out" to decide if they want to continue working on it or not. The midori subs are abyssmal in quality and is not the best means of gauging if you like the show or not so DO contact if you think you'd be interested in this show. Also we have the Japanese TV raws and Spanish DVDs (the huge ass files) so it'll be better than the midori releases in every way possible.
Editor - The Japanese-english translator speaks real english so it's not ENGRISH or gibberish but we still want editing so that it's free of grammatical, spelling errors, and the lines have the best wording possible and flow well. If possible send me examples of your work and about your experience or qualifications.
Fine Timer/Qcer - native English speakers only please. It's open to people with no experience. So ideally I want a timer who will also do QC. All the scripts are already timed and watchable but they have to be fine-timed.
Lastly, I am looking for
English speakers to correct entries on the language learning site lang-8.com -
you only have to know English and know it well enough to correct entries written by English language-learners. This helps with translation efforts
You can find out exactly how it helps with the fansubbing efforts upon contacting me. This is a great opportunity for anybody who wants to give back to the fansub community by helping this group with our translation efforts indirectly.
spanish to english translators (for episodes 32 and up since we can rip the subs from the spanish dvd and use the timing to our advantage. plus the spanish was translated from japanese so it is helpful. It can serve as translation check to some extent, give ideas on how to translate/interpret/infer stuff. You're going to have spanish SUBTITLES to translate from so you don't have to relisten like crazy )
