oh ok
I think releasing an episode a month is a pretty bad definition of "active", though. Any three old schmucks can do that, no matter how retired and bitter they are. Here's my take on the list:
1. ANBU (21.04.2002)
So slowking.tiff that BDrip groups are frequently faster. Hence, nobody cares.
2. Live-Evil (21.05.2002)
Only subs ancient shit nobody cares about, and at a rate of one episode a quarter. Nobody cares.
3. AnimeOne (17.07.2002)
Actually subbed a weekly show (although it was beetrain shit) and finished it as late as autumn 2010. That's better than most of the others in this list, but still doesn't make them very relevant.
4. Anime-kraze (27.08.2002)
Manages (impressively, I might add) to be even more slowking.tiff.jpg.exe.bat.png.gif than ANBU. In fact they are so slow that they haven't even caught on to the fact that the one show they seem to be fansubbing right now is licensed in the US, with the first DVD coming out in less than a month from now. They just released the next to last episode, but at the rate they're going, Viz will have released all the DVD's before they're done with the last one.
5. Static Subs (08.07.2003)
Only subs shit shows, but they're popular shit shows, and they actually manage to have multiple projects going at once, even if they're p slow at it by today's standards. That alone makes them more relevant than pretty much anybody else on this list. At least people probably won't ask you "who?" when you mention the name.
6. SD Project (21.10.2003)
Technically sorta active, but only subs old shit nobody cares about or new remakes of old shit nobody cares about. Not very relevant.
7. Central Anime (01.01.2004)
Would be more relevant if they actually subbed anything weekly, especially since they can actually encode now. Not dead though, and older than dirt. You gotta give 'em some respect even if they're pretty far into the "who?" zone now.
8. Anime-Destiny (07.12.2004)
Doesn't seem to be very active in fansubbing, and Bakuman is a joke of a show that has already faded into filler obscurity. Not relevant.
9. Saizen (09.07.2004)
Sort of active and actually talks about picking up new shows, but unfortunately nobody cares about sports anime. Not relevant.
10. Dattebayo (22.10.2004)
Used to be very relevant, but then they decided to only sub new shit nobody watches and old shit nobody cares about for some reason. Not relevant anymore.
