Shinkun has been doing some terrific work of late. I started with Genji; now he offers us the rest of Mouryou no Hako. I've also watched a couple of episodes of Hidamari no Ki; that's a pretty interesting show as well. I don't know how he's found the time to start subbing Tokyo Magnitude 8.0, but he has! I've quickly grown to respect his work. I need to spread some rep around before I can give Shinkun more, so I leave it up to the rest of you for now!

So glad the subbing for this is back on done apparently, there are only 12 epis right? By the grace of kami I actually remembered most of what had happened after I also put the show on hiatus after I watched epi 6. On 10 at the moment and still loving every minute of it. Question who's the seiyuu for Kyougokudou?
Edit: my bad there are 13 epis so one more to go!

I've been wondering that myself actually. Such a strong, powerful voice.
& yeah one more episode to go. Though i will say that episode 12 is easily the best episode of the series, Kyougokudou at his complete best. Let's see if the last episode can top it.

Sorry if this is a bit off-topic, but the fist novel of the Kyogokudou series, "The summer of the Ubume", has been released in english about a month ago. I definitely recommend it to who liked the anime series; besides being an interesting story in itself, there is a lot of background information about the characters (I found the bits about Enokizu particularly interesting)
I really hope they'll translate Mouryou no hako too; I bought the japanese novel some time ago, but it's so long that I don't think I'll ever have the courage to start reading it in japanese. Since there is a few key differences between the story told in the anime and in the live action movie, I'm really curious to find out which one was actually following the novel |

This title is beautiful to look at but it's downright boring. I don't care what happens to any of the characters, and it's such a waste because it's been a while since I have seen anything so beautiful looking. The backdrops and character designs are gorgeous but the story -- less so.
When is 13 coming out though -- I want to see the ending irregardless. |

I don't think it is boring at all. In fact I found the anime very intriguing and I really want to know what it is going on. That being said I stopped at episode 6 because the subs were so slow (and it's not the type of series you want to wait a long time between episodes because it is easy to forget all the details).

Aoi seems to be back from hiatus, though there's no indication which of their current series will show up soon. I'm hoping we'll see episode 13 of this show followed by a couple of new episodes of Hidamari no Ki.
I sympathize a bit with MikaMiaka. The show got very "talky" in the second half with long disquisitions on mysticism, Onmyougi and the like. I enjoy shows with a substantial dose of Japanese culture, but even I found Hako a bit yawn-inducing at times. That doesn't mean I'm not looking forward to seeing a subtitled version of episode 13.

I checked in at Aoi the other day and was dismayed that their site had disappeared. I began to fear we'd never see episode 13 of Hako (or more episodes of Hidamari no Ki for that matter). Today I checked again and they're back online; the updated projects page reports:
Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas – Meiou Shinwa – Status: Ongoing Les Miserables: Shoujo Cosette – Status: Ongoing Mouryo no Hako - Status: Ongoing Hidamari no Ki – Status: Ongoing, kind of stalled So I haven't given up hope that Aoi will deliver the final chapter of this intriguing series.

Aoi has yet to release subs for any more series since August, so I'm becoming more and more pessimistic that a complete version of this show will ever appear. I had some hope we'd see a well-established group like Live-eviL, gg, or Frostii take this show on when it was first released, but it just seems to have fallen between the cracks. Please, subbers, won't one of you pick this up, even if it's just for the one remaining episode?
