Honobono has started subbing Hime-chan's Ribbon--this made my day
This is a classic mahou shoujo series, I have it on VHS sub but was wondering if anyone would ever fansub the whole series. Hime-chan is great as the tomboy-turned-mahou-shoujo, and the rest of the cast is really good too (even if at times I want to strangle Chappi's seiyuu). There's a short synopsis of the plot up at Wikipedia. Thanks to everyone at Honobono for picking this up, I think this is one of the more underrated series out there. |

And so it showed up. Yes, I saw Honobono took it, and I even watched their first release, which indeed I will collect. But still I'm attached to the italian vhs I still jealously own This is My favourite anime series ever! I copy and past a review on it that I have just happened to wrote Covered with spoiler, although it's not very spoilering, because I've already seen it all (many times) Spoiler for Hime Chan no Ribon Overall Review:
So if there are some Himeko and Pokota fans around, please show up and let's discuss a bit about this imho immensely amazing show.

Indeed, this is a great series. Although I only read the manga till chapter 8 of volume 2 (there's no more scanlations ), from what I read, it's VERY good. I always liked mahou shoujo and romance anime, and this one didn't disapoint me. (
And that would be very difficult to happen, I like almost everything. ) Like most shoujos (if not all), the characters' design is very detailed and pretty, and, as mentioned before, the characters' personalities and relationships are very well developed. And I only read till chapter 8! What's more in store? Can't wait to find out. To think I actually downloaded from e-mule eps 2-4 (I already had ep 1 from Solar-Genbu) of a spanish fansubber: saehara fansubs. They actually bought the R2 DVDs, it had very good video quality (and audio quality from time to time) - a LOT more than Tomodachi's releases. I'm not so sure about the spanish translation quality, though. Spanish subs should be fine to me (it's the country next to mine), but I prefer english subs: I'm more used to them. Anyway, all this to be able to see this great anime.

Episode 3 has been recently released, and what great news this is.
The only "weird" thing is that the audio quality has decreased comparing to eps 1 and 2. Did the DVDs (from whatever source) already had that poor audio? Because the DVD releases from a spanish fansub gropu (saehara fansubs) who had bought the R2 DVDs also had this "problem".

Hehe, actually I downloaded an older set of subs of Hime-chan's Ribbon (all episodes) about a year ago (that batch was in fact a mix of low quality AVI's and RMVB's). But now that Honobono is making new subs out of the DVD version, I'm replacing the old one with this new set.

Hm... it's been a long time since someone posted here...
(And I don't want to discriminate honobono's Hime-chan no Ribbon release by only posting on Hikari no Densetsu thread. j/k) Episode 16 was released a few days ago, which confirms the slow yet steady pace of the fansubbing. Ike ike, honobono!! Only 45 more to go!! Unfortunately, most people seem to fail to notice this great series... The same thing happens with Touch, Hiatari Ryoukou, Hikari no Densetsu, and everything else older than 2000 or so. I guess I'll continue to play the role as the "old-school supporter". Ganbare!!

To say the truth, I've seen the series so many times, that I'm downloading but not watching the subs. I've always the italian version on videotapes if I want to rewatch.
Anyway, I think the last released was episode 15. After Pokota's mountain adventure, with episode 16 a new arc starts. To the new watchers, withouth revealing anything, just let me say that after a lot of lighthearted slice of life, at this point of the show something huge is behind the corner...

Once again I've seem to have stumbled onto another series. After seeing the posts in this thread I will consider watching this series. A shame it never got licensed. btw, I don't know whether to go for the DVD ones or the batch of all 61 episodes.

It's great to see someone doing a new fansub off of the DVD masters , since it looks like this show will get licensed when pokotas fly.
This is in my top three fav anime people. SERIOUSLY. THIS ANIME ROCKS. I can't even put my thumb on what about it just so awesome. As another poster said, it is just a joy to watch. It will be great to be able to replace my old VHS fansubs with "forever" digisubs. As my husband said, "Now they won't disappear into the void." |
