Hehe, loved the end of episode 7.... Isako is awesome really, although I was bit worried about how cold she was in earlier episodes. Icequeen melting!

Wao: Thanks for translating the prologue! Again google was my friend with Michiko (probably should have remembered this) but I was wondering if it's made clear at the start who's perspective the reader is viewing from? I'm tempted to guess Isako or Yasako, but then again it may be 'Kiname Yoshifumi'?

I must go and watch episode one again...

wao · 2007-07-18, 05:04

For the prologue, not really - although I'm pretty sure it's Yasako's, because Isako speaks more "confidently" and she tends to use "atashi" and not "watashi". For the rest of the novel as far as I know they largely make it clear. I remember there was a short section with Haraken speaking as well.

The second part of the prologue is just a news report thing. It was all in bold in the original.

PS: Wao, your spoilers are driving me mad. Especially the revelation about 4423. Argh, I wish I could unread that. Not that it's impossible to come up with, but still.. I wish I was more uncertain about it.

So desu ne! *has learnt even more Japanese today* Thanks, Wao! You're definitely a diamond (or gold?) mine of information on Denno Coil! I don't think the 'Kiname Yoshifumi' has featured in the anime yet (AFAIK) at least till episode 7, so I guess he/she might be an important character later?

On another note, I was looking through the news things on the manga. I'm surprised they've used such a cute chibi(?) style for the Denno Coil manga. Although I'm not against 'chibi' style, I would have preferred them to keep the anime-style artwork for the manga.

wao · 2007-07-21, 06:46

Holy asfaksfasf;, I've just watched the first half of Dennou Coil 11, and while it doesnt' seem like the animation has gotten super YET (I think Inoue will shine more in the 2nd half?), just seeing

Spoiler:

And you wouldn't believe me but if you thought Kyoko was annoying and useless until now, you might want to think again.

Daichi explaining how to get "textures" out of the dennou world was SO COOL. Seriously.

I was also surprised by how incredibly imaginative that was, smacking texels (voxels?) off of unstable areas of the world, covering your glasses to prevent world sync/updates.

The episode on the whole was a blast

wao · 2007-07-21, 21:15

Yeah. Man, I watched the second half of it and it was so

Spoiler:

Also, if next episode isn't a gag episode then I don't know what the hell it is, but LOL (screenshots).

And I just feel like laughing all over again thinking that Mr. Unfunny Onii-san/Daichi/Unchi is voiced by Real's seiyuu, and Kyoko by Pino's. Nekome by Vincent's... so he just needs to come in and be kind of 'uh... guys... uh...' and get ordered around by Unchi, and voila!

EDIT: Okay, and I guess you can't go by mentioning ep 11 without opening your jaw a little at hte list of animators there. K seriously. You look at this adn don't tell me it's bloody amazing (if you can bother to google the animators since I am lazy to provide links.)
These are the most prominent ones...

Ei Inoue
Hisashi Eguchi
Masashi Ando
Masashi Ishihama
Kazuchika Kise
Hiroyuki Aoyama
Hirofumi Suzuki
Noriyuki (or was it Tokuyuki) Matsutake
Tatsuzou Nishida
Takeshi Honda
Toshiyuki Inoue

Exactly 50% of all the key animators for this episode are either character-design and/or feature-level animators. This is like movie-level proportions.

But for some reason it felt like the animation didn't stand out as much to me as episode 10 did. Not in the sense of hey-radical-animation, but it didn't feel particularly amazing in many sections (then again, that's probably expecting too much, and it's mid-series after all). I was kinda expecting something on the level of episode 1 what with the Holy Inoue-sama actually descending to sakkan a TV episode of all things.

Or perhaps my mind was so preoccupied by the lovely animation of Paprika, which I saw the day before, and was a primarily Inoue-animated work itself (dude, you should see his running and human movements). And of course it's an unfair comparison because that's a movie that took a long time to produce...
Also, with this episode I felt like during the parts where they're supposed to show off the animation (water effects etc.) I was too concerned with the events of the episiode to properly notice what would have been the nicer bits in the episode. I guess I'll watch the episode again!

EDIT: I forgot to mention, my major complaint is that there's NOT ENOUGH MOJO
When's the last time we saw them? Honestly!~ Come back!

EDIT2: Another thing - I really lol'd at how heavily "jikkyo'd" this is on 2ch. That is people type their responses and talk during the show itself. And evidently this show gets a lot (1400 replies per minute is a helluva lot!) http://www.tv2ch.info/kakoimg/2007/0..._00-24_etv.png Take a look between 18:00 and 19:00...the first half is major and the second half with the ridiculous peaks is Dennou Coil.

EDIT3 (how many times...): I grinned when some guys found this out as well:

From episode 11. The book says "作画入門(?)ソミツオ" - Introduction to Sakuga, by (?)so Mitsuo

And I think it's published by Tokuma too! LOL.

wao · 2007-07-27, 07:43

I suppose nobody was impressed by episode 11... (well, it wasn't as good as episode 10 IMO and I figure nobody likes Daichi or Denpa very much so I s'pose it's not surprising)

Anyway, I've been unable to translate much the past few days due to certain things going on, but FINALLY! The main site actually UPDATED! With STORY SUMMARIES to boot! They even have episode 12's ttp://www.tokuma.co.jp/coil/story/12.html

Not at all. I was very impressed myself, just haven't had time to write about it.

The animation was great (duh). I loved the drawings in the dinner scene with the 2 girls at the start (Takeshi Honda I think). And the big fish was great (Kazuchika Kise? He is an expert at animating animals...). Inoue's water was excellent, and I'm sure Nishida animated some of the more impressive water scenes as well. (The bit with the jet of water shooting into the invisible cube and out the top, filling it up.....ridiculous. How does someone animate that?!). Also, the short shot of the kids running was definitely Inoue, and totally awesome. The shot of Yasako entering the frame with the pool in it was a really weighty and nice bit of movement, but my favorite shot was probably the Fish chomping the kyuu-san.

(I know, I know, I'm overly enthusiastic about animation.)

Disclaimer: I have no idea if any of the above animators did those scenes, anyone have any ideas?

And Wao, thanks for putting so much effort into this thread! It would be a lot less lively without your insight and info.

wao · 2007-07-27, 09:44

I wish I knew the same, really - for all the yapping I go on about here and elsewhere about animation, 99% of it is simply rehashing from Ben's blog and the other 1% is just me making wild guesses

Spoiler for ep 11:

And I almost feel obliged to bump this thread and put effort into it because otherwise there's pretty much nobody doing it (in terms of non-sakuga aspects)... in English, anyway.
Doesn't help that there's like about only one regularly updating blog that does the raws and it's not the most accurate of them either. Oh well. I hope more people eventually stumble upon it realising it is not a cheesy childish wreck of a show and is quite the opposite!

Vexx · 2007-07-27, 13:43

I'm enjoying this show a great deal.... I just don't have a lot to say about it because its pretty much all laid out in terms of story and the animation is just 'delicious'(?).

Risaa · 2007-07-27, 14:57

Wao, you make some pretty neat posts but I've only been skimming them -- you are way ahead of me and I often have no idea what you're talking about (unless it's something like "the animation was good right here and here"...). This is one of those series I wouldn't benefit from by watching the raw, so I've been following Ureshii's releases (darnit I'm ticked they dropped Les Misérables.... can't really blame them, but now it's too late to get any raws

). And by the time I see a new episode, it seems most people here have gotten even further so instead of breaking the discussion, I prefer to hide in my lair. I'll probably rewatch the series when it's over and make a mondo post at my blog...

But yeah... letting you know I like this series very much so far and am still following it.

orion · 2007-07-27, 15:06

Plus the subs are behind the raws so those of us who rely on them are lurking.

I'm following this series too. Thanks for the updates wao.

wao · 2007-07-28, 05:29

Ah, it's nice to know there are other people here too... I really do wish the subs were a leetle bit faster so I could have more people to talk to (also it's teh problem in every thread where the raw discussion has left the sub discussion so far behind that those who follow subs don't feel like talking about it). Argh. Here I curse my exams again that I can't consistently do anything about this.

At any rate, 12 has aired and it seems like it was a complete riot. I am trying to keep away from too many spoilers but I saw the summary-picture thing and absolutely couldn't stop myself making very... strange and funny noises. If anything I am a bit sad that Isako largely doesn't seem to appear, but I'm sure we'll see an episode mainly about her very soon. Argh, I can't wait!!

Also, it appears that episode 14 is going to be a recap episode from what I hear. Or rather a 'summary episode'. Why

Oh well. Some recaps have been pretty good actually...

(Stupid formatting errors. Also, I didn't know you could delete your own posts now!!)

MrProphet · 2007-07-28, 09:06

Didn't watch 11 yet, too busy this week. Don't worry, wao, people care. You are not alone. 8)

By the way, to make this post post a little bit less redundant, here are the ratings for Dennou Coil.

12/05/07 - Episode 01 - 3.0%
19/05/07 - Episode 02 - 2.8%
26/05/07 - Episode 03 - 1.7%
02/06/07 - Episode 04 - 2.2.%
09/06/07 - Episode 05 - 3.6%
16/06/07 - Episode 06 - 2.8%
23/06/07 - Episode 07 - ?
30/06/07 - Episode 08 - 4.0%
07/07/07 - Episode 09 - ?
14/07/07 - Episode 10 - 3.1%
21/07/07 - Episode 11 - 3.3%

Fairly weak for a prime time airing, but still respectable numbers. 8)

wao · 2007-07-28, 09:29

You're right, I kinda forgot that unlike my lazy self, other people out there are actually spending their time doing proper work and not lazing around watching anime... maybe it wouldn't feel so bad if I actually could post on 2ch or blogs or something, or alternatively get a life.

Still haven't watched 12 because it hasn't Appeared and I'm getting so tired I'll just watch it tomorrow although I'm so keen on watching it (and I think I've half spoiled myself for the episode reading through the damned thread... seems like if there's any Civ players here you'll find this episode highly interesting.)

Also, I keep hearing on some COil and TV rating threads that NHK's ratings are usually very misrepresentative of actual viewership although I have no idea why and how. It seems to be popular enough though. I also heard Kio Shimoku (the Genshiken mangaka) mentioned that Coil was "suteki" in the latest issue of Afternoon although again, I have no way of checking and am too lazy to.

I guess I'll sleep! Have a random spoiler pic from 12 that will make you go a little WTF (not responsible for any keyboard damage through spilt beverages)

Spoiler for ep 12:

Oh yeah, it seems like anon's been subbing this since evidently someone's not happy with the speed of subbing. Whoever you are anon, thank you! I hope it means people can get to watch the greatness of episode 10 soon.

Although I have no idea what their quality is like because I'm out of disk space and you can fill in the rest (hint: laziness). Anyone who happens to flutter by this thread and has watched it...?

Jimmy C · 2007-07-28, 10:55

I've just seen anon's ep8 sub. Some mistakes here and there, and it looks like they're not sticking with the HD videos. But bearable until Ureshii catches up. And the mistakes are correctable since it's a softsub.

flick · 2007-07-28, 11:41

I was about to ask about the quality of the 'Anon' subs. Thanks, Jimmy!

If my patience really wears thin (can hardly wait tbh), I'll be taking up the anon subs until Ureshii catches up as well!

leongsh · 2007-07-28, 16:23

Totally blown away by Episode 12. It's so damn brilliant that to even hide what happens in this episode behind multiple spoilers would be a disservice as this episode needs to be watched unknown. It's absolutely hilarious and yet presents us with something mindblowing.

flick · 2007-07-28, 17:31

Anonymous have released episodes 8-10! So tempting, especially after wao's enthusiastic comments about episode 10!

Seriously. You physically hit the border between an old and new cyber-space, and the lag in updating causes an actual piece of the virtual texture to come off, and you can use that to feed Illegals (strangely, they like the red ones and not the black ones...). And the seriously cool part was how it can literally be behind postboxes and other things and in completely weird places. Do you know how awesome this is? It's really, really making use of the entire background - it's like how in a really well-planned and super-detailed game, you can go behind some completely nondescript sign and find a message left by someone else or something. I really loved the part where they were doing their hilarious routine of trying to get one out and this time Satchii was just quietly standing there and they had been hitting it instead. God, I laughed out loud so hard! Don't you just love that incredibly "in ur domainz lurkin' behind u" kind of feel Satchii has? Turn around and it's behind you! Put on your specs and it's suddenly about to zap you! I have never felt this sort of genuine awesome feeling for so long with anime... And the water that grows around the Illegal as it continues to grow is actually old space. And none of us - I don't think even the Japanese posters considered this, but - ever realised that steam and fog - i.e. the signal that the cyberspace sends when there is old, broken or unstable cyberspace - is actually the gaseous form of water? See the link? Wow. I just thought it was really cool. (Fine, I'm a fangirl, so sue me.)

wao OK. Join Date: Nov 2003 Location: The Fields of High Attus Age: 34	Yeah. Man, I watched the second half of it and it was so Spoiler: grin-inducing - damn, Fumie is starting to learn from Isako! And everyone was being so "bitchplz" today I couldn't stop laughing. And yet while it seemed to come across in a somewhat 'harmless' way, it felt like real danger could be lurking around the corner. Also, I like how the housewife doing her chores was 100% oblivious to the fact that there were bloody cubes of water in the sky simply because she didn't have spectacles on. While they didn't particularly show the city going in a riot or anything - after all, it's in the cyber world, it's just for fun and can only be digital/visual, it's probably some big show and shouldn't be really affecting us (or so the adults would think, I guess) - it'll definitely be noticed by the others. Even Isako and co. (who didn't appear for long) had noticed it as well, but I'm intrigued by ehr statement that they're not the type of Illegal she's looking for. Certainly enough, the ones she extracted kirabugs from were fuzzy and blob-like, and had humanoid figures. But this was fish-shaped... Again, I am also intrigued by how Kyoko is also becoming more important... See, in the novel she has spectacles made of mere glass, yet she's very attuned to the dennou world and seems to be able to pick up Densuke, see Illegals etc. just as well as her sister. Here of course I think her specs are real dennou megane, but she seems to be able to hear electronic waves or something... She can notice the smallest of bugs. And is it a coincidence that she hates red things but those fish-shaped Illegals, for some unguessable reason, love them? Also, if next episode isn't a gag episode then I don't know what the hell it is, but LOL (screenshots). And I just feel like laughing all over again thinking that Mr. Unfunny Onii-san/Daichi/Unchi is voiced by Real's seiyuu, and Kyoko by Pino's.

Still haven't watched 12 because it hasn't Appeared and I'm getting so tired I'll just watch it tomorrow although I'm so keen on watching it (and I think I've half spoiled myself for the episode reading through the damned thread... seems like if there's any Civ players here you'll find this episode highly interesting.) Also, I keep hearing on some COil and TV rating threads that NHK's ratings are usually very misrepresentative of actual viewership although I have no idea why and how. It seems to be popular enough though. I also heard Kio Shimoku (the Genshiken mangaka) mentioned that Coil was "suteki" in the latest issue of Afternoon although again, I have no way of checking and am too lazy to. I guess I'll sleep! Have a random spoiler pic from 12 that will make you go a little WTF (not responsible for any keyboard damage through spilt beverages) Spoiler for ep 12: 4: WHAT DO YOU MEAN HARRY DOESN'T DIE?!! M: well, that's the last page of the .pdf Oh yeah, it seems like anon's been subbing this since evidently someone's not happy with the speed of subbing. Whoever you are anon, thank you! I hope it means people can get to watch the greatness of episode 10 soon. Although I have no idea what their quality is like because I'm out of disk space and you can fill in the rest (hint: laziness). Anyone who happens to flutter by this thread and has watched it...? __________________ Thanks for the fish

It's so damn brilliant that to even hide what happens in this episode behind multiple spoilers would be a disservice as this episode needs to be watched unknown. It's absolutely hilarious and yet presents us with something mindblowing.
