I just bought the box set for the first one this weekend. I got about 3 disks to go. It's really funny so far. The fights could be better but I am assuming they will get so. My only beef is that the main character is doing the whole reluctant hero routine. I hate that. It is overdone and not really beleivable as most people would not turn down powers.

errrr?
I loved Jubei 1 but Jubei 2 just turned me off.....I dunno what it is though. I think its the russian parts and the group i guess. The animation also looks a lot like it was crappier than the first one. Ill see in future episodes.
Off topic: Suggestions for the sub group I think the group needs better timing on the subtitles and need to subtitle the previews. Also the font shouldnt be white-ish. Sometimes very hard to read. Maybe the traditional yellowish orange like how TW did the early episodes of Naruto. Of course you dont need to follow these sugguestion because you guys are new to fansubbing if my memory serves me. |

I just watched the first episode from Shinsen. I only watched the first two or so episodes of the first series, but not much seems to be changed. It seems they still hit on the same puns/jokes, but the story seems interesting.
Also, I noticed a lot of translation errors in the version I watched. For example, at 4:26 Jubei says "tetsuya?" which was mistranslated as "Need help?". It really means "all-nighter". Then at 4:29 the "muda tetsuya" was mistranslated as "No use helping?" but it really means "A useless all-nighter?" And there were several other small errors I noticed. Not that I'm complaining though. I'm glad this series has finally gotten someone to sub it |

The animation to me, was passable enough, but I do miss the old transformation sequence. Jubei-chan looks cool and so does the Siberian Yagyu. Music is merely acceptable. Story-wise, we'll see where this goes, since I need to give it more time to develop. Anybody else notice a different voice for Shiro (her sempai) than the original? also, how many episodes is this? anyone know? |

I think the one done by IY-Anime was better then the one from Shinsen & SD. I found the translation to be better and the Fonts Subs readability and such to be alot better. Though Shinsen & SD did a good job as well, but I would go with IY-Anime thats the Copy I am Keeping.

How come in a Jubei-chan's thread nobody has mentioned her amazing bon-bons? In the first series, they were almost a character on their own right
Having decided to go with Solar's version, I still have not seen any episode, hoy do you rate it on the spheroid-plus-elastic-and-bouncy-yet-firm scale? |

Just saw the solar version of the 2nd episode and I must, they are doing a tremendous job. I had a hunch that Freisha and Jiyu were speaking in Korean a couple of times but I wasn't able to confirm this. I thought fansubbers would simply mistaken this as another Russian saying but they nailed the translation right.
I wonder where exactly Freisha is from. She can speak Russian and Korean and as far as I can remember these two contries do not connect with each other. |

Wow, I cant believe I waited so long to watch this show. I thought it was great. So far better than the first series. Jubei 2 was definitely funny and I like Freisha's voice. I couldnt stop lauging when she did the Rei-kun Kodacha joke and lets not forget the hunter x hunter joke. People are crazy thinking the animation was better in the first series. I thought the fight scenes were very crisp and well animated.
Kudos to Solar for their notes and the voice actors. Even though they were just short phrases, I understood their Korean. Last edited by Go-lytely; 2004-02-23 at 20:39. |
