Eh? those kind of shows are all shown in prime time. I think he was referring to those teen dramas like Dawsons Creek etc.

which group is better for downloading this anime? lunar or anbu?

Meier · 2004-06-15, 02:50

I would recommend that you download a.f.k.'s release -- theyre one of the best quality fansubbers around and typically if they're doing a show, it's the one to get (re: Kenran as well this season).

Kimura-sensei · 2004-06-16, 01:46

I'd say Aone, but then again, I'm biased...

dreamless · 2004-06-16, 01:59

This series scare me a lot... and this is very rare for me... I'm the type who can play Fatal Frame all alone at night with lights off, and those supposedly thriller anime like Le Portrait de Petit Cossette or Boogiepop Phantom don't do a thing to me... but this one, this one is simply too scary for me to continue watching... It sends a chill down my spine everytime I saw Yuzu...

Lucier · 2004-06-16, 02:21

I'd vote for lunar's as the best! (but that's cause I'm translating it...)

Either ours or AFK's is good choice though.
I think both of us have done a great job on this series.

If you want a more free translation, I'd take AFK's...
If you'd prefer a more literal translation, I'd take ours...

I have a good amount of respect for AFK, it's too bad we didn't joint on this project ^_^...

Reguardless of which group, I'd think you should watch the series ^_^

SleeplessHeart · 2004-06-16, 02:32

I give a thumb up to Lunar's releases too.
It is a joy to see their precise but not wordy translation.
Lunar's only weakness is the quality of the picture, it is a bit blurry.

Aishiteruze Baby ♡

Spoiler for screenshots episode 10:

***relentlessflame*** · 2004-06-17, 02:22

I don't know if this really counts as a spoiler, but what the heck.

Spoiler for the development of the main characters:

All in all, these have gotta be some of the most interesting and well-done main characters I have ever seen in anime, and the interchange between them provides a never-ending amount of possibilities. Even the supporting cast adds a great deal to the dynamic of the show. This is an anime that has quickly become one of my favorites - best of the season as far as I'm concerned. For character-based emotional drama, it doesn't get much better than this ("realistic" or not). Can't wait 'till next week!

Episode 11 is out from Lunar and a.f.k.

Deacon_Frost · 2004-06-21, 12:13

I saw on animedaisuki's site that this is slated for only 13 episodes.

This is way too short to be a 13 episode series. I just don't see how they will close this out in two episodes.

That's not how many episodes Aishiteruze Baby will be. That is what episode will air this week. The site is a little slow with the updates episode 12 will air this week.

It'll be interesting how their relationship will grow from here. ^^

Animax has a TV schedule up to ep 16 now (with the episode titles). I wonder if this'll be a 26 ep series...

Saitou00 · 2004-06-22, 10:52

I'm really liking this anime so far.

When Yuzuyu said she wanted to keep Kippei for herself, it kinda reminded me of how my cousin always want to be with her dad and nobody else.

This is where I stopped reading the manga, so I'll be more eager to wait every week for another episode.

Deacon_Frost · 2004-06-22, 11:07

How can anything so cliched and mediocre in production values be this amusing and entertaining.

Hope they go for 24 or 26 episodes, anything longer than that is overkill.

MoonsaultAcE · 2004-06-23, 07:16

I think a.f.k. is the best fansub because I didn't like the font-color of the others.

*relentlessflame* 　 Administrator Join Date: Dec 2003 Age: 41	I don't know if this really counts as a spoiler, but what the heck. Spoiler for the development of the main characters: Gotta give credit where credit is due. Although Kokoro acts all tough and assertive, she has got to be one of the least assertive characters I have ever seen. She just so incredibly fragile and hurt inside, it's sometimes painful to watch. Yuzuyu continually amazes me with her incredible perceptiveness -- for such a young kid, she is in some ways more perceptive and honest than either Kippei or Kokoro - she just doesn't understand it sometimes. Must be overwealming for her. And of course, Kippei is in this emotional fog but has moments of incredible wisdom - sometimes he manages to do and say exactly the right thing at exactly the right time - sometimes it's dumb luck, but sometimes it's a flash of genius. All in all, these have gotta be some of the most interesting and well-done main characters I have ever seen in anime, and the interchange between them provides a never-ending amount of possibilities. Even the supporting cast adds a great deal to the dynamic of the show. This is an anime that has quickly become one of my favorites - best of the season as far as I'm concerned.

Itlandm Porcupine Join Date: Jan 2003 Location: Norway Age: 65	Finally episode 11! Stayed up till 3AM to get it, prepping myself with my love song collection. Here we go! Spoiler: Kokoro says she can do fine without Kippei, and I would almost have believed her if not for the short scene after the ending, which seems to say otherwise. But I am not so sure Kippei can manage without her. He had the most peculiar expression on his face, and I think the sneaking a kiss talk is just cover for his deeper need. He is definitely missing her already. I wonder if Kokoro and Yuzuyu will ever get along like they do in the song sequences. I have noticed that songs do not always exactly portray the anime ... some do, but some are more just showing off the crew, and this could look like one of them.

Secca nya` Artist Join Date: Feb 2004	Spoiler for ep 11: I tought it was interesting after Yuzuyu understand how Kippei feel about Kokoro, she decided to avoid Kippei so she won't be a bother anymore for Kippei. Meanwhile Kokoro were doing the same thing by trying to avoid Kippei and so she won't become a bother for Yuzuyu. It's kinda painful watching them at the moment. A tought came across my mind too, if Yuzuyu have met Kokoro first. I think the two would get along really well too because they seems to share alot of thing in common. Kokoro also becomes really gentle whenever she's around Yuzuyu. It'll be interesting how their relationship will grow from here. ^^
