GSA Overview 2


GSA Overview 2
Due to the positive responses I got, I decided to write a follow-up to my first post. This time with a slightly different structure, one that might work better. This time I’m going to run down the last 2 weeks day by day, race by race. Due to Smash.gg not being very nice to get data from I won’t be incorporating much in-depth stats. I hope y’all like it. Small note, I wrote the last post on the 24th, but couldn't incorperate any of the statistics of that day, that's why I'm starting here.

February 24th
On the 24th 6 matches were played over 5 leagues. To start the day Cheese and Toastrider91 faced of in the first division of the 70 star league. After 48 minutes and 50 seconds of delightful commentary by the team of Puncayshun and Dwhatever, Toastrider took the win. A minute and 25 seconds later Cheese ended his run, taking 11 out of the 20 additional points. This resulted in 49 points for Toastrider, and 11 for Cheese. This may certainly be seen as an upset, as the odds favoured Cheese. This was Cheese’s second loss over the season.

Up next Toastrider91 was scheduled again to fight for points, however this time in Mario Kart: Double Dash. Sadly Toastrider91 dropped out of the MKDD league, mainly because he couldn’t warm-up and practice next to Super Mario 64. His replacement is JHawk, he faced off against the undefeated No. 2 in the league GoombaNL. GoombaNL won the game 12-1. With this win he reclaimed first place in the tournament, a spot he’s held ever since.

Following this there was some Super Mario Odyssey action, SuisagaW vs. Chaospringle. The race was commentated by Flamefuser and Cheesejamez, two knowledgeable players of the game. Chaospringle took the win with a 1:01:56.77, while Suisaga clocked in with a 1:03 flat. Due to this Chaos was awarded 40 points plus an additional 7 points for the time difference, while Suisaga took 13 points. This brought Chaos’ total to 240 points, breaking the tie he had with Suisaga for 4th place.

Next was a Division 2 match in the 70 Star league where 3rd DrogieSR and Tabascoth faced off. Tabascoth took the win in 51:30, while DrogieSR finished with a 51:39. This gave Drogie 19 out of the 20 extra points, the optimal amount in a loss. Not much is to be said about this race, solid times from both, decent commentary.

The next run was also in the 2nd Division. Copitz and 2nd place in the league Protoman fought for 60 points. Protoman decisively won the race in 51:37 compared to Copitz’s 53:29. Protoman got 52 points, Copitz took 8, this elevated Protoman temporarily to first place. This place would be taken from him the following week be a rather surprising participant.

Lastly Cheese and Akki squared off for bragging rights, the first place and the undefeated streak in the 16 star league. The first game saw Cheese PB’ing and taking the win. 1-0 for Cheese. Then being virtually tied the whole race the climax came down to the last 5 minutes. Akki eventually took the lead in BitS, and took the win with a 30 second difference tieing the score 1-1. The last race was a 15:37 for Akki, which Cheese could not beat. 1-2 for Akki, the undefeated streak lives. This brings Akki to 21 points, and secures him first place for at least 1 more round as he’s now 4 points ahead of Binny.

GSA Overview 25/02/2019

GSA Overview: 25th of February by BaxterV
GSA (Global Speedrun Association) is a speedgaming organization, that hosts near daily races, that made it’s rise in 2018. Therefore the organization has much work to do to professionalize their stream. We’ve seen over the last couple of weeks that banners have been added to race VOD’s, more games were announced to get their own division, details about the first PACE event were revealed, etc. However the overall standings have not been discussed much. This came as a surprise as we’re past halfway with the leagues. So let’s not waste any more time and dive right into this.

Super Mario 64 70 Star Division 1
Because there are 2 divisions in 70 Star, and a 16 star league, we’re spreading them out a little. To start off, Puncayshun, the current World Record holder of this category, has a sizeable lead. He’s earned himself 329 points over, moreover he’s undefeated. Runner-up is Toastrider91, with 206 points. His only loss was to Dwathever, who is in 3rd place with just 1 point less. He won all of his matches except the one with Puncayshun. 4th is Cheese, having lost a match to Toastrider91 and Liamkings. Beneath Cheese are Binny, Weege14, Benjii64 and Paracusia to close off the top 8.

Puncayshun has clearly made an impact on the competition. His 123 point lead makes him a good contender for the number 1 spot, which would set him up to play the player in 8th place, currently that is Paracusia. With still half of the season to go, anything can happen, even Puncayshun could be overthrown. In the upcoming weeks we’ll see how Puncayshun can manage, and if he will keep the undefeated streak alive.

Also we have to look at the bottom 3 playes, which are not guaranteed a spot in Division 1 next year. Currently V1RO, RockChalk19 and Heisenburger make up the bottom of the bracket. It should be mentioned not everyone has played their 6th game as of writing this, V1RO earned a victory over Heisenburger and has yet to play his 6th game. RockChalk also earned a victory over Heisenburger, and also has yet to play his 6th game. Heisenburger himself hasn’t earned a victory yet, which would mean he is going to play the Division 2’s 1st place.

Again nothing is set in stone, but Heisenburger seems to have ran out of luck as his remaining 5 games are against the higher ranked players. He is going to play against Liamkings, who is in 9th place, this match will most likely seal his fate in terms of standings this season. With that being said we will keep a close look at the league as it roles on.

Mario Kart: Double Dash Time Trials
For those not aware, this league format is a little different. If it’s not clear how the structure is set-up after this quick run-down then I advise you to read the Structure Info document by GSA (link). Every match 13 time trials are done, with (I might be wrong on this) the winner choosing the next stage every time. Due to the way the game functions it give the final time up to 1000’s of a second, this makes re-timing the game unnecessary.
Let’s look at the current standings. Basebalkid is on top with a 5 point lead over GoombaNL with 76 points. Basebalkid is however not undefeated, he lost 8-5 to OuterHalo. GoombaNL is in second place, with 71 points, and is undefeated. This is something I didn’t mention before, but the 13 games all award points to your profile, next to that 5 points are awarded for the win (beating your opponent). GoombaNL simply won but not in as great of a fashion as Basebalkid did, meaning he’s now despite not having lost a full match yet, in second place.

Tied with GoombaNL is OuterHalo, who also has 71 points, but has played one match less than GoombaNL or Basebalkid. Lothjon (66 Points) and OptimisticEmo (58 points) close out the top 5 of the Mario Kart Time Trials. It should be noted that place 6 on the leader board, Megamatt, is only 1 point behind Optimistic Emo with 57. Moreover place 7 is 2 points behind the place above it; Ultimarkh has 55 points and has an even season as of right now with a 3-3 standing.

In last, and very much in danger of losing his spot is Rasern, with only 15 points, all earned in defeat. The top 3 is very close, and so are the spots 5-7. Anything is still possible with the league, with 5 (6 for some) games to play, it will be fun to see the runners delevop strats and consistency trying to earn enough points to make their way to play-offs.

Super Mario 64 16 Star
In the 16 star division points are earned similarly to the system MDKK (Mario Kart: Double Dash) uses. Points are awarded for every game, plus an extra point for the contestant who wins the best out of 3 series of races.

Currently in 1st place is 16 Star World Record holder Akki. He’s earned himself 19 points 6 games, all of which he won. With 17 points he is followed by Binny, who has played 6 games, only 1 of which he lost. This loss was to Akki. Behind this we see Anti and Cheese battling for the 3rd place spot. Both have lost 2 games, 1 of which they lost to Akki. Cheese’s 2nd loss was to Gainai, while Anti’s 2nd loss was to Binny.

Behind this we see 3 men fighting for 5th place, Dwhatever, RochCalk19 and Weegee14 with 12 points. RockChalk has yet to face either of these two men. Weegee beat Dwatever during the season. It will be interesting to see who will prevail and earn the best spot for the play-offs. Looking only at the table the odds would favour Weegee, as he is yet to face opponents lower in the brackets.

In last place with 0 points is MrJimmysteel25, who hasn’t won any of the races over the 6 matches he played. It would be nice to see him earn a win, just to keep his spirit up. Gainai is the breakout story of the season probably, a runner who has only 2 points, and even a win with these two 2 over Cheese of all people.

Super Mario Odyssey Any%
The newest addition in the 3D Mario games catalogue is also a highly contested speed game, with World Record being lowered 7 times throughout the season. Different people held World Record over the course of the season, all of which are in the competition. Chaospringle, Nicroveda and as of writing this LilKirbs have all held World Record in SMO Any% during the season.

On top in the competition is Stavos96 with 294 points. Under this is Nicroveda with 281, followed by LilKirbs with 259 points. The top 3 is quite close, between place 3 and 4 is a bigger gap. Chaospringle has ‘only’ 193 points and ties with Suisaiga with this amount. This top 5 has great talent in it, retimings have already occurred, the competition is evolving quite fast. Comparing runs from the beginning of the season to those right now is not really fair. Runners that don’t implement new strats and routes during the season get left behind, and it shows on the leaderboard.

Two-player Any% World Record holder Orolme is in last with 63 points, only 5 point behind LilAggy with 68 points. The last 2 places are still really close. In the offseason it’s most likely we’ll see both of these men fighting for their spot in next season’s league. As of right now ReyalsdiorteM would also have to defend his spot, lacking 10 points to tie the 9th place of Dansta.

The Odyssey races have really been a joy to watch. The constant improvement of strats and solid commentary have made it very entertaining to watch. I suggest you try some of these matches, Stavos and Nicroveda would be a good option as they are both still undefeated.

Super Mario 64 70 Star Division 2
We’ve already discussed Division 1, so let’s take a look at who’s in line for a spot in the first division. M0m0 is in first place, 261 points, with 6 games played. Protoman5 is in 2nd place with 256 points, but has already played 7 games.

DrogieSR and JJsrl are in 3rd and 4th place. Both of these players are still in the race for 1st place. To my own surprise Cartoonbuffoon and BroMario28 aren’t competing as well as I expected. Cartoon is in 6th with 155. He’s been delivering interesting performances and solid runs over the course of the season, but hasn’t yet ‘turned it on’. His chances of 1st place (or play-offs in general) are slim, but existent. Bromario28 has only played 5 games and gathered 52 points, while others have already played 7, so the odds favour him to rise in the rankings, but the League Open Qualifier Tournament seems inevitable for him.

It’s interesting to note that nobody is undefeated or winless. The quality of runs is slighty worse than the first division, but the matches do seem more tense. The commentators should also be given praise as their performances on Division 2 matches were just as good if not better than the Division 1 matches.

Celeste Any%
The Celeste Any% are done 3 at a time like the 16 star matches. In the league are former-World Record holder Fladervy and current World Record holder TGH. Just like with Super Mario Odyssey Any% this World Record has been lowered during the season multiple times.

Unsuprisingly TGH is in the lead with 24 points, closely followed by Fladervy with 23 points. Nero_x2 closes of the top 3 with 21 points. This top 3 is pretty close, and both TGH and Fladervy are still undefeated. Their face-off will likely decide the faith of this season, unless Nero is able to beat TGH in their match. Fladervy has already beaten Nero and has also beaten No. 4 in the season MSushi, who has 16 points.

At the bottom there are two very respectable runners, Flarebear & Evanfight. The latter of which scored a single point, the former scoring none at all during the season. Their eventual clash will decide who is the better, because there will be at least 4 points on the line. However both will most likely play the Qualifier Tournament, together with MooseSR who’s spot is also in jeopardy as he is in 10th.

I would definitely recommend watching some of these matches. They’re only half an hour long and showcase the game beautifully. The game is, next to being very hard, aesthetically pleasing, this mixed with the high pace action and skips makes for a very entertaining run.

Sum-up
Halfway through the season not many places have been solidified yet. The only player who’s in a safe-spot in terms of first place holders is probably Puncayshun. Akki, TGH, M0mo, Stravos96 and Basebalkid are all still fighting for their first place, with direct competition on their heels. As the season progresses I intend to write another such post, perhaps at the end of the season.

Super Mario 70 Star Division 1, Celeste and Super Mario Odyssey Play-Offs will all be played at PACE 2019. This event is the first of it’s kind and has much to improve, but the concept is good. PACE 2019 will also showcase some other popular speed games, all worth checking out. PACE will be held from the 25th of April till the 28th of April, I hope to see many of you in chat.

About the me
Hi, I’m BaxterV. I decided to write this article because I am a speed run fan, one that greedily watches GSA live on Twitch, and the VOD’s on YouTube. However I couldn’t really put things into perspective. As of right now the whole program seems to be episodic, every block of races feels like a single race, not a match in a competition. That’s what sparked my interest to write this article, to give an overview of all the standings. I know I’m not a good writer, I apologize for that. Hopefully my writing skill will improve as we go, if I can get myself to do this on a monthly basis.



P.S. I'm not gonna bother adding pictures because by now it's already outdated, not motivated enough for that. Maybe at the end, but we'll see.

I'm back-ish! Tokublogster!

Hey guys! After a long absence I'm back, and so is the community it seems! I recently saw that XIG, a subber or group that has done the original Kamen Rider and Kamen Rider Super-1, has now begun doing Fiveman, and they're done halfway.
They release stuff with crazy speed. Then there is Quick and Dirty Subs that has already finished Dai Sentai Goggle-V! OZC still is doing a good job releasing Kyuranger, after having finished Jyougher. Next to this we have Love and Care that have finally released a new episode of Turboranger.
Soon I will begin working on the Kamen Rider subbing overview, soonly after that Metal Heroes, Garo and any other productions (Indy and stuff like Inazuman, Kikaider and more). I asked about Dynaman at Millionfoldcuriosity but they rudly shut the door if I may say so, I get it is asked a lot and is not nice but you could just say I'm 40% done or something XD.
Well okay if he says so. QaD (Quick and Dirty) is already thinking about a new series to sub, my guess would be Denziman, it's the only one that hasn't been subbed by anyone else. He did say something about not wanting to step on others people's toes. I get that but it would be nice if he would take JAQK and finish it for example, like Lord Tranza did.
He picked up Changeman and finished it in combination with the old DDF subs. XIG took up Fiveman, putting GUIS completely out of the game, anything their subbing is already subbed. That's kind of their own doing because they were slow with getting other stuff out there, I get that private life is hectic but don't be suprised if others with enough time and determination take up your projects.
Eight months ago or something I made a post saying it was sad that the subbing comunity was almost dead, now it's back and I'm delighted to say we're nearing the completion. TV-Nihon has finished Timeranger out of nowhere, and Shout! Factory is steadily releasing Sentai! I think that from Jetman on everything has been subbed now, which is awsome. I myself have been watching Goseiger, jeez that's boring.
The first 21 episodes or something we're bad. Then Gosei Knight came in and we had a few good episodes, now I'm at episode 30 and it's okay now but it is worse then Ninninger at the moment. And I'm almost finished with Goranger, at episode 53 now. So soon I'll be looking at Sun Vulcan or something. Good stuff at the moment, good to be back! BaxterV

Emulation/Retro Games #1

Hello,
It's BaxterV again, but today with a total different subject then you might expect. Today we're talking about Emulation. For those of you who don't know what that is: Playing a console game, or an older software form (Old-skool mac, Windows Xp/Vista), on your current PC, or even other console.
I love playing Retro games, I'm not good at them, so I'll use save states here and there, but it's so much fun to be able to play something that is the origin of where gaming started! Of course there are a lot of consoles, but not everyone of them needs a different emulator, especially the older ones can be combined because their very small systems.
The more recent one like CEMU and Citra need apps of their own, they shouldn't be combined. In this blog I will mostly review emulators in a rambling form and I will be explaining which games I've been playing. If you want more of this check out Youtube, like Simply Austin, the guy is great.

Mario
I recently started playing the original Mario and Mario 2, next to that I made a start on the undo-able Zelda 2. Let's start a the beginning. Oke Super Mario Bros. is a hard game, the controls are so wobbily. When I stop pressing the button, then stop moving. In this game when you jump up, it will kind of float to one side. When I release the button it doesn't stop.
The controls make it that this game is so hard to play, the inconsistency in the movement is hard. I used some savestates, but turned out to barely needing them. I became more profecient with the controls in the end but in the beginning it's like hell why is Mario moving so weird, not the animation but just the physics. I liked the game a lot, when you study the pattern every enemy is killable.
One thing I just hated in this game, was swimming. After having done that level 6 times, just to try and get handy with it, it still didn't feel natural. Really anoying, the thing was when you press A he moves forward, but just a bit, when you hold down right, to go right in the level, it swims very fast all of the sudden. When you try to do this in any other direction it didn't work.
Moving around the fish and obstacles is uncomfortable, not nice at all. As I said I completed the level first time by accident, and loaded the savestate from the beginning of the level. I tried so hard to think that I was playing it on the classic controller and how it might've been different, but just couldn't. Then onto Super Mario Bros. 2.....wow what a shit game XD. This game is all over the place.
I do have to look up a walkthrough sometimes for a game, I don't like exploring and wasting my time on that too much. But this was just weird, you have those vases where you have to go in, I would have NEVER thought of that man. Why? I'm missing the explenation. Then there was this 'boss battle' where you had to jump onto the egg, the press B to grab it, and then throw it (with awfull mechanics) at the Yoshi.
Like that makes any sense, why jump onto the egg, It would have made sense if there was a text box or something in it, that would say what I was doing. But maybe the game is just too old for that, not possible on the cardridges back then? Maybe? Then there was this black thingy, that jumped up and down, and again the jumping and floating through mechanic made this very hard, you had to jump on it, grab it, then put it under the hilly plateau and then jump on it to the plateau.
I examined the footage of the walkthrough, but I can't for the life of me make this jump. I'm doubting wheter I'll finish it, now I've started others already.

Zelda 2
At last we have Zelda 2....What a damn hard game, and again this game wants me to explore or something. I'm watching clipps of the walkthrough to get to the dungeons, the pattern of where to go doesn't make ANY sense. So I'll skip on that. Now the game itself is very hard, really hard. When you die 3 times you lose all your XP points, which is virtually the only way to become better at this game. The patterns of the enemy's are weird, the knight is just too hard. His reaction time is too fast.
I get where they were going with the game but failed it in multiple ways, the game itself has a map. For now it's still small, when you walk around enemy's will appear, the tile of area you are currently standing on will decide the enemy's and the area you fight in. The desert thingy is weird, hurting balls flying around you, and when I want to leave at the side of the level there can still be one of those! How? I can't that coming can I? The small blubbing enemy's drop 2 XP, the skeletons 30, and the knight 50.
The problem is that I have only access to the blubby ones, the others are in dungeons, and the knight is too hard currently. I've worked through the first dungeon, and it was fun at the beginning, but when I died 3 times I decided to go grind outside of the dungeon and enter it 2 level higher, which helped a lot. Now you still have the later levels, now I have to get even more XP, where can I get it? Nowhere XD.
The solution would be grinding, although if that's the solution I'd rather just cheat myself some more levels, it's not adding to the fun or something. Also I've seen a walkthrough on the internet, which is good, but not for someone who doesn't know his way around these games. I'll look at the Youtube video which helps a lot more XD. But then to the main event: The Caves! HOLY SHIT THESE ARE UNDOABLE! I dont know if I'm missing something, but these are dark, thing fly everywhere, and I have reach of on tile XD
How do I do these? I see no way to beating these withought save states, and even with I'm stuck. It's crazy how it is designed, I cant find the pattern or the logic how to beat these. I read text from a villager about a Candle, but as far as I know that is one I can get in dungeon 3/4. So how? I know I'm not a good gamer, and I'll grind probably because it's almost vacation for me but If I cant beat the caves I can't progress. By the way I'm using Nestopia as an Emulator for these games, no problems untill now.

Nintendo 64 part
Then there is Super Mario 64 which I want to complete 100 % for once, I've connected my PS4 controller (and before that my PS3 controller) to play this game and I'm using project 64 for it. Untill now no problems at all, again walkthrough needed because the level description do not give enough explenation to how to do this. I can watch videos (sometimes walkhtroughs of the game) while playing it, no lag or frame drops. I like the game but as mentioned, a walkthrough needed. I like watching speedrun, but I've never watched a complete one of Super Mario 64 before.
I do look out to Awsome Games Done Quick every year, and watch back everything that interests me. Also today I played Mario Kart 64, and I liked it a lot. Although you have to become used to the wobelly controls at first (especially drifting) in the end it's fun. One question I've been playing on 50cc and 100cc, both doable but cutting it close at 100cc. How am I supposed to do 150cc, is it just luck or something? I'm taking sharp turns and the good route every time, but still others are in my back constantly.
I'm not a good gamer, on the DS I was never able to do 150cc XD, but it really seems to be dependened on the items you get. Also Rainbow Road is tooooooo long, 7 minutes! Maybe with sharp times I can make that 6:30 or 6 but still. Other levels are 2/3 minutes.

Concluding part
Also I've been playing Super Mario Galaxy 2, but not on an emulator, yes XD I do have dolphin, which I will start using once I've finished Super Mario 64 for Super Mario Sunshine and Super Smash Bors. Melee. I've now done my research and I know how to connect bot the Movement Sensor and Wiimote to work on PC. And for the Gamecube games I've got my controller. The games are little bit laggy, but my PC was doing multiple things and is not so strong. For Super Mario Glaxy 2, it's a great game, but one with a couple of levels that are just hard, like trying 20 times before beating it.
At last I've tried to Emulate a Nintendo DS on my phone (I've got a Samsung A5 2016) which was just awfull, not worth doing. But suprisingly on my PC using DeSuMe it was laggy aswell, and I couldn't connect my PS4 controller to it, so doing Mario Kart on a keyboard is not doable either. Maybe some other emulator will work, I'll look into it soon. I hope I've given a good description of my current state, and what I'm doing. I love emulators, the fact that I can play Nintendo 3DS games and Wii U games already is crazy. Also Xbox 360 and PS3 are getting emulators but these are far from optimal, and not yet worth getting.
Also the 3DS and Wii U are early stage things, need optimizing. So when a big update comes out, I might just try it, it might be the update that makes it playable for me. You never know XD. Thanks for reading, I'll catch ya' down the road!

Updates concerning Shout! Factory

Yeah, so today it's the 29th of april and 4 days ago on the 25th of april Carranger got released. Right after this a new box art jumped up, one that belonged to the series Megaranger.
Megaranger was the 21st series and was adapted into Power Rangers in Space which was the 6th Power Rangers series. I think I speak for every sentai fan when I say that we're blessed with these releases.
Although most of these were already elegally subbed it still is awsome to get these. The quality is top level and the subs are 99,99% correct. It's an official source for something we love, so support these.
What I am sad about is the fact that the torrent from MFC is taken down already while I was looking to watch it after Ninninger, now I have to wait until August. But I'm okay with it, just me looking at details.
Of course if I really want it I can still get it somewhere, but thanks to MFC we got this series before Shout! started doing these releases. If I can remember correctly I saw them write something about this before.
Something like 'This is probably going to be picked up sooner or later by Shout! but we're just going to finish it anyway'. Or something like that, they were happy to do it and we are glad they did.
Here is their part about Megaranger releases: https://millionfoldcuriosity.wordpress.com/2017/04/14/megaranger-licensed-by-shout-factory/ . I hope they will release more stuff before Zyuranger, all of the other seasons have already been subbed.
But if i'm honest I don't think they will, their signature line is: Before Power Rangers there was Super Sentai. Which makes me to believe that they won't do any other seasons, and if they will, it will be a distant future.
It takes them about 6/7 months per season, and there are 20 season or something still to do, and they're barely catching up. So in 10 years they will have done 20 seasons, but 10 more seasons will have aired by then.
So yeah, if they will ever do it, it will be after they finish with all the current seasons. Maybe they will do it as a side project, but more something that will take them 18 months to do. I heared people say before Megaranger was released that their nect project would be Goranger.
Well, forget it. It isn't happening anytime soon. In the mean while, GUIS have released 2 more episodes and MFC has done 17 more episodes on Dynaman. MegabeastEmpire is steadily bringing out episodes, but that isn't Sentai so for me it cool but for others maybe not.
OZC is doing nice releases, and I'm the one who didn't do a damn. Yeah I started on Ultraman, but almost all of it is licenced. I'm almost done with Ultraman Ginga, which I don't really like or something, it's very average.
So yeah I got bored and didn't want to do anything, I'll continue soon with my releases, things like this are also nice to do.

Super Sentai Subbing Overview

Hello,
I´m BaxterV and I´m making a new (and updated from others) overview of all Super Sentai Series. I will break them down what series are done and what every translator has done. Later on I may considor doing something similar with Kamen Rider.
All thanks go to the great translator, whatever they did. Every episode counts and makes up for a part. All the information comes from other sites. Small shorts and toy comercials will not be listed.
And of course a lot of people work together in a network. If one drops this another will pick it up. Same goes for series that still need subbing or the newest series. (Mostly) They don't try to compete, they just hope that SOMEONE does it. Whoever it is.
All the names are put here as they are listed on the wikia. If wrong then please say it (In detail, it's hard to find in such a text). Also thanks to Bunnyhat, who covered 95% of all raws (he ripped them from TV and DVD/Blu-Ray to upload it for others to translate it).

Current State of the Series Individually

The mentioned files from Hikari-Senshi and Dead Fish Fansubs are mostly lost but if you really want to have them some of them were recovered here https://mega.nz/#F!1AwRAArK!S2VtCKZDdhhWUdtkvm66dg.

Notes: Yeah, is the Shushutto Scrubs a actual translation or is it still just a scrub? Hard to find out but I would guess it's an actual translation as the makers don't say a lot and are very serious about the way it's released. So I think it's done well.

Overal words:
Well.... I finished this a while ago, I was waiting for new 'exiting' subs to come out, but nothing happened. It was a long grind, I wanted everything to be perfect into the details. I now made backups of this thing and I plan on making a better release. I mean that this flat piece of text has all the numbers, dates, grammatically correct names, commas, notes where ever needed. You get what I mean, it good if you want to know something, look something up. But it's not the kind of thing you would use to pick out a new series or something. I want to re-release this thing and add colour, remove dates and over complicated names. Then I'll be satisfied and done with this project. Maybe some graphs and tables would be nice aswell. But the point is that there's not much to report on, there comes out a new episode of the current series every week....That's it! The subbing network has fallen soo hard on it's face, it collapsed and only the big 2 could survive together with scrubbers. The big two are Over-Time and TV-Nihon, who both work alone and get enough donations to keep themselves running. Then you've got OZC, they've got the money to buy the raws themselves (last time I checked they were something like 45$ for every volume, which includes 7-10 episodes or something). That's how it's still alive. Grown ups in spandex are more dead then any other subber group. OZC Scrubs the OT subs, with their own material. Nothing else is left to scrub except for un-uploaded stuff. No raws are available for Ninninger, it too new. So the whole subbing thing began between PR RPM and PR Samurai because there was nothing to watch. Then everyone got on this train and began subbing all of sentai. And don't get me wrong, we came far. But not all the way to the end station indeed. Subbers like Shir quit the game, he was the man who did like 4 whole series himself with the help of others (Grown UIS). I heard he got married, but he must've just left the whole thing. No releases since so bye bye to any older series. Then you've still got Love and Care. They're awsome, but slow. They had to get a new translator, Frank is his name. The original translator quit the group for unknown reasons. They have done one episode of J.A.Q.K. since the moment I became sentia fan. Then why are they awsome? Because they're the only subbing group who hasn't jumped out yet. MFC Stopped after Shout! Factory accuired all rights to the first 3/4 series. They stopped then, now the 5th is coming out in a months time. They did do a sub of the Gavan Blu-Ray after they had finished the original series already. I hope they just continue on more older stuff, like the metal heroes series. Which I want to make the same thing for, aldo that will be much more of a grind to get the numbers and facts right. Nobody did that yet, which makes it exciting for me. I don't even really get why I did this, it's probably just me wanting to do something for the community, because if I don't do it, the whole network will fall again. It's really been weird, everday when I come home looking at their sites hoping to see a new release, just to add 1+ on the list, just weird to see every one of those sites totally abandoned but still paid for. That could also be the problem with GUIS, they havent gotten a single dollar for their servers. I got all the scripts guys, If they go down I have me some scrubbing work you don't even want to know bout it XD. I just hope that everyone is still here, that were not totally left alone. It's weird typing this, I don't even know what it is I'm getting to. Hah. I'm considering doing a blog here, but then the nice and clean look of this site would be gone, and these two files would be hard to find, but yeah. A good world is based on sacrifices to qoute one of my favorite series. I'm also on twitter, BaxterV as always saying good bye, but hopefully see you another time. Link me to any errors please, it would be nice to get the whole file clean of them, but checking every line would cost me another 8 hours..........................
