Made a mistake at the description (says 4, but 5 is inside). Also posted this on Tokyotosho and /m/.
Now I'm going to sing for you that old Bundesbahn Blues.

Formula mentioned over there that they will continue to sub Phantom Arc. Didn't know about this (did anyone?).

Hmm... well, this puts a wrench in things. I'll have to compose a message to King.

I might drop over there with an apoligy/clarification too. I thought the translator had been hit with a bunch of personal problems and stuff, so thats why we took on the translation. Here's what I wanna say:

Hey Shinsenbros! Gunlord here, from BRO-Lord subs. Me and BROhgami Ichirou are sorry for any trouble/if it seemed we were scooping you or anything, but we didn't mean any offense. We thought your translator had been hit by some serious personal issues/IRL stuff, specifically here:

http://archive.easymodo.net/cgi-board.pl/m...747603#p5750705

He mentioned he'd been hit by work, illness, and other stuff, so just to take some of the pressure off him we thought it would be cool to do the remianing few episodes. Didnt mean to scoop anybody or anything, just wanted to give KingofBraves a lil' break, was all ;_; Sorry for the trouble.

Just so you know though, we also credit King and Shinsen-subs for doing the first 3 episodes (I put a note in each ep after the ED) so you know we werent trying to steal credit ot anything. Just wanted to help out a bit, is all, like I said.


Sound good? Anything I should add before leavin a comment?

Looks alright to me, Gunny. I just made my own post over there, myself.

Hello, King and Co. This is BROhgami of [BRO-lord].

First off, let me say that neither Gunlord nor myself knew of your intention to continue subbing Gen-Ei Hen. Back when I began work on translating our own release of Episode 4 in earnest, I was under the impression that you had no practical way of continuing your releases in the foreseeable future. So, I went at the project with the intent of going all the way through to the end of the OVA, and was even starting to work on Episode 6 before I caught wind of your new activity. Generally I use /m/ as a hub for info on what's going on with various subbing groups rather than browse through blogs, and in your case it seems to be vice-versa. Given this, it seems that neither of us were able to read each-others' intent before things wound up like this, and for that I apologize.

When it comes to matters like this, I'm always wary of stepping on others' toes or creating bad blood, so I hope we can resolve this situation. Your release of Episode 4 speaks to your own intent, so if it's what you prefer then Gunny and I will stop our own work on Phantom Arc. I'm not sure if replies to comments can be made here, so if you'd like to continue the discussion, then feel free to follow the links provided by Chokutsuu and sasword above.

Hello manly men, Merines of Formula here.

Right off the bat let me say ya'll can do whatever you please with regards to Phantom Arc. If you've already started the translation, then by all means don't waste that work. Although I was initially butthurt, I genuinely don't care now. Fansubbing is not worth getting upset over.

Second, oh lord am I glad that I'm banned from 4chan because the archived thread BROhgami linked is so full of misinformation and bullshitting that it makes me sick. About the only accurate post was the one stating that Shinsen was no longer formally involved with the project. There was no forum post stating that the project was being held up because a typesetter dislikes Votoms (the SHS forums have been down for months, plus I'm the typesetter). I was not even aware of any discord in king's personal life-- he's an awesome dude and I had no reason to believe he would up and drop the project, so I don't think I ever poked him for status updates.

A little history on me and Votoms: I timed and edited all of Pailsen Files, Big Battle and the Last Red Shoulder. I was in Shinsen until its death and have always run my own group, Formula, as well. We jointed on Big Battle (SHS-FoSu -> Shinsen & Formula Sub). Also if anyone remembers the name mushroom from /m/, I provided the Casshern SINS and Pailsen Files Movie OSTs, as well as the second Shin Mazinger OST.

So again, don't hesitate to finish Phantom Arc if you wish to. It will probably be several weeks before Formula does since I haven't gotten the Blu-ray delivered or the script emailed to me yet. No drama is necessary.

Heh, what Gun said, Merines. It does feel a waste for me to stop my own progress now, but I'll be looking forward to your own future releases of Phantom Arc, too.
