Summer truly is here.
VHS fansubs...
>>143232878
that's mcanime HD light. "Superb Quality" acording to spics.
Obligatory
>>143232878
Modern anime fans wouldn't survive a week in the 90s.
>>143235152
Came here to post this.
I have some fansubs on VHS of death/rebirth from way back from the 90s. Maybe someday I'll digitally transfer them into a hard drive.
>>143235152
I don't get the Bill Cosby thing, but it still amuses me.
Was it only for comedic purpose?
>>143232114
what did he do?
>>143232878
Buddy, this was good quality back in the 90s.
Anybody who thought fansubs being your primary source of anime translations was a good thing is a fucking moron.
And I'm not talking 90s VHS, I'm talking modern mid to late 2000s. Anybody who thinks that's better than the current situation for subs is completely retarded.

I've always wondered what made whoever did this think it was a good idea.
>>143235307
Read the previously listed items in Bill Cosby's voice.
>>143235501
You can't understand the REAL INTENT OF THE ORIGINAL JAPANESE with your filthy gaijin words.
>>143235558
Have to realize there are faggots in these threads who never knew the magic that is Bill Cosby. In which they are too young, and ignorant of older media.

Who kinda broke our hearts
The rape stuff doesn't bother me, but now I feel like I'd have trouble watching any of his stuff knowing how insidious he was.
>>143235152
This is trying way too hard.
Checkmate is the better one in my opinion.
>>143235720
Sadly, I lost the original and only have the [gg] reference to it.
>>143235307
I was of the opinion that it was a South Park reference.
>>143235707

Here say, and old cunts just wanting to gold dig on an old senile black comedian.
>>143235201
no one from this era who is too adapted to internet would survive in the 90s to be fair. nevertheless, in my case, it would be intereseting to go back to those places where my stepfather used to rent dragon ball dvds and rent also all the oldschool anime i never watched
>>143235707
Funny. I listen to music from people who burn churches and have murdered people. The music still sounds good regardless of the acts of the individuals that created it.
>>143235894
sorry, i mean vcr
>>143235852
It's a lotta fucking hearsay though man. I like Bill Cosby's work more than most, but to be honest after reading up on him when the allegations first started coming in I thought "yeah, that makes sense." I don't think all of them are being honest, but I bet at least one of those chicks got the pudding pop without asking.
>>143235707
Hey quite a bit of /a/ isn't from the US:
>>143235787
kek
>>143235970
Shh, Americans don't know that other parts of the world exist.
Not much of a fansub contribution.
But I did find a sly comment from a sailor moon scan about Ami Mizuno. I think it's from the translator.
I'm going to research Chix comics and see if I can find more information.
>>143236002
Every country is America, you fuckers just don't know it yet. Enjoy your American Chinese cartoon image board.
>>143235852
>Here say, and old cunts just wanting to gold dig on an old senile black comedian.
Well yeah, not like it personally affects me, so I don't have to vindicate him for it whether he did it or not. His guilt is immaterial to me personally and society will shred his legacy anyway, even if he his proven innocent there will always be doubters like there were for MJ.
>>143235897
True, it doesn't diminish the quality of said work. But it may diminish enjoyment for some as their perception will be tainted by the scandal. Most hard hit would be those who idolized the man growing up as they saw him on TV.
>>143235970
Neither am I, not even the same continent. Cosby's stuff probably went out to a lot more countries in the form of reruns or VHS tapes as well. I think I probably watched reruns as a kid.
>>143235968
The guy made jokes in his stand up act about slipping luudes into girls' drinks, my distrust of modern rape hysteria is trumped by the knowledge that even seemigly civilized black people are niggers at heart in this case.
>>143236026
Oh, we can do manga?

Everyone is a nigger at heart anon, the crackers, the curries and the yellow bellies as well.
>>143236026
I always remember that one scanlator freaking out about gays in... I think it Cardcaptor Sakura manga.
And even though it doesn't count since it was in the actual doujin, but one doujin artist freaking out about Utena not being a virgin will always be aces.
>>143236209
Purityfags getting blown out is always fun.
>>143236002
Other countries only exist when Americans aren't in them; the military has been hard at work making sure those countries are few and far between.
>>143236112
>>143236200
This just looks like it's out of context, the parents in question could easily be fishers.
>>143236248
God, and I thought the scanlations I originally read Berserk in were bad.
>>143236238
Bonus on the Utena one, it was a yuri purefag getting mad [Utena spoilers]she fucked a dude.
I wish I remember to save it last time I saw it floating around.
>>143236327
oh you have no idea
>>143235201
is there an alive torrent for this anywhere?
>>143236366
>>143236112
Sure.
Here's one I found from a Black cat Scanlation job.
>>143236461
Shoujo edition

It isn't real, you faggot.

>>143236475
Another page
>>143236366
The scary part is, I reread this last year, some of these awful scans are still in use by manga streaming sites
I love these guys
>>143236627
And finally a credit page.
Thank you contributors at my secret torrent club.
>>143236635
so are these.
gg still keeping the dream alive.
>>143236536
Are you aware of the frequent mass naked child events?
>>143235469
It's not that it's a "good" thing, it's just that it makes us nostalgic for a time when we didn't have any alternatives. Kind of like how black people still eat soul food

Anyone have those joke translations that the guy physically wrote onto the page while in a McDonalds or something and got stains all over them?
>>143235897
>liking Burzum
>>143236424
I doubt it, it's just stuff from my own collection that went defunct before bt even got popular. The only vhs torrents left are generally for things that have never gotten a better release.
>>143235883
>>143236285
>>143235201
The files are still out there, you just have to find someone that's willing to give you whatever it is you're looking for.

I didn't even that was a word, what sort of fucking machine translator were they using?
>>143232114
>Great moments in fansubbing
so you mean like these times scanlator drama?
>>143235883
This would be so much better without the TL note
>>143238182
Machine translation can't even be called bad, it's just an entirely different level of entertainment.
>>143237323
Good subtitling doesn't get in the way, this is a masterwork example of that.
>>143236922
I always fucking laugh at TL note 3 because the other 2 are deep and shit and that one is just "yaoi lmao"
>>143236424
You can google up one half-episode of Evangelion in original .viv format (that's pre-divx era) that is on the very same site it has been placed to ages ago. Funny thing is, you probably need >>>>>>>>>>>VLC, ffmpeg, or mplayer to play the damn format. IIRC, you couldn't even rewind the file because it wasn't supported.
There are some .rm rips for old stuff. More or less definitive 70 MB .mpg rip of “Engel” could be considered “Blu-ray quality” at the time.
>>143239128
>There are some .rm rips for old stuff.
Oh yeah; I remember freshman year of college watching Blood+ and 12 Kingdoms in .rmvb files sneakernetted from the weird recluse on the first floor. Good times.
>>143237099
The prevalence of LD-only stuff continues to astound me as well. The other week I wound up having to make my own encode of the R2 DVD for Dragon's Heaven and port over the only available subs, which were from this piss-poor LD rip.
Old thing is old: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUYlqLlbix0&list=PL812E1AAFC1072E7F
It is probably worth a mention to a modern viewer that most of criticized examples were hardsubs.
