Unfortunate News, As Well As Good Ones

By 7h3d4rkw0lf on Jul 10, 2011

Well, maybe, maybe not.

Bad News Part

We\'re going to drop Ikoku Meiro no Croisee for the summer season.

Why? Simple. We\'re just way too understaffed. There\'s only so much that 5 people, who are mostly high school students with a lot of other time commitments, can do as far as subbing goes.

Yeah, just 5 of us were trying to sub 3 shows in one season. It\'s like trying to climb Mt. Everest in your damn boxers and with toothpicks for icepicks. Sure, you can try. You\'re just damn likely to fall short along the way.

Anyways, we still love the show, we love Yune, we love everything about it. It\'s just of our three shows, Ikoku has the least obligations for us.

We can\'t drop Ro Kyu Bu because we\'re doing a joint with EveTaku and it\'d simply be selfish and bastardly on our end to drop it.

Can\'t drop Nichijou because I won\'t allow it. I\'ve spent way too damn much time on this show to let it best us halfway through. (Not to mention it\'s our first \"real\" show\" that we picked up. It\'s got it\'s worth.)

Sort of Better News Part

In other new though, we\'re going to be completely revamping the way our team works.

\"What the hell does that mean?\" you ask?

Simple, I\'m going to have everyone relearn the way we sub. Everyone starts from square one. Everyone improves their skill. Everyone improves their speed. I realize that our recent releases have been dropping quality, so much to the point that I was forced to release a v0 for our latest release of Nichijou. This all going to change.

I\'m not going to say you\'ll see changes next week. No, that\'s simply unrealistic. But, I\'ll make damn sure that whatever happens, you\'ll only see improvements from here on out. Think of our Nichijou 15 as our rock bottom point. Things will only improve from there.

Many things have been factors in my recent changes of attitudes. Before, I was a gung-ho! type of person, steaming full speed ahead and not giving a damn about what most haters said. I mean, that\'s nice in a sense, but it won\'t work in some cases.

Anyways, I\'ve already deleted like 10 paragraphs because they were just me ranting, but point being.

We\'re at a shaky point in our subbing career, but we\'ll be back with nothing but improvements.

Ahodomo Fansubs, now recruiting!

By 7h3d4rkw0lf on Jul 5, 2011

More specifically, we\'re looking for one QCer and one editor.

Requirements for Both:
MUST be willing to use skype for all subbing work.
MUST be on at the agreed times (They\'re consistent we won\'t call you up at 4AM in the morning or anything.)
MUST be willing to take up another job in case of emergencies. (eg, all typesetters are MIA.)
MUST not be a weeaboo.

QCer: Good grammar, attention to details, willing to check over an entire episode once or twice to make sure nothing slips through. Also, QCers won\'t have as much grammatical checking responsibilities as it goes through the editor first, but instead QCers will also have to check for aesthetics (styling, fonts, colors, etc) as well as to check the timings of lines and signs. (eg, make sure a sign doesn\'t start too early or bleed into the next scene. Also, to make sure dialogue lines don\'t start too early or end too late)
Notably one of the \"easiest\" jobs to do. Great for those who want to help a subbing team but don\'t want too much weight on their shoulders.

Editors:
MUST HAVE FAWKING FABULOUS GRAMMAR. That\'s about it, really.

HOW TO CONTACT:
Either email myself at w0lf@ahodomo.net or join in on #ahodomofansubs@irc.rizon.net
Be warned however, that if you get no reply on the IRC channel (eg, you come on while we\'re all asleep) then you\'ll have to send an email to me.

To Aru Majutsu no Index-tan 04

By Arche on Jun 24, 2011

After six months of waiting, Ahodomo proudly presents the fourth episode of To Aru Majutsu no Index-tan!

(Torrent) | (.ass)

You\'ll likely notice the v0 in the torrent name. As explained in the description, not unlike episode 3 this was done with the first raw on hand because God knows if we\'ll find a higher quality one in the near future. When we do (Feel free to let us know if one pops up), we\'ll reupload ASAP.

Currently we have even less staff missing, so this episode was done by me, Belldandy-sama (Who I forgot to mention last week for assisting with Nichijou. Give him a welcome as another quality checker), and d4rk (Who did damn near everything that wasn\'t editing on his own. APPLAUSE)

Fun fact: This episode more or less marks 6 months that we\'ve been subbing. Here\'s hoping to improve and continue (Not necessarily in that order)

Hiatus- part 2

By Arche on Jun 11, 2011

(See title)

So yeah. Both of our typesetters are away from the internet (And likely out of the country, for that matter). Because of this, Nichijou 10+11 will continue to be on hold. Once one or the other shows up again we\'ll be sure to get started on working.

Until then,
