I'm making 1:1 raws of the first volume; they're a gig and a half each, but they're ideal for translators to work from and reencode (or just release an MKV with the subs matched to the raw). The Anons on /m/ seem to be very receptive to the project, as well. The only obstacle left is the lack of fre...

I'm chatting on the /m/Subs IRC channel right now. One guys says he has all the Japanese DVDs!

Marine Express has already been subbed, if I recall correctly. I'm also interested in the 1960s and 1980s series, but I'll have to see how the 2003 series goes.

It's a bit less grainy, but just a bit. I've got all the special features in their own folder, and all the episode VOBs have been split into chapter cells and placed into folders for each episode. I haven't done any encoding yet; I'm checking out 4chan to see if anyone there is interested in the pro...

Got enough space free on my drives to start decrypting and reencoding the first volume. I'm going to try to remove the slight grainy look during the encode. After that, I just need to find someone well versed in moonspeak who's willing to translate.

Got the first volume today. Haven't watched it yet, but I'm going to soon. It came with a trading card!

[UPDATE]

The special features are as follows: 7 character profiles, opening and ending sequences without credits, a couple of character videos, and a segment about aircars.

Haha, I leave for a couple days and sgupta is planning on releasing full ISOs and AVIs. Makes me feel inadequate.

I'm still gonna do the Japanese originals, though, just because.

I like the more subtle colors on the DVD version; I'll have to take care not to lose anything in conversion. Those black lines on the sides for both of the pics bug me, though; hopefully the Japanese DVDs don't have them. Oh, and nice capture, by the way. Didn't think you'd go so far as to get the e...

Post a few lossless screenshots somewhere. The episodes in the torrent had this gray haze look over everything, as you can see in the first post. If the Japanese version looks the same (hope not), I'll probably do the remaster I was talking about. (It's just increasing color saturation and adjusting...

Okay, I just placed the order for the first volume. (I now have $11 to my name XD)

I should get it in about 7-10 days.
