June 2009 Update

We've wrapped up BokuKano and we hope that you enjoyed it.
Also, we're releasing the Gokusen 3 Special today, so that leaves a big void in our project queue, right?
So, it's time to announce that secret project. Drum roll please!!
The secret project is... Manhattan Love Story!
It's a drama that was written and produced by Kudo Kankuro, the same person who brought us IWGP and Ryuusei no Kizuna.
We're still working on it, so please no requests or questions about when we'll be releasing. All I can say is that it'll be out soon.

Also the HD re-release poll (to the right) will end on June 12, 2009--->
Nodame Cantabile is in the lead, followed closely by Hana Yori Dango. won.

Here's the results of the poll:
Which series would you like to see re-released in HD format? (Poll Closed)

1. Nodame Cantabile 36% (1435 votes)

2. Hana Yori Dango 1 and 2 (movie excluded) 33% (1305 votes)

3. Hanazakari no kimitachi e 19% (770 votes)

4. Zettai Kareshi 6% (250 votes)

5. Galileo (movie excluded) 6% (224 votes)

Total Votes: 3984

HD re-releases will be scrubbed and cleaned, so it'll give people an incentive to re-download if they really love the series.
We will probably release other series depending on popularity.

Our tentative schedule:
Gokusen 3 Special (SD release today, HD release soon)
Manhattan Love Story (edit/typesetting/karaoke)

Recruitment:
We'll be reviewing applications this week for potential staffers! Be on the look out for incoming emails from me.

May 2009 Update

Another month, another update. We've accomplished a lot this month. Although it doesn't look much, we've completed three 2 hour long projects. These three projects equal roughly six normal drama episodes.
Here's a list:
BokuKano episodes 3-4
Zettai Kareshi Special (SD/HD)
Galileo Movie
Anmitsu Hime 2 Special (SD/HD)

So, congrats to the team for making this happen. :)

I don't want to torture you guys any longer, but someone has guessed the secret project. I don't want to rush the translator so I'll announce it as soon as she's done. ;)

April 2009 Update

The one month break was totally necessary.
But we're back and releasing already.
Thanks for all the feedback so far about series recommendations.
We do look at every comment and take everything else into consideration.
Unfortunately, no one guessed the secret project... yet.

A few hints:
1. It aired already. (So, it's an older series)
2. No one has completely subbed it... yet.
3. It is a FULL series (9-12 episodes long).
