Are we all waiting for Initial D to be licensed now? Episode 24 came out on March 18th? 23 days ago today. (Is it a joke that you are going to make the 24th release on the 24th day? I wouldn't laugh)
It's all been good high quality work and, yeah, other groups subbed it WEEKS ago, but I thought the point of fansubs was to let us watch them while they are currently not planned to be released in the US. Then you supposively expect us all to actually buy the dvd's if it is (which this is a near guarentee for this anime) after it's licensed? So why then do we wait so long for a "high quality" release? Why would I want to buy the dvd if I already have a copy of your such high quality fansubs burned right here and now?
You have two new "high quality" releases a week from your group alone. You've admitted before that not many who work on these are big fans of Initial D, but at least show the pride for your group a little more by releasing within a decent time period. It's embarrassing that you've done 23 episodes, but still can't get your act together for the very last one. It's only become worse. You even threaten delays if we speak out about it. How can you negatively reinforce a punishment that you've pushed on us all along? You didn't have to even fansub them (especially since your not even real fans). Other people who were real fans were forced to fansub them after you knocked out competition for the project in the beginning. Back then, you got the subs out perfectly within a week. That was where your true support came from and why the forums for ID have died now. Just look at the new thread post number
-_-
No ID4 isn't dropped. Real life gets in the way you know etc etc. If you're DESPERATE to see it theres always raws and we arent the only group subbing ID4...

Your real life got in the way is understandable. I'm sure that the other projects suffered as well, ne? All I read into it is a lot of apathy. I'll check back in June to see if you decided to start on the time by THEN. People have learned Japanese enough to get the gist of the episode in the time it takes you to get out an episode. At least your educating others right?
