Topic: Prince of Tennis or PoT

[Waldberg]

Hi everyone ... i registered here because of one thing .... i want to ask  you to translate the prince of tennis anime.
Its like that : today i went to animesuke (like everyday) and what do i ve to see : Again a new translation group which puplished a naruto episode.
This is now the 4th or 5 th group which is taking care of naruto.
Of course ... naruto is great and its my favorite Anime as well as it is to many of you but i cant understand why nobody is translating pot.
Since anime.otakus stopped translating many fans have to watch the raws to see what happens next and instead of changing this i ve to see that another group is translating a anime which is already taken by so many other groups.
this disappointed me.
I know that ... everybody can come here and ask for a translated version of his favorite anime.
But Pot has many fans and is on the same level with animes like full metal alcemist (japan beloved anime nummer 1) and naruto (japan beloved nummber 10). pot got the 8 th place in this voting.
This is why i am asking you guys... one of  the biggest and surely best and reliably translation groups.
I really hope you will think about this.

as you can see my 2 pitiful little stars give me no say whatsoever on what gets translated and what doesnt.  i have seen a couple of eps of prince of tennis, crazy show but isnt it hella long?
dont we have enough really long series going?  do you plan on torturing me by suggesting this?

[Waldberg]

Yep you are right , we already have enough long series going thats it why we should take only the best ...
But for real ... i can understand that it is not easy to decide something like that because... i , to exemple, could`nt imagine to do anything like you guys do ... guess i am missing the right discipline so the fans wouldnt have much fun of the translation i would do ....
But i think its clear that ... if a fan wanna ask a favor about a business in which you are in ... he will run to you ( my englisch isnt the best ... hope you understand what i mean )
Anyway ... Maybe you guys can just talk and think about it ... just watch some more episodes ... and decide =) ...
apropos ... about the size of pot ... as you know a.o have already translated 115 episodes ... and in japan they are now to 134 if i am right .
so you dont need to translate the other episodes.

Thanks for your time =)

p.s: befor i forget ... i dont wanna torture you  =) ... just imagine how many people you make happy at once with that.
Where do you get such an opportunity for love spreading  again ?

[crypticgimp]

spreading love abounds here at L-E and it does too at the local humane society full of cute kittens and puppies waiting to be euthanized  

umm..i was going somewhere with this.....

[greenkabbage]

well as a general practice LE does not pick up a series somewhere in the middle. Why did A-O stop subbing PoT? Maybe it's a better idea to bug them about it, or try to form a group centered around PoT. If there are that many fans, there probably is someone who knows a little bit of japanese, maybe even a few of them. If they truly care about the show, they can get together and translate the episode. That will beat watching the raw. Encoding, timing, and typesetting require no Japanese skills, so that could be done by any old fan.

As cryptic said, we are already doing many long shows, and are currently quite maxed out. I'm sorry that I cannot be a fansub ho and put out this time. But be sure to watch the other excellent shows are we are doing

We're already spreading the love all around by doing what we are doing. We do all this fansubbing work as a hobby and our motivation is the luv (yeah baby!) already. Be sure to spread the love yourself, too, and promote our subs :p

P.S. Willkommen zum Forum. Ich hoffe das war nicht das letzte mal das wir dich hier sehen.

[crypticgimp]

i feel the emanating from your post kabbage!  

[crypticgimp]

*love* i mean...

[greenkabbage]

Don't you know it. I'm full of love... at least I think that's what they said I was full of.

[Waldberg]

The earth would be a much better place if everybody would be able to answer in such a nice way as you do kabbage  

P.s : a 1 /4 pounder with tomato and salate is called in europe Royale TS =)

[crypticgimp]

yes kabbage is full of something..i think its love, but i could be wrong  

PS: i know in france the 1/4 pounder is called a royale dunno about the rest of crazy europe

[greenkabbage]

Yup, Royal TS, stands for Royal (mit) Tomate (und) Salat. Ich lebe gerade in Muenchen
And yes, I try to keep my answers civil and friendly to make this world a better place

[crypticgimp]

ahem... *points to other posts kabbage has made concerning a certain female translator that shall remain nameless  

[greenkabbage]

Hey! that's slander! I *was* nice and civil towards her too! You abused me to get to that third star! I see how it is, you will do anything to achieve your stars. But honestly, I was very nice and civil towards that stuck up translator too. Oops, did I just say 'stuck up'?  

[crypticgimp]

lol i see through the faulty logic! thats like me saying i was *nice*

i have not lost my dignity in gaining stars so
