Live-Evil regretfully announces that both Tsubasa Chronicles and Nana are dropped.

First, for Tsubasa, Live-Evil will discontinue their participation in the project. Tofusensei, who was the only person from Live-Evil working on the project has been unable to keep his promises regarding getting things done on a reliable schedule. Dattebayo is willing to continue the project alone if a suitable translator can be found. For more details on this you can see Dattebayo’s press release on their site.

Second, It deeply saddens me to announce that Live-Evil is dropping Nana, a project that I personally enjoyed working on very much. Again, this is due to Tofusensei’s lack of participation in the project, for which he comprised 1/2 of the staff along with myself and Vash. Similar to Tsubasa Chronicles, Live-Evil does not have the resources to continue the project at this time. If you happen to be an extraordinarily skilled translator, contact interactii on rizon or etg, and we’ll see if perhaps we can work something out, but I’m not very hopeful.

I wish to apologize to all the fans who have wanted, in earnest, for our releases on these projects, and let me tell you I’m very disappointed in Tofusensei, who made continuous promises on these series, only to break them.

Meanwhile, I encourage you to check out our other projects, there’s some really exciting stuff going on, so stay tuned!

DB is giving a 1 week grace period for new translators to volunteer to continue both projects as DB solo projects. See interactii on rizon.

Press Release - 6/18/2006

DB to Drop Tsubasa Joint

Dattebayo decided today that it would tentatively drop "Tsubasa Chronicles Second Season" after several bumpy releases and three weeks without script delivery.

Tofusensei of Live-Evil, who was responsible for episode translation as well as episode encoding, did not deliver scripts to Dattebayo for the third consecutive week, after making numerous promises to deliver scripts prior to that. He was also the only member of the Live-Evil staff involved on this project, other than interactii, who is involved in both groups.

The original agreement with Tofu-sensei was to have scripts to us by Saturday Mornings, and episodes released late Saturday Nights, in the same way we very successfully conducted the first season of Tsubasa Chronicles.

At this time, Live-Evil is officially dropped from the project, as they do not have the resources to fill out the project, and DB is opening the project to other translators for a period of one week. If no suitable translator is found within one week, the project will be permanently dropped.

Any translators wishing to apply should have moderate prior fansubbing expirence (completion of at least one complete season of a 26 episode show) and will be subject to a test episode. They must be available to deliver a completed script no later than 12 PM Eastern Time, Saturday with the delivery of a 6 AM Eastern Time Raw. DB would also be willing to consider a new joint on the project.

DB would like to reiterate, that the failure is entirely the responsibility of Tofusensei, and not Live-Evil. They worked hard with us to the best of their resources and should the opportunity come up again, DB would be happy to work with Live-Evil.

Tsubasa:
Uhhh, some tips for people wanting to volunteer.  Make sure you have a very reliable and high speed net connection and you don't have to bother about school and such daily responsibilities.  But people who are willing to help, please contact interactii....you're willingness to volunteer wil be truly appreciated by us Tsubasa fans.

ShinnenNoHane:

A Tribute to TSC...

Farewell Dear Sakura,
Your Innocence and Memories will always be us
Goodbye Friendly Syaoran,
Whose fiery spirit burns brightly with each passing wind
Adieu, White Fye D. Flowright,
Your flamboyance unparalleled save Brazil's
Goodspeed Swift Kurogane,
May you find your Path home,
Also our Manju Bun Mokona, Soel,
Your cuteness we will dearly miss

May all find happiness
In their unforgiving worlds
May the elusive feathers be with them
As they traverse across Earths
Even when we are gone
We hope for the best
For your quest

Oh, Noble Travellers
We will rest
But in Our Hearts
We Attest
We Convict
We Confess
We're behind you
All the way
Till the end
Of Your weary quest
And days....

All the way...
