So way back in like December of 2005 you talked about hijacking this project and working on it Masakari. Whatever happened to that ???
Its always nice to know whats going on and good to hear that some people are still thinking about Ask Dr. Rin. I'd love to help out too if it would be useful, so just send me a smoke signal, or a telegram, or whatever other form of communication you Live-eviL types prefer. I'll be waiting. ;)
*and as a side note, Willow rocks!!!!!!!!

Maybe Galen Musbach has the DVD ? He seems to collect most (if not all) DVD boxes of mahou shoujo stuff and he has posted here in the forum offering to help L-E with some raws (check the Creamy Mami thread). Maybe he doesn't have them, but I guess asking wouldn't hurt.
Another option would be using the HK DVD for raws. The HK guys have released the entire Ask Dr. Rin series and the DVDs can be bought from ebay for cheap. But they're bootlegs, of course, and maybe you won't want to work with them.
I don't have Dr. Rin but have now ordered Box 1 (CD Japan); I'll get box 2 later. Once it arrives, how do I get the data to the encoder? (My upload speed is about 50 MB per hour. 25 GB of data is therefore a 500 hour upload.)

Rip using DVD encrypter, write vobs to DVD and mail. Your media costs / shipping costs would be covered by someone.

Actually, StarCreator should be the one that you send the raws to. As far as I know, neither WillowD or I even have any experience with encoding.
Demn was the previous encoder and the one that owned the DVDs, not me.
Just as an update, a Priority mail package arrived from Galen two days ago after the USPS bounced it around for at least a week due to the weirdness of mail forwarding.
I wonder what would happen if Captain Harlock had to fight Dr. Rin?
um, i know it's rude to ask about status, but i m only asking becuz i know the project had already stalled once, so....
is the project stalled again? can i hope for more eps in the near/not so near future?
thank you guys so much, and know that whatever the answer, i appreciate your hard work and your other wonderful subs.
so the last time I asked was october 30, and I see the project status still hasn't changed from translation check stage.
do you guys need more translation checkers? it's possible I could help, although I'm not sure howuseful I'd be.
I don't know japanese too well, but I could tell you if the english makes sense.
anyways, thanks for all the wonderful anime you guys release! DN and Galaxy Express 999 ROCK!!
(and so does dr. rin)
UPDATEThe pig is adorable, and I'm very happy, but did he change his mind? It's almost the end of October, so I was just wondering if the Zen master sided with the other two and convinced him to wait. :'(
The pig has cleared episode 10 for release, over the objections of both the astrologer and the feng-shui master.
The astrologer had indicated that the configuration of the stars did not bode well for any release in the month of October, and urged that all October releases be held back until the heavens indicated the time was right for a release.
The feng-shui master objected on the basis of a release held on the rising of Niao and the falling of Xu, Mao, the white tiger and the dark turtle. He believed that a release would be irresponsible and result in the loss of 1000 acres in rainforest in Malaysia, of 97 office ladies in Nagasaki quitting their jobs in protest, and of the continuation of the single-child policy of the People's Republic of China.
Despite their vehement objects to any release, the pig used his veto power to override their objections despite threats of work stoppage and resignation.
Hence and thereafter, the pig has willed it, and so, it shall be done. All praise unto the pig.
is there any way that this group could release the raws they use of this anime? Just wondering. Impatience is probably getting the better of me, but I just thought I'd ask. :-[Call up the pig on Skype (find the contact info on the site) and ask him nicely. Sometimes if he is feeling nice you can convince him to send you a few raws in exchange for sending him goodies in trade. He really likes carrots, romaine lettuce, and certain fruits like 'cuties' (a type of seedless tangerine or orange derivative popular on the US west coast). You might want to brush up on your shougi skills, the last person who managed to get raws out of him won a bet they could beat him at shougi.
Sorry for the long silence everyone! I was actually the one holding things up because I said I was timing an episode (which I was) but then I went AWOL for awhile. Sorry! :'(Yay!!! ^_^ No problems! Glad to have you back. [:burtonsnowboard] The episode looked like so much fun from the previews, I can't wait until it's done. [:love]
All I'm gonna say is, five more years! :D
Take that however you will. ;p
...Around half a year later, still waiting. [:cupra] I just want to make sure once again that the project's not dead. Please tell me it's not!
Not "dead" but more like on hold.
Bump for activity :)I thought there wasn't suppost to be activity for this !!!@$!%$
so, is this still an active project?
