Just in case anyone didn't know Maetel legend is coming to r1 dvd nect month... ;D
i know this is off topic ...but was...ep. 13 the last episode of GALAXY RAILWAYS.. ???
Someone obviously can't be bothered to read other threads in this forum ne?
Oh and if you're asking for *all* the episodes subbed in English you'd be asking for HK bootlegs. Live-eviL does not support the distribution of HK bootlegs.

Recently I browsed few books of original GE999 manga and it seems really interesting. No hope i could ever learn to understand those kanjis though.
Sure thing. I can process like 2x a week on top of Harlock...
Thanks Again and please keep up the outstanding work. U'll see me around here now trying to follow up on what i've been missing since 1978 ;D
MI Kotei. Girls? Me? Yeah right...... :-\
Maybe We'll be good and sub two eps this weekend! ^^!
I heared that there new released of GE999 DVD rip raw. This may be a good news of Masakari san.:P
<--- #1 Matsumoto devision fan-boy
anyone will challenge my title? ;P
Who did the translation for this great series?
Hi,
I'm very new to all this donloading of Anime lark. However, I just wanted to say that I've waited twenty years to see Galaxy Express 999 and I'm loving it. I've only seen that first four episodes so far but I love it's sense of tragedy and drama. I look forward to the future instalments.
I've scanned through the previous messages in this thread and must say I was quite shocked by the rudeness and lack of gratitude. Am I missing something here? No money has been exchanged has it? These subs are done out of love, not for gain? If that's correct, then I find it incomprehensible that anyone should have the gall to complain!
Keep up the good work.
John

Galaxy Express 10 is almost ready for QC. Don't count on that delay just yet!
That post is Bullshit.
The Delay has nothing to do with QC. Period. QC takes like 1-2 intelligent people, and a half hour, both of which are not hard to come by with the given staff.
That post is Bullshit.

Maybe you are unaware but we now have at least 2 special threads for posting this type of spam. The Official Troll Tread, and the Official Flaming Thread.
Unless you have something useful to say, (or have actually taken the time to check out the current QC situation,) Please don't go around shooting off you mouth without any facts to back it up. The truth is, that currently more QCers are needed at Live-eviL in general to help speed along releases of this and many other series.
I've looked at 10, and, honestly... QCers are not what we need. Now, About the only one I'll believe if they said we need more Qcers is Yaoiboy, as its absolute Bullshit as far as I can see. It doesnt matter how many QCers ganked the shit out of that ep, it still wouldnt fix the primary issue; TL FIXING.
If you think you can fix a non QC issue with QCers, then youre an idiot, but its not like i needed any more proof or assurance of that.
If you want to blame or demonize me, go ahead; it doesn't solve anything. What GE is missing is a fully competant, non-trainee fixer, and that is work that an average QCer just isn't capable of - that is not an insult, its just the facts.
...don't bother about Masa, he will be a hopeless troll wherever he goes, cause he has nothing better to do and never ever cares about other ppl's feelings and his retardedness leaves nothing to the imagination.
*sigh*
Or... am I barking up the wrong tree here? Is this show not as good as I think? Are we wasting our time with it? ?????? ??? It's the best show, but everything else you say I have to agree.
I have found someone willing to do T/L work for GE999.
His name is Nakagawa Masahiro.
I was kinda hoping that I would have been bitched at on a regular basis for raws but it's been months since I last did some raw ripping :/
-gumbaloom
It is kinda disappointing that I blew a tone of $$$ around xmas 05 to buy the first half of the GE999 to provide a reliable raw source for GE999 (apart from Tofu) and as of today theres only 2 releases eps to show for that investment.

Guess what everyone? Episode 10 was released today!!!!! Lets all do the happy dance! ;D ;D ;D ;D
I looked from matsumoto bot @ #live-evil and torrents from animesuki, only EP 9 there.
Excellent news everyone! :D We got our Galaxy Express 999 translator back!:) :D ;D WELCOME BACK!!! ;D :D :)[/size]
Why Tofu...?!?!?!?! :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
Something happened?!? Can someone let me know what is up?

Oh. Gumbaloom set me straight.
Thanks.
Dude contact me via AIM or MSN and we'll talk there.

What Tofu?

TOFU can also be a military slang acronym, see FUBAR;
-me falls out of her chair laughing! ;D :D ;D :D
you! :P
You know, judging from the number of views this thread gets, I'd expect this series to be one of Live-eviL's most popular downloads. Kinda funny how it doesn't actually seem to work that way... ???
The American release was of the actual movies not just 'movies' cut together form the TV series like other classic animeAre you sure, I mean pertaining to the Sci-fi channel releases? I've been watching the fansub, and I've basicly seen a stretched version of what was shown on Sci-fi. I saw the same thing happen to Iria:Zeiram the Animation. They took the 6 episode series, and shortened it into a movie, which paraphrased what had happened, and leaving out some of the character development that occured in the full version.
The movies are a re-telling of the story, but they are ALL BRAND NEW ANIMATION, SOUND, and...No not characters...the Idea of Matsumoto and new characters in one sentence is....mystifying.
hmm animelover *changed* this time without his **henshin**?! :o

P.S.
Tetsuro is in for a REAL wild ride in #14 :P ;)
I was very surprised with him in episode 13.
He dove out behind some rocks
tossed a flash bang
then blasted a bunch of people
Tetsuro can kick some ass.
Regarding Episode 13:
<suzaku> AND IT MUTHA F***ING WORKS!!!
* MazoneMayu covers his ears against all the swearing suz is about to unleash
<suzaku> GOD DAMN IT.. to think all the F***ING time I wasted with #13 after wuping to 1.10 before starting with it!
* Sun_Tze covers every kids ears in the room
<suzaku> kids?
<suzaku> where?
* suzaku is childless.. no kids here
<MazoneMayu> my kid just went to bed so it's safe here :p
<Tsubasa> suz has the Tetsuro after effects on her
<suzaku> a smart mouth little brat who has an unhealthy realationship with an very odd woman old enough to be his mama?
<Tsubasa> unhealthy realationship?
<suzaku> you gotta wonder :P
Regarding Episode 14:
<suzaku> holy crap!
<suzaku> RULE #1
<suzaku> DON'T F*** WITH TETSURO!! :P
Maybe Maetel is slipping him acid in his food or something ;D
Well if Maetal did slip acid to Toshiro's food, then it'd mean he is the dude who died. ??? That can't happen can it? ;D Protagonist gone = end of show. :P
-Tsubasa
LSD acid. Not burning acid.
Blonde moment!!!! LOL ;D Tsubasa you are so kawaii sometimes! :D
If you only knew how much this current topic ironically mirrors events in #14!
:D :D
I think I'll post a screen cap! :P

Plastic spoilers! :o

Hmm, when updating the front page, there was a tag that said "add image" or something like that. I decided not to try it, because I'd probably screw something up. Of course, all the other posts ended up going wacky instead, so... :P
Regardless, this is actually a very cute show, despite the Tetsuro nudity. I'm glad I've had the opportunity to see it, because it's not something that I would have normally downloaded and watched. And I know how hard Suz is working on it, so props to her and the rest of the GE999 staff on a job well done. :)
Tetsuro nudity. >_<
I require more Maetel nudity to make up for this. You hear?
So.. everytime you hear moonlight sonata, tetsuro's nakedness will haunt you? :P
I'll see what I can do :PCCCOOOSSSMMMMOOO SUPER CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D
At least you did not have to deal with,,, Cosmo Super Car! :'( :'( ::)
Nudity is part of life, learn to accept and live with it children. 8)
-Tsubasa
96 more eps to go o_o;
So, in Episode 17, Nutal is played by Kiyoshi Kobayashi, right?
I love this series too. There's so many series from Matsumoto that are awesome. Hope we can keep bringing more out.
~Vash~
First off: Massive thanks for subbing Galaxy Express and so many other shows! ;D
Second: In July we where told episode 20 should be out "RSN"...
I'm not asking when it's done, and I'm not telling you to speed up, because... well, because that'd be stupid ^^
But I'd like to ask for a status-update! Really missing GE here :'(
/me has her paws deep in 22 at the moment :P
21 soon out soon.
anyone noticed the opening soundtrack of GR is in this ep? has it always been in GE or did I miss out on it before?
i wanted to see this anime ever since i played very rare arcade game called Freedom Fighter at arcade event last summer.
Do you have the raws for the Galaxy Express 999 TV specials like the longer version of the emeraldas story and are you planing on subing them too.
Thanks for this two eps!! [:perchut2] In a few time time, you'll have released 1/4 of this series.
That would be great!
WOOT! have been waiting for ages for next episode but I never excepted TWO of them! AWESOME!
THANKS A MILLION! [:perchut2]
thanks! for EP 27! good one! great job as usual
Thank you for your efforts all those years, to bring us one of Matsumoto masterpieces, the notorius series: "Galaxy Express 999". You did an excellent job and I loved every single episode you released. You gave me lot of personal Joy the last 4 years and that is priceless!
Live eviL was the last hope to let us watch this series. And now, we, the ones not located on U.S.A. or Canada, don't have any hope. Sorry that I'm not feeling happy like you, for this lovely thing that just happened. But, the 1/3 of the series is more than no episodes at all. So, I'm not negative at all. Only sad.
At least you manage to finish Captain Harlock just in time! And I bet, that many non North Americans, gonna keep sharing your amazing and excellent work, for a long long time. If a single Matsumoto fan out there, in any corner of this planet, wish to watch Captain Harlock, I'm sure there will always be a way to watch it through the alternative you provided to us, his worldwide fans!
Thank you and keep up your good work with the rest of your projects! I'll keep an eye on them!
You know, I just thought I'd point out that, just because these are exclusive to the US/Canada right now, it doesn't mean that'll always be the case.Yeah, but there's no guarantee that they won't, either. I honestly think this is terrible what crunchyroll has done, leaving fans outside their service with no options. Fansubbers like live-evil should stand up to them and continue to sub for the region-locked areas. That way they just might reconsider. And, yes, before anyone points it out, I know it's Toei that region-locks the shows. But still, the same principile applies.

Well, since that's not going to happen, maybe said fans should try doing something for themselves to make these shows available in their own region(s).
Well, since that's not going to happen, maybe said fans should try doing something for themselves to make these shows available in their own region(s).What would you have us do?
I still have the few post episode-36 Galaxy Express subtitle files that were made available on ScriptClub, and have feverously spent the last couple of nights refining their formatting and timing them all, so that could make a half-decent start to such an endeavour for us Crunchyroll-impaired individuals.
The translations for those few episodes are clearly more primitive translations than Live-Evil's GE999 efforts were before they pulled out, but they're better than nothing. Anyone that wants all these timed scripts for any reason can PM me.
What would you have us do?
That isn't what I had in mind, but whatever...Maybe we could start a new movement: The Galaxy Express Sufferagets and throw ourselves under their speeding flash player. LOL.
I really don't know. If it can be licensed/made available in one region, it can be licensed/made available in another. Easier said than done, sure. But there's a better chance of something happening along those lines than of l-e continuing the series, so...
Let's get some facts: The Raws of the Galaxy Express 999 episodes are out there. R2 DVDs are also exists for those who wish to buy them. So, what we basic need are the english subtitles.
Why? If you're going to sub to a particular language, start with the Japanese. Oh, yes, I know what the response to this will be... "Nobody here speaks Japanese, but everyone knows English."If you take that approach to life, there may come a day when you need major surgery: will you perform it yourself or leave it to someone who knows what they're doing? I thought so.
We have the same problem here. Pre-licensing, it was solved by fansubbing. If you guys all love GE999 as much as you say you do, why not sub it yourselves? It's a lot more work than whining about it here, but the end result will be better. :)

Wow, I returned to LE to find out all this stuff about one of my favorite shows... this pretty much sucks for everyone involved. I live in America but I'm not sure I want to throw money at Crunchyroll to be able to watch my anime, because it doesn't seem like a very stable site IMO... how have they not been sued yet? O_O
And anyway... isn't it kind of ironic that suddenly everybody's getting all possessive with the show, when it was Live-Evil that helped make it so popular anyway? Meh... I just want a DVD release, it's all I ever wanted with Harlock/GE999/etc. I'd totally buy DVD's, but I don't want to buy streaming anime. -_-
Same here... For me the main difference between a proper DVD-Release and Crunchyblargh is the avaliability.
I live in Austria, so I can't stream that stuff ( also I wouldn't want to pay them for streaming ) - DVDs on the other hand can be imported from nearly everywhere ( if you have the connections ) and I'd pay any price for a GE999 DVD-Set!
Crunchyroll has stalled at episode 62.
Think about that for a second... In the 6 or 7 years since we started this project, we released 30 somethins episodes, whereas Crunchyroll has had over 60 in 2 months and yet you call that stalled?
As for the region lock, there's nothing we can do about that, but obviously there's demand for it elsewhere, so rather than complaining to us about it, why not talk to people and try to get it licensed in your area? Sure, it's not that simple, but complaining here won't accomplish anything.
Anyways, I'm not saying you should start fansubbing or anything, but seriously, you have plenty of options.Just what would these options be? Write emails to toei & crunchyroll? Done that. Post comments on their forums? Done that. Watch illegally via a proxy? No good as you can only watch the timed free-to-view episodes which take an age to become available. I want to be able to pay to watch when I want. Not everybody has the means to go to america to watch, and if you were seriously suggesting that as a legitimate solution, then I think a reality check is needed. Bottom line IMHO, Toei did this to kill the fansub, they don't give a crap about genuine fans and live-evil folded on the fansub far too easily. They should've continued the fansub untill episodes were made available for everyone and yet I've never heard anyone from live-evil explain why this didn't happen.
...and live-evil folded on the fansub far too easily. They should've continued the fansub untill episodes were made available for everyone and yet I've never heard anyone from live-evil explain why this didn't happen.
Whoa, wait right there!Well why didn't heart of madness get shut down? They didn't stop subbing Hokuto No Ken aka Fist Of The North Star after Toei licensed it in the US and they are still going and have completed all 152 episodes. They are an example of what a fansub group should be like, they stuck with their project until the very end.
Are you suggesting the people here at L-E should have done something that could get them shut down just because Toei are a bunch of arseholes?
The Live-eviL stuff explained exactly WHY they canned GE999 and Harlock - because they got licensed. Period.
None of us are happy with how this turned out, but don't blame L-E!
it's L-Es policy to drop projects once they get licensed and I respect that.But it's hypocritical: they drop it after it's licensed in the US but not europe, yet they happily subbed it whilst it was licensed in Japan. The USA is not the whole world, only an increasingly marginalised part thereof.

The USA is not the whole world, only an increasingly marginalised part thereof.'Licensed in the US' is a group policy, that stems from the fact that most members of the group, including the most illustrious mascot and leader, are in the US. If a group from one of those non-licensed reasons wants to do it, that is their perogative. He cannot offer direct assistance to such, but for what it's worth, they can have his blessing and moral support.

why would Toei spend who knows how much money to have these episodes translated just "to kill the fansub" when a simple cease and desist would do the trick?We all know a c&d without a viable alternative to the fansub would in 9 out of 10 cases go unheeded. Indeed, Rumbel have continued to sub Gintama after it being licensed for streaming via crunchyroll and phantom subs plan to continue subbing Hitman Reborn after getting a c&d to stop. In fact, since they recieved their c&d, about 3 other subbers have continued the show in defiance of the c&d's.

Let's look at the stuff we keep working with instead of the past, lots of goodies out there! :)
With respect, if kaleyboy or anyone else wants to watch Galaxy Express 999, they have every right to watch the series of their choice and not watch an alternative instead.I guess I have to agree with you and hope that Toei sees the light and shows europe some love. Hope Harlock SSX continues here. . .
Also on that note, to kaleyboy and everyone else thinking about pestering Live-Evil to try and make them change their mind - give up. I certainly know I'm giving up. I won't of course, let their edict in the face of Crunchyroll's "licensing" of the series stop me from trying to obtain Galaxy Express 999 episodes with English subs. But neither Live-Evil, Crunchyroll or indeed Toei themselves are either willing or able to do anything about letting people access the series in those few countries outside of the U.S. and Canada.
The only alternative that should be heartily recommended would be to obtain some way of masking one's IP address and circumventing either Crunchyroll's or Direct2Drive's website that way, signing up again through such a method, and simply grab the episodes yourself. It's clear that Toei simply doesn't care, and neither does anyone else. I know it's not fair that we have to jump through so many hoops to actually watch Galaxy Express, but there really is no other way, nor will there be in the future unless Crunchyroll pushes Toei to give them a worldwide license for the series, which is extremely unlikely since they've got so many of the big Japanese companies eating out of their hands due to their new region-locks, etc.
Therefore, I'd suggest that discussion here goes from simply complaining about the lack of Galaxy Express torrents to simply listing which borderline-illegal ways us Europeans can get remote access to Crunchyroll's or Direct2Drive's websites. I myself am looking at using Hide My IP, which is a pay program. However, let's face it, in the face of Toei's obstinacy, no price is too small to pay to get Galaxy Express! :)
If anyone has any other working methods, please let us know!
any word on when or if the dvd's are coming out? if so links please.
