GAH!

Does anyone know why Shinsen-subs has moved Code Geass to their "On Hold" category? They've just updated that this week. The only reason I could think of for them to do so is that somewhere they heard its in planning to be licensed? (I haven't heard that -- anyone?)

(For that matter, they've suddenly dropped Darker Than Black, which while not related to this comm, also confuses me for the same reason as I haven't heard anything about licensing for that one either.) -- ANSWERED! THX!

Anyone know what's up?

(Hi, I'm Ankhi, btw.)

Syndicate = Shinsen, hence the "*winkwink*" .^^;

Oh.. Okay, but since I'm not at all fond of Shinsen's DtB team I still am not going to DL them unless I'm desperate..not that I think that Shinsen as a whole sucks

Their work or the team? .o.o
I think Shinsen's translations are the best for this series but that's just me. (And trust me, I'm VERY picky when it comes to translations.) Plus 175MB HD encodes! .*_________*

As Shinsen is a very big team, there are bound to be really good ones and there are also some so-so..but I don't like the team they put up for DtB..

I don't know what your criteria for trans are but some of Shinsen's make my head hurt..or sound a bit off upon comparison to the original context of the Japanese and as I'm quite the reader, I'm more than critical of nuances and such. I'm not saying that they're translating it wrong, just that it could be phrased and worded better..

I see. I think the team is fine, and have I mentioned the 175MB HD encodes!? X.D

I know what you mean; there were parts of some episodes that I would have changed a bit myself. *used to TC, which is why she's so picky* But Shinsen does a generally good job and out of the other groups subbing the series, they're definitely the best imho.

Ah well, to each their own.
