Sayonara Zetsubo Sensei sub project

This project was initially suggested by Smidge204.
Since nobody is taking up the challenge to sub this excellent anime, why not have BT do it? Smidge is willing to get serious about this if we get a translator, and we have members that would be willing to do the timing, type setting, and the kareoke.

anime?
Do you really want to sub an anime? I mean we talking about the cut throat, live fast, die fast world of Anime subbing.
I dunno about you, but I think unless you got the commitment, persistence & willingness to put up with the stress....what are you doing at B-T?
Seriously, dunno why people want to stress and put up with the crap that people throw at fan-subber, nor the "1337" attitude a certain vocal majority of them seem to enjoy showing off.
however,
As Comrade Big Boss has always been about novels, it is hard to see if he would want our name to be associated with fan subbing, but then again he did not object to the interactive novel project.
The wikicommunist B-T is for the people and therefore we will not immediately disregard the idea.
however it will have to have considerable discussion and debate before anything can be formally accepted and submitted to Comrade Big Boss for
"subjective recommendation".....

You say that but they've already started timing the OP.

To be honest, Smidge is probably serious enough to start his own group for SZS (if he isn't allowed to put B-T's name to it). He's even got a translator.
I don't think you can stop him if you wanted to. :/
Heck, Smidge has gotten a TLer, an Editor, a Timer, a Karaoke person, and a Typesetter. If you go to the channel, the general consensus is that they want to do it. In fact, I personally want to see SZS subbed, so I'm in favor of this project.

Oni: At this rate, it's going to happen.
We're not (or at least, I'm not) doing it for the glory or the reputation - though I won't complain if such things are forthcoming - we're doing it because we want it to be done, and nobody else seems to be doing it.
The only contention on your part is: do we want to associate it with Baka-Tsuki or not? I see no reason not to, since this will undoubtedly be a one-off project and will draw attention to other media forms (novels). Just my $0.02 on that.

no wonder there's no more episodes being released... doh!
If there is such enthusiasm about subbing it, then it comes down to whether B-T wants to be associated/helping/etc with it. It's probably beneficial like Smidge had mentioned as long as the quality is good.
Maybe more idiots bothering the site, oh well we can deal with that.

If you don't mind the releases being slightly later than usual, I can serve as a TL Checker by comparing it to Chinese fansubs (I'll compare it to at least 2 fansub groups)
But of course, if you feel a TL checker isn't necessary (or my TL skills are far too lousy), then it's fine with me too

well my previous post was all personal opinion, if it happens, it happens smidge. but being associated with B-T, whether it's good or not, isn't for me to decide.
After all this is up to comrade Big Boss.
Have you sent him an email about this?
To be honest I can't really predict what he would say.
If you haven't, well...I think it's best that you send one to him.
And when you do get a reply, i would recommend that you post his response on this thread.
personally i think your all raving self-inflicting, mad, mental buggers to want to do this.
but, well, its what you get for steering a ship full of lunatics.....
*slap forehead*
you can have the crew, but never the flag! AAaarr!

YOU e-mail him. You are the official emissary between B-T and TLG, after all.

Yay for wikicommunism!
N/B: Is it just me, or is it just destiny that we always seem to clash with A.F.K.?

Somehow I feel that we already lost the battle of fansubbing.

phew.. it's been really a while since I posted on BT forum.....
hmm, to begin with, have anyone dropped by a.f.k.'s IRC chan(well, they seems to have little method to contact, yet they have a URL for IRC embedded in their releases of zetubou-chan) to ask why they haven't released zetsubou-chan for a month?
I recommend to succeed fansubbing the series from a.f.k. in a modest way. Also, only if based on the reply from them, we can discuss about the series in a productive way.
