Sonic Soldier Borgman - Episode 21

Image
  https://nyaa.si/view/1619636 Fansub credits can be found in the link above. After the shitshow that was episodes 19 & 20...we're finally back on track quality-wise! Here's Episode 21, where Shinji stumbles upon a weird starfish that seems to grant him super strength...at the cost of him slowly descending into a more evil version of himself. Furthermore, he uses the starfish to control his friends and eventually the rest of his classroom... GET THE TEAR-GAS GRENADES OUT!

Mr. Pen Pen (1986)

Image
  https://nyaa.si/view/1618768 Fansub credits can be found in the link above. Here's an English fansub of something I've been eyeing for a while now! Mr. Pen Pen , a TV special based off the manga of the same name by  Mayumi Muroyama. Pen Pen, the prince of Penguin Land, is sent over to little Mika's household for a temporary study session in order to learn more about the human kingdom—of course, this does not turn out as expected and Mika & Pen Pen get into all sorts of misadventures alongside Pen Pen's companions. Don't take my word for it, but based off what I searched online, this was never released on any form of home media at all until it was remastered in HD and put up on Amazon Prime JP—the folks at ATTKC ripped it, which is the source used for this fansub. There is a 2nd part to this TV special which aired months later within the same year—I have also gotten this translated too but I will need some more time to look at it before I throw it up online.  E

Mori no Tonto-tachi - Episode 19 (16mm HD 1080p Scan)

Image
  https://nyaa.si/view/1618168 Fansub credits can be found in the link above. Another collab with Kineko Video. This time it's an English fansub of a random episode from Mori no Tonto-tachi , a Shaft-animated TV anime about the adventures of Santa Claus and his elf friends who live in a forest somewhere in Finland. In this episode, Santa & friends head out to the nearby forest to help out the animals who were poorly affected by a recent strong blizzard. Only a handful of episodes from this show were ever released on DVD & VHS—I haven't been able to thoroughly confirm this but I believe the episode here is one of the many episodes from the show that was never released on home media. No clue if they ever will get released, but for now this is as good as it gets!

Sonic Soldier Borgman - Episodes 19 & 20

Image
https://nyaa.si/view/1617682 https://nyaa.si/view/1617683 Fansub credits can be found in the links above. I don't typically upload two episodes at once, but unfortunately I had to make an exception with these two. The plan was to just upload 19 yesterday but after seeing how much worse 20 was than 19, I didn't want people to waste a week waiting for an episode that they think would pick up in quality again, so I've decided to include these two together to save them the misery of waiting. Episode 19 has Ryo & Chuck coming in to save Anice after she discovers an underground structure which bears a resemblance to a certain Megalo building. Episode 20 has Ryo befriending a blind girl whom he saves one day and asking for Memory's assistance in helping her get her eyesight back. Storyline-wise, both episodes are okay but the animation dips like fucking crazy. 20 suffers the most from this—the characters are so off-model it's not even funny. Tread with caution!

Choriki Robo Galatt - Episode 14

Image
  https://nyaa.si/view/1615556 Fansub credits can be found in the link above. The final chapter in the Space Arc! Michael and friends, still stranded on planet Peanut, stumble upon a Wild West-like town holding a bounty for the criminal Ryan—with no fuel and no money, they take it upon themselves to track him down in order to receive the bounty's huge reward.

Sonic Soldier Borgman - Episode 18

Image
https://nyaa.si/view/1614287 Fansub credits can be found in the link above. A red star mysteriously looms over Megalo City's space block, and so Borgman is dispatched to investigate the situation when a new demon refuses to let anyone gain entry into the building. No spoilers, but a flashback into Memory's past with her and several of her colleagues is also revealed here...

D-1 Devastator 02

Image
  https://nyaa.si/view/1612968 Continuation of a joint collab project with InkaSubs. This is episode 2 of D-1 Devastator...and the final one. I had already written previously in the blog post for Episode 1 that this was meant to be a multi-media franchise but didn't go as planned due to Takara's incompetency. I won't spoil anything, but you can kind of see this based off the way this ended. And the fact they needed to put in a trailer for Episode 1...at the end of Episode 2 of all things...💀 I don't hate  this OVA, I'll give it that. But I really wish Takara would have gotten its shit together and treated this right.  Anyways, enjoy.

Sonic Soldier Borgman - Episode 17

Image
  https://nyaa.si/view/1611938 Fansub credits can be found in the link above. Chuck meets the gorgeous Miki Katsura one day and the two agree to go on a date together...at a museum where its owner was attacked by demons the day before—which the two know about. Coincidence? To make things worse, Shinji and Molly follow them to record their date for the school newspaper...surely nothing bad will happen this time!!

Tantei Monogatari - Episode 1

Image
https://nyaa.si/view/1611646 Fansub credits can be found in the link above. New fansub project! This is the first episode of "Tantei Monogatari", a 1979 TV show starring Yusaku Matsuda as Shunsaku Kudou,  a private  detective who solves various cases in Japan—much to the dismay of the police force who view him as nothing more than a nuisance. The ways in which he becomes involved with such cases vary throughout the episodes, some even through unusual means... Based off the trailers I've seen for this show (and after having watched the first episode), the show is mostly comedic than your typical hardboiled show  à la Seibu Keisatsu—still, don't let that deter you from enjoying this! That is exactly what gives the show its charm and IMO makes it easily recommendable to other people. This is...probably the most difficult work I've tackled yet. Due to the show being a Toei production, the audio is optical-based and as a result suffers from the worst-sounding quality i

Getter Robo Go - Episode 14

Image
  https://nyaa.si/view/1609924 Fansub credits can be found in the link above. Randou's henchmen send out a new enemy to infiltrate Big NISAR, this time one that's capable of cloning anyone it wishes. It takes on the identity of a newly-stationed mechanic for Getter Robo—Gou and friends are able to take it down, but they are seemingly too late, as the clone has already planted a bomb inside one of the Getter Machines. And just as the Getter crew find out, another Metal Beast immediately appears to attack HQ...oh, the suspense!! On a slightly-related note: You may have read elsewhere that I intended to release the show's first batch after the release of Episode 14. TL;DR — expect the batch to go up in January if I'm not able to make the December release for whatever reason. I've actually already went and fixed all the changes needed for the 1st batch, but I will have to re-watch the episodes again to check for any timing changes I may want to make, amongst other thing

Sonic Soldier Borgman - Episode 16

Image
https://nyaa.si/view/1609207 Fansub credits can be found in the link above. Chuck volunteers to act as the main lead in an upcoming action movie, only to find out (to his dismay) that his role is nothing more than a simple stuntman job. However, the movie set doesn't look as normal as it seems, and something evil lurks behind the scenes...  

Getter Robo Go - Episode 13

Image
https://nyaa.si/view/1608864 Fansub credits can be found in the link above. The final episode (out of three) that introduces the new mecha variations of Getter Robo—Gai's mecha is finally introduced in this episode. The enemies send out a new Metal Beast that can dig its way underground, and as such uses its abilities to infiltrate Big NISAR in an attempt to take it down—luckily, Gai's mecha is specifically designed for underground & underwater combat, and is tasked with fighting the Metal Beast. However, due to his past failure from having piloted Getter Robo Go, he's unsure whether he can pull it off or not... FYI: Starting this episode, I've officially decided to remove all instances of "nyaa" and "woof" from the two tiny NISAR professors in the show whose names elude me right now. I'll go into detail on this later when I eventually release the show's first batch in the near future.
