OK, this episode is strange. For the most part, the entire episode is shown in some shade of brown, going from white to black.
Songs will be translated, not karaoked.

for the insert song i dont really care, works both ways, but as for the ending please re-do it, the fact that it is english just makes it easier to sing along
December 9th, 2008 at 4:56 pm
insert song i don’t care, end song its in english no need to put fancy effects on it we can all understand it as is.
December 9th, 2008 at 5:15 pm
LOL. Every week they come up with ways to make it harder for you guys…
I dont really mind. You can do as you like or as most ppl want it to be.
December 9th, 2008 at 5:17 pm
for the insert song, i would rather like with both kara and translation, but no need for fancy effects…
regarding the ED song, i don’t really care, since the lyrics are the same as OP and in english.
December 9th, 2008 at 5:19 pm
For the insert I’d say go with having a translation and karaoke, but of course no fancy effects.
just do whatever’s easiest while still keeping up the quality!
And for the ED, just a basic kara would be fine if it’s already english
December 9th, 2008 at 5:19 pm
Any idea when will Skip Beat episode 10 will come.
Thx in advance.
December 9th, 2008 at 5:22 pm
1: Translation is fine, karaoke would just be fun, but not necessary
2: Please redo this, it’s much better then =)
December 9th, 2008 at 5:38 pm
The insert song would be nice to have translated but if karaoke is awkward for this type of song, then forget it.
It was mentioned in a previous post that there were more effects you have available when it comes to the style of the subtitles. As a result, I would love to see what effect you put with the new ED.
As always, thanks for keeping my days full of anime and thanks for the hard work, especially on ~ef~.
December 9th, 2008 at 5:40 pm
i like the ending re-ktimed,encoded. Opening just translated
December 9th, 2008 at 5:49 pm
I think OP should be just translated and no fancy stuff.
The ED, just re time it since its a different pace and no new effect
Keep up the excellent work guys
December 9th, 2008 at 5:56 pm
I say the same as ascendancy
“1: Translation is fine, karaoke would just be fun, but not necessary
2: Please redo this, it’s much better then =)”
December 9th, 2008 at 6:03 pm
Personaly, I don’t much care for karaoke in the first place. I can’t sing in English why would I try to do it in Japaneese? If you realy want karaoke in a song it should be in a seperate file so the real kara-fans can watch it over and over while the rest of us don’t have to see exploding kanji taking over the scene.
/rant
sorry, just had to get that out. But seriously, you’re the ones making the effort to sub these shows for us, do whatever the hell you want.
@ralph: when they’re damn good and ready. Get over it!
December 9th, 2008 at 6:24 pm
IMO sepia effect (like an old photo) is supposed to accent the past tense plus to provide better contrast for Kaze’s violin. Though I’d prefer old movie effect (like they did in the very end of this ep.).
As for your questions..
1. Insert song: both lyrics & translations, don’t care about any effects.
2. OP=ED: do everything like it’s general OP/ED (since it IS so), probably with another effect if it’s meant to match background.
P.S. What about ep.9 line/char mismatch at ~4:20 (see comments in ep.9 thread)?
December 9th, 2008 at 6:28 pm
I think that you should just do whatever goes fastest. Just an English translation in normal subtitle form for the insert and just re-time the op song subtitles for the ending.
December 9th, 2008 at 6:37 pm
Black, white, and brown shades, huh? I am so looking forward to this.
1. ktime & translation
2. re-ktime it, apply an entirely new effect
December 9th, 2008 at 7:11 pm
I want a kara for the insert song, definitely.
December 9th, 2008 at 7:17 pm
Hey guys, why are you asking?
You do it anyway like you want.
But I have to say that you did a great job with the
upside down opening from the last episode.
December 9th, 2008 at 7:26 pm
1.) Jjust translating it is fine. No real need to go the trouble of KT for an insert (can’t really think of anything else to call it.)
2.) Re-time the OP.
December 9th, 2008 at 7:56 pm
1. Karaoke is great so it would be good to put it here (but it’s not necessary)
2. Re-time it please
I’m looking foward for this ep!
December 9th, 2008 at 8:39 pm
1. Don’t care for karaoke, so a simple translation will do.
2. No point, it’s in english anyway
PS: Major “Deja Vu” feeling.
Also, why the hell am I posting? I’m on the staff.
December 9th, 2008 at 8:47 pm
Don’t care about insert karaoke. But please let us see the new OP but karaoke is not needed.
You guys are doing great so the real decision is up to you!
THANKS for a great show!!!!!
December 9th, 2008 at 8:48 pm
BTW, what does ” {\kf} ” mean?
December 9th, 2008 at 9:04 pm
when will it be out subbed.just to anxious to watch
December 9th, 2008 at 9:16 pm
even know i probably wont be able to watch,to sad
December 9th, 2008 at 9:29 pm
I think for bote translation is fine but it’s you guys own option,
I just hope you’re release makes me cry (why am I hoping this T__T) but I hope it!
December 9th, 2008 at 10:15 pm
lol sepia
cool effects, aniki
December 9th, 2008 at 10:15 pm
I think you should blaster the screen with “penis”, like this: http://ichigo69.mayulive.com/images/ef10.jpg
December 9th, 2008 at 10:17 pm
^
needed moer penis karaoke, tho.
its lack was a sad disappointment
December 9th, 2008 at 10:20 pm
^
qft. srsly needed moar man meat.
December 9th, 2008 at 10:21 pm
I want ten dollars.
And fuck penis karaokes. Vagina karaokes are better.
December 9th, 2008 at 10:31 pm
1. kara + translation
2. re-time, new FX optional
December 9th, 2008 at 10:37 pm
1. translation is fine
2. re-time plz!!
December 10th, 2008 at 12:17 am
My votes:
1. just a translation is fine
2. no need to do anything since it’s the same song and English
December 10th, 2008 at 1:33 am
1. k-time and translations
2. don’t really care…it would be interesting to see who you guys adapt to the effects though
December 10th, 2008 at 1:44 am
o.o i say just sub the anime like how u sub it
don’t change anything, i mean u said it yourself it’s in english so what’s the sense
if u could have speak japanese wud it matter if there was k-time or not
December 10th, 2008 at 1:49 am
Thursday? But I want it now! :’{
December 10th, 2008 at 1:49 am
TL the insert song, and retime the ED.
Majority rules though…
December 10th, 2008 at 3:03 am
Why don’t you guys make a poll or something. You can see what everyone votes.
For me, I don’t mind what you do.
December 10th, 2008 at 3:13 am
insert song: translation is fine, adding a simple karaoke effect that follows the song may make it more smooth imo.
OP/ED song: skip it over but do retime if it can be done fast.
December 10th, 2008 at 3:36 am
the anticipation is killing me!
thanks a lot Chihiro for the great subs though ^_^
really really appreciate it.
December 10th, 2008 at 3:59 am
“OK, this episode is strange” … all the episodes of EF are strange…
December 10th, 2008 at 5:33 am
^^
Die with your fucked up spam.
People don’t even mention the penis karaoke, it was so degrading for an anime like this =(
December 10th, 2008 at 7:43 am
I agree with ascendancy about CoalGuys’ karaoke. That was pretty lame. Episode 10 is strange, but beautiful in all its… well, yeah. You’ll see. It really beats up at the heart.
December 10th, 2008 at 12:04 pm
So you wait to episode 10 and decide no more kara? Should have just done normal translations from the beginning instead of getting lazy toward the end.
December 10th, 2008 at 4:44 pm
i want it now~~
December 10th, 2008 at 10:28 pm
Who cares ’bout the inserted songs kara xD
The important thing is that we’ll be getting the episode soon ^^
December 10th, 2008 at 10:53 pm
@ObrokenO: I highly doubt it’s merely laziness or anything like that. Chihiro asked for our opinion on what we preferred, and the karas were appreciated throughout the series. I personally think preserving as much of the RAW is appreciated to indulge in the essence of episode 10 for ef. Especially the ending. As for the insert song, it’s not that long, and a translation is sufficient enough.
December 10th, 2008 at 10:54 pm
ObrokenO:
You are a dumbass. It’s the same song that was the opening for the past 8 episodes. Honestly, we shouldn’t even need to sub it. It’s English, plus, if you REALLY want to sing along that badly, which personally I never found that karas help me sing along, go watch one of the other 8 episodes that have this OP in it. Besides, if you’re going to complain just go download the other group’s penis kara.
December 11th, 2008 at 2:28 am
The whole “shade of brown” thing intrigues me. I like the way they do the animations for ef.
December 11th, 2008 at 4:16 am
@Soichiro
Go eat a dick. You people pretty much ruin every show with your messed up encodes “kyo no Go no Ni” fuckin had to give up on that show because It messed up in the middle and torward the end “Can’t even bother to crop the damn thing” Still no v2 for the 2 fucked up episodes 5 and 6. “zettai karen chidren” You wait to fuckin episode 35 to finally add some softsubs (I don’t understand what I’m talking about on this sentence) but the bitrate is so low I still see blocks “pfft” I mean seriously lol. I’m not tryin to troll ya but don’t act like your the shit with me and definitely callin “meH” a dumbass. You guys finally do some nice work on ef and then you decide to “ok kara is going to take away the dramatic epicness from this scene” wah wah” I’m a bitchy leecher. Thats all I’m saying. I really couldn’t give a FLYING FUCK if you decided to soft or kara “P.S. I watch coalguys ef subs to ftr because I like dick in my mouth.”
December 11th, 2008 at 5:42 am
@ObrokenO: If they suck what are you doing here then?
You don’t have to watch anything from chihiro. They just do it cause there are people who want to. And they don’t do the karaoke cause they thought maybe the fans didn’t want it.
And bringing coal guys in. You think a cumming penis karaoke is funny? I don’t think it is for this series. An ecchi anime ok, but this. They just fuck with the godlyness of this series. And their subs are not nearly as good chihiro’s for this series. They encodes are sefinately decent enough. Ok there is of course improvement with more filtering and adjusting. But what a hell of work is that for a little more blackness. And do it better if you dont like it.
December 11th, 2008 at 6:31 am
@ascendancy
Here’s another sad sheep that doesn’t understand lawlz “I love this shit” didn’t I say they did a good job of the ef series in my last post??? “DIDN’T I??? YES I DID. I said I couldn’t give a rats ass about the opening but I figure they should at least go all the way 100% with this show seeing how all the others are really ridiculous (actually I don’t remember where I said this, but I like making shit up so I can look like a pussy ass nigger bitch). This is first release since Vampire Knight I’ve seen them do a good job. “STOP fuckin scanning through my comments and read the whole thing. “To quote the comment about coalguys” I actually found it funny because I was born with something called “sense of humor” even though I know ef isn’t supposed to be a comedy, ef is srs bzns, and plus I have a godly connection so It’s not like I wasted 1 hour downloading it. Only took me 2 min. Plus I do better “believe me” I won’t quote what group I provide distro and editing for though it’s probably Dark-Rebirth or AoShen or another shitty group because honestly I find that even more pointless then me responding to these people and you.
December 11th, 2008 at 6:50 am
If you find it so pointless responding to us, why do you do it?
December 11th, 2008 at 7:14 am
I just happen to like arguments and controversy. Nothing more or nothing less. Why do you defend yourself so adamantly? Why do my words and opinions even matter to you?? Because I speak with some hurtful truths in my statements? If you would have never responded to me this could have bin avoided. I seem to think I am a god.
December 11th, 2008 at 3:19 pm
“You people pretty much ruin every show with your messed up encodes “kyo no Go no Ni” fuckin had to give up on that show because It messed up in the middle and torward the end “Can’t even bother to crop the damn thing” Still no v2 for the 2 fucked up episodes 5 and 6.”
>.>
We did crop it at the end as well. However, that black bar was there because I thought it was supposed to be there (I encoded 9 and 10) instead of cropping out part of the picture. I only learned about it a few days ago.
With 5 and 6, who is saying that we aren’t making v2’s of them?
December 11th, 2008 at 4:30 pm
@Kristen
Well at least the leader is more nice and level headed so I’ll apologize for some of my previous comments “even though someone edited some my words” I remember a couple of weeks ago posting that those 2 Kyo no Go no Ni episodes where a bit buggy. I couldn’t even finish watching it towards the end. Happy to hear your providing a v2 because I would really like to catch up on the series and your doing a good job with ef series. Even though that show makes me seriously think like “what the hell is meaning behind this anime lol” . Every character has some major issues but the storyline has me hooked
December 11th, 2008 at 4:42 pm
We’ve have v2’s on our plate since episode 9 aired, but that ended up having some h.264 issues.
We are intending to make v2’s of the following:
Kyou no Go no Ni 05
Kyou no Go no Ni 06
Penguin Musume Heart 21
We are not intending to make v2’s of the following:
Kyou no Go no Ni 01-04, 07, 08 ( Some people claim issues with TL or editing)
Kyou no Go no Ni 09-10 (Cropping issues)
Skip Beat 05 (Encoding issues)
December 11th, 2008 at 5:21 pm
Well I’ll be waiting patiently for those episodes. Sadly this series has 0 pantsu compared to the OVA. It’s almost exactly the same in alot of ways except they actually look like elementary school kids now.
December 11th, 2008 at 5:29 pm
Uhmm, just one question what timezoon are you Realising from?
December 11th, 2008 at 5:33 pm
EST
Also, ObrokenO, I don’t know how patient you’ll have to be. Lossless for Kyou no Go no Ni 05 has 3 hours 45 minutes on it, then ~2 for an h.264, then UL time (God knows how long). I’m just going to v2 the h.264, since the XviD was fine. Then I want to encode the Yozakura Quartet 06 lossless, followed by Kyou no Go no Ni 06 (Another 4+2+UL). So, maybe done tomorrow?
December 11th, 2008 at 7:28 pm
its to hard to watch this anime again after 10
December 11th, 2008 at 9:00 pm
OMG EST?!
thats -6h from where I live <.<
December 11th, 2008 at 9:16 pm
“EST”? I suppose it’s rather US than Australia time zone, so it’s GMT/UTC-5, right? Then “11:14 AM” above is supposed to mean “2008-12-11 16:14 UTC”.. Guys, you should either use time zone everyone knows of (like tokyotosho does) or use dates only… Why add more confusion to our lives?
December 11th, 2008 at 9:19 pm
..oh, and will you finally fix that “Published by Kristen on Dec 9th, __2007__ in ef – a tale of melodies with 64 Comments” on the top of this/each page? Thanks.
