Yo, yo, Kana in the house, telling you to vote for her over Chiaki in all things minami-ke!
Anyways…
Please welcome in Sprocket-hole subs, our jointing partner from now on in minami-ke! They are going to help with TLC, editing, and audio encoding, while we will continue to work with translation, timing, video encoding, QC, and editing.
Note: Due to the lower quality of this video we are making a v2.
h.264v2: Here
XviDv2: Here

Why in the shit are you splitting up audio and video encoding.
January 20th, 2009 at 12:50 am
>urine+faeces
That’s a bit harsh, Tandem, Sprocket aren’t that bad.
January 20th, 2009 at 1:05 am
All right! The more the better
January 20th, 2009 at 1:11 am
Kana is #1
To hell with Chiaki, she’s a manipulator that feels the center of this anime.
January 20th, 2009 at 1:12 am
lol, they are and i don’t mind Kristen deleting my post, because I will just post my honest reviews on tosho instead.
And yes Sprocket-Hole is not a good group, it’s a speedsub who makes itself some fanciful name…. More like Virgina-Hole, it sounds better.
January 20th, 2009 at 1:27 am
More importantly, why are you encoding audio at all. I’ve never understood why people feel the need to transcode the ts’s AAC audio into Vorbis (or worse, to a lower-bitrate AAC).
PLEASE DON’T TELL ME AUDIO ENCODING = AC3.
January 20th, 2009 at 2:38 am
Kaoru: No problem. I won’t tell you.
Tandem: You’re welcome to have your opinion. Whether you’re welcome to EXPRESS it is another matter entirely.
Have a swell day.

@IJ. Fine. Dropped your release, just as I don’t like my video raped, I don’t like my audio raped either.
January 20th, 2009 at 3:37 am
Kaoru: I’ll say it to you like I said to Tandem. You are absolutely welcome to have an opinion, while whether you are welcome to express same is something that’s open for debate. Of course, that all depends on the venue.
Have a nice day.

Curous if he’s going to sit in the middle of the living room and hold his breath also.
January 20th, 2009 at 4:12 am
Kana’s also the most changed in this season. At the OP she looks almost like a hot teen…. give it all Kana, and become a hot-air head teen XD
January 20th, 2009 at 4:24 am
Fuck, you guys raped the video this time around. Tone down the noise filtering just a bit. You know you’re going a little bit overboard when solid black lines start to disappear. Besides, we aren’t working with shitty analog sources anymore. We don’t have a need for it at all.
January 20th, 2009 at 12:59 pm
^I had a feeling that might be the case. Blame the raw, since it wasn’t our usual source. I’ll redo the encode, most likely.
January 20th, 2009 at 1:28 pm
You guys suck. Quit bashing.
January 20th, 2009 at 2:48 pm
can some one please tell em what dose “Foiled” mean because i dont know i read the definition but i still dont get what they mean buy saying that in the episode.
January 20th, 2009 at 3:16 pm
I’m absolutely welcome to donate to a website, but whether I ever donate to this website again is open for debate. Is this the way you treat a different opinion?
January 20th, 2009 at 4:55 pm
is this show ecchi?
January 20th, 2009 at 5:02 pm
btw can somebody tell me if there are some more good cute/echhi series like rosario vampire, akikan or asu no yoichi????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????sry for bad english but please help”!..im running out of good animes=(
January 20th, 2009 at 7:06 pm
mew, minami-ke isn’t ecchi.
January 20th, 2009 at 10:20 pm
AC3 is better than HE-AAC at least, thanks for not using that anymore!
January 20th, 2009 at 11:49 pm
@Maniac, LMAO. AC3 is horrible lossy compression, especially at 160kbps even LAME can and probably does sound better, let alone a better, newer format like HE-AAC. This study claims that HE-AAC at 160kbps was better than AC3 at 384kbps: http://cat.inist.fr/?aModele=afficheN&cpsidt=20264329. You can also take a brief look at Hydrogenaudio, anyone will tell you AAC will be far better than AC3 at the same bitrate. I’d trust them over your baseless claim.

IKKKITOUSEN PLEASE! OVA 4!
January 21st, 2009 at 1:19 am
TY
January 21st, 2009 at 2:30 am
i less than 3 (<3) u, chihiro!!
January 21st, 2009 at 3:36 am
Less bicker, more releasing.
January 21st, 2009 at 6:33 am
kaoru, except that you shouldn’t use HE-AAC over bitrates of 96kbps. You should use LC-AAC.
January 21st, 2009 at 3:38 pm
Thx for the release!
January 21st, 2009 at 10:50 pm
I don’t get some people. This is called ”fansubbing” which means people are subbing because they want to. They aren’t getting paid or anything like that. So nagging about bad quality & sound seems pretty ridiculous to me.
If you don’t like it, don’t download it then. Imagine if nobody was subbing the anime you wanted to watch. How desperate would you be for this so called ”bad quality” release?
In my opinion we should be a bit more thankful to those who are willing to waste 3-4 hours a week without expecting anything in return. All that just so we can watch our anime’s.

January 21st, 2009 at 11:14 pm
Silverprestige, the average time we put into a fansub is ~9 hours, not 3-4. LOL.
January 22nd, 2009 at 12:10 am
That’s 9 hours that shouldn’t get lengthened by meaningless dribble guys, the more time they spend replying to nonsense the more time it takes everything else.
January 22nd, 2009 at 8:31 am
I’ll Direct Download it and seed later on torrent….please do the same..the torrent has only 1 seeder
January 22nd, 2009 at 2:15 pm
Those 9 hours tells us something about Chihiro’s efficiency. I’ve seen groups who were able to sub a perfectly fine episode in 3-4 hours. But I guess some people don’t mind slacking off a bit, right?

THIS IS THE RAW FOR OVA 04 IKKITOUSEN
January 22nd, 2009 at 10:12 pm
I’m sure they found that ages ago, now if you provided a dd link for it that would be helping…
January 23rd, 2009 at 7:41 pm
Touma, Kana = 107. XDDDDD
January 23rd, 2009 at 11:49 pm
