Here is Nogizaka 09. Thanks for all of the feedback on Special AIDS. We might sing another song in the future. 😉 Not too many references in this one. The preview is a Onegai Sensei reference.

We usually don’t do multi-releases but all three of them just happened to finish at the same time.

Nogizaka:
Again, not many references this episode:

• Pentagon & Mossad
• The whole preview thing was a reference to Legend of the Galactic Heroes ( UC, RC, etc.)

Negima:
Long story short, Akatmatsu Ken love~ Also, this took way longer than expected due to a desire in good video quality, we re-encoded this like 10+/- times (crashes, fixes, etc.). This isn’t done by our normal encoder, but rather an anonymous friend. Props to him.

Love Selection:
Gunma, k.

I lied, Nogizaka 07 is out first. SA 20 will be out soon hopefully. Nogizaka 07 was really funny this week. Enjoy!

There really aren’t much references this episode:

• Male Shana and a fusion of different famous Mecha’s. OTL

• There’s a Mamiko Noto poster on Yuuto’s wall.

• Last line “Attacking your heart, directly!” is from Narue no Sekai

That’s about it -v-

Here is Nogizaka 06. There are many references in this episode, so I hope you guys are otaku enough to know most/all of them. We’ll update the bored section some time later with a list of references.

edit: Dom wanted me to add pictures, so here you go.

Hi guise, here are some references that you might not get (not going to post obvious ones),

• The guide by Nobunaga is an imitation of the guide being seen by Amuro Ray while entering the cockpit of his Gundam in Mobile Suit Gundam.
• When they were lining up for buying the doujin, Yuuto asked Haruka why she wanted to buy the doujin from A Cat Bus Stop, Haruka replied because she liked the artist. In fact, the artist is the one who drew Haruka. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaa -> click on his personal website… and mind = blown )
• The person who Nanami dressed up as was actually Taro Aso , he is a famous politician, also is known to be a manga fan. He was seen reading Rozen Maiden at the airport, thus earning his nickname ‘Rozen Aso’.
• The day this episode aired was actually the start of the real C74 in Tokyo.

There are more references in this episode, but those are the obvious ones, so I won’t name them.

Thanks to this episode, I was able to get back to my college sleep cycle (going to sleep at 5am, yes that’s a good thing). Like I said in the previous update, we switched to a transport stream source and the picture quality is much better now. We had to increase the file size for the h264 version to 200MB in order to accommodate the bitrate needed to encode it. This shouldn’t be too much of a problem since this will be a 13 episode series (I think). Anyway, please enjoy episode 05.

As for Itazura 18, we hammered out the script tonight thanks to the help of our medical expert, ilikefood. I’m hoping we can get it QC’ed and encoded by tomorrow evening, but no promises.

Oh and one more thing. We switched over to Nyaatorrents tracker since people were having problems with Anirena. Let us know if you have any problems with Nyaatorrents.

Incestmango wanted me to mention that Natsucomi in Episode 4 should have been Summer Comiket.

Thanks for the feedback on the torrent trackers. We’ll go with multi-tracking next time.

Luckily for us this week, there was no typesetting to do. Anyway, enjoy. There were a few funny references in this episode.

xess edit: And in case you were wondering who Ueda Kana is… I guess she’s a very famous voice actress. You might know her from Maria-sama ga Miteru (Yumi), Fate/Stay Night (Tohsaka Rin) and I guess Magical Lyrical Nanoha (one of the main girls -_-). If you follow our shows, she also voiced Fumika from Shigofumi and is currently voicing Naha Midori from Telepathy Shoujo Ran. Oh, and of course, she’s also doing the maid Nanami from Nogizaka Haruka.

Saoen here with another release from the depths of our staff channel. I havent watched this episode yet but if its anything like Episode 1 im very excited and will probably blow a load as soon as it hits the OP, but lets not go into details.

Anyways download this, watch it, or ill kill you =D

Notes from xess: In keeping with our principle of providing reasonable subs in reasonable time, we’ve listened to your feedback and tried to make improvements. Though sometimes we kinda accidentally forget stuff.

Either way, the OP karaoke should be a little more visible now, except for the kanji because no one reads that. The dialogue fonts are also now a tad bigger. I was also more thorough with my check this time, so that it’ll maintain a closer feel to our other releases. We also added some QC. And I think we changed the encoding settings a bit. I guess that’s all. Hope you enjoy the episode.

OMGZ! After ten gruelling days, it’s finally here. I don’t think we’ve ever wasted so much time on a single episode before. (well, we have. Hime-sama was up to like v23 on the scripts or something)

The title translates to, The Secret of Nogizaka Haruka. And you’ve guessed it, the story is about Haruka’s secret. Despite her high-class princess-like outward appearance, she’s really a closet otaku. I suppose this would be a romantic comedy, and one of the higher profile shows of the season.

You may be wondering how we’re able to do so many shows this season. Well, that’s because we’ve acquired a new translator, IncestMango (I know, it’s a terrible name), who’s very enthused about doing this show. Some of the staff, namely tun, just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to do a show about an otaku girl.

So, please enjoy the first episode. Hopefully the other episodes wouldn’t take such a fail amount of time to do, as we’ve been pretty slow as of late.
