And the slumbering behemoth known as Saizen awakens from its slumber and sets off on a frenzied rampage across the modern fansubbing landscape (Translation: We’ve picked up a spring season show!). So we present to you our newest offering, Attack on Titan, which is a visual feast of stunning scenery and gory bloodlust. In short, we’re jumping on the bandwagon here (in case you hadn’t noticed) but giants battering down walls and stomping on little tiny humans was too good to pass up on.
How far we’ll get into this series, we’re not actually sure. With the way streaming rules all these days, we were pretty surprised this was overlooked – but we’ve heard rumblings from the Funimation camp suggesting that they may have already bought the license. If this does turn out to be our one and only release of this series, please at least bask in the glory of the first episode as subbed by Saizen (and check out our nifty kara too!).
Looks like Funimation and Crunchyroll have finally announced their license and they’re starting their simulcasts on Sunday, apparently. We’ve released this episode as we were already pretty much done when the announcement was made, but sadly, this will be our one and only release. Thanks to everyone who got really hyped up about this, only to fall at the first hurdle, and a special thanks to triviper for putting in so much time to add all the bells and whistles that would have made for a great subbed series. Sadly, the attack ends here when we’ve barely begun.
got my hopes up that this series will get a proper sub. and then despair.
Yeah, it’s a little disappointing that late licensing suckerpunched us (it doesn’t happen very often), but as a group, we have complete confidence that funi and CR will provide the kind of quality translations this show deserves. But yeah, this is a taster of what could have been.
How come you wanted to do this when there are 3-4 fansub groups already?
What about something like Danchi Tomou instead?
Cuz we wanted to try and do something new and good which wasn’t simulcasted.
Your honor-bound attitude regarding this matter does you credit, Saizen. I remove my battle helmet and salute you. *Removes battle helmet and salutes.* *Ends salute.* I’m sure you’ll find something else worthy of subbing that will get your time honored, quality treatment.
Sorry guys, I made a mistake when I rendered the OP, so the karaoke is only half the real karaoke. It seems like we won’t be doing a v2 to fix that unfortunately.
Perhaps I will upload it somewhere for those that are interested in a week or so.
