Space Opera and SF sadly are not that popular.

Aero just released the first episode.

Aero just subbed it, but this is from their website:

Quote:

Well, it’s a surprise release. Seeing that none has subbed this, we’ll be taking it up, most probably. After we started on this episode, we realised why none has taken this project up so far. Let me list out the cons.

# Complex sentences
# We aren’t familiar with sci-fi/mecha
# Nobility speech makes it difficult
# There aren’t many sources out there with information regarding this series
# The raws… yes they’re good but good enough to be released in 704×396.
# Oh and did I tell you that I don’t like mecha/sci-fi?

But all the other staff do. :P

Oh yeah, and they translated from Chinese.

I suggest that if you can wait, you should wait, another release is going to be uploaded later today. And at least you shouldn't let the sub hamper your opinion of the show, if the sub turns out to be bad.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! I can finally watch this without going "what the heck are they talking about?" in their long dialogues ^^; *hurries to download*

Another release as one from another group ?

aldw · 2008-10-13, 09:15

More space opera scifi is always good, will definitely be keeping an eye on this one...

I suspect come next week, we'll actually have like 3 or 4 groups on this.

So I'm downloading Aero's, but translated from Chinese..."complex sentences"...inexperience with nobility speech....bad video quality...little information on Tytania...it's bound to be a bad sub. I just don't want other people's opinions of the show to go down because of 'bad dialogue'.

Shiroth · 2008-10-13, 09:49

Well, you should have checked the subs out before saying people should wait for another sub, because i'm watching it now and it's not a bad job. I'd say they're fine for anyone who's been waiting to experience this show.

FRS · 2008-10-13, 09:54

At worse i'll do some sub comparaison later if/when other group release something.

Well that's fine too, I'm just using my best judgement. If the subs are fine then everyone go right ahead.

Blaat · 2008-10-13, 11:30

I don't think the subs are bad, but I don't think they're great either they'll do fine until (if?) there's a better group.

Having said that I absolutely loved the first episode for me it's definitely the best show of the season so far and I don't think there will be anything to beat it.

Tell me about it. I felt a building-up rage over no subs of Kurozuka.

Generally any shows that requires thinking tends to get sidelined or marginalized. Even Hollywood do so.

SF/Opera tends to demand thinking audience. Tytania has quite sophisticated politics which requires a watcher to know little bit about history of aristocracy and democracy. Afterall the novels was written by a history graduate.

The novelist seems to favour royalty/feudalistic society and made a lot of subtle criticism on representative democracy (especially in Legend of Galactic Heroes). Here in Tytania you can see it again. The Federation was shown as corrupt and bloated democracy which requires strong, arch monarchistic type of man to topple it.

Sorry to ask but how far did you did dig into the novels ?
As much i understood Ep 1 there was no detail about of the government opposing the Titania clan.

Nerroth · 2008-10-13, 14:17

Hmm...

I just hope that at least one set of subs will be in avi format - my Archos player doesn't like mkvs.

FLCL · 2008-10-13, 14:18

i just watched the chinese subs

mandarin comprehension ftfw

Originally the mankind's settlement of space is united under aegis of Interstellar Federation but Tytania clan seceded from it. They were conferred aristocratic titles and won over old Federation to turn it into Empire. Well some of it.

The other opposing side is called Euria.

That's all I remembered. My Japanese is not that good.

DonQuigleone · 2008-10-13, 14:54

I wonder how they'll translate the noble Japanese? Is there Noble English? I suppose there's alwyas the royal we.

Kaioshin Sama · 2008-10-13, 19:19

Saw the first episode and loved it. Here's my blog entry on it if anyone is interested.

I'm thinking there's a possible chance now that I might pick this one up. It's low profile enough that I can get away with blogging about it and not ending up in a fight over the show.
