ok, sorry for the long time with no update!
Obviously, the whole bluray scheme has kind of fallen apart. Our old translator (who had also wanted to encode the videos) basically has gone through what our bros/femalebros at GG have called “an immense parade of hilarious drama and creepiness”, which is something coming from them. I will spare you the delicious details, but please take pleasure in the notion that they ARE quite, quite delicious.
Long story short though, he’s not working on Mazinger… ever? Yes, probably not ever. And while we could conceivably convince our series encoder to encode Mazinger and then we could try to find a translator who would be willing to do all this shit, I really can’t see it happening. Of course, if people want to rip our subs and do it themselves they are certainly free too. You can find the blurays on the usual Japanese FTPs at this point. They’re an upscale so you’ll probably want to scale it down.
Anyway, seeing as how that was our one translator who was willing to put up with my anime demands, I don’t see Gattai releasing any other stuff any time soon. Besides, there isn’t much we really WANT to translate that nobody else is. So… yeah. Later kids! As usual, though, if you wanna chill with what’s left of Gattai, we’re a sub team out of ADTRW http://forums.somethingawful.com/forumdisplay.php?forumid=27 so if you want to join and hang with us, feel free.

I know man, me too, me too
C’est la vie. It was a nice trip. Thanks for your hard work, Gattai. Hopefully, someone will be able to find the BDrips (or DVDrips) and share them. The important ones haven’t been released yet. We’ll probably see if Great Hen comes to happen in the last one. By the way, would you be so kind to tell us where we could find information to use these Japanese FTPs? I’ve been trying to get them from OpenNap with no luck and I would like to give a try to any other source to get them.
pardon, I didn’t mean FTP, I meant P2P. And they’re well outside my realm of experience.
Oh! I thought there were other sources besides P2P.
Well, those who know how to use OpenNap, I can confirm that there are indeed Blu-ray-rips, DVD-rips and Blu-ray isos. Your best bet to get them is there. In Share there appear to be only BD-isos.
you want to join and hang with us, feel free….
You lie! It cost 10 bux
you can feel free
but it isn’t :v
What kind of translation demands would you happen to have as regards translating for Shin Mazinger BDs?
Lol typical gattai promises something then fails to deliver with one of the most pathetic excuses ever. oh well I’m waiting for Spain dvds
Thanks for your hard work, really enjoyed the Mazinger release and really thank you very much to all of you!!
For those who really want to have the BD rips, I would recommend you to get the BD ISOs from Share. They are more easily available there than in OpenNap. Or even better yet. Wait a few more months and get the Spanish release of the series by Selecta Visión. That would require even less effort than the BD ISOs. I can tell you for sure, because I’ve tried to download the ISOs and is a real pain in the butt because of the full filesize.
Anything about the new Mazinkaiser SKL?
