Thanks! Yeah, we try to go for meaning over literal translation, and we also hate when random words are untranslated, but with tamage we couldn't figure out a short way to translate what it means. The Bison joke was just impossible yeah, sorry about that. I think our next episode is turning out better though on these fronts.

The hardest part of translating GCCX is bridging the culture gap and sometimes you just have to go with what gets the same concept across to the viewer rather than the meaning. This is especially true with the jokes and memes. Keeping in mind that you are trying to entertain people with a comedy show helps.

Good luck! I hope your team finds it as rewarding as we have!

Personally I don't really mind either way of translation (literal or substituting for something that works in English). If it's literal translation, then maybe some kind of note explaining the joke/saying would be nice, but that'll increase the burden a lot on the translators and typesetters. In any case, it's just wonderful that we're getting more translated GCCX, that's the main point!

Considering the quality of their previous release, I don't think that's a good thing.

Sounds like he's been antagonizing GooseCanyon on Twitter too, he's bragging about getting blocked by them.

He's a 4channer going by his comments on the ep so this is hardly surprising unfortunately.

Yeah, blocked him because most of his twitter is racist/homophobic garbage. Almost happy to learn the quality of his releases are low, though it is sad that it decreases the likelihood of someone else doing them.

ZombieKabuto released Captain Tsubasa 2-parter subs earlier and the quality was really shoddy and full of memes & random cursewords and seems like the same thing continues with Super-C. I mean, I love GCCX translations, but I can probably safely just skip the releases from him from now on. GooseCanyon's subs had a totally different level of professionalism compared to this guy.

To be fair, the second part of ZombieKabuto's Captain Tsubasa 2 sub was a pretty solid improvement over the first. I can't speak to the guys attitude on twitter (I don't use it), or his attack on GooseCanyon's /excellent/ first effort, but we'll give Super-C a watch. Especially since I suggested it as a next effort on Nyaa.

That said, we're eagerly awaiting GooseCanyon's next effort. Though we watch the raws, getting translations on Famionaire was a real treat! I wouldn't want to run with Kan either.

His twitter is disgusting. I wouldn't be shocked if he manages to find a way to slip the n-word into the episode somehow.

Sub-par subs from a sub-par human being? I'll pass.

I took a look at his Twitter feed, and I've seen the N word at least twice, so yeah. I'd be wary of his work if this is how he presents himself.

On a different note, if anyone else working on subs for gccx wants to contact us on our twitter (@CanyonGoose) so we could make sure we're not working on the same episodes, we'd really appreciate it.

Well according to the file their group name is "VR is FAGS", so I think I have a good guess of the level of chan culture and respect for human beings to expect.
[Edit: NM that appears to be the raw provider; the link upthread is to that rather than the sub.]

I think I got a message saying I can't contact that account when I tried to DM (also, I think it's @CanyonGoose ?)

Either way, I've gotten 15 minutes done so far of Osomatsu-kun Hachamecha Gekijyou but was taking a bit of a break due to a lot of self pre-testing for the JLPT. My goal for that one is to get it released by the end of the year since I'm doing it in my free time.
Can't imagine anyone else wanting to do that one though, haha.

Yeah, they'll be there, I want to say Tanii mans the booth. Search #gccxTGS on Twitter for a look at all the merch, but this is one of their exclusive items:

Went in 2014, there's too much people in TGS, too much waiting to get anywhere, probably never going again.

The (tiny) GCCX booth was a highlight though, got a picture with Abe and somebody helped me to buy merchandise as you had to fill an all Japanese order form to buy.

If I can make a request, I've been hoping that the Ninja Gaiden III episode (243, season 21) would get subbed. They are on a cruise ship for that episode but the details escape me, but I love all kinds of special travel episodes.

Travel episodes are great. Also, it's Ninja Gaiden.

And thanks for your work. I haven't watched any of your episodes yet, because I just stared rewatching the all episodes chronologically, but it's great to get new quality translations.
