Because popular opinion on Sup Forums is that fansubbing is dead, which means less people go into fansubbing, which means the fansubbing groups are running out of members, which means that everything is up to a single autistic asshole.

It's hard to care when it's simulcasted.

Mezashite will finish Aikatsu Stars just like they finished Aikatsu.

No simulcast for StB II.

Why did you remake the thread? I already fucking answered you - there is no "anymore," fansubbers have always been fickle and drop-happy.

>I already fucking answered you
Oh, well that solves it, then, huh. Shut down all discussion because some self-important little twat answered the conversation!!!

What is there to discuss? Do you think this thread is going to galvanize fansubbers across the internet into finishing their projects? Fuck outta here.

>I'm going to remake a barely-active thread to "continue the conversation" when there's nothing to discuss
Don't.
>answered the conversation!!!
Please stop typing like a middleschooler, thanks.

finfags was waiting for the lyrics for the songs in the last episode, which is understandable.

Because fansubbed anime isn't watched when it's already been licensed and, in most of the cases, simulcasted. So they just drop it because nobody cares about what they're doing.

Didn't TCs subs finish F.A.Girl?

And StB II is still being subbed, as we can see in your image.

2 months+ delay for an episode.

That's not "Why don't fansubbers finish the shows they start anymore?," that's "Why aren't fansubbers fast anymore?," which, if you're serious, is a hell of an amusing question. Being a single episode behind on a slow-release OVA doesn't even register on the scale of fansub delays.

Who knows if these shows will EVER get finished. You can see that it's been two years since the last Yoru no Yatterman episode was subbed, but apparently they're "still working on it." What's the difference between being two years late and dropped? It seems that most of these groups just stop working on their projects as soon as the anime stops airing on a weekly basis. It's already been a month since the last AtZ or FAG fansubs.

>Who knows if these shows will EVER get finished
>these shows
I'm talking about StB specifically, user. They have literally one episode left and released the second-to-last one this week, there's a 99.9% chance it'll be finished. Yoru no Yatterman, on the other hand, is clearly just dropped for all intents and purposes, which has also been common practice for as long as fansubs have existed. You're complaining that water is wet, and acting like it's news.

Also, going back to , Yatterman was simulcasted. The only one of those that wasn't was StB II, and again, it's almost sure to be finished.

Isn't Cthuko dead? I liked their subs for hana no uta but forgot about them.

There are still NO complete softsubs for Yoru no Yatterman.

Raws, hardsubs and Aegisub all exist.

If you want softsubs, just do it yourself.

I'm not even sure what this has to do with this. Are you just venting every complaint you have about subbing or what? There were simulcast hardsubs, people watched them, it wasn't lucky enough to get picked up by a retiming group, and that was that.

I want Crunchyroll age Neo-Sup Forums to leave.
Back in 2008 we were lucky if we got the latest episode of a current anime being subbed by a speedsub group within the week. OVAs taking months was a given.

>look mom I posted it again
Nice spam.

Want me to tell you how I know you're not an oldfag? In 2008, I remember we got Chihiro "speedsubs" for Code Geass R2 within about 8 hours of the episode airing. Then, after about 12-14 hours we got "decent" subs from Eclipse, and if we waited a bit longer, then we got "better" subs from gg. And many other, smaller groups would follow that.

>posting a continuation of a thread that died in the middle of the night is "spam"
Yeah, no.

Not him, but gg was the quick one, that was their whole selling point. They were the ones who pushed speedsubs under the twelve-hour mark.

All three of those groups would be considered speedsubs by today's standards when it takes an "active" group two fucking months to sub one episode and the smaller groups just stop subbing a show when episodes stop coming out, regardless of which episode they're still on themselves. But Chihiro did tend to be faster than gg by a few hours.

you're getting free cartoons, if you care so much do it yourself

>speedsubs by today's standards
"Speedsubs" literally aren't a thing now, user. There is no fucking reason to have speed-fansubs (fast subs that you watch regardless of quality, just to get it done) when you have simulcasts.

> an "active" group two fucking months to sub one episode and the smaller groups just stop subbing a show when episodes stop coming out
Yet again, this isn't new at all. These existed alongside the groups that actually finished shows - like that image says, remember Nanoha StrikerS? Or see pic related for a sampling of Geass R2 groups. There's just vastly fewer fansubs overall now, so the ones that actually finish it are rarer too, and again, the speedsubs don't exist at all because there is zero purpose whatsoever, they're made completely redundant by HS.

I wouldn't waste the words user, OP can't accept that we're in a different era now

It's hard to keep interested in a show that is objectively boring and just loses its value as the episode counter raises and they start to introduce more padding scenes and boring unmemorable dialogue.

The things you posted are just HS-edits though. I wouldn't call them fansubs. Once anime starts becoming memorable again. The fansubs will happen.

>a series is good enough to sub for 9 episodes, but just not good enough to squeeze out the work to finish those last three

More like they squeezed out 9 episodes. When they lost interest long before.

Why did they waste all the effort? All people want is an archivable video that has softsubs and chapter markers. An unfinished series is useless.

>Released 11 episodes of Frame Arms Girl
>Stalled the last episode
Explain this one.

Because they thought that it might be interesting enough but it just got worse.

>All people want is an achievable video that has softsubs and chapter markers
That's all YOU want. And you can just get the rest of the episodes elsewhere then. It's not like they're BD releases anyways. So you don't have a 'quality' argument to make either.

Stalling implies they'll finish it no? Ask them why they stalled it.

I'm still waiting for Cthuko for their god damn Shirobako second cour BDs. I want to at least archive the show, fucking hell.

I believe they said that they're waiting for the lyrics of the songs in the last episode.

Why did KamiFS stop subbing Ajin S2? I'm still waiting for them to finish so I can watch the rest of the series. They stopped at a critical cliffhanger too.

Remember when people on Sup Forums were trying to watch Jinsei, but FFF's subs (the only available subs, since there was no simulcast) were about 3 months "delayed" and we all assumed that they dropped it so some user made his own subs- but then FFF released their sub about a week later? You sillyfucks just need to be more patient. You shouldn't expect people who sub anime to actually LIKE anime enough to WANT to sub it.

>Shirobako / Cthuko
Just get Jyōji, CTR or LNS?

The only reason FFF came back to the project was because Sup Forums threatened their monopoly.

>Do shows which are simulcasted
>Gradually fell behind for whatever reason
Meanwhile some shows without simulcast still left unsubbed or have really bad subs

Just go with Crunchyroll rips of Horriblesubs or learn the language while we still have access to TV streams.

FFF (and most cartel subs for that matter) only release stuff when you poke their corpse hard enough. Otherwise, they 1-2 episodes and [don't] drop their shows.

I know. Why do you think Hatsuyuki finally got off their asses after 2 months to release StB II ep 7? I popped into their IRC channel several times, and magically we now have a subbed episode less than a week later.

I used to do it to Ryuk for Kuma Miko releases. I might've killed Chyuu though.

Without fansubs, wouldn't watching Ova episodes for mediocre single-cour anime be virtually impossible?

I don't want to live in a world where I can't even watch the ecchi hot springs OVA episode for my shitty action battle harem.

Because Sup Forums and Crunchyroll killed fansubbing

Crunchyroll isn't doing Strike the Blood II.
